If that drunken paedophile protecting despot, TOMO the turd says it is so, then it is so, whether it makes sense or not.
Yes. It's Orwellian but that's how the GovBod (Piss be upon them), roll.
wt claims that satan was thrown out of heaven in october 1914 precipitating ww!
and the end times.
a small problem with that is ww1 started on july 28th 1914 whilst satan was still in heaven picking his nose.. how did we not see this and waste years of precious life?

I used to go to a Baptist church when I was a believer.
I reckon the British Baptists are nothing like the mentally unstable, heavily medicated American ones.

16 - an increasing “great crowd...out of all nations” are flocking to the org jehovah’s worship.
the brooklyn pharisees assured the sheeple for decades that isaiah 2:2, micah 4:1-3, & haggai 2:7 were prophetically.

I know they're not flocking to the cult, you know, in fact, everyone knows except the Jobots.
They'll believe anything that drunken sot TOMO 3rd and his paedo protecting boys will tell them.
watchtower 1954 p.511 "why do watchtower publications now show jesus with short hair and no beard?
because he is shown that way in older representations of him that are older then the traditional effeminate looking pictures.".
watchtower 1968 p.286 "bible evidence and a recent review shows that jesus did have a beard..." charles russell style of beard was popular at bethel...till rutherford took over.
It's probably a metric to see who's loyal to the drunken paedo lovers AKA Governing Body(TM).
only jesus has the power and authority to defeat satan and kick him out of heaven:.
“now have come to pass the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our god and the authority of his christ, because the accuser of our brothers has been hurled down, who accuses them day and night before our god.”.
Y'see, this is what makes me think the Bible is not all it's cracked up to be.
All this to-ing and fro-ing about who is correct and who isn't.
Shouldn't a book from the 'Divine' be stating things in an obvious way?

Why doesn't the Bible just say so?
box on page 24 of the july 15th titled :"if ever the evil slave....".
jesus has placed the weightiest of responsibilities on the faithful and discreet slave-namely,overseeing the domestics and giving out spiritual food atthe proper time.
jesus knew that those with greater responsibility have greater accountability.
he concluded his illustration about....
Yep. 'Illustration'. They said it, not me.
'The Faithful Slave' isn't a real thing. Neither is the 'Evil slave'. (TM) after the lot.
Amazing how they take some parables to be literal and others not. I wonder why? Something about money and power? Hmmmm!
well, i haven't been here in about 5 months.
ever since my ex-pioneer partner and bethel roommate roy baty died.
looks like i've have missed out on some fun.
It's one of those threads I haven't bothered with.
Mr Evans is not a celebrity in my eyes. (I don't do celebrities, it's fake adulation. they're no better than the next person).
I'm more focused on my family.
My days of 'activism(tm)' are behind me. If people want to stay in a dangerous cult, that's their business. In a 1000 years time, they'll all be long forgotten like the rest of us.
i found a company and employed an elder as an underwriter and two ms as sales and marketing.
anyway, this elder will delegate his work to the ms in sales and marketing, so he can go home early.
he knew when he got started that this would be a 10 hour a day job with some saturday.
I don't suppose we can broad-brush all Jobots the same.
I have been aware of some shady Jobot employers. No names, no pack drill.
I did know of one who was a very good employer. Mind you, he pissed off with some bird (Brit slang for female), and got DF'd.
