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There are literally thousands and thousands of pages of these historical documents.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…😉

Things you can not say in "field service" anymore.
by greenhornet inmany years ago we would be on someone's doorstep, when waiting for the house holder to come to the door we say something like ... yea after the big a this is going to be my house.
imagine saying that today with the common use of doorbell cameras and the squatting problem .

Why Do JW's Believe that Hell is Symbolic When the Disciples of the Apostles believed it Was Literal ?
by Sea Breeze inlooks like the early christians believed jesus when he warned about hell over 40 times.
why don't the jw's do the same?.
from “the epistle of barnabas” (70-130ad).

So, why do JWs believe that hell is not what the Jesus, the apostles and the hearers of the apostles (church fathers) taught it was?
Did someone answer and I missed it? Just asking…🤔

Sea Breeze,
you are exactly right. When going rogue anything goes. That’s why there are 40,099-50,000 different types of Christianities. People read the Bible and totally reject the historical legitimate reasons for its use and development. As if they know better than the earliest Christians. I guess that’s what you say when you realize that you’re not actually a restoration movement, but rather a new semi faith.
