i attended the todays wt study and got notice of the illustration of jesus doing away capitol hill and barack obama.. i think the illustration passed the juridical advisors of the wts, having a blackout!

of are they trying to reach the anti government people like the tea party idiots with this kind of propaganda illustrations?.

is this a signal that the wts is anti democrats, anti obama?.

That ain't Jesus. I think that dude used to play left inside linebacker for the Cleveland Browns.

If God truly loved humans...why not reveal himself ? So that they could make an informed decision ?

by smiddy in

we learn from the bible that god spoke to adam ,then certain faithful ones,then after moses only the preisthood that was established,and individuals, raised as prophets,and this by the way is only a a small select group on the planet.never mind about other groups of humans.

fastforward to the era of christ ,again, god is only dealing with a small select group to advise and admonish.during the time from moses to christ he was only dealing with what became one small nation.the rest of humankind were left to their own devices.fastforward down to this 21st century we have no guidance/instruction/prophets to instruct or guide us.

( i know this is where jw`s would say but we have been preaching & teaching you god`s truths since 1879 ) all i can say their, is take your head out of the sand and look at all the changes ,corrections adjustments,re-adjustments,reversals,and failed expectations of prophecy you have published over this last century )so as to my question why hasn`t the god of the universe revealed himself to all humans of every race on all continents instead of just a small select group, if he truly was interested in the human race.

I think I would have to ask the question, what exactly is the "informed decision"? What are we deciding? If we're going to believe in a God or not or what his name is? What difference would it make? What difference has it ever made, except to divide people and cause them to judge others?

The question itself is based on the false idea that God is outside of us, and that there will come a day of "judgement". As long as someone believes that, there is nothing to make any informed decision about. Instead of going out and changing the world, they wait for whoever put us here to save it. Their life is simply that of a prisoner doing time, hoping for an early parole for good behavior.

The problem is that the real knowledge of why we're here and how things work has been suppressed by those who wish to keep all the wealth and power to themselves. What we need is to have them exposed. That will take Divine Intervention, but not in the way we would expect. There is no one single entity called "God" who is going to reveal himself. The Absolute, the "Father" that Jesus spoke of, is pure love and light from which all the energy in the Multiverses emanates. The various dimensions unfold from the "top" or the Source. In order to grasp this, we have to think outside the 3D box we're in, and view our present perceptible "reality" as just a low channel on the TV. There are higher channels, but we have to evolve into them.

Why Is There NOTHING Written In The Bible About Jesus' Early Years?

by minimus in

why doesn't the nt have anything about jesus on record prior to his baptism?

after all, he was a perfect boy.

you would think that little jesus would've been talked about by everyone in the town,.

ProdigalSon

That would be entirely too much information for the Roman Church to let the simpletons know. After all, he was the "Son of God". Things just happened "automatically", didn't they? I mean, what would it do to Christian theology if the Bible told us that the real reason Jesus was swished off to Egypt was to study in the Mystery Schools?

It's impossible for God to reveal himself, because he is already revealed in everything. Not one atom could keep existing without God.

If we're looking for more tangible 3-dimensional proof, we should start praying to the UFO's.

"Seeing" the source of all things happens through the third eye, the pineal gland chakra. The major religions teach this esoterically, from the Hindu red dot to the Catholic Ash Wednesday...

"Hence Jacob called the name of the place Peniel, because, to quote him, "I have seen God face to face and yet my soul was delivered." ~Genesis 32:30.

Peniel (Hebrew) = "Face of God". It's right in the NWT's footnote!

The truth is in the Bible if you look close enough. These stories are not meant to be taken literally.

i just smiled my biggest apostate smile and walked away... i wonder if the elders will call on me soon..

ProdigalSon

And what the hell was HE doing out on Black Friday? Witnessing to the pagans?

i tried to find it, but it's gone.

as well as the jehovah's witness fb page.

it seems in the recent weeks those sites became "overrun" with apostates and were no longer encouraging.

ProdigalSon

Isn't that the place where people were getting "df'd" and everything was suppressed? If so, then good riddance! They're not supposed to be on the Internet anyway.....

i've got one!.

you don't have to wait in long xmas lines at the store to buy xmas presents.

as a matter of fact, you don't have to buy a damn thing!.

I have to admit, that coming from a pretty rough neighborhood, there's a possibility it might have kept me away from some venereal disease, the State Penitentiary, or the morgue.

DO WE HAVE TO KNOW WHAT ITS ALL ABOUT!

by warmasasunned in

hey i left the j's almost twenty years ago, like you i had my reasons for joining and my reasons for leaving.. i've matured alot as you tend to do as you grow older, so maybe i've lost touch with alot of my idealistic thinking, insercurities and basic stupidity.. as much as i would love it, that there was an after life, where you can once again enjoy the love of lost love ones, its not the over whelming driving force of my life.. because of that i think i am a much happier person, i live for now, i basically belive, all options an evidence taken into account that this is it no god, no religion, no truth.. of course that is not a mantra set in stone i am not right and you are wrong, and my god it would be so great if this was all a big joke!.

but for me i get on with it, not looking for god, not looking for truth.

happy to just wait an see.. what about you?.

ProdigalSon

Some of us do, and some of us don't. Not everyone has to know, that's why the Bible says those with insight would bring it to the many. For anyone who is ready for it and expecting it, we're approaching a quantum leap in evolution. Just sit back and watch events unfold over the next couple of decades and much of it will come into view. Those who love this rotten world will stay with it and reap its rotten fruitage.

Jesus said if you want to know, keep seeking, keep knocking, and keep asking, and it will be given to you. If you believe there's no answer, none will be forthcoming.

I learned something very interesting recently about this whole process of our evolution. Jesus summed up the entire Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, at Matthew 13:33:

"The Kingdom of the Heavens is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three large measures of flour, until the whole mass was fermented."

Why do Jehovah's Witnesses Feel Like They Have To Label You?

by Pitchess Co-Gen in

ok here's a little story on my background i was baptized in 2003, and i was a model witness for 2003-2006. then i had sex and was at first put private reprove (2006) and i made a another boo-boo in 2007 ( public reprove ) .

i was then given a bad name and thats when i started to get ''troubled'' label and a bad name around the circuit.

i labeled as "party boy" and ''sex hound'' ( which i was lol.

ProdigalSon

Labeling things is just a by-product of making judgments. The main focus of the religion is Judgment Day. And then that scripture that says "hate what Jehovah hates" reverberates through the back of their indoctrinated little heads all the time. Jesus said not to judge but the Bible as a whole contradicts itself on this. Elsewhere we are told that Satan rules and runs everything, and just about anybody could be a wolf in sheeps clothing. So, automatically, anyone who doesn't believe the Watchtower's dogma is labeled, negatively of course.

It's a real negative way to live, keeps one in fear all the time. Pretty much a guarantee of not making the ascension to a fourth-density earth. So ironically, if the JW's don't wake up, THEY will be the ones to wither away and die, while a "great crowd" of others who have a sincere love and concern for the well-being of every human being, regardless of their beliefs, will thrive under the new energies that will be governing the earth.

Nobody forced us to believe. We CHOSE to follow their crap advice.

by hamsterbait in

have you noticed that the recent trolls are now claiming that if anybody drew conclusions or made decisions based on what the society was printing, it was their own fault?.

kind of "we didn't force you to believe what we said or adjust your life because of it.

you chose to think we were teaching the end would come in <insert time range>".

Hi Scully. I think cameo meant our Godly intuition, which is sometimes very near the surface, like when we are dealing with our children, and sometimes its buried beneath many layers of preconceived notions. If its been molded by anyone else, it's just another ego (opinion) that's been imbedded in the subconscious mind. It's not easy sometimes to sift through all those layers. It may take years of taking in knowledge combined with meditation and practice.

There are two polarities for intelligent beings to choose from: Service to self (STS) or service to others (STO). Sheep and goats. The bottom line: Do our thoughts and intentions self others or serve the self? Is the ideology based on the best possible scenario for the good of everyone (universal benevolence) or just a select few?

Kinda puts the worlds largest printing corporation and its leadership on the wrong side of the fence, doesn't it?
