if it was entirely down to satan surely the word 'good' wouldnt come into it. as according to jw's satan had 'no good in him'. that one was a manslayer when he began, and he did not stand fast in the truth, because truth is not in him. -John 8:31,40, 44.

Isn't It Eye Opening When You Realize How STUPID This Religion Is?
by minimus inthe meetings and publications are somewhat constant.
"exert yourself".
"stay away from the internet".

Eye opening certainly. i remember being at the meetings about 10 years ago (i was only about 12 or 13 at the time) and hearing the gasp of the 'brother and sisters' when the elder on the platform was telling us how someone had done over a 100 hours a month in the ministry. at the time i was impressed as i didnt know any better now i can see through the cock and bull nonsense.

The President
by lime05 insince the jehovah's witness organization currently rejects most of the teachings of its founder charles taze russell and since they also reject "judge" joseph franklin rutherford, who succeeded russell as president from 1916 - 1942, how can we be sure that in 25 more years, jehovah's witnesses won't also reject the current president, milton g. henschel (1992 - present), as they did russell and rutherford?

Anointed seem to think they have special POWERS
by justice for all inever notice this about the so called anointed?
the ones i've met seem to think they have these powers especially with the scriptures and some brothers and sisters treat them as such.
i always thought this was weird and somewhat superstitious.

If a jw claims to be of the anointed how does the organization know they are not lying

Why would God give mankind the Bible centuries ago and yet they would have to wait until the 1870s before they had someone to begin to help them understand it? Where and what was the Holy Spirit supposed to be doing during the interim?
Exactly. russel started zions watchtower in 1879 to promote his doctrines. people were drawn to russells sensational end time predictions and the organization grew.

Most Jehovah's Witnesses are nice people and sincere truth seekers but they've just been brainwashed by false hope and told by the wts they need to be become one to please God and gain salvation. If only they would open their minds and realise that non-jw's are not 'in the world' and we are no futher away from God than they are.

Throughout the Millennium, a wonderful miracle will be taking place. For mankind, it will be perhaps the most thrilling aspect of Christ’s Thousand Year Reign. Jehovah will direct his Son to apply the benefits of the ransom sacrifice to each and every faithful and obedient man and woman. By that means, all sin will be removed and mankind will be raised to perfection. -1 John 2:2; Revelation 21:1-4.
Perfection! What will it mean? It will mean a return to life the way Adam and Eve enjoyed it before they sinned against Jehovah God. Physically, mentally, emotionally, morally, spiritually- in every way imaginable- perfect humans will fully meet God’s standards.
Perfect humans will face one final test. At the end of the Millennium, Satan and his demons will be released from the abyss for a short time and will be permitted to make a final effort to turn people away from Jehovah. Some will put wrong desires above love of God, but this rebellion will be cut short. Jehovah will execute these selfish ones along with Satan and all his demons. All wrongdoers will then be gone forever. -Revelation 20:7-10.
So if all sin will be removed and mankind will be raised to perfection during Christ’s Thousand Year Reign how come Some will put wrong desires above love of God at the end of the Millennium when Satan and his demons will be released from the abyss for a short time. Perfect humans will fully meet God’s standards. Are we being led to believe that putting wrong desires above love of God is fully meeting God’s standards.
