Tomorrow's Watchtower Study: Steve hits Selma in North America... not South America

by Alfred in

i started a thread a few days ago that probably went unnoticed for the most part (under "scandals & cover-ups") regarding steve hitting selma in tomorrow's wt study... i just wanted to recap it here for those who may have missed it.... the spanish version changes the story completely.... if you've read that paragraph 12 it basically says that steve hit selma as she tried to prove a point.

selma then feels sorry for herself.. in the spanish version steve merely gets furious with her and she gets sad.. by the way, i just looked up the italian version... .

selma ricorda una lezione che imparo dalla sorella che le conduceva lo studio.

The German version says something like "he got furious" too. No mention of any beating, hitting etc.

Since the early WTCD doesn't have older publication

by thecrushed in

i didn't ask why they don't because their own literature makes them out as horrible frauds!

my question is how do you get a hold of stuff like the "finished mystery" "the divine plan of the ages" and other pertinent false doctrine that has been swept under the rug and locked in the coffers at wt headquarters?

i feel so helpless because if i show my wife info on the net she will just write it off as apostate and altered like we have all been trained to think.

Who here likes Eurovision?

by TimothyT in

jw
friends

hey guys.. for those of you in europe, australia and even usa if you know it, who likes the eurovision song contest?

its great!!!

40 or so singers from all different countries all come together for a massive show where they all sing their song for 3 mins and then move on for the next singer.

processor

I like it, but I consider it more a comedy event than a serious musical contest. And we have really good musicians in Germany, but we always spare no effort to find an untalented, incapable Nobody and create an extraordinarily boring song for him.

Watchtower Dec 2011 Makes fun of fools who think the end is 2012. Ironic??

by Witness 007 in

wachtower dec 1 2011 p.10 "french village faces influx of apocalypse believers...they believe the world will end 21 december 2012 when the end of....ancient maya calander...despite predictions by calamity-howling religious leaders, pseudoscientists, and any other prognosticators, earth will be in existence for a long time...when will this occur?

no human knows.

jehovah's witnesses do not try to predict when god will destroy the wicked...{really?

The end can't come when anybody is expecting it. So as long as anybody is expecting it, it cannot come.

Billy: Expected by whom? To whom does 'you' refer? The world or true Christians?

Jesus clearly told his disciples (according to the Bible) that it would come when THEY do not expect it.

So, if Jesus was right, and Jehovah's Witnesses are true Christians, it will not come as long as they are expecting it. On the other hand, Jesus told his disciples to be on the watch - so to speak, to be always expecting the end.

- True Christians must always be expecting the end

- The end will come when true Christians are not expecting it (means, the end will not come when true Christians are expecting it)

--> The end will never come ... so the prophecy is fulfilled.

I'm going BACK to the Organization!

april fooooools!

c'mon man!.

I posted the same in the German forum this morning ;)

I have come to know that JWN is proclaiming erroneous teachings and under the cloak of 'cult information' follows hostile purposes against God's Kingdom.

I therefore left this organization entirely and made myself absolutely free from the teachings of this group.

I herewith give assurance that I will never again take any part in the activity of the Jehovah's Witness network. Any Jehovah's Witnesses registered there, I will denounce immediately. All PMs that should be sent to my address I will at once delete.

I will in the future esteem the laws of the Faithful and Discreet Slave, especially in field service will I, with Bible in hand, defend my faith.
