The Kings in Israeal point was one I brought up to my JW father years ago, I basically made the point that the GB had usurped the position reserved for Jesus.
It didn't go well. The GB/Organization/jw.org is their golden calf.
i was just pondering on this matter.
jws pride themselves on being loyal and obedient to the gb "even when it makes no sense from a human standpoint".
what they fail to realize is that obedience is conditional.

a "sister" i know is in her late 80's.
her friend was 90 and on her deathbed.
(just a week ago.
The few i had dealings with years ago just wanted to go to sleep and wake up in the paradise.
What would it matter at that age? Personally I'd just want the pain and suffering to go away, not have to live throught the so-called Great Tribulation.
good morning.
want to attend?.
kingdom ministry school.
I guess Jesus advice to 'stop judging' doesn't apply in God's Organization.
q. why do people need all these mags and books?.
a. to understand the bible.. reasoning: asked her to read 1 john 2:27. also matt 28:19,20. what info leads to baptism?
teaching whose instruction?
Reasoning with them on scriptures is an ok place to start from.
Calling them a cult and going to the subliminal images makes you look like an idiot.
when confronted with all of the inconsistencies and atrocities of the bible, many believers invariably claim that they don't base their faith in christ on what's written in the bible.
so what is the basis then, if not scripture?.
and please don't tell me "the lord has revealed himself to me".
When God did command for some people to be killed, it was for justice purpose.
Like all of the children killed at Noah's flood? Or the kids killed by the bear for making fun of a bald guy? Yeah, thats Godlike justice for you.
Or how about all of the women and children killed in Numbers 31? Simply because not enough of them were killed before capture?
Not buying it.

first, message received, i get it.
these guys are way out there and full of themselves.
The writing style of the letters to these clowns is all same. Its simply a way to recruit people out of the WT cult into their own little version of Christianity.
I don't care, any enemy of my enemy is my friend. Once they told the story of several hundred partaking at the Meh-morial in Nevada I knew they were master bullshitters. But if they can get people to free their mind in any way I don't care how many lies they tell on their shitty website.
this is a cut and paste for australia's canberra times, my only comment is to remark on the ordinariness of his rise from a chinese perspective.. i could likely post a thousand stories of people like jack ma, growing up in relative poverty, and now- through hard work and an eye for an opportunity- extremely rich.
ma's story is the story of nearly all of them.
it's part of what makes the story of china's rise so fascinating.
Thanks for that, nice to read about the man behind the company.
Been following the IPO for a few months, will be interesting to see where the company opens tomorrow, I'll guess around $95 a share.
dear brothers:.
re: personal literature supply.
reducing existing stock at the branch office before the revisions are released.
Well they are always looking to save $$$ where they can.
Im sure plenty of JWs have loads of trash filling up their basements. Get it back to the KH and into circulation and there is less demand from HQ.
Business 101.
the elder was just giddy with excitement!
20,000 hours put in!
14,000 tracts and brochures!
That was a wake up call for me, when I had those parts and had to try to find an "experience" from one of the pioneers in the congo.
When the best experiences were always "nice conversations" i realized I was participating in a circle jerk.
the latest wtaf dub convention video...enjoy.
