Another Apostate "lie" is that disobeying the Watchtower manmade rules can lead to one being disfellowshipped and shunned to the extreme, even by family members.

Another Apostate lie is that they are a very strict high control cult; that their leaders in New York have endless rules on just about every aspect of life including bedroom matters.

"Changing the meaning of words is not a clarification."
Yes, another Apostate lie is that the latest Watchtower new light on the generation that would not pass away was a desperation move since all the people born in 1914 were either dead or dying.

Indeed! It's like they are entirely blind to Matthew 25, the sheep and the goats parable.

One of the big Apostate "lies" is that Jehovah's Witnesses don't help the poor.

"Jehovah's Witnesses cannot refute the facts in the so-called “ lies” against them, and when they do, they shamelessly lie and tell half-truths to defend their mind-controlling sect.
Their New York based leaders tell them that anything negative said about their sect is a “ lie “ from “ mentally diseased, bitter apostates”.
Jws are yet to come to terms with the fact that we are in the information age and they can no longer get away with lying to protect their organisation.
For example, one of the “ lies “ told about them is that they shun anyone who leaves the cult , including family members, including their own children.
Another “ lie “ is that Jws are ready to allow their children to die rather than accept a life-saving blood transfusion.
The child sex abuse coverup in the cult is also said to be a “lie “. ..even though it is well publicised and even the court transcripts easily available.
They also claim that the accusation of making multiple false Armageddon predictions is a lie, never mind that the evidence is in their Watchtower literature."
i am new to this and recently converted, so please forgive my ignorance.. i am trying not to sin and don't understand something.
it says in leviticus that you cannot consume blood, so no blood transfusions.
i understand this.
Welcome to the forum MikeJH!
It is interesting that Jews could eat animals found dead in their fields (unbled) with relative impunity. They would merely have to wash their clothes and be unclean until evening.
Leviticus 11:38,39 - "If an animal that you are allowed to eat dies, anyone who touches its carcass will be unclean till evening. Anyone who eats some of its carcass must wash their clothes, and they will be unclean till evening. Anyone who picks up the carcass must wash their clothes, and they will be unclean till evening." Also Leviticus17:14,15
So enjoy your rare steak Bro!
is bible prophecy now starting to come true regarding a prelude to the great tribulation?.
full disclosure: i still don't believe in the bible's claims about the existence of the supernatural, even of jehovah god (i'm an atheist and a scientific/philosophical naturalist), but i am asking this question because recent events are starting to seem (to me) to fit well the description of some prophecies in the bible.
consider the following.. several hours ago (on 11-26-2021) as i was about to enter a local fred meyer store of my city (in suburb or small city in the metro area of a large city) a person i know told me that a moment earlier a person left the store in a hurry with a cart load up with unpaid merchandise (i think i was told it was groceries but i don't remember that for sure).
Hi Disillusioned,
Could be...but the difference is that Clarke applies these to the destruction of Jerusalem.
This thread is about the great tribulation which the Watchtower has misapplied and used to control its adherents for decades.
By reading the synoptics on the subject, I don't see how anyone can legitimately come up this being a future event.
THE GREAT TRIBULATION
The synoptics support that the great tribulation Jesus spoke about would be an unrepeatable local event.
Matthew 24:15-21 The Sign to Flee Jerusalem’s Tribulation & Destruction.
15. When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:
18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the Sabbath day:
21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
.
Mark 13:14-19 The Sign to Flee Jerusalem’s Tribulation & Destruction:
14. But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains:
15 And let him that is on the housetop not go down into the house, neither enter therein, to take any thing out of his house:
16 And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to take up his garment.
17 But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
18 And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter.
19 For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be.
.
Luke 21:20-24 The Sign to Flee Jerusalem’s Tribulation & Destruction:
20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
21 Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
22 For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
23 But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.
24 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.
According to Luke's gospel, the culmination of the great tribulation on Israel would find Jerusalem destroyed, many slaughtered and the survivors led away captive to all nations which happened in 70 AD and will not be repeated at or after Christ's Second coming.
