  Governing Body trying to control marital relationships

  by Whynot in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  4 years ago during the circuit overseers visit he asked a rather innapropriate question from the platform.

  i say it's innapropriate because i think it's wrong to tell happy married couples how to love each other and much more wrong it is to tell them they should love their children less.. he said: "mothers, who should you love more your children or your husband?

  " i think most mothers will quickly say you should love your children more.

  TD-Good job!!!

  Your spouse should be #1. This is your partner and together, you raise your children by giving them examples of your commitment to each other. Husbands and wives are to 'cling to each other' and are the leaders of their family team [team Jones, team Doe, team Ricktover, what ever]

  In Greek there are several words for love that describe different kinds of love.

  There is a different word for the love of a spouse [eros I think] compared to the love that you have for your child, compared to the love of a place or a food, etc.

  Point is, that if you do not put your spouse first, then you are NOT giving a good example for your children [who should learn that your spouse is #1].

  No question that the WTS tries to control marital relationships. In other news, water is wet.

  Attend 1 JW wedding and listen to how the wife MUST obey the husband, but NOTHING about how the husband MUST give his life for his wife. It's in the same chapter yet it is not read aloud.

  Teachings/beliefs that fade into oblivion without explanation.

  by smiddy3 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  "millions now living will never die" that teaching persisted for a number of years from the early 1920`s ,sad to say that their would not be anywhere near millions alive today.and with another few years their won`t be anybody alive .. the year 1925 was supposed to see the resurrection of faithful men of old such as abraham issac and jacob and noah who were to be princes in the earth.

  of course no such thing happened and we don`t here anything more about that prediction anymore.. the time period between adams creation and eves creation was an excuse why armageddon was delayed in about october 1975 because they didn`t know how much time had elapsed between the two.

  that`s all forgotten about now.. six thousand years of human history was supposed to have ended in about october 1872 according to studies in the scriptures vol.2 1906 , the "time is at hand" page 11 (forward 1916 ) puts the start of the one thousand year reign of jesus christ as of the year 1873. so in 1906 they the i.b.s.a.

  haven't heard about any new teaching or position, but I recall a lot of pride and scholarly jocularity about the publication booklet 'Should You Believe in the Trinity'

  Not a word from the WTS about the discontinued booklet...

  I wonder why,,,,,

  V- So does your history and the WTBTS version of their history match up, agree ?

  How could it match up? The WTS is famous for it's 'revisionist history' The WTS doesn't like it's current position? Rewrite the history in their review books. Hello Nazi Germany, Hello 'should you believe in the trinity'

  hey everyone.... i'm new to this but i would like to run my experience with medical marijuana past you.

  i'm 48 years of age and have been in the truth for my whole life.. i suffer from ankylosing spondilitis and have for many many years.

  it's a debilitating form of spinal arthritis and the symptoms of this auto-immune disorder affect more than my spine.

  I think grass is a gift from God to humanity. Much like wine. See GEN 1

  11 Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.” And it was so. 12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good

  you'll never get a puritan to respect the foe.. .
