  So if they had started broadcasting a week sooner or a week later, would it still have been Jehovahs hand?

  Who had control over when they launched?

  Well.......the answer would be......

  THEM

  thats who!

  dear sir: .

  regarding your recent testimony in australia on the nature of judges and elders in scriptures being male:.

  read judges 4, and if you can hang on, chapter 5. it is with regard to a judge who succeeded ehud and performed similar services.

  I really like your post kepler! It is so well constructed and a joy to read.

  Angus Stewart could have picked up on Jacksons ruse and challenged him and yet he did not.

  Why?

  That bothers me...

  not that he didnt challenge him but why didnt he?

  Is Deborahs true role as judge debatable among scholars?

  Would that be why Stewart "let it go"?

  If jw's obeyed all of the bible commandments what would they be like?

  by purrpurr in

  the jw's cite abstaining from blood along with other cherry picked commandments.

  but then ignore the others.

  this is very hippocritical and if they are going to obey one commandment they should be obeying the rest.. just as a bit of fun then... what would jw's be like if they obeyed every rule in the bible?.

  Since Jesus said the identifying mark of true Christianity would be love, I think they would have to change from the ground up.

  Just the thought of all the changes needed would make the top of the GBs heads explode.

  Guardians of Doctrine.

  by Pubsinger in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  i'm still working my way through the videos..... this has probably been covered before but had anyone else ever heard them use this phrase before?

  not me... but it's a clever and as per usual misleading choice of words.. if they are indeed guardians of doctrine, they are very poor ones.

  if so jws would believe the same thing now that they did in 1879 and we all know that's not true.

  That is a great find OrphanCrow!

  You find the most amazing things!!!

  Another little point about saying they are "guardians of the doctrine"...

  was that to side step the point Angus Stewart was trying to establish that they are the creators of the doctrine?

  The Org. determinedly does NOT consider Deborah a judge, never mind what the Bible says, hang the Bible!

  Over and over if you search their literature they allow only for her being a prophetess.

  GB member and 17000 US$ iWatch !

  one member of a similar spanish speaking forum has found something quite interesting.. it is quite funny to see that gb members do not really realize how their belongings are really showing them as a fraud.

  do you expect to see a gb wearing a 17000 us$ iwatch when answering to a court.

  geoffrey jackson does !.

  Even if the watch isnt real, why is he imitating the world?

  Arent we supposed to be "modest in walking with our God"?

  So is he "above" as in clergy/laity, something the JWs claim doesnt exist in their ranks or is he just that out of touch with the common man?

  So by prominently wearing the iWatch to the RC hearing, the gb are taking the lead in applying jesus' words literally to;
  "Keep on the iWATCH!"
  just saying!
  eyeuse2badub

  That is exactly the point.

  It is one thing to receive gifts from people.

  But to be so arrogant as to not even dress the part when you are going on camera before the world trying to appear like a humble man of God????

  "We don't run a spy network"

  I know that Punk is right on that...

  I remember my step father (elder) doing spy recon missions hiding in bushes trying to catch a cheating wife.

  I hear that they are trying to back off from that behavior now....they say they are not "spiritual police men".

  So if that is the current "stance" then what Jackson should have said is "we no longer run a spy network".

  At least he could have been accurate by his own standards!

  AND, that still wouldnt account for what OrphanCrow mentioned above...the extensive data they keep on people.

  They originally started this to try to use the info to figure out who to promote and who not so it would appear that the "Holy Spirit was even the slightest bit involved but due to the corruption that exists among their own elders too many slipped through and it hasnt been effective.

  If a person were to be objective as a believer, the evidence would indicate the Holy Spirit is working against them.

  I wish one of these hacker groups would attack them and reveal their data base.

  Here ya go JW pedophiles, meet world!

  would reporting time from a DF person be acceptable by the bros..

  The further I move away from being an active participant in all things JW, the stranger some things seem.

  I know that a DFd person cannot be stopped from witnessing. In our Hall their was a DFd older woman who was going door to door and the C.O. said just leave it alone - she is still baptized and technically can go door to door.

  That whole "still baptized but no longer a JW unless you get reinstated" thing is bewildering to me.

  Love your end of the conversation John Aquila.

  I especially liked the "dont call me about it" approach.
