"and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain.
for the old world and its evils are gone forever.

"Jehovah is the same today as he was yesterday and will be the same tomorrow." So the scripture goes .
Satan deceived Eve and she seduced Adam to rebel against God , leaving aside Satan told some truths here ,and God did not , Humans received punishment far greater than Satan who was the instigator of this disobedience in the first place .
Humans : What punishment did they endure , Birth pangs for a woman .
Life expectancy to be reduced dramatically.
Hardship in providing for ones livelihood for family
Disease and pestilence to plague mankind from then on , some of these afflictions were so undignified and degrading that it makes you wonder how a God of love could condone such a practice on his subjects.
Satan the Devil : What punishment did he endure .?
Well apparently nothing compared to what humans had /have to endure . he was still able to confront God in a heavenly assembly talking one on one with God thousands of years later in the account of Job ,
He has not had to put up with afflictions , disease ,or anything anywhere near comparable as to what humans have endured these past thousands of years .
So on his past record I would not put my faith in God honoring his future prophecy`s regarding the so called new heavens and New earth..
He obviously favours his spiritual creation over his earthly creation , Satan ? Humans ?
Satan obviously favoured
Humans , not so much

TTWSYF,
Iglesia ni Cristo ,is very similar
in doctrine , beliefs ,etc. apart from helping the poor and needy .which sets them far above the W.T. organization in their humanitarian projects.

Formerbrother is nothing more or less than a Troll who has sucked in so many posters., who by his/her posts demonsrates his/her`s inability to reason rationally over any point , and just keeps going around and around in circles , not addressing any of the issues made , but just keeps trolling the same ridiculous mantra.as to what is the alternative to the J.W.`s , give me a break is this person delusional ? insane ? or both .

Marvellous observations by all the above posters to show what charlatans these people are..
Sister Morris wearing a Sophie/Caleb pin ? Unbelievable ? no not really , just pathetic.
Good catch with the angle the photo was taken from ,obviously staged , just like experiences at Conventions .

i am going to engage on a trip to the past and share with you some of the matters that marked the beginning of the jws persecution in cuba.
you will be surprised that the pattern that was followed is very similar to what happened in other dictatorial countries.. in the cuban case, i am going to surprise you and tell you that like what happened with hitler; the wt was partially responsible for their clash and confrontation with the cuban government.
during the early 60s the revolution was fighting for survival and they were willing and ready to demolish any perceived enemy to their cause.. a prime example was their war against the catholic church that was the most influential religious entity in the country; it took the supreme leader only a few public discourses to send the vast majority of clergy packing and back to their country, in this case spain.. the jehovah’s witnesses were an insignificant minority but they over estimated their importance and displayed a belligerent attitude, it was known that this was a us based religion and an easy target to connect them with the cia.
An actual reference to the AWAKE article would be appreciated ,
They were never registered as a religion in Cuba ? Can you verify that information ?
I know that initially they never registered as a religion in Mexico , because only the Catholic Church could own their Churches , not any other religion.
So the J.W.`s operated in Mexico as a Cultural organization , for many decades and not a religion.

so imagine the gb have a sudden attack of honesty and realize "crap, this whole thing is lies - we're not god's spokespeople at all !".
how do you dismantle a religion that has +8 million members in a responsible way?
you can't just publish a watchtower saying "we were wrong" because that would be irresponsible - you need to let people down gently, put people off gradually.
As much as I would like #1 to happen , I can`t see it taking place., Look at the ridiculous beliefs / changes that have taken place since C.T.Russell through J.F.Rutherford , Knorr , and Fred Franz ,over the years , and their is still over 8 million active J.W.`s still peddling this crazy religion world wide .
It would take more than an Atom . Hydrogen , Neutron , Bomb all combined to wake these people up .
And the Governing Body know that , and there is no way they are going to give up the adoration and power they hold over these people .
The G.B. are close to being worshipped by the rank and file members , as if they are sitting at the right hand of God , they are not going to give that up ? Not for anything.
So the bottom line is , The G.B. is not going to dismantle the WTB&TS , not while there is still breath in their body.
