  one flock, one shepard

  did anyone else notice that in the watchtower its bringing out jesus is the mediator only for the 144,00. and where did they get it that jesus didn't partake of the emblems?!?!

  it's crazy how true that scripture is that states that satan blinds the minds of the unbelievers.

  but what i don't understand is do you think the governing body is doing this type of stuff like putting stuff in the watchtower like this on purpose since they have the issues only for members of the congregration?

  Baptizing in the name of the holy spirit?

  2. beliefs

  this came across as really interesting to me seeing as how they change up the baptismal questions so many times.but thats a lie as a matter of fact the updated questions look like this: .

  1.on the basis of the sacrifice of jesus christ, do you repent of your sins and dedicate yourself to jehovah to do his will?

  2.do you understand that your dedication and baptism identify you as one of jehovah witnesses in line with god's spirit-directed organization?

  i was watching cnn, an d they asked this question and this one lady called in and claimed she wasn't raised in a religious household.

  but she remembered when she was in elementary school that this jw girl asked her if she was spritual she said no, then the jw told her she would go to hell.

  new watchtower, new songbook, new funeral arrangement *gasps*!!!

  ok so i went to a jehovah witness funeral last week and i noticed a lot of changes.

  first of all it did not start with a prayer, and they had one brother come up in the beginning and talk about the diseased relatives family and their qualities then had another brother come up and do the scriptures and then the brother who came up at the start to close with a prayer and no song.

  and also there was only one prayer the whole time and that was at the end.

  mine was filled with shock and anger but mostly anger.

  it made me feel that way because i have never been lied to like that growing up in the religion with it being all you know.
