If You Refuse to Question, How Can You Be Sure of the Answer?

by xjwsrock in

..... let's pose a forbidden question....is the jw faith actually the one true religion?

if you refuse to ask this question with a true open mind and heart, how can it be said you know the answer is yes?

put another way..... if you refuse to ask this question today, how can you really say you know today that the answer is yes?.

Dunedain

I think most JW's, or at least the hardcore, brainwashed, hardliners, would say that they have the one and only true religion.

Its funny, though, because the ones who say this, are usually the same ones who never questioned anything about it. They usually have never studied other types of philosophies, scientific theories, or even how the stories/myths of the most ancient cultures like Sumeria, have the same stories that pre-date the bible.

They think they have the true religion, based on ignorance. Just like back in the day, the "great minds" thought the earth was flat, and resting on the backs of giant turtles. They believed they had the truth too.

How delusional is Tony Morris actually?

by Festus in

anthony morris iii was representing gb in international convention in helsinki, finland.

in his final talk he mentioned that at the fight of armageddon jesus will fight together with the 144 000. he then reminds the audience that one angel destroyed 185000 assyrians.

so what are "144 000 immortal creatures together with jesus going to do".

Dunedain

I thought the 144,000 were supposed to be princes who sat with Jesus to righteously JUDGE mankind.

They were not to be executioners, or the ones who act out that judgement, they were simply supposed to help Jesus read mens hearts.

This guys got it all wrong. You can clearly see the effect that having absolute POWER in this organization, has had on the GB's mindset. They are quite delusional. Clearly "puffed up with pride", and twisting scripture for their own gain.

What they do not realize, is that the execution, and judgement, is reserved for THEM. They are the ones who have dragged Jehovahs name thru the mud. They are the ones who have brought tremendous reproach upon his name.

The "keys" to the Kingdom were entrusted to them, and when Jesus comes back to inspect, then these GB members will learn the meaning of judgement, they will learn the meaning of execution. The second death shall be upon their heads.

" Behold I see a white horse and its rider. "

Elders and Attendants sing, clap and turn backs on Street Preacher after Duluth RC.

by ToesUp in

very strange behavior by the attendants and elders after the duluth, ga, rc.

on the first link the attendants start to exit the arena, then line up and turn their backs on the street preachers.

(around the 6:00 mark).. elders and attendants after duluth rc.

Dunedain

WOW, that was cringe worthy on so many levels, lol.

Did you notice when the first Elders walked out towards him @ around 5:40, they kept turning around and looking behind them, to make sure all the other elders were coming out too, lol. They did not want to be the only ones walking out , they had to make sure all their "back up" was behind them.

Another thing I was thinking, was that all the other brothers that were NOT standing there in the "elder line", and were walking out of the convention, must have felt like they were "less important", since they didn't have an orange lanyard, and weren't asked to be in the "line" of clapping idiots singing. Probably walking out, with their heads hanging low in shame, saying, "Damn why wasn't I asked to come out", "I am walking with the woman and children, shit".

I have to say too, that the dude with the amplifier sure has BALLS to do that crap alone, and surrounded by a bunch of dudes in suits that would love to rip your heart out, and feed it to you. I am NOT saying what he did was brave, or commendable in any way, it just takes a set of balls to do that. He was clearly a bit off his rocker, and was saying nothing of merit. He sounded stupid, in all honesty, but DAMN, what a crazy and ballsy bastard.

For those that think this was "staged" in any way by the org, to show persecution or something, I really don't think so. You could kind of tell, it was one or two, crazy rogue, nut jobs, that really believed they were speaking "profoundly".

One last thought, the JW's will always justify acting this way, by getting a bit rough and in someones face, because they use the scripture of Jesus righteous indignation, when he flipped the tables of the merchants in the temple, and threw them out. Any JW will have that scripture in their head to justify getting little "handsy" with someone who is disrupting the "show".

Crazies on BOTH sides here.

What will Tony say?

by konceptual99 in

genuine picture from a convention in holland.

what will tony say?!.

Dunedain

Growing up in the NYC area of the U.S., there were many black witnesses that were at the conventions we attended. It was just how the demographic was in this part of the country.

Well I assure you there were some very colorful suits around, lol.

Are the Jehovah's Witnesses really false prophets, perhaps being mentally manipulated by the Watchtower Corporation ? ?

by Finkelstein in

there is a lot of public scrutiny going on these days about the jw religion particularly on the inter - net.

one of the posed questions which gets debated and discussed quite often, are the jws false prophets instigated to preach a tainted commercialized gospel under the direction of the executive leaders of the watchtower corporation ?

these focused men who are responsible for creating the core doctrines of this organization.

Dunedain

Peely - I too feel exactly the same way, now. It seems quite evident that the WTBS has gone off the "rails". It has been hijacked by an evil slave, and they are running it now.

I think there were some GB members who were sincere, and were maybe ousted like Henschel was. It is clear, though, that now, the GB is fully being controlled by Satan.

Satan does not come with horns and pitchfork. He comes in suit, and tie, with pinky rings. They claim to be speaking truths, but are only spewing blasphemy.

Peely - I really appreciate those scriptures you posted above. Its nice to see it clearly. Those scriptures are going to be very useful, as I will have them shown to a few JW's that are starting to see what we see. Using actual scriptures like those, and under the context of what we are speaking about, is a great way to "wake" up some still in the Org, but who are questioning things.

If we come at them with a bunch of words and theories, it may be lost on them, but if we show them using their own bible, it will have a greater effect. Thank you, I can guarantee those scriptures will be used to great advantage.

Isnt it "funny" how the article says that the JW's that were out door to door, and being questioned by the media, SLAMMED the van door in their face.

Well isn't that interesting. The JW's have been lamenting for years how they are SOOO rudely treated, and always getting doors slammed in THEIR FACES.

Well they sure as shit know how to slam doors in other peoples faces, when the "need" arises.

HYPOCRITES.

Their sins have amassed up in heaven, indeed.

Not too my son...

by The Rebel in

jw
friends

will i say " orlando, your hair is too long, and needs to be cut short" and never will i say " orlando, invites to birthday parties can't be accepted".

and i will buy my son books he wants to read, books that bring him happiness, and that he understands.

and by so doing, i hope he will acquire happy memories of his childhood, so that the sensitive and delicate, in him will be allowed to grow.

These kind of good experiences with our children, really warm my heart.

I was a "born in", and my whole childhood was in the "truth". We all know the deal, NO Christmas, birthdays, holidays, organized sports, no real emphasis on higher education, and all that. Even as a "normal" boy growing up, I wanted to play with certain toys, but couldn't. No play guns, no army men, no GI Joes. It may not sound like a big deal now, but when you are a child, it is EVERYTHING.

I feel that certain aspects of my childhood were stolen from me. I do have to say, though, that my family DID go on many vacations. We DID have one day a year, called "family day", where my parents gave me and my sister some gifts. It was an attempt to make up for lack of Christmas and B days.

My parents are still alive, and now I have my own children. Its funny but, I believe my parents are kind of "awake" now. My father, a few years ago, made an attempt to try and apologize for bringing us up in the Borg, but I kinda stopped him before he said it, and said it was all OK. For some reason, I couldn't let my Father feel burdened with him thinking that, so I laid it to rest, before it even started.

My real way of making this RIGHT, is raising my daughters. We enjoys life to the fullest. I am lucky enough to be self employed, and be able to have REAL time to spend with my daughters. We live a financially comfortable life, but not at the expense of me being a Father who works constantly and misses my children growing up.

I have been there from the beginning, and can enjoy ALL their activities, and whatever things they are involved in. We enjoy holidays, we enjoy birthdays, we enjoy being a stable, loving family. There is no stress to slave for an organization that doesn't give two shits about you. There is no unnecessary pressure put upon my children to have to live up to man made rules, and expectations. My love for them is not conditional on if they are "spiritually" strong enough. My love for them is not conditional on if they are striving for "privileges" in a man made organization.

It is REAL love. A love for them, and for the beautiful hearts they have, and the wonderful young humans they truly are. I am proud of the job I did raising them AWAY from the "truth". They are kind hearted, well intentioned, decent, and real human beings. I helped them be this way, by NOT raising them in the "truth".

They have had some recent windfalls of money lately, that's very true. However, their STEADY sources of income are drying up.

For years they were able to "milk" the cow. Now, however, they have butchered the cow. Yes, they have made a lot of money by selling the meat, but once that money is gone, there is NO more cow to milk, or butcher.

Jehovah's Witnesses Propaganda & Hypocrisy Video

by Brokeback Watchtower in

i didn't make this video it just showed up in my utube web page, god i love utube.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iyv5lg1uh0o.

Dunedain

The irony of this is at the ultimate level. Lets really think about this. There is a JW actor/musician, playing a part in a video, about NOT going into acting and music.

This is ridiculous. It would be comical, if it wasn't so EVIL in its hypocrisy, and sinister in that it WILL affect human beings in a harmful way.

"Staring" in these videos, is the modern equivalent of when someone in "good standing", used to be featured in the Watchtower or Awake rags. You were considered "spiritually strong" if a picture of you ever made it into the magazines. I can only imagine the fanfare someone must get in the borg, if they are featured in a video.

This kind of hypocrisy has existed in this cult for years. I personally knew of a "sister" who LIED about her past, so she could be featured in a Watchtower magazine. Well, the article in the mag was about CHILD BIRTH. Guess what, a number of years earlier, SHE HAD AN ABORTION, and was DFd for it.

It shows how people in this Borg will lie, and hide whats really going on, just to up their "status". Whether this brother is deceiving the Borg, or not, either way the WTBS is guilty of HYPOCRISY, and not checking backgrounds, all for a better propaganda machine.

Her sins have amassed high unto the heavens.
