  I'm not into conspiracy theories, but Google FEMA clergy response team. Would WT. throw the R&F under the bus to save it's own skin

  correct me if i'm wrong but about the same time this was activated was when the wt.

  came out with the "we may receive instructions that may not seem practical from a human standpoint".

  and it has been emphasized greatly regarding covid measures that "we must obey the superior authorities".

  @JeffT, rounding up the "Republicans" you say... Interesting,

  maybe just the Trumpublicans. Them Trumpeople can go! But,

  I personally tend to like the Lincoln Project and Libertarian folks,

  they can stay.

  I don't get it - Marriage in WT world

  by menrov in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in wt world, a marriage is only seen (considered) as legal if it is registered in the municipality (or similar governmental organisation).

  now, if you look at the scriptures, there was no requirement to have a marriage legally registered in order to be considered married.

  is it not strange that the wt subjects themselves to and adopts an worldly arrangement setup but governments rules by satan when it comes to a marital status?.

  Meleti at Beroean Pickets just put out this video interviwing Dr. James Penton of Apocalypse Delayed, about matrimony and what Rutherford taught about it which is very very different from current JW doctrine

  Worldwide Campaign Nov 2020

  by Listener in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  thanks petra and atlantis for sending the latest letter regarding the watchtowers plan for a worldwide campaign in november this year.

  i am wondering what they are planning to achieve from this campaign, particularly their focus on sending the watchtower 2020 no.

  2, titled "what is god's kingdom" to politicians, governments (and tribal leaders) around the world.. it would appear that this is their answer to governments who have put them in the spot light for their bad policies, particularly their handling of child abuse.

  Campaigns like this are the 0rganization's way of self pleasuring, and this Watchtower issue is wetter than a Bethel dorm pillow.

  yeah some links to an old Google Drive are dead, not a good idea to link to a google drive if you want a permanent link but the archive.org site has a tonne of old WT publications let the reader use discernment

  Purple Triangle

  by apostatethunder in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  has anyone noticed that the colour purple comes from mixing red and blue, and that the red triangle meant political prisioner and the blue triangle meant foreigner?

  purple also comes from mixing pink and blue, foreign homosexual or sexual offender.

  that's how the nazis wieved the bible students.

  aWhaaaaaasa! Bizarre is definitelly the word for this. But lookee here...

  Purple was expensive to make, therefore it was associated with the rich and royalty, so to mock Jesus as King of the Jews, they put a purple mantle on him, this led to it being associated with the followers of Jesus, the Bibelforscher/JWs were put in camps because they saw Jesus as their only king not the Fuehrer Hitler not any man and preached the Kingdom so their distinctive patch in the concentrstion camps was purple, easy peasy, no need for what sound like multichromatic LSD inspired explanations.

  I think Atlantis received a 2020 letter pertaining to regular pioneers, but it is in Portuguese, so I am not sure what it says. If someone who speaks Portuguese wants the letter, I'll send a link to them and maybe they could clue us in on what it says.
  

  Hi Petra (& Atlantis), Eu falo português, I speak portuguese,

  well Fall River Mass., Azorean variety that is, but it can't be

  that different from Brazilian Portuguese. Send me the letter

  and I'll translate it.

  BOE Update! (as of 2020-07-31)

  by Atlantis in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  body of elder letters, announcements, and so forth will be next to "none" unless more elders decide to contact us and help out.. atlantis has lost three elders in the past two years.

  two elders were disfellowshipped, and one disassociated and walk away a month ago.. when this happens receiving confidential documents is severed.

  the last announcement we received was 2020-07-23. i was not about to send out a childish letter on "mold" in the kingdom halls.. there are people out there out of work and concerned about what they will eat tomorrow, and the watchtower is concerned with mold!.

  Thanks Petra and Atlantis for all the work you have done! I was PIMO as an elder for a few years until I could no longer hold my tongue but that was way before all this electronic stuff. There will be others, the resistance will continue.

  What's Wrong with the Watchtower?

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  not sure who wrote this list a while back but i think it is worth a repeat....to be added to or subtracted from or modified...whatever.. what's wrong with the watchtower.

  "overlapping generations" - this teaching makes no sense.

  the word used by jesus is in the singular, not plural form.. .
