Absolved

by watson in

the watchtower study today was unbelievable.

there is no longer any accountability for the boys at the top.

see paragraph 10, if you dare.. .

New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures...

by Joliette in

if i'm not mistaken, werent the committee of brothers who translated this bible: nathan knorr, albert scheoder, george gangas, fredrick franz.

wasnt fredrick franz the only scholarly person (or somewhat scholarly) person who was 'somewhat qualified' to translate any type of biblical greek, hebrew, etc?.

Read you post, will you?

This is not intelligible. Please re-state.

Amazing how all of you can day & night accuse and insult us- and then whine like a wittle baby when I dish it back...

Your response was asinine and did not even come close to supporting your claim of NWT "supreme superiority".

You are nothing but an incorrigible man seeking to toot his own horn and damn anyone with opposing views to your "wealth of knowledge."

I salute you! On your death bed you can look back on a life of "giving it to" those pesky apostates of JWN!

Reinstated But Not Forgiven?

by Pitchess Co-Gen in

have there been stories of people reinstated but not forgiven by there congregations.

i'm think about coming back and thats one of my fears.. .

sabastious

Pitchess, of course there are grudge holders in every facet of life.

Why would you need for-instances? It' very possible that you could face something like that, and it's very possible that they will accept you with open arms.

Why would experiences change your mind one way or the other?

When you are reinstated you are so with "limited privileges in the cong."

So every person who is reinstated is not fully forgiven.

JW's don't go church... they go to the Kingdom hall

by loosie in

do you remember correcting everyone who would ask you where you go to church.

the jw reply was usually something like....we don't go to a church we go a kingdom hall.

jw's just have to be different you know.. yesterday i went to my citys museum.

Definition of the word Church

^ Oh man, JWs wont be caught dead being refered to as a "congregation""The company of all Christians regarded as a spiritual body"

Good Question, Chalam!

Does anyone else understand this type of MJW response as condescending?

That's why he's on the forum, to talk down to people who don't believe the same as him.

This guy is a patronizing sonbich, and I sure as hell aint giving him any more of my time.

Good day (god I wish this forum had an ignore function).

why do you think they can't give ONE SINGLE EXAMPLE of a Mistake made?

No one wants to argue with you, is that hard for you to understand?

You aren't here for truth, you're here to defend your bias translation of the Bible and your backwards cult of a religion. You have an agenda, and I would wager that you don't even know your own glaring bias. You probably get your panties in a twist if anyone calls you bias because "you have spent so much time proving it to yourself" by bias and subjective means of course.

They, as the Jews did with God's Name, try to HIDE what it really is!

I agree, every Bible is bias.

The NWT is no different.
