Witness for Watchtower Reform
Have you thought about starting your own religion? That's what people do when they think they know better.
That's what the Judge did.
30,000 Christian religions started by men who knew better
1 started by the Christ
due to unforeseen circumstances, i need to say goodbye.
proverbs 14:16 nlt.
i have every faith that the governing body of jehovah's witnesses will bring about needed change very soon given the continuous pressure they face.

the crime is ,condoning the removal of and shunning of jw children ,who when older want to express freedom of religion and attend another church.
god created family unit ,gb destroys lives on all levels of family tree.
can this be the unforgivable sin?.
How bout me? I'm killing this topic...that's gotta be a sin too
"if you are a young person you need to face the fact you will never grow old in this system of things.. why not?
because all the evidence in fulfilment of bible prophecy indicates that this corrupt system is due to end in a few years...as a young person you will never fulfil any career that this system offers".
may 22 awake!
Thanks for those pages Dark!
Just a heads up that older Watchtowers are considered apostate material when someone notes that the org was/is in error.
Can you imagine that?

And what about changing the scriptures to fit what they want to believe? That's gotta be a sin against the Holy Spirit.

I think it is a sin against the Holy Ghost and God in general when they baptize in the name of the Father, the Son and God's organization.
Sorry, but according to the bible, that's not a valid baptism...
what's is the goal of this religion?.
i mean, if it's for money they could do a lot more like other religions do: tithing, paying for prayers from the gb, selling "miracles", selling "blessed" items, selling courses.. if its for power then what are they hoping to do with that power?
they dont seem to do anything.
To me the goal is more control over more membership. That's why there's always the urgency to join now before it's too late. It's always been a membership drive in my estimation.
just saying
i know that it must seem silly to ask, but my brother and his family think that the big a will arrive before they die.
i tried to explain to my brother that everyone else who has ever lived in the past has died and only jesus has [physically] rose from the dead.. it is amazing that anyone could buy that line.
what crazy cult culture that could make people believe such nonsense?!.
"Oh, the pain" I think of Dr. Smith on Lost in Space

Looking back, it must be kinda funny for most here, but as my brother and his family are still fully in, I am truly perplexed by the lack of reasoning that this cult surpresses.
The Truth Will Set You Free
TTWSYF.
i am of the opinion that the wt doctrine is influenced more by external factors that it is by internal ones.
one of the doctrines that has puzzled me for some time is the armageddon prediction of 1975. why would the wts make this prediction?
what was their real purpose?.
Membership drive that never ends. My thoughts are that the reason to "stay alive til 75" is the same reason that there were all those failed dates from the early 20th century. The same reason that they claimed the 20th century would be the last before Armageddon. The same reason that they speak of generations from 1914 and etc, etc.
It's a membership drive. Everything they do is for a membership drive. Join now or you won't be saved.
My elder brother goes to a local prison every week to gain membership only. No visiting for anyone who has no interest in the WTS, potential members only.
JWs who do not believe the end is near still promote it as a way of theocratic warfare [aka-lying for the Truth]
