  Watchtower (Study) August 2023 gaslighting and deflecting again.

  by was a new boy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  'they turn the story around to make it seem like you are at fault, deflecting attention and blame away from them to make you feel guilty.

  this type of emotional manipulation is called gaslighting.. .

  deflection is manipulation, and if it's coupled with other toxic relationship behaviors, it may be necessary to remove yourself from the situation.'.

  Masters of deflection.

  Blaming others for putting too much stock in their expectations. Talking to people like they're idiots.

  The Revelation scriptures point to a crowd in heaven before the throne.

  Rutherford had to drum up a 2 tier system because he had a numbers problem and had to offset that.

  The JW dogma religion is true because you "know" it is slam-dunk.

  Hnmmm, ok

  All these JW Borg apologists share the pathetic,,foolhardy reasoning.

  Its like talking to someone who has their fingers crossed behind their back just stringing you along like some stupid idiot.

  Does the Governing Body already know that Jehovah (the name) came from Babylon the Great?

  by Chevelle in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i'll start by stating the obvious... according to the watchtower, the catholic church is a huge part of babylon the great which is led by satan and his demons.

  raymundus martini, a catholic monk (who "represents" babylon the great to some extent), woke up one day in the 13th century and decided to alter yhwh so it can be easily pronounced.

  hence the spanish-ish version of yhwh was created... jehova... (sounds something like this in spanish: heh-o-va).

  Im sure the governing bozos know that "name"" and the very existence of the Borg owes its origins to Babylon the Great.

  1290 jw congregations have been deleted since 4th dec 2022. i have a full map so you can explore active/deleted congs, and also orphaned halls https://analytics.jws-library.one/viewmap.html.

  many of the deletions in the usa appear to be foreign language groups.

  " I hope they all go to hell as far as Im concerned"

  This may all come true.

  Poetic justice. For all their abusive,,coercive and inhumane ways.

  How can we prove the Messianic kingdom was set up in heaven in 1914?

  Rutherford had an assembly talk in circa 1940 ,,,had all the young ones gather at the front of the stage advising them to never marry or have kids.

  But only to serve the Borg,,, I mean,, WT,,,I mean Jah.

  What`s the reason some of you think JW`s are in decline ?

  by smiddy3 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  from what i can see no such thing is happening.i became a jw in 1960 and remained for about 30 years and the numbers of active jw`s today in the world are far greater than they were back then.. and here in australia the numbers are much higher than they were back then .. so i don`t see that their in decline or have any worries about losing support .. don`t the numbers speak for themselves ?.

  is it just wishful thinking on your part ?.

  Maybe because the Borg was caught lying and plagiarizing in their magazines.

  Could be a reason for their decline.
