Major anti-cult campaign in autumn? Post here if interested
by rebel8 inso we already have this thread which has separate actions for next month: http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/179142/2/make-august-2009-the-dawn-of-the-mass-exodus-the-beginning-of-the-end-of-the-watchtower-org.
i don't intend to discourage anyone from participating in that.
those actions are meant to educate current jws (help people leave).

Lurkers Please Read
by IWillBeDubbedNoMore inthe definition of an apostate is one who has abandoned his religious faith.
i was baptized in 1974. the religion i joined believed that jesus selected the bible students in 1919 to do a separating work.
we had to preach to find the sheep like ones.

"God allowed trinity for 1700 years."
1700+ years and still considered very valid and going strong in original form. Something with that long of a history carries a LOT more merit than something (WT) that's been around 130-140 years at most. Especially since it does not exist anywhere near it's original form (speaking of the WT of course). That's a little wishy washy if you ask me.

Wars, earthquakes and famines are not signs of the end
by Doug Mason inin the late 1960s and early 1970s, i wrote my study, 1914 and all that.
in it, i stated that at matthew 24 jesus warned his followers against seeing wars, earthquakes and famines as being signs.
i have not wavered from that position, which i have given in my posts here at times.. .

From what I read Jesus' return will not be obscure or visible only to a special few.
Rev 1:7 (NIV)
Look, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him; and all the peoples of the earth will mourn because of him. So shall it be! Amen.

JW Defenders- Is WTS Right to Insist You Stay Away From these Websites?
by OnTheWayOut ini read these threads and there are a few that bend over backwards to say why wts is correct on this issue or that issue.. they act like typical jw's that refuse to acknowledge points that may show that wts is not following the scriptures or that wts goes beyond the scriptures in a way that is not supported by others.. the point could be the blood issue or shunning or whether 1799 or 1914 was the start (or finish?
) of the last days or whether there is a faithful and discreet slave class or not.
i don't want to harp on each point.

"Spike Tassel (Post 907):— [Spike Tassel] is NOT one of Jehovah's Witnesses. So, I'm not "within" God's organization, nor am I allowed to be "associated" with it at this time. I'm not expecting "loving arrangements" nor do I "associate" with what is against my conscience, I oppose it, as peaceably as I can."
"I believe in truth guided by a spirit of holiness. I am not concerned with errors that have been fixed. That to me shows repentance. I am interested in whatever is righteous and upbuilding and fair. Good manners and honest compliments are also nice to see."
This is a little off of topic but it appears you are in a state of being ostracized by "God's organization" for some wrong doing? I'm not concerned with why but what I can't understand is the fact that every time the GB of JW's produces an erroneous teaching or doctrine that later has to be changed (but which causes pain and suffering on many) they are let off the hook by the JW's as "imperfect men". Even when they blame their mistakes on the flock.
Why is it when the tables are turned they do not extend the "lost sheep" the same convenience. Where's the JW's get out of jail free card when they make a mistake? When do you get to use the "imperfect men" excuse. Why are you so quick to dismiss everything done wrong by the organization in defending them yet they won't do the same when you're down and out?

Christian T.V show....man claims after car accident Jesus talked to him! Are they on drugs or lying?
by Witness 007 inthis guy had a serious accident and had limbs amputed but when interviewed claims very logically that while waiting for help jesus appeared and told him..."jim, everything will be okay, it's not your time...i need you to be a missionary for me..." this guy talks about it like it's nothing!
are these people for real or just lying.....i agree with marx who said "religion is the opium of the people.

"People have phenomenology occur related to their belief system."
Not always. Here's an interesting read of muslims converting after visions and dreams of Jesus. Google it, there are thousands upon thousands of testimonies all over the world from a multitude of different faiths .

"Who is the Man of Lawlessness/Son of Perdition/Antichrist BTW? I am curious to his identity and to why I have not seen the very specific prophecies regarding him come to pass yet?"
He must have had an invisible presence like Christ's in 1914. Only the Elect (like Estephan the Faithful slave) are privy to this discernment. LOL

It depends. In the bible the Son of Man/Son of God is Jesus.
Is this a trick question about who YOU are? Is this multiple choice? Ok
A) Member of the Gubberning body
B) Fred Franz (resurrected)
C) A delusional wierdo apostate
D) All of the above
Can I use my lifeline?
