  Convention

  by Gorbatchov in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  gorby is as you know a long time fader.. visited the convention this weekend.. and concluded that samuel herds talk about hope was not so bad at all, it was well balanced.

  made some good points.. knowing both sides of the medallion, have to admit he was humble with a focus on hope.. the saturday drama impressed me.

  of course, there is a lot to say about the organization, this professional produced movie in a "true story" scenario, gave me the insight that hope is important for suffering people.

  You think it's admirable to use emotional blackmail and use the tricks any charismatic cult leader or Ad Man uses to get people to feel or to do what they don't want to do?

  Remember their proposed hope is based on doing whatever the GB tells you to do including not living a normal life. That is not hope worthy of a human.

  Also, for many time is running out on when there will be no amount of Overlapping Generations to get push this Cult forward.

  Then what do all these people with a false hope that kept them from productive lives and enriching human relationships do?

  At least they are not Hypocrites.

  [spoiler: pokemon is an invitation to communication with or possession by demons because... well... pokemon comes from demons.

  Of course its demonic!
  
  Think about it - you only see THEM when you get this "game" somehow transmitted to you invisibly through the air! Only Jehober has the right to beam messages to the GB that way.

  Also you need this Magic Box in your hand to play it.

  And Nobody else around you see those things!
  
  MAN THIS IS WORSE THAN SMURFS!!!!
  
  Exorcist anyone!

  Yes all of Romans 14 is a Conversation Stopper in that case.

  It is a pretty clear LEAVE ME ALONE, and Jesus is the one telling you this.

  Its a good one to read in full.

  WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS

  “Jehovah is near to all . . . who call on him in truth.”—Psalm 145:18.

  -----------------------
  

  So...
  Can someone tell me how that scripture answers that multiple choice question?

  I know when I was a kid I sometimes would ask for a toy - and though my mom heard my plea, and she was "near" me physically and as a loving parent - I did not get the toy.

  Is the word "near" in the bible have the secret meaning of "I answer prayers of Jehobers Bitnesses"?

  Changes & Clarifications on our belief. DOMINO EFFECT blamed for late coming into print

  by TheWonderofYou in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in the august broadcast bro splane explains this point deeper.. when the brothers are sitting together and joyfully speaking about clarification of jw belief, they often encounter and deal with that "domino-effect" when one scripture has effects on others.

  so all changes are carefully considered before they come into print, one after the other but late.. lately he mentions the "godfathers" brother jaracz , barr as good examples of reading the bible progressivly, they were very progressive at there time.

  what ever this could mean he did not explain it?.

  Seem so strange that they are there with their iPads and the "householder" has his bible all marked up with notes.
