  WTC Destruction a Mild Preview of Armageddon

  by mikepence in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  yesterday's horrific destruction of the world trade center left me speechless and in tears.

  yet, faithful jw's view such a horrible tragedy as minor when compared to the horrible destruction that their god will rain down on mankind any day now.. i challenge any faithful jw to explain to me how they will watch the *entire world* come to a similar fiery end, and then *rejoice* at the vindication of god's name.

  will you be telling people out in field service how you view such horrible destruction as a good thing?.

  JW Theology and the NY disaster

  by msil in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if i am misquoting the theology espoused by jws then please correct me.. but i am trying to appreciate their theology as far as death and armageddon are concerned.

  we know that the jw belief is as follows: "he who has died has been acquitted of his sin".

  this is often used to imply that almost all who die prior to the great tribulation or armageddon will receive a resurrection of life or judgement (ok we know sodom dudes, judas and the flood victims wont get one according to jw theology).

  What I heard the JW's say in light of this tragedy

  okay, i know (or want to believe) that not all jehovah's witnesses are this calloused.

  at least i hope not.

  there are some good, caring people, but here are some stark contrasts i've observed today that remind me of how glad i am that i'm not part of such an overall unloving group of people.

  we have been informed in dayton that gas prices will go up by midnight by 4 dollars a gallon.

  i hope this is another false alarm, but i am filling up in either case.

  as i was in the dentists chair this morning, i got the news and my heart just sank.

  i think of all those poor people and their grieving families, and my heart goes out to them.. well, you know, i have to say this: ....my money is on you.. i think you nailed it this time.... what is the verse about them "growing faint out of fear"???.

  all i can say is..stay tuned.....you guys ain't seen nothing yet..... the fun begins when the terrorists are identified and recompense is sought by the united states.. oh, and not to mention the ramifications in the global markets..... yep, like i said folks...."welcome to the gt.....and the finale is the big a"... this is a day that will go down in world history.. chipster

  i found this place, purely by accident, and have been very amazed, at all of these touching, personal revelations, that many are sharing, here.

  i actually was doing a search, jus tryin to learn how michael jackson's appearance came to be so radically changed..(that's a whole nother topic, and i came away, feelin sorry for him, after all i read, but, another time ) and ran across this forum.

  im 41, was "raised" in the truth, my mother and her whole side of our family are long time witnesses, my father converted when i was around 4 years old.

  ARE JWs Snoops?

  by Zep in

  on the the back of awake june22 is a short little story!.

  last year, in maryland, u.s.a, a man politely refused the wt and awake magazines.his younger, however asked if she could have them, and the father said that she could.the two cleaning their car and putting trash in a nearby trash container[in other words a dumpster].

  concerned that the magazines might be discarded, the witness who offered them decided to return later[in other words late at night/early morning] and check the container[container is such a nice word...but in reality its called a dumpster...].
