eight million jehovah's witnesses do not believe they are saved, so how can they in short order tell you how to get saved on your deathbed?.
instead, they might tell you, “look you are about to die and the great tribulation has not started yet, so you don't need to repent and believe anything really.
just die and your death will pay for your sins and unless you have sinned against the holy spirit, you will be raised along with most everybody else and learn from others such as abraham, isaac and jacob, how to live for the kingdom during the 1000 year reign of christ.
Great thread!!
This whole JW ideology, dichotomy of NOT knowing who Jesus is,,,is because its been scrubbed from their beliefs and replaced with loyalty to the Borg and GB.
Their God has replaced Jesus,,and it's something you have to work and earn,,trumping Eph 2:8,9. Beautiful scripture btw.
No,,,Jesus clearly is the way. John 14:6. The Bible is all about Jesus.
Grace,,,has been replaced with ""undeserved kindness"" in their theology.

here i will quote a post written by "littleone" on another forum:.
when that original congregation apostasized, it formed the roman catholic church.
was it that the roman catholic church was jehovah's organization?
Because its not in the Bible.
i have a question about this article.. https://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/faq/jw-education-school/.
higher education can lead to moral and spiritual dangers.
a bible proverb says: "the shrewd one sees the danger and conceals himself.
The Borg hates higher education.
are the governing body really in charge or are they just a figurehead with the real power being behind the curtain .
Not sure where to ask this in what topic or where, but here goes.
There is a "special needs" talk the Borg is having week of Dec4,2023. According to Mike and Kim,,Kimmy doesn't know what its about either.
She is wondering if there are any PIMOs out there who might have a heads-up or in the "know",,LoL

...in other words it fits their ""us vs. them"" mentality.

JWs I've often heard the exclamation ""university or college makes you stupid".
In other words, what 'higher education' does is it opens your mind up and promotes critical thinking skills and ""how"" to think in direct contrast to the Borg TELLS you ""what"" to think!!
i understand he intimated that the faithful slave was not the only spokesman for jehovah god.
he also intimated that corporal punishment was not advocated by the wts.
we're these lies or deception or did they represent the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth?.
Its not called lying..
Its called " theocratic warfare".
When its done to benefit the Borgs interests.

The JWs dont endorse something at certain times to benefit the Borg..for public image.
Then they will turn around and do the opposite when they want to enforce its policies amongst its members.
You know, having it both ways.
issues raised in this thread:.
https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/6496820625145856/non-jw-parent-dating-jw-who-wants-children.
i'm trying to list all the things jw children are not allowed to do, or are discouraged from doing.
It really is the children of JWs who get blindsided by the Borg.
They get roped-in to something from birth when they have no choice of what they're getting involved with.
They heavy-handedly are strong armed into it and its policies and later in life they realize what happened and get out of it without life altering consequences.
