When POLITICAL ELEMENT TURNS ON RELIGION
by cameo-d inwill this perhaps only "appear" as destruction of religion?.
could it be that religion will simply go through a reformation?.
hasn't the political and religious element always been bedfellows?.

Quote the AH :
"Why are the GB members so anxiously nervous about themselves and their teachings, they start a members only WT. as one example and there are many others.
The simple answer to this is they are now aware of all the information about them on the NET. information that they cant control, they cant disfellowship the inter-net.
It was easy before when they came across opposers they would simply DF them or demonetize with a label to keep them away from the flock,
now the inter-net appears with a mountain of evidence against them and they cant do a dam thing about it.
Its no wonder they are getting more cultish and try put up a bigger wall up and around themselves."
==========================================
friends , I think you know what is that.... it is war , a "spiritual war"
the WT organisation is the last fortress of Satan on earth (before his being caught and bound ) in his fight against the Kingdom of Christ !
The WT leaders/GB and others are represented in prophecy by Pharaoh of Egypt , who make his heart hardened when he met God's message
in our days God facilitates the "revelation" of the hidden things and wrongdoings of the Man of Lawlessness/Pharaoh asking him to let the sheep free to worship Him as Jesus taught them, "with spirit and with truth" ,
but he , the GB is more and more hardening his hearth , untill he will meet God's judgement and annihilation
but God will proceed to release his sheep from slavery , as it is written in Micah 7:15.

Is Being Disfellowshipped or Disassociated All That Bad?
by minimus inmost jws dread the thought of never being talked to again by a fellow "brother" or "sister".
the thought of being shunned by your flesh and blood keeps many witnesses in the religion.. is df'ing or dissasociation all that terrible?
?.

How do you respond to the JW statement: "The First Century had congregations, preaching, Elders, Servants, C.O.'s, and so do we!

you gave a good answer !
in fact , there isn't a such thing in Bible named "God's earthly organisation" (even spirit directed)
God has "people" on earth today .... the fact that his people has to obey His commandments make him "distinct" people like old Israel Deut 4:1-9
from Jesus onward this people is composed by all "congregations" of Christ , so, no-organisation
in the Congregation God appointed no GB , but : 1Cor 12
28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, divers kinds of tongues.
29 Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles?
the wt "definition" for organisation somehow would fit with "God's Kingdom" , but the kingdom is only in Heaven now , not yet on earth !
the christians were taught by Jesus to pray for its coming on earth : only then , the "real" arrangement of God will be on earth !
until then, we live in expectation of its "coming"
1 Now we beseech you, brethren, touching the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our gathering together unto him;
2 to the end that ye be not quickly shaken from your mind, nor yet be troubled, either by spirit, or by word, or by epistle as from us, as that the day of the Lord is just at hand;
3 let no man beguile you in any wise: for it will not be, except the falling away come first, and the man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition,
4 he that opposeth and exalteth himself against all that is called God or that is worshipped; so that he sitteth in the temple of God, setting himself forth as God.....

Thank you B. A. for the information !
it was all necessary for us
all the information confirms the fact that those who are/where "leaders" over the simple believers are in fact "weeds" (and not wheat)
the harvest is here , the judgement has begun from "God's house" , the "stars" are falling down from "heaven" - God is right !
the "Beast" together with "the false prophet" is just now being "caught"
we are living today the "spiritual" fulfillment of Ezekiel 21:25-27
25. " 'O profane and wicked prince of Israel, whose day has come, whose time of punishment has reached its climax,
26. this is what the Sovereign LORD says: Take off the turban, remove the crown. It will not be as it was: The lowly will be exalted and the exalted will be brought low.
27. A ruin! A ruin! I will make it a ruin! It will not be restored until he comes to whom it rightfully belongs; to him I will give it.'
yet a little time and the Kingdom will be given to "HIM"
who is HIM ? "that one which right now is lowly "
please, all of you, try to understand the prophecies -- they represents "God's point of view" !
the beast also was represented by the "daughter of Babylon" see what is to happen with "her" : read all Isaiah 47.
Greetings,

Confused and betrayed
by gimley inhi all on this forum.. i am very confused and lost and annoyed.. i was a jw for 28 years and then left not really believing and not really sure if there was a good or not, there was just to much hypocrisy in the kh and within the society.. dont be materalistic yet some pioneers seem to be able to have three cars and go on three holidays a year and somehow still make there hours.. the other point that really annoyed me was that my sister was treated like a criminal when she was dissfellowshipped which she was forced into, a elder would not stop coming to see her to convince her to come even if it was just for my parents, he said the only way this would stop is if she was to dissfellowship herself, now she was single living alone and saw no other choice but to do this.. so she was ignored and when she moved back to the scotland to get help with a wee one she had she did get help from my folks untill a elder reported them to the co and they had to stop.
now she was getting married so is no longer going to live in sin and my folks refused to go to the wedding as they would lose there position in the kh - despite that they decided to park outside the hotel so they could see my sister and kids go into the hotel and see them in there outfits, it is just wrong my sister was so hurt by this and her husband my best mate was so angry.
due to all that has happend over the year i dont know if i believe in god now,i would love to but i dont know how and whom do i trust.. .

Indeed , God is allowing the necessary time for those who acted against the righteusness(justice) to realise who or what are they
the same happened with KNORR , as it results from a testimony on net

I used to do a food drive every year around X-mas time. About 10 years ago, I was doing a food drive in the apartment complex I was living in at the time. I met these 2 women who were sisters (real ones, not the JW kind), both in their late 70's. Somehow it came up in the conversation that one of them had come to New Mexico back in the 1930's to help establish the JW's here. It was very unusual back then for a single woman to be doing such work, but she was ready, willing and able, so they went with that. Because she was successful here, she became close personal friends with Prez Knorr and they remained so for decades. She told me that on his death bed, he called her to him and told her to get out of the JW's immediately and not to waste another minute of her life with their lies, that they were a completely false religion and that the only reason he had stayed as long as he did was that he was an old man with no where else to go and at least with them he knew he would be cared for in his old age. She did leave the JW's.
I begged her to let me record her story on tape, but she refused saying she intended to write a book about it someday. Shortly after that, less than a year later, she died. Her book was never written and the story died with her, except for the little bit that she told me.
It's been 10 years now and I can't even remember her name...God, I wish I could, because it would be easy to verify all her missionary work in New Mexico probably.

Hi , all,
"today" it is the time when Jehovah is fulfilling this (His ) work;
Isaiah 42:
16 I will lead the blind by ways they have not known,
along unfamiliar paths I will guide them;
I will turn the darkness into light before them
and make the rough places smooth.
These are the things I will do;
I will not forsake them.Jesus said to seek first the Kingdom of God, (Matt 6:33 ) so , all of us who want to be christians have to obey this comandment of Jesus , and the Father will proceed with us according to His promesses in Isaiah.
in fact now is the time when all religions (including that of JW's ) are proven being wrong , and all people discerning that are invited to get out of them and to prepare to enter in the Kingdom (of God ).
The Kingdom is at the point of coming on earth ! please see Rev. 22:7-17.
Be trustfull !
"mindmelda" ... are you texan ? and wanting to be christian ?

God's kingdom:is it possible to define it ?
by Koiné insince i am working on an essay about "gods kingdom or the kingdom of heaven" i would appreciate how people describe or define this expression,apart from the watchtower definition.. is it only another metaphor for god's eternal universal reign?.
do we have to see it in a pre-post- or amillenial setting?.
is it only something in the mind and heart,or will it like, daniel2:44 says, one time be the only government over (or on) the earth.. if it started his activities after jesus death and ressurrection in the 1st century what has been the influence since then?.
