" The Watchtower makes it so that you could support either viewpoint simultaneously depending on exactly which portion of thier literature you wish to quote from_____SAHS
.
.
The WTS is good at trynna " Lead " people in different directions to try and cover their butts
They also claim that there is only one viewpoint and that comes from the Bible
.
.
" What is holy spirit ?
A comparison of Bible texts that refer to the holy spirit shows that it is spoken of as ' filling ' people. None of these expressions would be appropriate if the holy spirit were a person"___Reasoning from the Scriptures Book page 380
.
.
" Even though they explicitly say that thier decisions and appointments are merely guided by the holy spirit in that they supposedly follow the spirit inspired scriptures "___SAHS
.
.
Accordin' to the scriptures that the WTS " compared " in the Bible, you can only be " Filled" wit the holy spirit
And the guidance you follow comes from within
.
.
And yet under the chapter of FALSE PROPHETS in the Reasoning Book
this so called " Spirit Directed Organization " claim not to be inspired from within because they have made mistakes
.
.
" Have not Jehovah's Witnesses made errors in thier teachings ?
Jehovah's Witnesses do not claim to be inspired prophets, They have made mistakes."_____Reasoning from the Scriptures Book page 136
.
.
But on page 133 in the Reasoning book the WTS claim to meet all the qualifications of a True Prophet
that speak in the name of God
.
.
LOL
The Bible shows where the apostles imagine and questioned, NOT TAUGHT
things that need to be " ADJUSTED " wit " Nu light "
The WTS is trynna distance themselves from bein fingered as FALSE PROPHETS
.
.
Ain't workin". Cuz they have been fingered as such

Is there Racial harmony among the JWs?
by Amazing inwhen i joined the jws, racial issues were not really discussed much, other than some mention in the material given to me during my bible study in the "truth" book.
our kingdom hall had only one dark skinned individual, who is portguese, and one of the anointed.
i believe that he is now deceased.

Smiddy
Even the Catholics and Jews put thier lives on the line in the civil rights movement
The WTS teach that these people, like Martin luther King and Rosa Parks
Would be best served if they " Waited on the Kingdom "
.
.
Example of the forked tongue of the WTS :
" The intense persecution brought upon Jehovah's Witnesses has resulted in the being haled before police officials, judges, and rulers earth wide. Legal cases involving the Witnesses have numbered many thousands, and hundreds of these have been appealed to higher courts. This has had a profound effect on the law itself and has often fortified legal gaurantees of basic freedoms for people in gerneral. But this has not been the main objective of Jehovah's Witnesses."_____Proclaimers Book chapter 30 page 678
.
.
" Thier principle desire is to proclaim the good news of the Kingdom of God. Legal action that they take is not because they are social agitators or legal reformers."_____Proclaimers Book page 678
.
.
In other words. Jehovah's Witnesses claim they are not social agitators because they fought for the good news
.
.
Jehovah's Witnesses are Sooooooooooooooo dense

What Drew You To The Witnesses?
by minimus ini did believe for the first 30 years of my life that they had been picked by jehovah god to dispense the truth as best as imperfect humans could.
then, everything became questionable.
i had read anti jw books in the past but franz's books really got to me but not immediately.

A smile you can only get if you chewed Dentyne gum

Slick , sly , wicked, and the Devils son

.

" wasblind, you qouted from the reasoning book page 384
If Someone Says______
'Do you have the holy spirit ( or the Holy Ghost ) ? '
You might reply : ' Yes , and that is why I have come to your door today '
Or you could say : ' That is what makes it possible for me to share in the Christian ministry '
.
Now all that is saying is that by following the direction of the Bible to preach we are following the direction of the holy spirit_____Ben57
.
.
NO Ben. The WTS canned question specifically has the householder askin' the JW at the door, " Do you HAVE( not follow ) the holy spirit"
and the Jehovah's Witness canned answer said " YES"
.
.
" What is the holy spirit ?
A comparison of Bible texts that refer to the holy spirit shows that it is spoken of as ' filling' people; they can be 'baptized' with it; and they can be " Annointed " with it . None of these expressions would be appropriate if the holy spirit were a person "____Reasoning from the scriptures Book page 380
.
Ben. Think. People are said to be filled wit the holy spirit . not follow it around
.
.
" Not because the holy spirit in some miraculous way has literally moved the individual "_____Ben57
Ben. The WTS disagrees. Read thier canned reply. They said " This is what makes it possible for them to ( Literally ) share in the ministry "
.
.
" But because that individual has read the Bible that was inspired by holy spirit and following the direction to preach.____Ben57
Again BEN. People are said to be FILLED wit the holy spirit . It is said to be an " Active force " within them that causes them to do.
.
.
The WTS claims they are a " Spirit directed organization "
but also claim they are not inspired
.
.
You can't separate inspiration from the holy spirit Ben
they are one in the same
.
.
Just as the holy spirit inspired the writers of the Bible

" The WT does not teach that the holy spirit has an active roll in appointing elders " _____Ben57
.
.
" Just as Jehovah uses holy spirit to appoint a man, by means of that same holy spirit , Jehovah will remove from office those overseers who fail to manifest the fruitage of the spirit "______Organized to do Jehovah's Will Book page 38

LOL. Like other apologist before you. Big Fail

WTS not only claimed that elder appointments were directed by Holy Spirit
But each and every Witness in the ministry make up this so called " Spirit directed organization "

.

Inspiration is like a light switch to a Jehovah's Witness
turn on at will
.
.
When confronted on flip flops and false prophecies
lights out " We never claim to be inspired by holy spirit "
.
.
How can you separate the two ??????
