By design?
Good observation. Make your life as cumbersome and as difficult as possible. Work,work, work, work,work make it horrible and put that paradise in the future,, a mirage.
It fits that carrot and stick mentality beautifully.

The formerly known as Cedars now Lloyd Evans has had his day on youtube.
He was instrumental.
Its served it's purpose. We can put his channel to bed.
Lets bring back the Magnificent 7!!!!
Yes. Those were the good days. When we were all ""waking up"" with confirmation!!! And that we weren't ""alone".

How Do Jehovah's Witnesses View Education?
by southyukon ini 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.

LHG;
I bet the long time, old school JWs are really pissed off right now with this "no hours" requirement now.
They just don't show it, or let on.🙂

Thats one thing in JWdom the vast rank and file are completely caught off guard for and ill-equipped for.
Is retirement.

WT and Deathbed Salvation?
by Vanderhoven7 ineight 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.

I know the Borg always talks about "one true God".
Well how many Gods can there be?.
When I was a full bore PIMI at one time and directed to John 1:1 in my own NWT. And I felt like a complete idiot when I was pointed out in one verse ''god"" and in the same verse "God".
There's no getting around that.
You feel like an idiot.

Special Needs talk?
Usually its a form of begging\directive or demand. Something which the Borg imposes on its $heeple to instill mind control then gaslights its members to do something against their own will as a fear or thought control method.
A sophisticated form of control or undue influence.

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.
