Calm down everyone, it all has to do with that tricky "0" year. It's so clear you have to multiply that "0" year by 10 for earthly completeness, subtract 1 because it was already figured in, add 99 to 1914 and that's it! End of Gentile Times 2013. Plain as day.

Why does God need to be worshipped?

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

the bible exhorts us to “worship the one who made the heaven and the earth and sea and fountains of waters.”—deuteronomy 4:24; revelation 14:7.. insight on the scriptures, volume 2 pp 1200-1202. worshipone of the hebrew words conveying the idea of worship (ʽa·vadhʹ) basically means “serve.” (ge 14:4; 15:13; 29:15) serving or worshiping jehovah required obedience to all of his commands, doing his will as a person exclusively devoted to him.

(ex 19:5; de 30:15-20; jos 24:14, 15) therefore, for an individual to engage in any ritual or act of devotion toward any other gods signified his abandoning true worship.—de 11:13-17; jg 3:6, 7.another hebrew term that can denote worship is hish·ta·chawahʹ, which primarily means “bow down” (ge 18:2), or do obeisance.

I've always said, even on this forum years ago, if I ever saved someone's life I would say "buy me a beer and we'll call it square."

JWs Were Right About Something

by minimus in

jw
friends

they used to say the world governments would turn on religion.

i think this part is coming true.

however they also said since jehovah’s witnesses were going to be the only religion left the governments were going to focus on the “eyeball”of jehovah, his people.

Big catch phrase lately is believe the science. So here's some basic science. If a person has testicles and a penis between their legs it means they're male. Chromosones determined that.

WHY would Religion not flourish before the Flood?

by waton in

or why did they kill abel?

with mother eve still telling her talking snake story?

they killed abel, because he killed the invention of religion, at least before the "new light" rainbow regime.

Cain killed Abel because jah wanted BLOOD sacrafices of something of GREAT VALUE. Cain didn't have flocks like his brother did so he spilled his brothers blood to please jah.

Talking to a Jehovah`s Witness .Ask the right questions .

by smiddy3 in

what questions should be asked to a jehovah`s witness when confronted with them.. a jw gives his sermon.

"you" immediately ask him by what authority he has from god that you should take notice of him ,seeing their are over 40,000 different christian religions in the world who claim to represent god,.

Ask what is wrong with taking up an independent (from Watchtower) study of the bible. After they stumble around for an answer say show me that in the bible.

Meetings

by pontoon in

so remember how assembling together is a command and no man or government can stop us, even if it means going 'underground', even if means being arrested, jailed, beat....can't stop us from assembling together----until covid.

now it's "false regligion" fighting for their constitutional right to meet together while the jws seem to be perefectly happy zooming their lives away..

Borg been morphing into a TV evangalist for a long time. Remember the illustration 5 meetings a week are like 5 fingers, which finger are you willing to lose? Then bye bye book study. I can see kingdom halls going but assemblies and conventions are huge money makers, millions and millions. I don't know what their latest money sucking tactics over zoom are now.
