  Simon, I disagree with your interpretation, but your the boss!
  

  Also, the majority of those that leave the cult become better people, less judgmental, more tolerant and contribute more to society. Bonsai

  Simonsays: The difference between a JW and a hypocrite is that one lies for his religion, the other by it. You are soooo full of sh---t.......Go preach it somewhere else....James Nixon
  

  For all the posturing here, that’s all you people have. Making derogatory connotations and insults. You want to voice a mass disassociation, yet you’re accomplishing nothing. Not that it will really matter but the hatred rendered here will only get your brilliant idea tossed in the trash. Show some initiative with intelligence.

  You people claim, anyone can come in this forum with freedom, while you insult, belittle them and yet you call it less judgmental and tolerant. Do you people read what you’re shoveling? But you are correct, there’s no need for none of you to reform, just take your hypocrite friends that are still inside with you. That was my point. Voice yourselves loud and clear so not just the WTS will take notice, but God himself will. Now there’s the rub.

  You people have the last word, enjoy feeling good about putting a negative in my comments. That should show real people lurking here your true colors and distortions, remember you speak volumes, but of what? That’s the jest of it.

  Has a date been set yet to send in our letters? Please ignore the troll and let's get this done.onegentwogroups

  From one troll to a hypocrite: 2 Peter 2:20-21

  Believer's bible commentary

  2:20 verses 20-22 refer, not to the false teachers themselves, but to their victims. They are people who had reformed but who had not been born again. Through partial knowledge of Christ and of Christian principles, they had turned from a life of sin and begun a moral house cleaning.

  Then they come under the influence of false teachers who mock puritanical virtue and crusade for liberation from moral inhibitions. They become involved again in the very sins from which they had been temporarily delivered. As a matter of fact, they sink lower than before, because now that religious restraints are gone, there is nothing to hold them back. So it is true that latter state is worse than the first.

  2:21 the greater a person’s privilege, the greater his responsibility. The more a person knows, Christian standards, the more obligated he is to live up to them. It would be better never to have known God’s holy requirements, than having known them to turn back to the filth of the world.

  Most construction projects halting, Magazines being cut in half (again), Bethelites being laid off (again), Special Pioneers getting the boot, Remote Translation Offices closing, JW Broadcasting pleas for "valuable things"...

  Surely, Jehovah is smiling upon his organization and pouring out his blessings! Cappytan
  

  There will be more adjustments. However, something you people failed to understand or have always misunderstood, it is by design for the last days. Just because Bible students and know Jehovah’s Witnesses have been proclaiming it for over a century, that time is meaningless to God with he’s own internal clock. Preparation is now the theme, its no longer LEARNING and TEACHING alone. Just like the WTS is asking ALL former members to repent, its only due to those that have come to know God personally have more to lose than someone that never knew God at all. The majority of you know that.

  Isn’t that what the WTS stipulated back in 2013? Have you people not heard the phenomenon of trumpet like sounds coming from, to what NASA has said in 2013, are coming from the SKY? Look around you, it doesn’t that a genius to read signs. It never has.Can someone say something definite? of course not. When Gods day comes, I rather have my pants on rather than off, wouldn't you?
  

  The problem has always been the impatient people that need to physically see something to believe. How many times did that happen to Moses? The people saw the miracles of God directly, but still didn’t believe.

  The person that suggests they know the GB and what goes on at the Bethel House is strait up lying. Spiritual instructions is something the GB will never divulge other than to interpret it and have it placed in writing as ancient times with the scrolls. The difference is, back then God used Prophets to speak directly to the people where in our time it’s done through the slave class.

  FOAD: freemindfade

  Psychology 101

  FOAD that speaks volumes to the person saying it rather than, to the one receiving your pervasive rant.

  Cappytan lolz
  

  But you are correct, you people are laughable.

  Now I know for sure this thread is awesome when one of the preeminent cult apologists shows up

  We must be doing something right folks freeminfade
  

  no that’s one of the reasons I join in when I need a good laugh.

  No! No! Let the blind lead the blind. Those souls will be on their heads come judgment day. When the follower here explains how they were duped by hatred, God can answer, ignorance is no defensive for the crime commented against me. You people call the WTS and JW’s a cult while you advocate cult like traits within this forum and your own rank and file, psychology anyone.

  EXJW’s and Opposers, you claim being happy while still being imprisoned within you own condemnation. Pick today's date for your senseless hypothetical, or have you lost touch with reality, you can’t figure what to say anymore.

  Funny! Your attempt to teach something you haven’t understood yourself. LEARN FIRST! BEFORE YOU TEACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  However, your ideology is good for let’s say, a born again Christian.

  I’m glad to read the majority of you have set aside any critical thinking in this time of pain of having to endure the hardship of seeing a love one pass. The process if not equal is more to bear than the solemn thought of having a suffering loved one receive final peace and tranquility through eternal sleep.

  For those of us that still believe in God’s promise will have comfort of resurrection. Those of us that have lost that faith can simply sympathize to those with our individual lose. Human empathy is a desired aspect of human nature to be achieved at this time.

  We care about JW issues precisely because we were JWs.

  Also, Prime Minister Abbott's actions do not necessarily reflect that of all Australians.Village Idiot.

  Then that would be the operative word “WERE” as if. The remainder of your argument is nonsensical, therefore to wit the actions do not necessarily reflect that of ALL JW's. But to those Australians that do agree with their Prime Minister Abbott would therefore agree to silencing abuse, and harboring as you people put it pedophiles. So where does it end. You can give all the negative points you want, but that doesn’t mean you’re thinking.

  It’s interesting how the legal system works in Australia. It reminds me of hypocrisy just like all those that pretend to care about a worldwide problem only because it involves JW’s, as if they were the only ones. Why didn’t you ask the RC rep if they were Catholic, Orthodox Christian, Muslim, Jew, or Protestant. The mindset by exclusion, is it rational? Sane people ask.

  For the Australian Government it’s an entirely different beast. While they seem to care in one hand, the Prime Minister ABBOTT signed a NEW LAW that will punish staff in detection centers for asylum seekers if they speak out about abuse. Ironically one happens to be SEXUAL ABUSE.

  I think you people have beaten this RC stuff to its end, since this is not something that happened 30 years ago as someone ignorant enough not to think, but for Australia has been ongoing since last year. 2014

  The origin of the name and masthead illustration of The Watchtower

  by Gorbatchov in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  thanks to the great "watchtower history" blog with historical information about the pre- and early bible students years, i became today aware of the origine of the name the watchtower and the masthead illustration in front of the old magazines.. in c.t.

  russell's younger days, his mother and other relatives died and were buried on the family plot at the allegheny cemetery.. it must have been a defining moment voor the young ctr.

  look at his inspiration to choose the name and masthead of his magazine.

  While I’m not in a position to advise a half million modern day Bible Students their making up stories because there’s and old goat that suggest they’ve been lying for 15 years, would probably be simpler to achieve rather than having scumbags distort the truth in the name of profit.

  As I told you in another thread, you will never impress me as a historian and even less as a human being. The proof is in the pudding, you’ve been exposed by me too many times. Its ironic bible students lying for 15 years while people here have been doing the same. You have the last word, so we don’t hijack this thread any further.
