How To Prove That The "Truth" Is Founded On Negativity And Hate

by metatron in

wanna prove to yourself that jws can't let go of negativity and hate?

that it is at the core of their faith?

ask the following question:.

you are right- God has intervened several times against humans ruling themselves, the tower of babel, the time of the flood when God let angels materialize, take wives, produce violent offspring, and the god blamed humankind and destroyed them in the flood; sending satan & his demons to the earth and letting Satan and his demons rule it.

Also, God did not allow PERFECT humans to rule.

And God put Satan in the Garden of Eden.

If human's COULD solve all problems and make earth a paradise the gb would be against it. They have to be vindicated by everyone else being destroyed by God at armageddon.

metatron- the gb and witnesses will only be happy if the destruction of all non witnesses comes. Very good op!

Trinitarians! Who is Jesus Christ's father the Holy Spirit or the Father?

by booker-t in

this is one question that trinitarians try to avoid because they have created a very embarrassing problem.

the bible is very clear when the angel tells mary that holy spirit will overshadow her and she will become pregnant.

the angel does not say the father will overshadow her but the holy spirit will and if the holy spirit is a person that would make him the father of jesus.

Jesus did not believe he was part of a triune god in the Bible and neither did his early followers. They were all Jews and we have only ONE God. The concept of a 3 in 1 god is not acceptible to Jewish people. Jesus was clear that he was the son of God and this is how his Jewish followers believed him to be.

I am not the same person as my father.

I went to one of my previous halls remodel today and they did not recognize me...

by confusedandalone in

i definitely look like a worldly person by jw standards... however i went to my old hall because they are remodelling and they are in the final p[hase.

it was not on purpose.

i had bnusiness on the street and happened to drive past.

Phizzy- many years ago my brother & I were going door to door and met a man asking us interesting questions and who wanted to share a scripture with us. But my brother said to him "You are an apostate!' and walked away. I left too but asked my brother why he refused to look at the scripture. He insited he will not talk to any apostates.

So he was afraid as well. I thought we should have let the guy share the scripture with us after all we were going door to door looking for those interested in a Bible Study, weren't we?

Witnesses are truly afraid of "apostates'.

I'm sorry that happened to you too but that must have been so funny seeing that brother run away from you- "Oh no! an apostate! run for your life!"

skeeter 1-

that is most likely the freakiest thing I have ever seen. I cannot imagine why anyone would do that to themselves, an extremly sick kid who needs much mental help. Gross and disgusting. I am glad I did not see him in person. I would never want to see something like that in person.

read and weep, watchtower.

your day is coming.. think anyone will bother to read your 'dick-and-jane' magazines on jw.org - much less contribute for them?.

factfinder

Since witnesses will be reading the w&g it will have a guarenteed readership.

But it is possible that the wts will make one or both of them bi-monthly in time, even quarterly and use tracts on the non magazine months or just keep using the mags for several months.
