  1. jehovah's witnesses have a clergy.. 2. that clergy consists of 8 men in brooklyn, n.y.. 3. those 8 men decide what every witness must believe in.. 4. any witnesses who openly disagrees with any of the teachings, faces expulsion & shunning by every fellow witness - relatives included.. welcome to the spiritual paradise!.

  Per KateWild:

  However, baptism is not a mere bath. It is a symbol of something very important. Going beneath the water symbolizes that you have died to your former life course. Being raised up out of the water indicates that you are now alive to do the will of God. Remember, too, that you have made a dedication to Jehovah God himself, not to a work, a cause, other humans, or an organization . Your dedication and baptism are the beginning of a very close friendship with God—an intimate relationship with him.— Psalm 25:14 .

  Current questions:

  Baptismal questions from the Watchtower 1985 Jun 1 p.30:

  (1) On the basis of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, have you repented of your sins and dedicated yourself to Jehovah to do his will?
  
  (2) Do you understand that your dedication and baptism identify you as one of Jehovah's Witnesses in association with God's spirit-directed organization?

  Indeed a LIE!*

  *Unless the can come up with a re-definition like they always do of organization...

  12 since the establishment of the kingdom in 1914, the king has refined the way gods servants are organized to do his fathers will.

  (read isaiah 60:17.

  ) in 1919, a service director was appointed in each congregation to take the lead in the preaching work.

  Question: Why the WT/FDS/GB stops at 2 overlapping generations? Why 2?

  @ Phizzy. Lol. They are going more direct, "not evidently", but "Jesus was referring"... I wonder if the apostles catch that there would be 2 overlappings annointed classes, since the WT/GB/FDS had said that the apostles knew Jesus was referring to them when he said "this generation".

  What is sad is that when you read Matthew chapters 23 and 24, whenever Jesus speaks of "generation", he is referring to the bad guys.

  "in mentioning “this generation,” Jesus was referring to two groups of anointed Christians".

  Where, where?

  anyone know why it is taking so long for it to be put on on jw.org?

  it supposedly highlights the jw.org website so is there a special campaign or something?

  i would have expected it to be there already since both editions of the watchtower have been there for a while..

  emeth, my point is that they are full of themselves. With 7 million members, a good quantity of them going everyay, of course you get goog numbers. They are late to the game, and already they are claimimg that are better than most websites. Typical JW thinking.
