  Emotionally very ill but can't face consequences of leaving

  by Isambard Crater in

  i'm a new member so wanted to say 'hi'.

  i live in the u.k, was born in, fell away as an unbaptised publisher, got baptised in my 30s for reasons i'm retrospectively unsure of, and lost my faith about five years ago around the time of the original a.r.c.

  now, being unable to leave is making me physically, emotionally and mentally ill.. i'm not strong enough to da and live with the family consequences, and despite having several good friends outside the faith, none of them could support me in an active way as such.

  NWT is the finest translation of the Bible available to mankind. WTF

  by Buster k in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  this nugget of spiritual bullcrap is in there 2014 yearbook on page 4. .

  paragraph 2. early in this service year, at the annual meeting of the watch tower bible and tract society of pennsylvania, the new world bible translation committee released the newly revised english edition of the finest translation of the bible available to mankind.

  jehovah used his own spirit-begotten sons to provide the original new world translation.

  Has anyone here joined a different church after ditching the JWs?

  by NikL in

  2. friends

  i am just curious.. i have a cousin who is a baptist and his church streams their sunday services and i've been checking them out before i go to meeting with my jw wife.. i haven’t been to a church except for the occasional funeral and wedding and the only sermons i had heard were the tel-evangelist type.

  anyway, all the church bashing by jws over the years made me unsure what to expect and i was pleasantly surprised.

  they do use the bible and they don't spend the whole time begging for money.

  New teaching =There was no "Faithful slave" for 1900 years until Charles Russell!!

  by Witness 007 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  shocking video from jw.org shows the "new light" that there was no slave class handing out spiritual food for 1900 years!!

  so the original governing body became apostate and fell apart.

  charles russell re-started the faithful slave even though the watchtower admits he learned everything he ever knew from the "second adventists".

  Stuckinarut2 totally agree with you! These new governing body members (who are 50 friggin years old) have some huge egos and guts to say yeah we are the only mouth of Jah and also our "generation" is linked to the original "generation" (by Franz?)...They think we all have no education, we are stupid lambs!

There really was no slave class till after Rutherford died or to be exact till 1976! Totally shocking,

  Serpent in the Garden of Eden is not Satan

  by anointed1 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  many interpret serpent in the garden of eden as the satan hence miss the whole point because satan himself does not exist.

  he is a fictional character [for example, in the temptation account, satan is shown as reflecting the erroneous belief of ancient time that shape of earth is flat, thus taking jesus to the top of “a very high mountain” and showed him “all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor.” (mathew 4:8, 9) the fact that jesus did not correct the mistaken view of satan shows the account of temptation is allegorical.

  further, jesus knew that satan was only a personification of evil (mathew 16:23; john 6:70) and categorically declared that “all evil thoughts proceed from one’s heart,” not from satan.

  We dont see Satan till the book of JOB. This book is written in Poetic form and is more of a shakespearian tale.

  "would you drink a glass of water if it had just a tiny bit of poison in it?"

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  no doubt we have all heard that well used "illustration" in public talks etc over the years:.

  "if you were handed a glass of water that looked pure, but were told it has just a tiny drop of poison in it, would you drink it?".

  the society has used that illustration at length to say we should avoid all influences of every part of the world.. but, as we know, the society has had a track record of errors, false ideas and doctrines.

  Genesis Lifetimes and Numerology

  by schnell in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  out of morbid curiosity, i would like to here reduce the digits of the lifetimes stated in genesis chapter 5. it is clear that no human being has ever lived that long, and perhaps there is some numerological meaning to these numbers rather than literal history.

  7 after he became the father of enosh, seth lived 807 years and had other sons and daughters.

  10 after he became the father of kenan, enosh lived 815 years and had other sons and daughters.

  1+1 =2....."generation" is two "overlapping generations.....does not compute...error.

  We deserve to die

  by elfgoblin in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  at the meeting today, we were reading the watchtower and this elder apologetically said to such a degree in regards to romans 5:12 that "we humans are not worthy of any mercy from jehovah.

  we shouldn't even have free will because we can't possibly do anything good enough to please jehovah.

  we don't even deserve life because of sin.
