  How Many More Ways Can The Society Shoot Itself In The Foot???

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  what kind of religion forces its elders to ask every imaginable question regarding sex to its congregants?

  the elders are told by "mother" that they must ask specific sexual questions and decipher whether a person should be classified as meriting a judicial committee or "just" counsel from a couple of men.

  who the hell do these men think they are???

  Actual Number of the anointed remaining

  by core in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  heard from a sister that a visitor to their cong (from usa) mentioned in passing that at the top at brooklyn they did not think that the reported number of anointed still alive was accurate, rather they believe that only a couple of hundred remain.

  they apparently believe this points to the end soon (again) - also if it is true they are not proclaiming it (obviously because the time limit it imposes will be exposed as another failed date).

  odd if that is the case as they keep on finding gb members who are not actually very old

  Is there really any such thing as a "genuine" JW? That's like assuming there are "genuine politicians"... what the heck does that mean? Don't mind me. I seldom know what I am saying anymore. Thank God for schizophrenia. It's truly a wonderful condition to be blessed with when living in a world full of weirdo normals. May Yahweh cook us with bacon and eggs for dinner after a hangover... In Blessyah, Amen

  Which is why we should start forming a real grass roots operation to take down the Jehovah's Witness organization for good. Starting with our local congregations. Let's get the ball rolling on this one. What we first need to do is start forming a select group of ourselves to find as many legal ways as possible to file suit against the organization. Wait... That's been done... Ok, on to the illegal stuff... just joking...

  PreExistence

  by Bookey in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  another major bible topic that is often misunderstood is the allged preexistence of the messiah.

  the messiah's mother, miriam, or mary as the greeks say, would beg to differ about the origin of her son's life.

  she would be the first to say (if she were not a pile of bones somewhere in a tomb) that the her son was a human being who she raised on her lap.

  Hello Everyone, Another major bible topic that is often misunderstood is the allged preexistence of the Messiah. The Messiah's mother, Miriam, or Mary as the Greeks say, would beg to differ about the origin of her son's life. She would be the first to say (if she were not a pile of bones somewhere in a tomb) that the her son was a human being who she raised on her lap. This is the first existence of the Messiah ever. He was born from his mother, and fulfilled prophecy about himself being from the seed of David, as the scripture teaches us. Holy spirit begat what was in her womb, and for that reason, the child was called "the son of God" (Luke 1:32,35) Now, the Witnesses will have us believing that the Messiah was an angel named Michael that transmutated himself into the womb of Mary (something forbidden by angels according to what the angels in Genesis 6 did) to become a human being. This is neo platonism. It is Greek philosophy. Not the truth. The witnesses (Russel) picked up on this false idea and made it doctrine. Comments anyone? Before commenting, keeping in mind one major factor about the bible. IT speaks in parables. Jeremiah was alleged to be "known by YHWH before the womb" according to Jeremiah 1:5, and Deuteronomy 18:15,18 teach us that the Messiah was definitely from the tribes of Israel. Boo

  Welcome. I understand all those feelings. I feel like you just described all the people I thought I knew, but came to realize they are drones. THe hardest thing for me is to stop these new feelings of evil I have towards the hall and the old people, and old things there. I keep having these desires to burn things and rebuke things with "fire". I find myself saying to the witnesses I run into at stores and such "Yahweh our real elohim is going to rebuke you with fire" and so on... It releases endorphins if anything, and you cannot be arrested for saying so, since you are only pointing out what the real Yawheh or armies is going to do to false babylonian mystery religions such as the Jehovah's Witnesses. IT took me a while to realize that Jehovah is a false 14th century word from medieval times and it is closely associated with freemasonry. The real Yahweh is an Elohim of LOVE not hate and definitely not of structured hypocritical organization. I repeat Yeshua called the Pharisees hypocrites for their strict tight rules... Because they missed the love of God's law, and only saw the hate... Silly human race... IF we were all killed by a meteor tomorrow all of it would be worth it since there is little accomplished by such an arrogant world of hypocrites. May Yahweh rebuke us all with fire on high... Starting with the Watchtower society.

  How Effective is the Internet at spreading the Good News?

  by Nosferatu in

  2. friends

  here's a test to see if apostates can spread the good news faster, further, and wider than the jws do.. now, does anyone remember what the good news is?

  if you can, please post it in this thread.

  then, the thousands of readers on this board will bear witness, and apostates will survive armageddon because they are god's chosen people!.

  Luk 4:43 But he said unto them, I must preach the good tidings of the kingdom of God to the other cities also: for therefore was I sent.

  Act 28:30 And he abode two whole years in his own hired dwelling, and received all that went in unto him,

  Act 28:31 preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, none forbidding him.

  Mar 1:14 Now after John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God,

  Mar 1:15 and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe in the gospel.

  Act 8:12 But when they believed Philip preaching good tidings concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.

  The good news of the coming Kingodm of God when Christ VISIBLY returns to the EARTH so the meek can inherit it is the good news. We will be made kings and priests and rule UPON the earth forever. (Matthew 5:5, Revelation 5:10)

  The witnesses believe in the invisible kingdom, invisible Jesus, and invisible people. Satan is very good at deceiving people into believing things that are not really there yet... EVERY EYE WILL SEE JESUS when he returns...That is the good news... Not some false rider of the white horse in Revelation 6 who is actually the anti Christ.

  I'm going back to the JW's

  by Honesty in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  if you can acccurately disprove the mathematics in the following i will be at the local kingdom hall first thing in the morning and ask the elders if i may rejoin them in worship.. here is some information i have compiled regarding what the watchtower has printed in regards to the babylonian kings and how the lengths of their reigns can be calculated to arrive at the date of the destruction of jerusalem by nebuchadnezzar.

  if you're like me you've probably remained totally clueless whenever the subject of the chronology leading to back 607 b.c.

  as the date for the destruction of jerusalem by nebuchadnezzar comes up.

  Well, the idea of worshipping Jesus at Church scares me! I still worship YHWH the Father, I just don't do it the same way the WT does... I worship Him through his son Yeshua, alone, in private, just like he asked me to. The entire point of fellowship is to gather for friendship, psalms, and hymns. Worship of the Father alone must be done alone, in spirit and truth... Not through any church building and certainly not through any organization established today as a "religion"...

  Joh 4:21

  Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, shall ye worship the Father.

  Joh 4:22

  Ye worship that which ye know not: we worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.

  Joh 4:23

  But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for such doth the Father seek to be his worshippers.

  Joh 4:24

  God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and truth.

  Where was Daniel?

  by wozadummy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  when i was going to meetings i raised a question at the book study when the daniel book was being covered.

  when nebuchadnezzar had the image built all the people including all the rulers including the hebrew ones were commanded to bow to the image.

  it was brought to the attention of neb that three hebrews had not bowed down and it resulted in them being saved from the feiry furnace by an angel.. my question was then, where was daniel?

  The fourth "man" seen in the fire was an angel.

  Dan 3:28

  Nebuchadnezzar spake and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king's word, and have yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.

  Ok now I see.. The problem here is that we are assuming he is a "ruler" at this time in the sense of being a sherriff or satrap or governnor in some way. As the tail end of Chapter 2 tells us...

  Dan 2:48

  Then the king made Daniel great, and gave him many great gifts, and made him to rule over the whole province of Babylon, and to be chief governor over all the wise men of Babylon.

  Dan 2:49

  And Daniel requested of the king, and he appointed Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, over the affairs of the province of Babylon: but Daniel was in the gate of the king.
