  Demon possesion, bunch of crap or?

  by raven in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i've been using the forum to vent and post a lot more frequently lately as a venting purpose & way to obtain peace of mind with the craziness i've been going through recently as i fade away form the org.

  anyways today i'm sitting here at work and thinking to myself about demons... ok i know this sounds crazy but has anyone else out there been traumatized by the thought of demons?

  i had a dream the other night, just flat out spooky and i woke and couldn't help but feeling it may have been evil ole' satan and his demons at it again.. i don't want to believe that, (trying not to, & just brushing it under the rug so to speak) but have any of you out there been talked up about demons?

  I don't know about you dreams but this one thing is fact: Nowhere absolutely nowhere in the Bible do demons possess inanimate objects.

  Zoos, they have no Holy Spirit. They have no mind of Christ. They have no mercy. They have no authority. Having been forgiven much themselves through Christ, they like the guy who was forgiven much but owed a little, beat their fellows and don't forgive.

  IGNORE them. In the end they get thrown into prison .... where they belong.

  Wing Commander, they are self proclaimed "Princes". They have no gifts of prophesy or healing. They have no proof they are Princes..

  Jesus' example of the Prodigal's son. He didn't have to frigging beg. The prostitute didn't have to beg. No one had to beg some STUPID human guy.

  After working around men for decades, I can say that men gossip way more than women and whine a lot like children too.

  Beards - September 2016 Watchtower

  by Listener in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the issue of whether beards are acceptable or not is addressed in the september 2016 watchtower - well sort of.

  it is as clear as mud as to whether they are allowed in places like australia, usa and britain.. 17. what are some factors that may affect whether a brother wears a beard?17 what about the propriety of brothers wearing a beard?

  the mosaic law required men to wear a beard.

  Lol!!!!!!!

  In one section, "Christians are not under Mosaic Law nor are they obliged to observe it." (We don't want you to have a beard, you don't have to follow the Law)

  Next section, "The Law showed...." ( God is not pleased with unisex, so we don't want you to wear it, follow the Law)

  *sigh

  WT September 2016: Tight Pants (Does your style of dress Glorify God?

  by Designer Stubble in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  we will not weigh you down with burdensome lists, as you have the freedom to choose, but here is our list anyway.some snippets:.

  the law showed jehovah’s strong feelings against clothing that does not make clear the distinction between male and female—what has been described in our day as unisex fashion.

  (read deuteronomy 22:5.

  ...our brothers and sisters appreciate it when we refrain from wearing clothes that are so tight or so loose that they are revealing.
  

  Is that so? And who told YOU what I do or don't appreciate? Did I miss a questionaire?

  Deuteronomy says???? Er, yeah for ancient Israelites; so you could tell which dress was for a man and which dress was for a woman. That Law Code. You don't get to pick and choose with that code for modern application; it's ALL or NONE. No one has to marry their rapist. So guess what? NONE.

  Stop trying to reinstate what Christ's death has "fulfilled". Besides, we can tell which pants suits are for men and which pants suits are for women.

  All this because of ONE members personal dislikes. It's such a stupid thing to be focused on.

  JW Video Armageddon to occur before 2040

  by Listener in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  sorry i thought it was a new morning worship video but it is 6 months old and has already been discussed on here..  it is presented by gb helper k flodin and about this generation.

  the delusion and hypocrisy runs deep.. he reminds the cult members not to speculate because they aren't supposed to know the day or the hour.

  then he proceeds to speculate that armageddon will occur before 2040.. https://tv.jw.org/#en/video/vodprogramsevents/pub-jwbmw_201511_3_video.

  Leave the dates alone, so say Jesus Christ. It's not for anyone to know.

  In case you haven't noticed, that IS the date they've been trying to guess for over 100+ years. Leave it the f**k alone!!!! Insolent hard heads.

  The Ray Franz Saga

  i'm just curious as to how it all happened.. to explain.

  many years back, before ex-jw websites, i called on a local lady in order to design an extension to her already enormous house.

  she was a young, voluptuous gal, married to a much older local business man who spared little expense in order to give his young wife whatever her heart desired.. we chatted for ages.

  No it isn't. The fact that you still don't seem to notice what you keep saying is sad.

  Go preaching anyway. No one can take away talking about God's kingdom from you if that's what you feel compelled to do. Those guys are NOT Jesus! Not even close. They don't overrule anything he said and they have neither the right nor the authority to. No one's knees will bend to their names.

  Acts 4:17-20 NET

  But to keep this matter from spreading any further among the people, let us warn them to speak no more to anyone in this name." [18] And they called them in and ordered them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus. [19] But Peter and John replied, "Whether it is right before God to obey you rather than God, you decide, [20] for it is impossible for us not to speak about what we have seen and heard."

  I'd pull an Apostle and completely ignore them.

  Insanity!!!

  He's using too much JW terminology. Gives himself away. What's the outrage about? I can't read the Japanese commentary.
