New Catch Word "ADMINISTRATION"

by Balsam in

ok i have the february 15th 2006 watchtower and starting on page 17 para 7 the gb are cashing in on a new catchword for this article and the next following ones.

wt study "an administration" for fulfilling god's purpose .

take from ephesians 1:9,10. nwt quote .

DavidChristopher

How about "Opinionated leaders?"

That would be a more honest catchword.

So how does the Governing Body represent the FDS?

by jaredg in

i was just browsing through the organizational manual and nowhere did i see the procedure for how the gb receives information for the anointed around the world.

it seems reasonable to me that there would be some sort of arrangement for the fds to present "new light" to the gb.

anyone know how this is done or even if it is?

Funny...I would bet if an "annointed" person tried to voice their opinion to the GB, and exault themselves to GB status, I would bet they would be quickly shunned. "Have faith in us....but we are not dumb enough to put our faith in you." ok.

The Bible - God's Word or Man's?

by SickofLies in

i guess my basic goal here is to express to others and hopefully get more support in my efforts to tear down the two worst and most inaccurate books the society has published.

those being: life: how did it get here?

and the bible - god's word or man's?

DavidChristopher

God's Word......hard to understand to allow dumbasses to make God a puppet and advocate of their personal opinions. Funny...if they could not...they would not be publically worshiping Him, would they?

Will they still worship Him, when He makes HIS opinion known? If they disagree...what are they going to do?

Would Jesus forgive Satan if he repented?

by DavidChristopher in

asked the elder conducting my book study today...he didn't know.

how about a little help here old buddy.. if no...then why continue to "preach the good news" to convince them to repent?

that would be a waste of time.. if yes?....who would he not forgive?.

DavidChristopher

Yeah...I was just wondering. I have been looking everywhere for a man worthy to make that judgement call. I have had no luck so far.

Thought maybe you may know someone.

Is there anyone with strong opinions that will accept responsibility?

by DavidChristopher in

is there anyone who believes so much in their opinions being right they will accept the responsibilty for misleading anyone who chooses to adopt their opinions as their own?

would the gb accept the responsibility of their truth/opinions misleading millions?

i wonder if they believe their own bs that much?

DavidChristopher

Nice point T.S.

I never thought about it like that. When I was attending the meetings I never got the impression they were intentionally misleading anyone. I wonder if anyone really is? Or are they all just ignorant and don't know any better? Hard to call...without being God.

Truth is a truly a powerful thing.

Is there anyone who believes so much in their opinions being right they will accept the responsibilty for misleading anyone who chooses to adopt their opinions as their own? Would the GB accept the responsibility of their truth/opinions misleading millions? I wonder if they believe their own BS that much? Or they really don't believe in God, and they will ever be held accountable?

What do you all think?

What research did you do to come to that conclusion? Whos opinion did you decide to adopt? I need to do somemore research can you provide links. I may choose to adopt their opinions too.

Are the demons harassing you?

by Gill in

i found this particular article in the 'questions from readers' section of the april 15th 2006, watchtower, incredibly shallow and non specific.

it did not define what a jw was to consider a 'demon attack' and could well explain why the average jw considers their car breaking down, on their way to fs an out and out attack from satan and his deemunz!.

the question was:.

But I hear some of his followers are still around at the WTS. I think they have a phone number too...

TS, I think Satan got a new job. He was getting bored with the old one.
