on a trip to rome a few years ago i asked my friend (who is roman and jw) what the catholic faith thinks of jw.
he simply stated that jw is tolerated by the church but that really not much thought is given to them.
is there an official stance on jw by the catholics?
What does the Church think of JWs?
simple, just another protesting church. 1 of 40k currently opposed to the Church that Jesus started.
Dont take my word on it, just rewalk Christianity from now all the way back 2000 years. Do it century by century and see for yourself.

That’s what happens when you follow a “prophesy religion” as opposed to a legit faith.

the "slave's" understanding of the scriptures must be correct, so here's a clarification: ©.
(matthew 10:18) ....before governors and kings for jehovah's sake, for a witness..... (mark 13:9) ...be put on the stand......for jehovah's sake, for a witness to them.
(luke 24:47, 48) .
John 5:22 NWT
For the Father judges no one at all but has entrusted all the judging to the Son
Mathew 16:27 NWT
For the Son of man is to come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and the he will repay each one according to his behavior.
Revelation 22:12 NWT
Look! I am coming quickly, and the reward I give is with me, to repay each on according to his work.
Revelation 22:23 NWT
I am the Al’pha and the Ome’ga, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.

Duh, ALL judgement has been given to Jesus Christ. Jehovah judges NO ONE, Jesus Chris judges everyone AND brings his reward with him depending on YOUR judgement.

all christians: you don't have all of the bible (complete 88 books) yet, so can you have "all .
all truth!
" (see john 16:13).
The “universal Bible “ is that one which is most widely accepted. NOT the one with the most or least books, but the one that is most commonly accepted. That was the promise of the Holy Spirit.

i was going to write a new topic but now i just can't be bothered ... and i'll tell you why.. on my facebook feed a few days ago, i saw an interview of a couple of onlyfans girls, who said that they were active christians that attended church weekly.
and while i was going to spend some time writing about the virtues of our faith's strict moral standards ... i now understand that i'd only be flamed as a watchtower apologist.. that being said, out of the approximately 4 million onlyfan girls out there ... it obvious, that none are jehovah's witnesses..
There are many other people who I’m not part of “only fans “groups. North Koreans, Syrians, Libyans, Afghanistan’s, and a lot of other people that are highly controlled.
For the record, there was no victory in being forced into a decision. That’s what free will is all about.
The truth will set you free
rowan williams, the former archbishop of canterbury gave an interesting answer to the somewhat stark question, what’s the point of us existing?
as a christian, my starting point is that we exist because the most fundamental form of activity, energy, call it what you like, that is there, is love.
that is, it’s a willingness that the other should be.
God is love. Self love? No.
To be love you must have something/someone to love.
Hence, the Son/word of God.
The Father loves the Son (his own word)

in the march 2025 jw broadcast david splane in his morning worship talk mentioned that "some thought" that armageddon would come 40 years after 1914. such statements are usually meant to shift the blame of their own false predictions on to their members for speculating.
however, i was unable to find anything in print showing that such a thing was indeed taught by the society.
was this really a thing?.
True or not, so many falsehoods in WTS prophesy history, what’s another one?

what's with the attack (counsel) on husbands with no corresponding article for wives on the jan 2025 w that is being studied today?.
is there a point to that?.
control
asking jehovah’s witnesses to interpret specific passages is a great way to demonstrate their interpretive abuse.
got any clear examples?.
