"The Truth" - It's just a made up Reality Show

by stumbledbyothers in

jehovah is a made up name.

not god's real name.. therefore jehovah's witnesses is a made up name for a made-up god.. therefore when you got baptized, you got baptized in the name of a made up religion backed up by a made up god's name.. therefore jesus did not appoint the governing body since it wasn't in existence then.

no wonder the july 2020 wt tells you that you have to be convinced god has an organization.. what does this mean?

There are some 30,000- 40,000 different Christian sects/faiths.

39,999 started by men and women who thought that they knew better than the one and only church started by Jesus Christ himself. That is why the church that Jesus started is credited with giving the world charities, hospitals, old age homes, universities, the free market economy, etc, etc

All of the other 39,999 protesting churchs' fruits all together just cannot compare.

Who was that man that started the WTS again? Jesus? No. Just like WTS fruits. Non existent

'I really thought that I'd see the end of this system of things before I die'

by sinboi in

just imagine.

but the moment when i was given my army uniform, the truth fell on me.

Luke 3:14

Then some soldiers asked him, “And what should we do?” He replied, “Don’t extort money and don’t accuse people falsely—be content with your pay.”

1 Corinthians 15:26

by Doug Mason in

you will die.

i will die.

those who have gone before us, the great and the small, the powerful and the weak, have shared the common fate of dying.

On my previous post, let me clarify that I understand that being raised in the 'truth' is different.

We all give our parents the 'benefit of the doubt' and believe many things because we trust their honesty and integrity. That is a given.

But, if you were converted from what ever faith was your previous, and you fell for the 'millions living now will never die'. I dunno? A not nice selfish thought, and not very likely, historically speaking, to say the least

Thinking that you won't taste death?

Crazy, just plain crazy. Beyond being duped , it's a total disconnect with reality.

brothers and sisters associated with the watchtower society may 9, 2020. i have tried to inform you of the necessary adjustments you ought to take in order to truly be in the truth.

but my efforts have remained fruitless.

you well know the biblical procedure.

It seems all this mental energy could be made of better use..... Have you considered applying your intellectual acuities to something truly meaningful and constructive?

I agree with the better use of your mental energy. Jesus never said that we should use the bible as our guide to Christianity or life or anything like that. He did say "Do ALL that I have commanded you and I will be with you until the end of the age"

I don't think that you have realized that you have put all of your faith into someone else's interpretation of a Catholic book.

Make no mistake, the bible is a Catholic book compiled, propagated and protected by them. Somebody sold you on the idea that they knew a better interpretation then the people who gave it to the world. Of course, this type of thinking is at odds with basic common sense. The people who gave the world the bible would know better than a random group of unguided readers. That is why the WTS has a fluid interpretation of the scriptures that changes whenever they change leadership. Think about it.

The bible is not and never was a guide to Christianity, it is a tool used to instruct and correct moral questions and was/is used in the Catholic liturgy. Perhaps some serious studies into accredited historical sources would serve you with real truth instead of the corrupted truth that you have been taught. Tough pill to swallow I know. but...

When do the 2300 days begin?

by Kosonen in

when to begin the countdown of the 2300 days?

to get an idea, it could be helpful to discern when those days end relative to time times and half a time.. i see a possibility that the 2300 days end the same day as the 1260 days.

that is because the woman in revelation 12 will be fed 1260 days.

TTWSYF

I would say this to Kosonen and any other protestant.

The idea that you [or anyone else] would know the hour, the day, the month or even the effin year is ludicrous.

Every generation ever [even before Jesus] thought that they would witness the apocalypse. .

EVERYONE WHO EVER LIVED, ended up dead.

EVERYONE WHO EVER LIVED WILL DIE!
ANYONE WHO THINKS THAT THEY WILL NOT DIE IS DELUSIONAL.

THAT IS THE "TRUTH"

My sister just sent me this text.

by Brainfloss in

my sister sent me this text a few minutes ago.

what does she know about my relationship with jehovah?

it was followed up by a bunch of links to jw org problem is dialog is not possible her side is the only one to be heard.

TTWSYF

For 30+ years I have reasoned with my brother about the errors of the WTS policies.

Biblical contradictions to the WTS ever changing theology. The whole 'Lying for the Truth'tm thing..aka theocratic warfare.

His reasoning ALWAYS came back to a circular argument which totally deflected what ever issue was being discussed and brought up another point of contention.

Dismantle that point and another is brought up without an acknowledgement of the initial 2 or three points which had been proven false.

You will not reach them without first letting them figure it out on their own first.

You cannot control their decisions, but you can always ask God through prayer and that is never a wasted effort IMsomewhatHO

Jesus ministry was all about telling people about the hope of the kingdom of the heavens AND helping people in the meantime

by nowwhat? in

so what part of this don't jws understand?

franklin graham son of billy just set up a field hospital in ny central park.

he is giving people practical help now and giving hope by proclaiming look to jesus as their saviour.

TTWSYF

When I look closely at the WTS, I do not see any fruits at all. Only the tedious works and hardships that some of my family must endure without the benefit of fruits. Works that are, in my opinion, not blessed by the Lord, that's why there's no fruit.....
