  How Do You Answer Someone Who Says JWs Are Not False Prophets?

  by minimus in

  it used to bother me that people would say that about my well meaning religion.

  how do you prove that witnesses are indeed, false prophets?.

  Wannabefree; I think its very relevant pointing to the fact they are false prophets weather it be through the scripture in Duet 18, 20-22, to asking them to point one single prophecy that they predicted did come true, you may wake them up

  Creationist Should Dismiss Genesis Quickly

  chris tann,.

  in your earlier post you seemed to be under the impression that genesis and science were somehow compatible .

  however, the truth is the two are not reconcilable at all.

  1969 "fact": You will never grow old in this present system of things

  by Ding in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  awake!

  "if you are a young person, you also need to face the fact that you will never grow old in this present system of things.

  because all the evidence in fulfillment of bible prophecy indicates that this corrupt system is due to end in a few years... therefore, as a young person, you will never fulfill any career that this system offers.

  "It's the intent that counts and not the result."

  "it's the intent that counts not the result.".

  i have been out of the jw organization for some 22 years now and i sometimes get a reminding jolt out the hoops that some will jump through to make their religion make sense to them.

  the first line in this post is what a jw on the street here in salinas told me on saturday when trying to justify the society's history of false prophecies.

  clutching at straws, pathetic, they cant get out of jail that easily, they are becoming so suspicious of any source non WT releated they are throwing the A bomb in now, well thats the feedback I get from them these days, they know full well where this vast amount of data chronicling their huge amount of failed prophecies comes from. "it may seem strange but thats how Jehovah works!" show me a time through out history where you have seen Jeehvah working in a similar way? nonsense, a false prophet is a false prophet simple, Duet 18,20-22.

  as far as I can remember we were always having to refer to them as uncle and auntie, I never had a problem with it TBH, I like to rib guys at work who jokingly refer to so and so as "your uncle"
