Does the Issue of Universal Sovereignty make sense to you as an explanation for evil?

by gubberningbody in

jw

it used to for me, and now it doesn't.. i'm not sure how i was able to accept that argument now that i don't, but perhaps it was connected with my increasing compassion for people and their personal suffering as i've grown older.. now it seems like a sick excuse.

more like a bar-bet with satan and all of creation suffers.. i read paul's words and he has no rejoiner except to say in effect "sucks to be a vessel of wrath...glad i'm not one, but who are you to complain anyway, huh?

who's bigger, smarter and more powerful than you, you, you complaining vessel of wrath, you.

To me, Universal Sovereignty, as taught by the WT, would makes sense only if God had never executed anyone for Divine Judgement, as in Sodom and Gomorrah, the Flood, the rebellious Israelites in the wilderness, ect.

From these facts have already spent thousands of years and God did not allow these people for millennia to realize His Sovereignty. Simply executed them. So why humanity has had to endure so many millennia of evil without God's intervention put the excuse of sovereignty, when there are examples of divine intervention to eliminate evil in the past? Sorry for my English.

Dumb ass family moved in next door with autistic kid JEHOOVER HELP!

by Witness 007 in

right now i'm in my bedroom being blasted by 80's music.

she put a stereo in her tin shed which is next to our bedrooms, so her autistic kid can play loud music...or should i say, same f#cking song over and over again.

I was surprised to see how people are so insensitive. I am a father of a 17 year old boy with severe autism. Although few people are able to use empathy, only those who have children with this disability know the challenges, efforts, dedication and above all, love needed to care for them. How cruel can become some due to their ignorance. I would say more, but my English is limited and I lack words to express what I feel with this entry.

even though i was raised a witness, i was never convinced that the end would be in 1975 or even in my lifetime..

When I was 5 had a shopping bag in my closset with canned food ready for the GT, just grab it and run. Now I'm 44 and 3rd generation JW. The only sure thing I have in my near future is DEAD!!! The sad thing is that my young adult daughter is the 4th generation of JW's and she is bittered because she knows this religion is BS, but we can't leave because my parents. (sorry for grammar errors, English is not my first language)

a SIMPLE answer re: 607 please

by RayPublisher in

i know it's a complicated topic, and i've spent gobs and gobs of hours studying it and realizing that 586/587 is the most likely date.

so anyway, here's my question:.

how could jerusalem's fall be 587 but still be in line with the scriptures about 70 years of desolation that the wto uses to push 607 so strongly?

Read this book

The Gentile Times Reconsidered -by Carl Olof Jonsson

He was a JW when he wrote it. It's great!!! I think you can get it online (PDF).

I decided not to go back to the KH

by Bucholz in

well, as i mentioned before in one of my few other posts, i've been lurking here for some time now and finally decided it was time to face the facts and take action.. i was raised a jw (4th generation) and my parents were quite zealous when they got married.

mom was a regular pioneer and dad was a ms. i was the little jw 'rockstar' in my congregation, got baptized at 10, was giving talks and serving as an attendant at the hall and at conventions at such an early age.

auxiliary pioneered whenever i could.

Hi, remember, God knows what there is in the heart, so if He killed all those people for sure they were not or not going to be good people. God and Jesus aren't the WT.
