Governing Body NOT going to heaven!

by BoogerMan in

the jw memorial takes place in 5 weeks time, and kh meetings resume on april 1st.. the worldwide campaign for spectators will kick off soon, so here are 3 questions to help jw's see the org's myth that their g.b.

is going to be amongst a crowd of 144,001 melchizedek king/priests in heaven.. 1) a ransom only buys back what has been lost, so what exactly did adam lose?.

2) how can jesus' ransom correspond with what adam lost, if it buys back far more than what was lost?.

BoogerMan - "Governing Body NOT going to heaven..."

Fuck, no.

In fact, ten bucks says Rutherford and Jaracz are cellmates in Hell.

The other sheep: Looking for an apologist to offer an explanation

by IP_SEC in

a verse constantly plucked from context by witnesses is john 10:16. they use it to prove that there are two classes of christian.. and i have other sheep i have other sheep, which are not of this fold: those also i must bring and they will listen to my voice, and they will become one flock, one shepherd.. the this fold say witnesses are anointed christians and the other sheep are christians with an earthly hope.. read the text carefully and in context, and i challenge anyone to be able to prove that.. in chapter 9 jesus heals a man born blind.

this infuriates the pharisees who then attack the healed man and threaten him with being expelled from the synagogue.

the man will not recant and is thrown out.. jesus finds him and asks him to be his follower.

New year's predictions for watchtower.

by asp59 in

well don't know if this page has tread for new years predictions or with date it starts.

so might as well start now.

my new year's prediction for watchtower would be a big big sell out of kingdom hall's.

Beth Sarim - "Same old wrinkled carrot on a stick."

Let's be honest.

At this point, the carrot and the stick are pretty much indistinguishable.

So many are waking up. Pandemic gave jws time to think.

by pistolpete in

this is not about stats, but "actual experiences" happening world wide in the organization.

there is about 156 comments of what some jws are seeing in their congregation.

feel free to read and come to your own conclusion on whether the watchtower organization is turning pimo but no one says anything in order to keep family relations.

Terrific.

Now I'm picturing an elder giving a public talk in his tightie-whities.

A little something you have not yet heard.

by lastmanstanding in

i hope to make a very interesting post here, and informative.

i’m quite sure no one here has heard this content.

i would like to finally make known some heretofore undisclosed details concerning something that has affected probably everyone on this board to some degree.

Vidiot

lastmanstanding - "...I hope their lawyers walked right in there and laid it down."

IMO, the really interesting question is...

...why is said tax-exemption (not having to "pay back Caesar's things to Caesar", I might add ) so important to "God's Exclusive Earthly Organization"...

...so important, in fact, that if push comes to shove, they'll show their throat to "Satan's World" (whilst hoping the rank-and-file don't notice)?

Occam's razor? The Org has allowed its "business model" to become dependent on said exemption...

...or to put it more succinctly, the Org's survival has become dependent on it.

Watchtower says you can be Disfellowshiped for being Fat!

by Witness 007 in

watchtower 1974 p.167 "by disobediently over indulging in food and making a glutton of himself he shows no love for jehovah..in the presents of others does he ignore their needs and selfishly take more then his fair share?

is he grossly overweight gorging himself?

does he feel uncomfortable even getting sick...this person has no place in the congregation of god...they will not inherit gods kingdom.".

Clearly, the GB quietly nixed that little rule. Vidiot

Why do you call yourselves "apostates?"

by Marbles in

well let me clarify the question.

i know you call yourselves apostates because the bible defines people who leave their previously held beliefs as apostates.

my question means, if the bible is not true (and i don't think it is) then there is no such thing as an apostate.i have never been a jw, only a bible student with them.

Vidiot

Marbles - "Why do you call yourselves 'apostates'?"

We don't.

The Watchtower calls us that.
