Thoughts?
back fourteen/ fifteen years ago now, this was a doctrine in place when i was still in the borg.
the field ministry was our "separating" work.
we as jws were separating the sheep from the goats if i remember correctly.
Gary,
The main reason for our ministry was to "vindicate" Jehovah's name. That's been changed too.
what has it been changed to.
Sorry, I have been out of the loop now for about 14 yrs and I want to equip myself with the knowledge of what has changed since i've been out. Every once in a while, my mom(in the borg) contacts me to try to get me to come back, so I want to be able to tell her exactly what I believed in "the truth" that is no longer "truth".
breaking in my new scanner here.
this is another image that captured my eye, an august 2004 wt.
the caption reads: "some have eliminated certain hobbies and nonessential personal projects" can you come up with a better one?
Excerpt from The Watchtower article entitled "Taping alone- Does Jehovah appove?"
"...And you shall know them by their fruits". Jehovah encourages his people to never tape alone. Do not let yourselves be tempted. Brother Jenkins had a problem with taping boxes by himself when he was worldly, but since turning to Jehovah he has been able to overcome his problem. "Before coming to Jehovah, I could not stop taping boxes by myself. In fact, I never realized how detremental it was to my spirtuality. One day, during a home alone mid-taping session, two Jehovah's Witnesses knocked at my door, and shared with me Jehovah's plan to overcome such "conscience matters". They posed a question "Who is the only true religion that teaches people to not tape alone? I realized then that I had found the one true religion and to this very day with Jehovahs strength, I have never taped alone again."

Thanks for the incite everyone.
Fullofdoubt,
you mentioned "around the time of the generation change", i'm sorry i'm so out of the loop. Are you referring to the 1914 generation? Did they change that too?

We as JWs were separating the sheep from the goats if I remember correctly. Has this doctrine changed? Do they still believe this? Also, have there been any other major doctrinal changes in the past fifteen years?
there many to choose from --------------how about .
" millions now living will soon be dead" (with no hope of a resurrection)--------------that means your unbaptized freinds and family members.
"how we have created god in our image" (jealous, hatedful, petty).
The 2007 "Millions now living will have to change their doctrinal thinking for the 2008 District Convention" District Convention.
"Oh what a joy that will be brothers..."
The 2007 "Publishers stop misinterpreting the truth, we did not say the world would end in 1975" District Convention.
The 2007 "It amazes us sometimes- how awesome we are" District Convention

Sorry Brooke, I'm with Jeff, I'm for the Colts.....the Bears schedule has been pretty weak. Their first real test was against the Giants, and I have to admit, they played pretty well. Yet they have a tough schedule coming up and I'm afraid Rex will be too inconsistent the second half of the season. So GO COLTS!

Hi Brooke,
I'm thinking we should have our own personal apostafest, just you and me, over a nice dinner and wine.
the most recent watchtower offers the usual nausea inducing, mind-numbing and jaw dropping sort of brazen hypocrisy they are becoming.
famous for by accusing other religions of being the antichrist.. page 5 of the dec 1 06 watchtower says the antichrist includes those that "falsely claim to represent christ or that improperly.
ascribe to themselves the role of messiah by presumptously promising to achieve that which only christ can do- bring about.
The WTS is definitely an antichrist, but not the Antichrist. I think, as far as the bible is concerned, they are definitely a "wolf in sheep's clothing".
15 "Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.(Matt. 7:15)
18 Children, it is the last hour, and as you have heard that antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists have come.(1 Jn 2:18)
22 Who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son. 23 No one who denies the Son has the Father.(1 Jn 2:22,23)
There are so many passages in the bible that point to THE Antichrist as one man. Sure, there have been many "antichrists" throughout history(Hitler, Nero, WTS, etc, etc,), but according to the bible the antichrist will be identified as the man who will at some point sit in God's temple and proclaim to be God.
3 Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness [ b ] is revealed, the son of destruction, [ c ] 4 who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God.(2 Thess. 2:3-4)
...there are also many prophecies about the antichrist in the book of Daniel also.
Personally, based on this information, I believe that the WTS, since they deny the Son, will accept or bow down to The Antichrist when he does come. The WTS will instruct through "new light" that this is what their members are supposed to do.
