Bobcat, give me your take on this

by QC in

bcat, looks like jesus is not michael.

i just shared this with new member "lost".

if this is correct it's another big eye opener for the jw r&f.

About wars Jesus never said that wars would be a signal of the end. On the contrary, he warned us not to be deceived for these things.

Matthew 24:4-6

New International Version (NIV)

4 Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and will deceive many. 6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.

The WT has done the opposite , took the War of 1914 as a sign of the end and deceived many and is still deceiving .

“Pregúntese ahora, ¿Cristo Jesús, quien puso el ejemplo y nos dijo que siguieran su ejemplo para ganar la vida, se unió a cualquier organización eclesiástica en su día? No, Dios no nos exige a hacer eso, sino que nos exige adorarle … Tenemos la Biblia para mostrarnos el camino correcto. Desde luego, no es necesario que una persona llegue a ser miembro de una iglesia para alcanzar la vida eterna. ” Atalaya 1 de marzo 1953 p.143

Don't e-mail DF'd family members - Congregation Reaction (WT 1/15/2013)

by 00DAD in

do not look for excuses to associate with a disfellowshipped family member, for example, through e-mail.

- w2013 1/15, p. 16, para.

in the congregation i attend, no one--and i mean no one--commented on the directive to not communicate with df'd family members by email.

wolfman85

I'm from Puerto Rico and culturally family ties are very strong and important. We like to do everything as a family. Maybe that's why the WT was more emphatic in Spanish.

James 2:26 - "faith without works is dead"

by leaving_quietly in

i was contemplating this verse this morning... what did james mean by "works"?

and it hit me like a bolt of lightning.. now, wts would have us believe these "works" are preaching and meetings.

however, could that be what james was referring to?

wolfman85

We can have an idea of some of those works.

James 2:15-18

New International Version (NIV)

15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

Dear watchtower bible and tract society, governing body, and all of your twisted teachings...

by OneDayillBeFree in

jw
friends

after today's watchtower study which was basically a mind controlling article about shunning your loved disfellowshipped ones, i've come to see just how sick, twisted, vile, rotten, repulsive, disgusting, and just plain evil you all are.

so i stormed out.

i don't know if i'll ever come back to your meetings again.

wolfman85

The Spanish version is much severe than English. They say "trough e-mail, telephone or text messages". So English speakers can contact by telephone and text messages because the example only includes "e-mails".

No busque excusas para mantenerse en contacto con un expulsado, por ejemplo mediante correo electrónico, teléfono o mensajes de texto

Somebody told me that one pound of dry salted codfish costs about $40 U.S. dollars. Does anyone know if this is true?
