If these morons who supposedly have God's spirit, would have had age appropriate education for younger ones, we wouldn't have fallen asleep and needed to be spanked or reprimanded!!

Of course if they had taken psychology in college they would have known about stages of human growth and developement and that children are not miniture adults and thus shouldn't be treated as such. oh..that's right...I went to college ...they did NOT!!

Yet..it was "I" who was marked as someone BAD to associate with simply because I wanted to make enough to support my family and the approved professions (which our congregation was saturated with) of window washers, carpet cleaners, janitorial services, and siding and window repair people did not appeal to me.

how many of you found that the 'deeper' your comments at the wt or bookstudy, the less the conductor called on you?

LexWatson

I gave a comment about 2 years ago at the bookstudy regarding Jehovah and his co-Creator Jesus. EVERYONE shook there head "NO!" and said that I was wrong. I thought to myself, "I learned that right here in this very KH!!!!!"

They shook their head "NO" because that answer was not the verbatum, regirgitated thought from the paragraph.

I held up my hand after several commented as to how wrong I was and I read the scripture, "Let US create man in OUR image" and added that I was simply commenting on the TRUTH of Jehovah's inspired Word in the Bible but recognized the society's comment that ultimately it was Jehovah's power who created all things.

These people couldn't think outside the box for even a moment.

I actually miss the setting of the bookstudy. Has anyone found a group that filled that void?

Help! they're giving me a talk #4 entittled:" IDENTIFYING APOSTATES"

by dark angle in

this is quite awkward for me to give!

our elder gave me that assignment last week and should be delivered next week on the theocratic ministry school.

considering i have very unconventional views for the wts about blood, evolution, bible, and the gb, delivering this talk seemd quite maladroit.

LexWatson

Please record on video (or at least audio). We would like to hear it!

If Jehovah isn't the true God then who is?

by unbaptized in

if jehovah isn't the true god then who is?

if the jehovah's witnesses aren't god's people then who is?.

please let me know and i need current information, not outdated information regarding the origin of the organization.

LexWatson

If you accept the Bible as a source of facts, (and obviously many do NOT) and realize it is best to read several of them and know their differences, then one can safely say that The Most High God is identified as YHWH.

That part was easy.

If we assume that The Most High God would expect his people to teach TRUTH and follow his word, then it is obvious the WT Club is not being used by YHWH. There are plenty of recent facts to confirm that!

For me, I have adopted the mindset that God's people are not identified by a "membership card". It is a lifestyle and a heart condition.

Jehovah's Witnesses as an organization are NOT God's chosen. Are there card carrying members who might have God's favor? Perhaps...but no man on earth can read their heart to know for sure.

Only WT club elders claim to be able to know individuals heart condition...which is one more thing that identifies them as false.

Mentioning Jehovah Less

by roflcopter in

i havent picked up a watchtower in a long time, but i cracked open the latest one "does it matter which religion you choose" march 1, 07.. i read the first few articles and it seems that the only time they even mentioned the name was jehovah was when they said "jehovah's witnesses" all other references were god... has the wtbts been trying to use the name jehovah less?

seems that way to me..

LexWatson

Perhaps this should be a new topic but...can anyone help me substantiate the ADDITION of the name Jehovah in the New Testament of the New World translation?
