  The important question : loyalty and devotion to whom, the leaders of the WTS/JWorg. or Jesus Christ ?

  by Finkelstein in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  since 1919 the men who ran the wts.

  publishing house proclaimed that god jehovah has chosen the ibsa later on the jehovah's witnesses, in that they were solemnly chosen exclusively for their close adherence and accurate interpretation of the bible.. .

  the truthful reality is quite the contrary, the doctrines these men created were many times false and unscriptural , causing great personal problems including suicides and deaths to those who made themselves devoted to these men.. during the baptism of becoming a jws you would have to make a sworn vow of devotion to these men, who self describe themselves as the fdsl.. in reading the bible and the words of jesus christ it's obvious the leaders of this organization enacted themselves in apostasy opposed to the directions handed out by jesus in preaching his gospel.. they became discreetly unloyal to god as it were and lured in many to do the same in acts of coercion utilized by their publishing capabilities and the distribution of their literature to the public... .

  Fink, when I first started doing real research into JW history I found this on Wikipedia:

  "International Bible Students Association[edit]

  The International Bible Students Association (IBSA) is a corporate not-for-profit organization used by Jehovah's Witnesses in the United Kingdom for the production and distribution of religious literature. Its stated purpose is "to promote the Christian religion by supporting congregations of Jehovah's Witnesses and others in connection with their spiritual and material welfare in Britain and abroad within the charitable purposes of the Association."[22]

  The IBSA was founded in 1914 as a corporation of the Bible Students by Charles Taze Russell in London, England, and was the first legal corporation representing Russell's ministry in Europe. The Watch Tower Society stated in 1917 that the IBSA, along with its Pennsylvania and New York based corporations "were organized for identical purposes and they harmoniously work together."[23] Other similarly named corporations operate in various countries to promote the interests of Jehovah's Witnesses."

  So if Jesus supposedly chose Jehovah's Witnesses as his people in 1919, wouldn't the IBSA be his chosen people instead? Since JWs were not technically "Jehovah's Witnesses" until 1931? Am I missing something here?

  @sir 82 Because that's probably the way they will need to dress in 'Paradise'. That is until they become perfect and will no longer need clothes!

  i was doing research on the political powers in the u.s. and what exactly was the drive, goals, and ambitions between the different parties.

  i stumbled upon information regarding the illuminati/rothchild family having great power throughout the world with different parties and the rothchild's goal to have a new world order from hundreds of years back and how they were involved in satanic worship.

  it was interesting to see that c.t.

  @ datadog, have you read any of Mauro Biglino's work? He was the head translator for the Vatican for many years but was let go when he began saying the bible does not talk about god when read in the literal sense. He believes Yahweh was a flesh and blood person.

  I really enjoyed listening to his interviews even with the lousy interpreter (Mauro is Italian). I found some of his points fascinating, however he also believes that human beings were genetically modified & created by an advanced race. Here is a link to an article about him for anyone interested.

  friends,.

  with the circular speading of my satire tread about the annual meeting on many different ways, even informal across the jw organization, i'm pretty sure that the news about russia (new king of the north) is not real.. there was a moment i thought that it was a coïncidence that incoming messages mentioned it also.. now i suppose it started all with my op, went trending through the organization (even through bethel belgium) and became a story on it's own.. this is not realy my style and i'm not proud of it.. g..

  My father in law (current elder) called my spouse all the way from Oz on Saturday to tell him the news. He has a relative in Bethel that spilled the beans to him about Russia being King of the North. (was told to not reveal news to anyone). One thing JW's are good at is spreading rumors and gossiping.

  at this moment, we are in the jewish month of tishri.

  it is the first month of the civil calendar and is the 7th month.. research quickly shows its deep religious significance, including solemn feasts such as the day of atonement, gedaliah, etc.:.

  Waton- I remember giving the WT talk on the atonement day, festival of tabernacles, huts and the goat for Azazel chased into the wilderness, wt tied the whole thing to Jesus sacrifice

  Was this a long time ago? I dont remember hearing any talks mentioning specific demons names growing up as a JW in the 90's? Unless I just wasn't paying attention..
