Would you create a chessboard to look at, or play with?

by DavidChristopher in

wouldn't it be nessesary to have a worthy adversary to get the most out of the chessboard you made?.

is that why there are two "deaths"?

so the serpent and our father could both be "right"?

DavidChristopher

Good....when we are all gods together, instead of over one another.

That popped in my head today out of the blue.

I still say there is nothing wrong with "wanting to be like God". What???? Should I want to be like a FROG?

Did Jesus and the serpent have the same job?

by DavidChristopher in

did the serpent put himself in harms way to "free" us and open new information, bringing us to his level, or was he trying to get worship like the "elders" today.

what would happen, if he told us to follow jesus, obey his commands, and seek after jesus?

the "elders" don't want that, would the "serpent"?

I would say some people would have some explaining to do. Can I get some feedback?

Theocracy & Slavery...

by professor in

jw
friends

as you may know, jehovah's witnesses are not as much of a religion as they are a political government.. witnesses are anti-religion.

(remember judge rutherford's slogan: "religion is a snare and a racket!"....).

this "watchtower society" is an organization based on planet earth and living independent of established government.. jehovah's witnesses are based on a theocratic government.. this is a top-down control organization.

DavidChristopher

What he said......!

I don't want to be a slave either.......

Jesus had a Twin Proof!!!

by skyman in

judas thomas is known to the world as jesus brother.

most all bible scholars have no problem with this, what is of interest to me is a matter of controversy the translation of didymos used before his name in the greek manuscripts didymos literally translates into english as twin.

if you take the bible as the true gospel of gods hand then jesus had a twin brother.

DavidChristopher

Thanks to all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does the Watchtower Society Monitor this Board???

by integ in

maybe this has been addressed before, but after reading certain comments about people being "outed", i wonder if the wts really monitors this site?

if so, to what extent?

or is it just individual elders etc.?.

DavidChristopher

How can they be "spying" if we have nothing to hide? Wouldn't it be called a form of "worship" keeping up with what we are doing? They can be the Papartzie if they choose to in my opinion. If we ask Jesus questions, are we "spying" or "worshipping" Him? Pretty simple to me......

I would love to hear your thoughts though.....

Do JWs take Genesis literally?

by undercover in

as i grew up as a jw it seemed that we accepted genesis was a literal account with the only question being how long a creative day was.

for the longest time, as best as i can recall, a creative day was considered a thousand years long, based on the ole "a thousand years is as a day to jehovah" rule.. somewhere though, it seems that there was some waffling on how long a creative day was.

especially since science was showing that the earth was millions of years old.. since i've faded i wonder, do jws today consider genesis as a literal account of how things were created, even if they can't explain the exact length of a creative day?.

DavidChristopher

Ok, Got to say something here....What was Adam and supposed to be like? What was so wrong with wanting to be like God? Ever think the serpent might have been put there to HELP them become like God? Or were they meant to be scared, unquestioning, obedient, slaves, robots? Or children of God? Was the serpent wanting them to be equal to him, or under Him? (Like religous leaders want today). That is the question....Did he want to be over them, rule them, or did he want to feed them ASAP to become up to his level. Does Jehovah want us to obey, out of fear, or by an informed choice? Genesis, holds a great deal of insight into how our Father does things. Just ask Jesus.......

THE NEW WORLD TRANSLATION & WITNESSES (DEMONISM, LIES, IMMORALITY) JUDGMENT

by societycalledmealiar in

jehovah's witnesses new world translation falsehood!

this article will use god's word the holy bible to show that the new world translation used by jehovah's witnesses is a lie.

this "bible" was written by the governing body of jehovah's witnesses to deceive people and keep them locked into the belief system of this cultlike religion.

DavidChristopher

Wow that was eye opening.......I had no idea either......A witness would not get past the first two words.

what a diehard replies if the phrase "brainwashing" is used

by stillajwexelder in

i have heard quite a few witnesses when confronted with "you are brain-washed" merely reply " well in satans world, my brain was so bad it needed washing, so i am glad i got brain-washed" - difficult when one is confronted with an attitude like that

I called the society's # 845-306-1100 today to ask some questions. The operator said she had hundreds of calls and couldn't talk. Told me to call back tomorrow. I wonder if I do, what if I say I am interested, and would like to ask a couple of questions? Would I be doing anything wrong? Could I word it in a way, that it would be ok to do so? I am "intrigued" in the truth you hold, Am I allowed to ask questions before making my final decision? Yeah, that is it! Let them open the "door". see how far this is allowed. It will give me good idea how threatened they are by each question I pose. I can then focus on the most threatening ones. I wonder how it feels to to have such authority over peoples lives, to suddenly one day have to accept the responsibilty too. Proving their "gods" lazy, and far behind the spiritual need. I mean they have 144,000 of them right?

They are "slaves" of God. Slaves to sin. They are obeying rules out of fear, not by choice. Because they never questioned any of them.
