  How Did Watchtower Sell the "Jonadab" Concept ?

  by Sea Breeze in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  simply put; gullible people were told if they chose life on earth instead of heaven, they wouldn't have to die.

  that's how they sold it.

  the watchtower lied to people in the 1920 booklet and convention series titled "millions now living will never die!

  JoeyJoJo,

  A man walked out of a tomb, and predicted before he died that he would raise himself from the dead. Then he did it. Nothing has been the same since. He said that if you trust him, you will walk out of your own tomb. It's that simple. Very easy to understand even if you don't believe it.
  
  If you can present anything that can compare to that, let's hear it. Whatcha got?

  Ok - ill give it a shot.

  A man without a body rolled into a bar - he was only a head.

  He said to the bartender - "do you play darts here?" The bartender says "sure".

  The man said, "well put a dart in my mouth -feathers first".

  "Right - now throw the fucking board at me!"

  Then there was light.

  the universe came into being 13.8 billion years ago in the big bang.

  after an initial flash, it went through a period known as the cosmic dark ages.

  according to a new study, probing cosmic dawn, 250 to 350 million years after the big bang the first stars emerged bringing light to the cosmos.

  I don't know what you all are talking about here. But
  Gen 1:1. In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
  BANG.
  That is the big bang where matter was created from nothing and the stars were created and then the planets.

  If you read Gen 1:1 carefully, it doesnt say this at all. The stars, sun and moon didnt exist until the 4th day - the day after vegetation was created.

  Incidently light was created before the sun, which is interesting to say the least. Not sure where the light came from - it doesnt exist independantly of stars as far as I know.

  I am curious how anyone that was once a JW could fall wholeheartedly for another belief system that is every bit as questionable as the first one.

  After any time spent as a JW, you should be able smell bullshit propaganda and mind control a mile away.

  Its like swallowing the blue pill all over again.

  Time of the end - a TRINITY puzzler.

  2. bible

  (matthew 24:36) “concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the son, but only the father.".

  (jesus seems to have forgotten to include the holy spirit not knowing either).

  (acts 1:7) "he said to them: “it does not belong to you to know the times or seasons that the father has placed in his own jurisdiction.".

  There is a theory that our universe may exist in a black hole.

  Trump is unhappy because Israel threw everything they had at Iran right up until the last minute, instead of pulling out like he asked them to.

  Journeyman makes good points. Some people seem to think that if you drop a few bombs, then it's problem solved - game over.

  These kinds of actions breed hatred-fuelled revenge. Iran is set back for now - maybe. What about in a year or two from now? Is it rinse and repeat?

  Few JW leader have children

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it’s been discussed before that few jw leaders, past and present, have had children.

  this is in contrast with other groups, such as the mormons, whose leaders have had a lot of children.

  i wonder if this has impacted jw growth.

  If a JW is serious about their faith, it is extremely difficult to reconcile bringing children into this world.

  Ive always wondered how any JW can preach about how sick the world is and how close to the end we are, and then proceed to increase the population with their own offspring.

  Nuclear weapons would give Iran some leverage but I wonder if they would actually use them. I mean, the day they were launched is the day Iran would cease to exist.
