When a foundation is built on a lie, everything else that sits upon it is corrupted.
Biggest WTS lie is that THEY are an authority on the Bible. How did they get this authority? They only say that they are an authority. Nothing but words.

i would like to start a thread on lies that the watchtower and their reps have told.
surely we all have one or two that truly sticks out in our memories, no matter how much we would like to forget.
my favorite wt lie: the reason they don't want to release the name of the "scholars" who worked on the new world translation is because they do not want to accept "glory and honor" from others.

How bout the teaching that Jesus inspected all the churches and ONLY the WTS was worthy.
I mean, why wasn’t Jesus ALWAYS inspecting HIS churches?, HIS churches

Hands down
”lying for the ‘truth’ “

1. the continuity and visibility of the church.
the true church must be continuous from the apostolic age.
there is no room in christianity for a "gap" or interruption of thousands of years during which true christianity ceased to exist and then was revived in the form of another movement.
So, it sounds like you believe that the Catholic Church was started by Jesus and traces back to the apostles and gave the world the Bible (as well as other things)
yes?

no wonder they instructed congregation elders to throw away old literature from kingdon hall libraries.
The ‘truth’ in WTS world seems to be whatever the people in charge interpret. That’s why doctrines are unreliable at best.

i’m wondering what jws are taught or generally think the scriptures mean when they describe humanity has made in the image and likeness of god?
if there is a teaching on that.
I guess I wonder WHAT is the reflected image. God has no body or sexual identity. Being father is more position than a masculinity.

i get a few good laughs from the ex-jw facebook site: " ex jw humor will set you free".. i was laughing over dinner with 3rd gen over this post tonight: "question for the audience: i was driving around today and it hit me...there are big falsehoods (armageddon etc.
) that we were told, but also ridiculous falsehoods.
what is your favorite ridiculous falsehoods?
Millions living now will never die.
how could any sane person believe such nonsense?!?!?

was it jehovahs witnesses who acknowledge the church father as leading teachers?
this is a very interesting statement by justin.
do you accept origen as an authority when he said jesus is our god?
Those guys supposedly heard what they taught and believed from someone who supposedly knew the Apostles, but modern Scholarship has put those claims in doubt,
Hey Phizzy, I’ve never heard of that. What source/s of modern scholarship cast doubt?
There are literally thousands and thousands of pages of these historical documents.

The best part about the early church fathers is that they heard the real deal from the apostles themselves or from those who heard it from the apostles themselves.
Great opening to the topic that has been forgotten about in a system that promotes having a short memory…😉
