LOL LOL......a JW actually said that to you????????
Just another minor example of how their own people don't read or study.
i was informed today by a jw that the watchtower doesn't use images and propaganda to instil fear.
i would really like to see a compilation of all their armageddon illustrations.
maybe a thread or web page already exists that had this content.. the one i am really wanting is the most recent picture of the witnesses in the basement during the tribulation.. this will be a massive help so thank you..

i am not a regular visitor to this site, every now and then then i get twisted up about something i come back lol.
i am sure this has been discussed many times so a link to another thread would be great or if someone has the patience to explain again please?
i have read the july 15 2013 wt many times but i simply don't understand the significance of 1919 from the bible.
It is all tied to the fantasy of 1914; which cannot be proved from history OR the Bible
In addition, I've simplified the entire thing when people ask or I ask a JW who is teetering:
"Faithful and Discreet Slave......is that a parable/illustration or a prophecy"
After they answer...... have them read Luke 12:41 and ask "what did the Apostle Peter call it?"
You will get either a look of nausea or denial.
the july 15, 2015 study watchtower article entitled "your deliverance is getting near", along with the jw broadcasting video entitled "gerrit losch: fortified by "the prophetic word," and chapter 21 of the god's kingdom rules!
book presented a large amount of new light or clarified understanding of the events of the great tribulation.. here i am presenting it in chronological order -- this is the governing body's updated chronological order of events for the time right before the great tribulation through armageddon:.
the final sealing of the anointed occurs just prior to the outbreak of the tribulation.
so since the type anti-type doctrine has been dropped 'does this mean peter was right when at luke 12 :41 he said the faithful and discreet slave was just a parable?
'
not on the front page, not in the study articles, but carefully camouflaged in the questions from readers on page 18 (watchtower march 15, 2015).
you can bet most jws wont even read it..
there is no apology...just the usual excuses..
"hey brother wasa, come on back to the meetings.
" (after 10 years) so i respond that the situation with pedophiles is out of hand.
they tell me "we" elders have received tons of training on the subject, its not like it was 10 years ago.
Honestly?
Okay, I'll be honest: I'd tell them they have seconds to get off my porch......and I'd be holding my gun when I said it.......
Can someone explain why anyone even engages these jokes????
for only the second time in internet history, a video recording of a secret jehovah's witness apostasy trial has been published online on the jwstruggle youtube channel.
follow isaac's story here:.

Fantastic! Kudos the bravery of this guy.....
FOR OTHERS;
This is a typical judicial meeting. Three guys bouncing around...never really proving or adding anything to the person sitting there.
FOR ME:
Every time I see one of these 'sessions' with elders, I'm reminded how uneducated elders are.....how they basically know nothing. They cut right to basic questions: "Do you believe in Jehovah?"...............they just want a cut and dry answer so they can go gossip and drink beer.
I was constantly shocked at how uneducated my fellow elders were....they couldn't explain basic scriptures, ideas or morals. They got to where they were by driving around in mini-van's for 10 hours a month.....nothing more.
All they care about is protecting business assets....they immediately skip to 'the organization' in their questioning.
If you want to be horrified, just imagine what the elders were like when Candace Conti brought a life altering situation to their attention. DEVASTATINGLY stupid!!!!!!!!!!
i am not sure why more people aren't talking about this?.
the march 15 study edition of the wt has some major changes!
- all unbiblical "types and antitypes" are now dropped.
The best part about all of this?
You could walk up to almost any JW and ask them the significance of 1919.
They Won't know......blank stare.
Yet its the single most important date in their history; identifying them as God's organization.......ummm, allegedly.

to funny nice job....
I came away from this thinking that the man in the video just did exactly what JW's do to everyone else... on any given weekend......
...rudely invade your space; interrupt their day to tell them they have to agree with them or they look stupid. or worse, will die.
It would have been twice as effective to meekly stand, turn around and sheepishly ask if you could ask some questions.....for example: "Last time I came to this, they said we were in the last days, that people would never die....how did that change.....I need help?? I know 1914 is the key date, but that was over 100 years ago.....did I confuse that message?"
Being a goofball isn't going to make anyone THINK
