  Really, how do you decide?

  by startingover in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  over the last 9+years, i have read many discussions between believers and non believers.

  each side supports their claims with research which includes links to websites.

  my question is, how do you decide what information is really the truth and unbiased?

  Did you really pay attention at conventions or assemblies?

  a co-worker of mine whose family (2 daughters, wife) are jw's related a funny story yesterday.

  his wife and daughters missed the friday portion of the convention last week in order to attend a wedding of a worldly relative.

  at dinner she mentioned to him that she would go to the convention this friday to make up for the one she missed.. he then asked why and she said so she could get the information she missed.

  Why Watchtower Teaching On Armageddon Is A Myth

  by Scott77 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  at romans 6:1-14, we read in part, but especially at 6:7, " for he who has died has been freed from sin.

  ... we have died with respect to the wrath that sin incurs, having had our sins forgiven".

  now stop and think.

  Antitypes / Greater fulfillments - Where does this concept come from? Is there a biblical basis for it?

  by Psychotic Parrot in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i've been discussing this recently with my dub family & would like some more information on the subject as i'm not all that well informed on it at present.

  i'm not a believer in the divinity of the bible, but i do respect those who feel that bible helps them in their lives.

  however, those who claim that certain ancient prophecies will have a greater / larger fulfillment in modern times puzzle me.

  Are they deliberately trying to get rid of the "Old TImers"? (re "generation")

  by hamsterbait in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the vast majority have been sucked into the witchtower babble and trash cult over the last 25 years.. this constant rehashing and contradicting of the "generation " teaching is bound to drive significant numbers of the pre 1985 -"ish" witlesses away from the kingdumb hells, much as "1925" drove away vast numbers who might yet undermine "jug" rutherfords efforts to secure his power.. they will then be able to make major revisions of what to us older ones seem like core doctrines, which will be lapped up like iced cream by those who only have the perspective of the 21 century litterature.. this is too obviously deliberate.

  its not like some tiny side comment:.

  when the gibbering buddy wants some embarrassing thing to go away, blondie has pointed out many examples, they stop talking about it.. with this change they are rubbing peoples noses in it, slapping them round the head so they dont miss it.. and who are "gasping" at the co talks?

  Did you swear when you were a JW?

  by St George of England in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have noticed that quite a few people here swear and use profanity.

  an elder once told me this is quite common in the congregations he has been in.

  i was raised in so never allowed to swear and never got into the habit.
