  Lies, Deception and Half-truths. Today's WT

  by Slidin Fast in

  2. bible

  today's wt was a masterly study on how to manipulate the faithful's attitude to the study of facts and truth.

  in the last clam of september we have this justification of a half-truth uttered by jesus..

  joh 7:8-10 —did jesus lie to his unbelieving fleshly brothers?

  "A story that is only 10 percent true is 100 percent misleading."

  They will try to discredit whole stories by finding one or two small inaccuracies, that is the whole point of this quote.

  They also said not to pass along "negative or unsubstantiated reports," even if it is substantiated you still shouldn't pass it along if it is negative. So, that's why zero people know about the 35 million dollar lawsuit!

  More than that they showed that they don't really believe all the end time propaganda that they spew forth. They have been very quiet in WT lately regarding their condemnation of the UN. In their latest piece on "Gog of Magog" they say it represents a "Coalition of Nations" but do not refer to UN as they have in the past. Coincidence?

  Just search for United Nations in the Awake and look for articles from the nineties you'll find a bunch of vague praise for an organization they believe is controlled by Satan.

  Does this sound like a quote about an organization you think is going to bring about "The Great Tribulation?"

  FROM its very inception, the United Nations organization has been interested in children and their problems. At the end of 1946, it established the United NationsInternational Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF) as a temporary measure to care for children in areas devastated by war.
  In 1953 this emergency fund was turned into a permanent organization. Although it is now officially known as the United Nations Children’s Fund, it retained its original acronym, UNICEF. Thus, for over half a century, UNICEF has been providing children throughout the world with food, clothing, and medical care and has been trying to look after children’s needs in general.

  You can also find articles in the Awake from that time period that used coded language to try to look like they were promoting the UN. However, a JW reading it would get a different meaning due to already being indoctrinated that the UN is evil and a false prophet.

  Jehovah’s Witnesses firmly believe that the United Nations is going to play a major role in world events in the very near future. No doubt these developments will be very exciting. And the results will have a far-reaching impact on your life. We urge you to ask Jehovah’s Witnesses in your neighborhood for more details on this matter. The Bible clearly paints a picture showing that the United Nations will very shortly be given power and authority. The UN will then do some very astonishing things that may well amaze you. And you will be thrilled to learn that there is yet a better way near at hand that will surely bring eternal peace and security!

  What was the EXACT exJW website you first visited and why EXACTLY did you visit it?

  by ILoveTTATT2 in

  i had two episodes of visiting exjw websites:one time around 2007 when i just googled "jehovah´s witnesses" and dared to look at those sites.

  i was scared and i promised myself i would never come back to them.

  however, that one didn´t really count.the moment that woke me up was this:i got to know that whitney heichel was a jw and murdered by another jw, because i overheard that conversation in a kingdom hall.i looked up the news and in one of the news comments, there was one where an exjw was complaining that they were hijacking her funeral and they were really trying to downplay the fact that her murderer was a jw... and then it said "visit jwfacts.com"... which i did.and the rest... is history.what exactly got you onto an apostate website when you woke up?

  The first sites I visited were archival sites that had old copies of WT publications like "Millions Now Living Will Never Die," I wanted to see what was really printed vs what WT always talked about. Then I checked out the UN stuff on JW facts I liked that all their stuff was backed up with sources you could examine yourself. Then I started browsing JWRecovery just to see other peoples unfiltered opinions (which you won't get at the KH). Finally, they shut down and I made an account here.

  LOL Like they know anything about fine wine! They probably have uber eats deliver them McDonalds everyday. On a serious note though, this guy needs to get some better illustrations. This illustration and the bread one were both terribly convoluted and really didn't make a whole lot of sense.

  Pretty much the same, maybe ever so slightly better. Why? Does this have something to do with Trump? LOL
