  Things I Never Knew When I Was A Witness!

  by disillusioned 2 in

  2. beliefs

  there are some things that as a witness i never knew.

  maybe i was just going through the motions, attending meetings and not listening much.

  never was very good at personal study or underlining answers in watchtower or book study (i never ever answered up) was too shy.. i never knew when i was a witness that they taught that jesus had looked down on the earth in 1919 to see who was serving god most accurately, and of course he chose a small group of bible students living in america!

  May say that loving one’s fellowman is what really counts or that having a personal relationship with God is
  the really important thing or even that personally reading the Bible is sufficient (rs 326-8)
  Those who adopt such viewpoints are like Satan
  They break away from the Father, Jehovah (1Ti 1:19, 20; 2Ti 2:16-19)

  Oxymoron, anyone? How is "breaking away from the father" equals to breaking away from "Gods Org'?

  Only in WT world...

  this was a comment i made from another post, but i would like to hear some people discuss this.

  i know the social justice warriors will scream i'm some sort of trump supporter for what i say even though i don't agree with his ideas and no i am not voting for him... i accept this is a go to for them.. i think we have fallen into a pc vacuum.. criticizing someones religion = racism!.

  telling someone to not be so sensitive = misogyny!.

  i was recently told that circit overseers must give up the position at age 70. is that true and if so, does the coordinator have to give up his position at age 70 also?

  That's right. The WT/GB/FDS retires their high ranking members (except members of the GB, of course) at ages 70 and 80, just like God used to do with his old prophets in the past...oh...wait...

  This week's resurrection video, will it backfire on the wt?

  the resurrection is supposed to be a joyous occasion?, if it ever happened!

  --well, this week's showing at the hall was the opposite, it was about death with violins playing in the background.

  a recently bereaved member, , full of tears, (like many others) could not contain herself.

  There was a Sunday talk on feelings and emotions at a local church group recently and I noted that they said when we stand in the presence of the raw emotion of someone, we are on 'sacred ground' ....as in that person's heart is needing of our outmost care and respect.

  Beautiful comment.
