One True Religion

by mrquik in

is there one true religion?

applying jesus' identifying requirements, not one religion qualifies.

coming close doesn't count.

It's not rocket science. If there is one true religion, it can't possibly be the religion of Jehovah's Witnesses. Every one of the religion's unique beliefs are nowhere found in the Bible; they have a 100% failure rate in interpreting biblical prophecy, they have failed again and again to protect children from sexual abuse, their unloving shunning policies have contributed to the suicide of former members, their medical quackery has resulted in loss of health and even death of It's members.

Besides all this, they are preaching a false gospel and a false Jesus all around the world and trying to take credit for it.

Is Tony Morris a Nonce / Pedophile

friends

this has just been posted on youtube regarding tony morris and the reason why he was removed as a gb member and 'relocated'.is tony morris a pedophile / nonce?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ahj9vxygkelet me know your thoughts down below.celtic.

Perhaps it would be wise for Marcus to do this video over without accusing Tony of personally engaging in child sexual abuse; cover up yes, not reporting her father to authorities, yes, allowing the abuse to continue under his watch, yes.😢

The female accuser only seems to be blaming Morris for not stopping the abuse after having direct personal knowledge of the CSA being perpetrated at the time.

The Good Shepherd risks life and limb to rescue his lost sheep.

My take is Jesus Christ is the truth, the way and the life. Knowing Him means you know the Father. The universe and every atom is held together by His power. No religion or religious organization comes close to being the truth or the way or the life.

Reinstatement...the aftermath?

by TxNVSue2023 in

i'm in the process of being reinstated ( my df'ing story is on here).

because i've never been in this position before, i don't know how i will be treated once i'm reinstated.

i moved ti a new city/state and i don't know a single person here or in my new congregation i am attending.

I don't believe she is a troll. I believe Sue has been kept in the dark for so long, she is trying to evaluate her faith in a free social environment and ask questions she would be shot down for asking in a Borg controlled forum.

If JW is not the truth, then what is the true religion?

by TxNVSue2023 in

even though i'm disfellowshiped ( & i belive wrongfully so).

i still belive this is the truth.

i have been d'f for about 8 months now and working on reinstatement.

Yes, Charles Russell found out the truth when he said an organization is totally unnecessary ( for believing in God and being approved of Him).

Disfellowshipped for Fornication

by TxNVSue2023 in

hi i want to tell my story and get advice.

i'm a single sister ( in usa) that has been baptized for 20 years.

i came from the world, so did not grow up in the truth and i have no family in the truth -- i am alone.. last year i met a brother & we did have premarital sex while we were dating.

@Rattigan

There is no such thing as a "Disfellowshipping offense".

Wouldn't persistent celebrating your children's birthdays be considered a disfellowshipping offense?

The Messianic Prophecies and Their Fulfillment in Jesus

by aqwsed12345 in

the belief in the messiah, which has lived in the collective consciousness of humanity since ancient times, became completely obscured among the gentiles, and only remained with the jewish people, who were later chosen by god, as the prophecies of the prophets kept it alive.

there was only one great promise in the old testament from god, which awaited fulfillment!

only one great desire was there in the old testament on the part of man, longing for satisfaction.

As someone once said:

Show me the perfect church and I will join it and it won't be perfect anymore.

Hi Watcher,

Can one serve Jehovah without the org.? Or does one have to associate with the organization of Jehovah's Witnesses to be a Christian and be approved by Jehovah?

Aside from the alleged "composite Sign", what is the scriptural evidence for Christ's 1914 presence?

by Vanderhoven7 in

my take is: 1914 is not biblical since no dates are in the bible.

a hodgepodge of scriptures are ingeniously linked together; then stir in about 9 creative assumptions to arrive at a speculative theory on which to base wts authority.. nathan knorr to fred franz.

"there are some things that i know.

For one thing, it had to be before the destruction of the temple.

Daniel 9:26 KJV — And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
