49The Truth about the bible
by TTWSYF init really is common sense, but nobody here seems to recognize or acknowledge this blatant and obvious truth.. the holy bible is the result of the catholic liturgy.
they used these scriptures in their religious practices and confirmed which books would and would not be part of their cannon.
they picked, preserved and promoted these books and gave 'the word of god' to the world.. i know that pisses off some folks, but it is the truth [not the 'truth'tm].

Bluesbrother correctly stated I agree that it may be unfair to draw conclusions from one snap shot BUT we all know the Witnesses are taught not to give to homeless etc.
If I may add that JWs are also taught not to feed the hungry, cloth the naked, give alms to widows or orphans, not to educate the ignorant and most importantly to not love your neighbor...unless they're a JW in good standing

A little more biblical truth for any interested
Because the bible was not confirmed until [around] 381ad, You really cannot/should not look at the bible as the start all/end all on Christianity as some Christian faiths do. There are roughly 350 years of documented history predating this biblical confirmation. Over 30,000 pages of written history from the early Christian church.
Imagine [if you're an american] looking back on your national history staring around 1970. Sure, you get your view of America from the Vietnam war going forward. What you'd miss is the Cuban missile crisis, WW2, WW1, The civil war, [about 25 false end of the world JW prophesies..lol], the War of 1812, the Revolutionary war, The Salem witch trials, the first Thanksgiving and the Pilgrims landing on Plymouth Rock. You would not have a comprehensive view of our history. The US history did not start with President Nixon, it started centuries before.
The same can be said about the Church that Jesus started. He never said 'Write these things down and we'll have a Christian community'. He did say 'Peter, you are rock and on this rock I will build my church' He also said 'Do all that I command and I will be with you til the end of this age' Although it is true that there were other groups that followed some of the teachings and some of the commands of Jesus, only one church was commissioned by Jesus and was built/ promoted by his chosen apostles.

Ya think? How was mental growth not stunted? Don't ask questions. Everyone else is gonna die at Armageddon, everyone else is controlled by Satan and is trying to lead you astray. Don;t try to learn from any other sources but us. WE HAVE THE TRUTH.
I could go on for days, but my point is made

The problem with the WTS/Jehovahs Witnesses is that they MUST lie to assert an authority that they do not possess, The reason that their teachings change so often is because when new people get control of the governing body, they interpret scriptures with their own personal views and promote those flawed views in AWAKE and THE WATCHTOWER. That is why they follow a rigorous regiment of revisionist history not only of the scriptures, but also of their own short and complicated history.
How do we know this? Because Jesus inspected all the churches in 1914 and found..blah, blah, blah.
Really? Says who? An organization that was founded in America some 150 years ago? From a snake oil salesman who didn't like the idea of hell. Guess what, not one likes the idea of hell. Doesn't mean that it doesn;t exist.
A better question as to who has the authority to interpret the bible has everything to do with simple, common sense.
Who gave the world the bible and promoted it as the word of God? A_The Catholic Church
Why did they compile the bible? A_To use in their liturgical practices
Why would you listen to someone elses' interpretation? A_ Because you've been duped
What about the Great Apostasy? A_Never happened, just another JW lie
The bible states unequivocally that Jesus commissioned the apostles to build HIS Church. A Church to Jesus, hence the term "Christianity" and not "Jehovahanity"
