  just a little disclaimer: english isn't my first language (i'm from france) thus the poor writing skills.here is the situation: i'm not a jw.

  however, i'm in the process of becoming one.

  in fact, i'm studying with the jw's, and i'll proceed to become an unbaptized publisher as soon as i finish the first book.to make a long story short i was introduced to the truth when i was 18een.

  To the OP : Also look into Captives Of a Concept by Don Cameron.

  You touched on this briefly with 'new light' of Prov 4:18 and how it ties in to Math 24 :45-47 and the Faithful and Discreet slave. This was a rhetorical question posed by Jesus and was not meant to point to any one particular group. The WT don't have a leg to stand on once this is shown. I believe they did this for 'unity at all costs' and even though their reasons may of been honorable at one point long ago, they certainly no longer are.

  Oh and the 'well where will we go, you have saying of everlasting life' spoken by Peter. Well the answer to that is Jesus Christ himself, not the 'organization' that claims to be Jehovah's organization. Actually when you stand back and look at it there whole way about upholding themselves is childish, immature and reminds me of schoolboy behavior and bullying.

  Check out Arne Jordly's works, he's been at it for 25 years and has some great commentaries available :

  Borean Pickets is also a great site : http://meletivivlon.com/

  God's kingdom with Christ Jesus as high priest, non trinitarian all without the 'governing body' teaching.

  Is the elevated tone of the G.B disappearing..

  by The Rebel in

  2. friends

  and with it the language in the w.t loosing its authority?.

  i ask the question because, with the g.b now appearing before members on their social media, and reluctantly on royal commissions my opinion is :-.

  a) the g.b can no longer hide like wells's invisible man.

  Like any other big business it's taken a life of it's own, the ones on top are somewhat replaceable.

  They think too highly of themselves and their organization.

  Bangalore

  Totally agree, I've met my fair share of entitled witnesses, as in above the law and free to abuse and take advantage others at will with little if any remorse.

  a while ago the user vinman started a forum thread called: "ray franz was an idiot".

  the reaction to it was quite negative but i have to admit that the title of that thread was intriguing to me.

  by nature i am an iconoclast.

  Question : Did Raymond Franz really post here on the forum while still alive ? Would love to read some of his posts. I do recall reading something about how attached he was to their pet dog, was quite touching. Love the guy.

  For the Supporters of Those Who Love Jehovah

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i am jehovah's witness, despite some of the questionable teachings, crimes, and other outlandish behaviors of specific people affiliated with the religion.

  i know that my relationship with jehovah is not influenced by any outside factors.

  i do not condone any crime.
