  "Keeping up with Jehovah's Chariot"

  by FusionTheism in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  clarified understandings / new light of the past 7 years or so:.

  * the faithful and discreet slave is only the governing body and only since 1919.. * the faithful slave was appointed in 1919 by jesus but it will not receive its greater authority until the judgment of the sheep and goats.. * charles taze russell was not part of the faithful and discreet slave.. * there was no slave for 1900 years before 1919.. * there may not have been any anointed during those 1900 years, but it's possible there were a few.. * 1935 was not the cut-off date for the selection of the anointed-- this selection is still ongoing.

  * 1935 has no special biblical significance.. * 1918 has no special biblical significance.. * gog of magog is not satan, but is a coalition of nations, who may be ruled by the mysterious king of the north.. * there is no evil slave class.

  Glad you feel the way you do about gay and lesion fellow humans. That is good. But the bible does not feel that way I'm afraid. The bible contradicts itself to no end so just about anyone can find any justification for anything in it.

  The bible is like a prisoner, the more you torture it, it's going to tell you what you want to hear. The end. Lott was righteous so someone could justify knocking up their daughters.

  Besides this issues of what people do in their bedrooms is better summed up in the freemindfade bible. It's a little cras but gets the point across.

  FMF 6:9 "what you eat don't make me s%$t and who you f $%k don't make me c%m."

  i was inspired to post this because so many of you lovingly support your spouse by going to meetings conventions etc .knowing the crap your going to have to put up with , hoping that someday he/she will wake up to the bs.. and your willing to do this for as long as it takes .i take my hat off to you all.. it must take a lot of intestinal fortitude and love to do that .. smiddy.

  Thank you. Can only hope one day she wakes up. I think like many she sees it getting strange but would never say and just wants to play along and be sure to get to the paradise petting zoo. So the pioneering and indoctrination goes on.

  Being shunned only increases my certainty that the WBT$ is a cult

  by punkofnice in

  well, i don't wanna rant too much but sometimes things cut you don't they.. a family member had a get together for the family, jw and non jw and of course i wasn't invited being da'd.. i understand why they couldn't invite me but it just made me think.

  in normal society this wouldn't happen.

  i'd have been there.. the shunning is so unnatural and damaging.

  It's one if not their biggest cult move.

  and it's ironic. In my case it went this way "you are acting like a cult..."

  "Whhhhhhaaatt!!!! How dare you insult my god and leader (gb) I will now mistreat and shun you!!" F $&%ing twisted.

  Even in the convention interview where the parents are depressingly gloating over their shunning. (Again twisted on all levels) they out right say what brought the person back was missing their family. Not that they realized it was the truth. Etc

  I often relate this to the inquisition. And torturing someone until they profess whatever the church leaders wanted to hear. How does that make them a true convert?

  Stupid cult.

  john hoyle--jws go knocking on strangers doors and try to get inside homes to preach.. wt rep--we are slowly moving away from that kind of preaching work, we do more preaching by using literature carts and personal telephone calls.. .

  the above quote is from john hoyle's website:http://insidethewatchtower.com/doctrine/phone-calls-to-bethel-jw-org-email-and-contacts/.

  it's interesting, isn't it?

  I'm okay with the "fruitage of the spirit."

  by cappytan in

  2. friends

  though i now consider myself a secular buddhist, i just realized today that i'm okay with trying to pursue the qualities mentioned by paul as the "fruitage of the spirit.".

  the only one i take issue with is "faith" in the context of religion.

  what are your thoughts on the matter?.

  New David Splane Video: No 1900 Year Faithful Slave

  by FusionTheism in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  governing body member david splane has a new video on tv.jw.org where he talks about all the horrible things committed by martin luther and the protestant reformers.. his conclusion is that there has been no faithful and discreet slave on the earth during the past 1900 years (before 1919 i guess.).

  he also says that maybe there were a few anointed on earth, maybe not.. he did add an interesting statement that he doesn't condemn the other churches just for misunderstanding the bible because the society has done that.. another odd point, was that he actually mentioned catholic missionary work in a somewhat positive light, while totally condemning the reformation views on predestination..

  Jehovah wouldn't allow a good-hearted person to be destroyed,

  Then what is the point of the preaching work at all???
