New Watchtower Propaganda and hate speech destroying families (Feb 2016 WT)

by Daniel1555 in

the following is a paragraph from the new february study watchtower article "learn from jehovah's loyal servants.".

7 a conflict of loyalties may arise when a close relative is disfellowshipped.

for example, a sister named anne [1] received a telephone call from her disfellowshipped mother.

Compare:

"The religious ties he had with his family change, but blood ties remain. The marriage relationship and normal family affections and dealings continue." From: http://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/faq/shunning/

To:

7 A conflict of loyalties may arise when a close relative is disfellowshipped. For example, a sister named Anne [1] received a telephone call from her disfellowshipped mother. The mother wanted to visit Anne because she felt pained by her isolation from the family. Anne was deeply distressed by the plea and promised to reply by letter. Before writing, she reviewed Bible principles. (1 Cor. 5:11;2 John 9-11) Anne wrote and kindly reminded her mother that she had cut herself off from the family by her wrongdoing and unrepentant attitude. “The only way you can relieve your pain is by returning to Jehovah,” Anne wrote.—Jas. 4:8.

Straight fro the horse's mouth.

If "Anne" and and her mother exist, and is not a fabrication a la "Andre" style, I would like to know:

What did Anne's mother did to be judge as "wrong" and "unrepentant".

Also, Is jaw-dropping that a so-called christian religion find pleasure in giving PAIN to its former members.

This is a fucki** cult!

Thanks for the comments! I'm thinking like in some cases somebody is committed to some cause, and all of the sudden somebody else comes and make a great revelation and bang! Lights on!

I will keep exploring and waiting for my time to disconnect her from this monster.

Hello all. I keep thinking about the time I will "come out" and tell my wife about this sick cult. I don't know when that day will come, but knowing me I will seat down with her and ask her for 5 minutes to explain to her why we as a family has to get out.

My question is: what will you tell somebody in 5 minutes, that will convince that perdon that this is not a good religion to follow and that we have been deceived?

will you talk about JW's as false prophets? The many flip-flops? Wrong Bible interpretation? The New light game they play?

What will you say to a person if you only have 5 minutes?

Many thanks!

Don't preach, sell books.

by mikeypants in

i haven't seen this article before but i apologize if this has been discussed.. i decided to download a bunch of jw literature and came across this special bulletin from 1928, a special colporteur edition.

it was written by the society and sent to the roughly 1400 colporteurs, which is someone pushing religious books and magazines.

if you want the entire bulletin id be happy to email it.

1928 ah? Just 9 years after they were chosen by Chist himself.

Mid - Week Meeting This Week

by xjwsrock in

millie210 posted this on another thread - i thought it deserved it's own op:.

i took an elderly friend to the meeting last night.

the study is in the "imitate their faith" book which is merely a compilation of previous short stories about bible characters that were featured in a series of watchtower articles.. they waste no time beginning their spinning and supposition with the cain/abel story.
