Bunker Video Sparks Family Drama!

by Wasanelder Once in

i guess you are guaranteed to survive the "great tribulation" if you don't be a "kevin".

my family members are doubling down on their fervor about meeting attendance.

they are having an effect on some of my wishy washy long time inactive family.

It would be really great if he put his re- done video up for others to see....is he worried about copyright issues with JW.org?

Extreme? Yes. But I got 6 members of my family out by encouraging them to report the wrongdoing of a Branch Committee member to the JWs and the governing body. I stood back and sadly watched the Watchtower lawyers go after my family to destroy them. It took a while but my family eventually realized that god is not with these people.

Is it possible to say what the wrongdoing was?

Diogenesister

Contempt of court, case in San Diego county really disgusts me!

by Crazyguy in

this case has to be talked about by ever awake jw every apostate everyone.

this case because they refuse to hand over documents the court already knows they have because they handed them over before but heavily redacted, is the icing on the cake!

this case shows thier evil plain and simple.

How is it possibly helping to protect children, our most vulnerable members of society, by digging in their heels over a point like this??

The society should bend over backwards to be seen to be co-operative!

Surely by doing so, "a fine witness would be given

ike

How is this in ANYWAY respecting/ cooperating with " the superior authorities"...... Imagine if a regular publisher behaved like this in a normal court case, say, over taxes etc. It's one rule for the Watchtower Society and one for everyone else. Sick.

here i am

by notalone in

i was a 4th gen born in.my adult children were the 5th.

my mother was one of the newly'anointed' we have all left.

i have been lurking since october.i was really too terrified someone would find out who i was and what would happen.well we are out now so here is a part of my story.

Diogenesister

Incredible. I can't imagine the awful things you've suffered if even your anointed ( I assume elderly) mother left too. Revoke your " implied invitation"?!!! As I'm sure you are now aware that is purely a legal, not theocratic, term....used for such incidents as visitors who vandalize, steal from or are violent/ abusive toward congregants...not used against long term Christian families whose children have been sexually abused!!!

Its funny how keeping the congregation " clean" is invoked to maintain image rarther than protect children!! Why is that? To my mind the maini reason is that the society, unlike Christ, cares only for adult males...and the individual is worth less than nothing, cult leaders are everything. Even happening to committed famallies like yourselves.

I am so sorry your poor daughter had to go through this...but so very glad you have remained united as a family. Welcome😀

Who ‘wondered admiringly’ at the League of Nations to fulfill Revelation 17:8?

by Gilgamesh in

i didn't recall this topic being discussed for quite a while, so i am including the first half of an article i posted on another site: , .

who ‘wondered admiringly’ at the league of nations to fulfill revelation 17:8?.

summary: the watchtower explains that the initial beast of revelation 17:8 is the “league of nations.” revelation 17:8 (nwt) says that persons whose names have not been written upon the scroll of life will “wonder admiringly” at this beast.

Diogenesister

Changing the OP, but out of interest.....

but their names have not been written upon the scroll of life from the founding of the world. [NWT Reference Edition]

Now if that's not predestination I don't know what is.

spiritual crisis

by indi7 in

two years ago i had a kundalini experience.

i felt energy or chi pulsate through each of my chakras, from the base of the spine to the crown of the head, then back, after that i felt like a newborn for three days.

i felt like i was reborn spiritually and god gave me a new name - indi.

Diogenesister

Sure you don't mean KUNILINGUS experience?

Satan Wants to Be Like God and Have Mankind Worship Him.....Yeah Right....

by xjwsrock in

i heard this tired line re-ran again at this year's convention.

satan supposedly wanted to be like god and be worshiped - you know, the whole pride thing.

they really made a big deal about how his "thoughts" led to his sin in the garden of eden and how we need to control our thoughts to avoid the same result.

Diogenesister

There's only one ego- maniac that wants to be worshipped.....which is kinda weird if you are " perfect"

Is Knowing/Using The Name Of God Important?

by Vanderhoven7 in

i say no.. although the tetragrammaton appears close to 7000 times in the hebrew scriptures, the personal name of god does not.

seems to me that god made sure that both that his personal name does not appear therein and that no one would ever actually know it or learn even how to pronounce it.

he also made sure that his name (baring 3 hallelujahs in revelation) did not appear in the new testament.

Diogenesister

Terry The idea of "giving" to God is perhaps the most peculiar of all human ideas. God needs nothing and can make no use of something burned on an altar. The fable spinners, however, like to assure us God's nostrils can be pleased by the aroma of burnt oxen. The Physics of molecules and the distance from Earth to Heaven was much more (ignorant) simple in the old days.

The whole concept of blood sacrifice , the " sweet savour"(why do I always hear that expression in a Jamaican accent) is more revolting than the " shoot" that the ancient Jews found so terrible. At least a penis is harmless.
