What is SIN?
by Fernando in
1. watchtower
2. bible
once again i tried to post a brief reply on another thread, but i started sharing some of my exit story, and it turned into a thesis, again... darn.... it seemed better to spare the thread and start a new topic.... .

when jesus was on earth the only sins he was preoccupied with and constantly spoke against were religious sins (matt 15 and 23 esp v15).. religionists however to hide their sins are preoccupied with and constantly speak against sexual sins plus a whole laundry list of do's and don'ts.

their legalism and moralism actually lead them away from god and his "plan of salvation" as embodied in the "good news".. this is why governing body member raymond franz left religion/ists.

Top 10 questions the WBT$ and GB fear most?
by Fernando in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
the anointed (the christs) or fds (ruling religious clergy class) are placed above the gb in 1971, then below the elders (pharisees) in 2007, and back above the gb in 2009. .

what next in the sanhedrin's (gb's) perpetual, unrepentant, and inane vignette of deception, smoke and mirrors, as well as spiritual blindness, confusion, inebriation, and insanity perpetrated on the laity (dumb sheeple)?

WHY DO ELDERS LABEL THOSE EXPOSING ERROR AS APOSTATES?
by Fernando in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
first topic posted - sorry if it is a bit too long.. why do elders accept this absurd teaching of demons: "anyone rejecting what is not of god, is rejecting god"???.

evidence that these elders - not their victims - are apostates (wolves, weeds, the man of lawlessness, the antichrist, practicers of spiritism).

having gone through extreme adversity and consequently deep spiritual waters our family has come to understand apostasy to fundamentally mean the following:.
