Satan Wants to Be Like God and Have Mankind Worship Him.....Yeah Right....

by xjwsrock in

i heard this tired line re-ran again at this year's convention.

satan supposedly wanted to be like god and be worshiped - you know, the whole pride thing.

they really made a big deal about how his "thoughts" led to his sin in the garden of eden and how we need to control our thoughts to avoid the same result.

Dunedain

The only thing I can think of, would be maybe by him "coming out", he would also be PROVING that God himself exists, too. Really you cant have one without the other, lol.

I am not saying this as fact, I am just following your train of thought, which I actually think is a good one. It does make sense that if Satan wanted ALL the power and glory, wouldn't he want to be front and center, idk.

There is the famous saying, that the greatest trick the Devil ever did was to convince the world he doesn't exist. Perhaps by remaining in the "shadows", he can control the world, and deceive humans away from God. Kinda like the "power that be", that conspiracy theorists believe TRULY run the world. They want to use a puppet government, while they stay behind in the shadows, ushering in the "new world order", while controlling the money and power.

OR, its all a bunch of bullshit, and is an ancient fable to help other men, control other men. If a priestly class can make other humans believe a Satan exists, and ONLY they have the power to save you from him, then they have control over those people. Sounds like what the evil slave, the Governing body, is doing to over 8 million people right now.

Would you consider shunning merciful?

ok

Dunedain

Would you consider mentally, emotionally, and psychologically, ignoring someone merciful? Would you consider ignoring a person during their, perhaps, greatest NEED, merciful?

Would you consider cutting someone off from perhaps the ONLY human beings they have EVER known, and interacted with, due to archaic rules, merciful?

Would you consider pushing away someones hand, when they are reaching out for help, merciful?

Would kicking someone while they are down, be merciful?

Would publicly humiliating, and shaming someone, because their sins were INVENTED by men, merciful?

Would you consider all the shunning that is happening, be SOLELY happening because of being JUDGED by a fellow human being, merciful?

Beard's Coming to the Borg!

by DwainBowman in

wt sept study edition, page 17, paragraph 17!

.

Dunedain

Why don't they give specific examples of these so called "cultures", where in beards would be the equivalent of practically tattooing a swastika on your forehead.

Its so ridiculous, really. Like most of their "stands", they cowardly double talk, and blur the message. Its left up to "interpretation", but interpretation by WHO. The dipshits who are in "charge". Who decides whats acceptable, and what "culture" accepts it or not.

I can see the Elder in charge of congregation "A", "demonizing" beards, because HE cant grow one, and has a newborn baby peach fuzz on his face. Then Elder in charge of congregation "B", will have no problem with beards, and look down on the less "manly" brothers who don't where a beard to resemble Jesus.

Its all the same shit, you CAN take this part of blood, but NOT that, you CAN wear a beard here, but NOT there. HYPOCRATES.

it appears there is about a million voting age jws in the us right now.

it appears there is 8 million ex jws or in the shadows.. if those 8 million would have the guts to come out for a presidential candidate to come out, we can finally end the slavery, tyranny and corruption in this and many other circles.. cowards die many times but a hero only dies once.

and cowards die in revelation.. so, to you reading this, are you a coward or a true steward of the earth and creation?.

Judge sanctions WTS - $4k per day penalty for not producing sex abuse documents

by Simon in

judge sanctions jehovah's witnesses.

imposes $4000-a-day penalty for not producing documents in sex-abuse case.

by dorian hargrove, june 24, 2016. a san diego superior court judge has ordered the church of jehovah's witnesses, also known as the watchtower bible and tract society of pennsylvania, to pay $4000 a day for every day that it fails to produce documents requested in a civil lawsuit brought by former parishioner, osbaldo padron, who claims a church elder sexually abused him when he was seven years old.. in a june 23 ruling, expected to be made final today, judge richard strauss admonished the church for willfully ignoring a court order to produce all documents associated with a 1997 body of elders letter that church leaders sent to parishes around the world in a quest to learn about sexual abuse of children by church leaders.. over the course of the past year, the watchtower society and its lawyers have fought hard to keep the letter confidential, claiming that turning over the documents would infringe on the privacy of those mentioned in the letter that were not associated with the case.. in march 2015, the church turned over a heavily redacted version of the letter.

These are exciting times my friends! These are the stones falling, before the avalanche. This will be a domino affect of destruction for this CULT.

Their own arrogance will be their undoing. Their own self proclaimed delusions, will be what brings them down.

The closet doors are slowly opening. The skeletons are now, finally being exposed for ALL to see.

WE can help in bringing them down, by simply helping to expose them. The links to the articles should be photocopied by us, and distributed to news agencies, billboards, public areas, and even handed out to the rank and file JW's we see working the CARTS. All we have to do, is have them copied and ready to go. We can walk up to a cart and hand it to them.

The most important thing we can do to HELP the victims, and HEP that no more get victimized by this hateful CULT, is to send letters to the San diego court system that is handling these cases. We should THANK them for their diligence, and the good they are doing to help the victims. This will let THEM know that people ARE watching this, and interested in this, and that MANY want JUSTICE. Let them know in San Diego, that WE ARE COUNTING ON THEM FOR JUSTICE.

I bet the fines WILL go up, when they KNOW the world is watching.

Today's Text - Fear Mongering, Great Tribulation, & New Light!

by Divergent in

jw
friends

a stupid text which raises many questions -.

sunday, june 26. there will be great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world’s beginning until now, no, nor will occur again.—matt.

24:21.. the earthly part of jehovah’s organization is moving ahead in various ways.

Dunedain

The WBT$'s use of the "new light" scripture on EVERY turn, and "interpretation", and to justify ALL its MISTAKES, almost borders on OBSESSION.

Never have they had to use that scripture as much as they have in recent years. It is truly a testament to their FAILURE as being "inspired".

Really, at the end of the day, this modern version of the BORG's whole doctrine is hinging upon the "new light" scripture. It is the cornerstone of their existence, at this point.

It is, literally, all they have left. It is all they can quote, and rely on, at this point. It is ALL about BLIND OBEDIENCE, based on a CULT whos core doctrine hinges on "new light".

It is shamefull. This is no longer a religion of intellectual, interpretations, and logical findings, unearthed by well learned men. It is WEAK, and FALSE, it sways with the wind. There is NO foundation, any longer. It is built upon the shifting sands of "new light".

Their obsession with holding on to "new light" as their last straw, is making them MAD. It is driving them further into CULT mode. OBEY or DIE, is basically their MOTTO, lately. That's "new light", for ya.

Jehovah protects his people. Did he ever protect you?

by TimeBandit in

jw

hello forum.

i started this topic because i had been thinking recently about a story that i had heard many times in different congregations over the years.

kind of a jw urban legend if you will.

Dunedain

Hey Time Bandit, I remember being told a story from my own Father. It was concerning an older, German brother, in my Fathers old congregation in NYC.

This brother had a very heavy German accent, and was kind of "old school" in his tough demeanor, and NO nonsense, kind of way.

Well, him and an older sister were working out in service, and when they approached the door, a very large German shepherd was standing on top of the stairs before the door.

The dog was snarling, and barking, and appearing to be vicious. The older sister was terrified. The older German bro, however, said something in German to the dog, and kept repeating, "Do not worry sister, Jehovah will protect us".

The brother walked up the stairs, towards the vicious dog, pulled out a pair of gloves, and proceeded to WHACK the dog square on the snout, with the gloves.

The dog, stopped barking, yelped out a cry, and ran right off away down the stairs. The brother looked at the sister and said, "see, I told you Jehovah would protect us". Then, I assume they knocked on the door, and the householder probably told them to go away, anyway, lol.

The point is, it wasn't Jehovah who "saved" them, it was this hard assed German brother, who whacked the dog on the nose. Yes, HE had the "strength" to do it, HE had NO FEAR, HE had FAITH, you could say, but it was still HIM.

Another interesting thing, too, is that I have heard other variations of this story, and do indeed believe it to be a JW "urban legend" of sorts. I give credence, to this story, specifically, because my own Father told it to me, and actually KNEW the brother. There ARE many JW "legends", however, and they are "used" as faith strengthening anecdotes, and probably either encouraged or even started by the GB.

I've been found out!

by pale.emperor in

well, thats it folks.. my identity on here has been rumbled and reported to the elders.

someone, somehow, has figured out that im a member of this site and - rather than speak to me - has promptly reported me to the elders.

i just feel sad for my daughter.

Dunedain

Pale Emperor - My friend, I am being 100% SERIOUS, PLEASE PM me the elders that are harassing you, PERSONAL information. Such as NAME, ADDRESS, AGE, and so on.

I WILL PERSONALLY DESTROY THEM. FINANCIALLY, REPUTATION wise, get them FIRED FROM THEIR JOB, and slowly, and deliberately crush every aspect of their lives.

When I am thru with them, they will be withered husks of their former selves. They will be MENTALLY beaten, EMOTIONALLY ruined. Sleepless nights will abound for them. There WILL be NO comfort for their souls.

They will thurst for mercy, but none shall be given. They will hunger relief, but it shall NEVER come.

A great DARKNESS shall descend upon them, there will be NO light upon their footsteps, only MADNESS will direct them.

I am the WATCHER in the night. I am the creak upon the roof. I am the sound in the night that grips you. I am the whisper in the wind that will drive you mad. I am soul CRUSHER, I am heart stopper, I am the creeper you CANNOT see, but KNOW is there. I am the SOUND you faintly hear, that SCREAMS in your head.

BEWARE the JOB you thought was safe. BEWARE the paycheck that never comes. BEWARE the eviction from your home. BEWARE the credit card that cancels. BEWARE the insurance that doesn't pay.

I am the HURRICANE. I am the GREAT STORM. I am the FIRE that burns. They will be the ASHES that remain.

Pale Emperor, I IMPLORE you, PLEASE send these LOWLY men, MY WAY. They are DUST beneath my feet. I assure you, my friend, they have NEVER seen the likes of ME!!!!!!!
