  Very good post cultswatter.......It proves in a plain and simple way that acquired power is tricky to handle if your going to keep it and many times will corrupt most.

  Putting The Kingdom First.....

  by Sunspot in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  if i had a dollar for all the times i heard this----*i* would be basking in a multimillion $$$ estate in the bahamas.

  every jw was told this over and over at every meeting and convention the wts had the doors open for.

  what i didn't realize was that jesus words were being twisted yet again by the men who write for the watchtower, as they continually shouted this into their loyal and obedient (tm) followers ears.. yes....jesus said for his followers to put his kingdom first in our lives......he didn't say to put the watchtower first in your lives!!!

  We are all aware of the empowering effect that religion has availed itself for a select group of men, as an example the WTS. One hundred years ago a small group of men in New York

  U.S.A. stated that god's kingdom on earth was being established and we are a part of that kingdom and are its spiritually directed constructors.They were some of many power seekers

  at the time and there were many more of course as history shows. This was an obvious attempt to place the power of god in their hands and perhaps exploit it for their own purpose and

  thats what they did. And now one hundred years latter a small group of men can stand high on top of that constructed tower and see how well the power of their kingdom has expanded

  thanks in part to their procured slaves.........bullshit does sell well doesn't it !

  Why do dubs act as if 1975 wasn't failed prophesy or misleading?

  by NotaNess in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  from the evidence i have found, it was all but etched in stone.

  so why try and defend the wts by saying "they never stated armageddon would be in 1975", as one witness tried to throw back at me.. seems that you could show them all the evidence in the world of this false organization, and it will repel right off them.

  is there some sort of "force field" kool-aid they're serving at the halls?.

  Fear is power and control folks believe in that ! It's also used as a markrting tool, they have the freedom of press and they darn well know it !

  If most men decided to wear a beard today, would the JW's follow?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the jw's will say that in jesus time, it was ok to have a beard because it was their custom back then, and today jw's should not have a beard because it's not our custom to have one today.. since the world is ever changing, it will continue changing, and beards might come back and be popular once more.. it's only a cheap excuse on their part, because they will never accept beards, even if every man wore one today..

  If it were to become a trend they would ban it, I'm sure, mustn't follow trends its evil, do remember too that short hair clean cut policy is for sales and marketing to the general public.

  The simple agenda of JWS training is to say and speak only good things about the organization and the people within it, that is their mandate any wittiness that speaks out in a questioning

  tone about the organization and their written doctrines is perceived spiritually weak and possibly demoniacally inspired. Fear is the controlling factor here, harm will come to you if you don't

  speak as your suppose to speak, the truth is written out for them to speak upon as a slave is suppose to say from his master, any contravening speak could bring reproach and punishment

  otherwise. In other words say as your suppose to say or damage might fall upon you.

  There were many splinter groups that formed after CT russell's death

  my eyes are now opened .

  how can the watchtower bible and tract society claim to be in the lineage of the true christians since christ walked the earth?.

  the wts has never published the true story.

  Self promoting marketing in a free society, not to be considered as scriptural understanding, all though the two get fused together at times.

  Thanks Atlantis......It's quite apparent from this book and other sources that C.T Russell was quite the power seeking opportunist and quite the self-promoting bull shitter too !

  It's not all surprising though since he was a professional salesman, he does suit that personal character profile and it shows in most of his work........thanks again.
