  Why did Paul call Jesus, “the firstborn from the dead”?

  by Doug Mason in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  "jesus christ was resurrected on nisan 16, 33 c.e., the day when the jewish high priest offered up the firstfruits of the barley harvest.

  this fits in accurately with jesus' being the "firstfruits" in the resurrection of the human dead.

  (1 cor.

  “Firstborn of the Dead”...

  ... sounds like the title of a cheesy low-budget 80s horror movie.

  2. entertainment

  here the arch bishop of canterbury's dean shows jw broadcast how it's done.....or rather his cat does!

  no hate speech, no lying, no over-done, fake news caster-y backdrop.and most of all no genocidal threats!.

  just a garden, a nice cup of tea and cats!.

  Mormon Apologetic Article - JW comparisons etc

  https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/what-mormons-like-me-really-believe.

  from an ex-jw perspective , i was quite interested in the above article , which the spectator ( presumably ) felt obligated for legal reasons to publish to allow a response to a rather unfavourable article below.. https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/the-troubling-history-of-mormonism.

  the arguments are fairly rehearsed and often used by jw "spokesmen".

  I have long thought of the LDS as the WTS’s nicer but weirder older cousin.

  has it been replaced by covid?

  no one is talking about making sure you get you flu shots.

  what do you think of them?

  should a business or establishment require that you show proof that you have been vaccinated before they let you in?.

  The Craziness of JW's.

  my dad and i would work on different "pioneers" vehicles in our kingdumb hell.

  and to nuts and bolts they where real "hoopties" anytime ready for the crusher.

  both my dad and i would work with our skills to keep their cars running since they don't have a real job to get a real working car.

  GrreatTeacher - "I always thought the JWs would be better off if they followed the Mormon pattern: had people pioneer for two years when young and then get real jobs so they could donate back to the organization..."

  Hell, they probably didn't do it that way because the Mormons did it.

  If Babylon the Great said "zig", the WTS would zag, because fuck you, that's why.

  JW's getting creative (or desperate) to preach during the pandemic ....

  2. experiences

  so, there's this social game called second life.. there one creates an avatar and can lead a parallel life.

  there's a bit of everything, from general environments to adult.

  it can be a hub for creative people, it can be a magnet for creeps.

  The Wwatchtower turning into a real laughing Stock

  over the years watchtower has turned into a real joke in the world scene.

  with the lawsuits, downsizing and decreasing numbers.

  what they use to be is gone and they will never recover the numbers they once had.

  Honestly, sometimes when I'm in a conspiracy-theory mood, I wonder if the GB - someday in the future, anxious and faced with actual undeniable decline that couldn't be simply explained away - would try to provoke The World into "persecuting" them in the hopes that Jehovah would drop the Big A and bail them out.

  hoser - "They are in major decline because no one cares."

  This.

  Back in the day, the Org absolutely thrived on so-called "opposition"...

  ...apathy was mentioned once in a while, but only in the context of the rank-and-file.

  Ten bucks says the WT leadership never had a clue how to deal with "Satan's World" not actually giving a shit.
