  Simplified Suggestion-- The Faithful and Discreet Slave

  by FusionTheism in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  my simplified suggestion for the faithful and discreet slave (matthew 24:45-51, luke 12:40-48):.

  it's really just a simple parable showing that jesus will reward the leaders of each congregation / church who remain faithful and discreet in caring for their flocks, and that he will punish the wicked leaders.. nothing more, nothing less.. this parable is exactly like the messages jesus delivered to the 7 congregations in revelation 2:1 through 3:22.. there is nothing in the bible that links the faithful and discreet slave to anything else besides the leaders of congregations.. plus, since this is definitely a parable/illustration, the governing body now says we should not be looking for any special complicated antitypical fulfillments or giving explanations for every detail of the parable..

  Good.

  My take on it is that each of us can be "the faithful and discreet slave". I think this parable is at a personal level. Like the virgins. We don't think that just because they are females it applies to women. It is just a parable. Are you listening GB????

  
  Disclaimer: My thoughts, in case I would think all of this is for real.

  Video based indoctrination for children

  last night at the meeting we watched the "jehovah will help you be bold" video.

  just another piece of propaganda to get children to recruit other children.

  i was just reading another thread discussing the other video (where they guilt trip kids to give money) and i recalled a something from the video we watched last night.

  WT/GB/FDS are a reactionary corporation. They go where the wind blows.

  - Before the internet the were always talking about how bad music is, because that's - what people used to do, or kids get in trouble.

  - Later was internet is all bad. Not anymore.

  - Now they are into kid's minds, because they know that's where the grow is.

  If you pay attention, you will see a pattern in the WT/FDS/GB, they react to what's in vogue.

  No substance.

  Do You Remember The Days When The Society Would Say Everything Pictured Something About Them?😇

  when you look at the society's literature, it is pretty comical to see how important they believed they were.

  it seems to be not as bad under the new regime but they certainly believe they are a special people.

  lol

  Simplified Suggestion--The 144,000

  by FusionTheism in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the governing body has recently placed a large priority on simplicity and clarity in their teachings and publications.

  for example:the watchtower study edition, march 15, 2015, pages 8-10:.

  in recent years, the spiritual instruction provided by jehovahs organization has reflected an increased emphasis on simplicity and clarity.

  Rumor about the Imitate Jesus Convention

  by FusionTheism in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i saw a rumor a few weeks ago on reddit that the new imitate jesus convention is supposed to present new light and clarified understandings on the disfellowshipping/disassociation practices.. supposedly, if this rumor has any truth to it, there will be a talk given at the convention about how we should not be strict like the pharisees in how we shun people, loosening up some of the jw rules about this practice.. has anyone here heard anything about this or have more info on it?.
