  Wow, 249 acres of "facilities" needed to make videos? What a scam.

  

  
  

  Town of Ramapo, New York

  A facility for the creation and production of audio and video/film recordings in an integrated working, living, and worship facility for members of the Jehovah’s Witnesses’ religious and assisting religious volunteers. A new mixed-use MU-3 Zoning District is proposed to facilitate the development of this integrated facility.

  The 249-acre site will host audio and video production studios and facilities to support operations of the nearby world headquarters of Jehovah’s Witnesses. On-site facilities include offices, maintenance and set production workshops, and a central energy plant. Accommodations for the resident staff include 645 residential units, dining/assembly spaces, recreation/wellness/fitness facilities, and a clinic.

  ----------- end quote ----------

  
  

  For contrast --- One Apostate can make thousands of videos in his mother in-laws' basement.

  
  

  Gotta have those recreational facilities too huh Watchtower? Indoor basketball courts with those nasty little signs about how no one except "authorized personnel" can use them right? All the while thousands of JW kids are sitting at home bored to death because they can't play sports or afford their own multi-million dollar private facilities.

  "They bind heavy burdens...grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers". - Jesus

  enoughisenough - Trinity only means a tri-union. The bible says that you are a trinity. Do you believe that?

  Colossians 2:9

  For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

  
  

  Acts 17:29

  Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.

  
  

  Romans 1:20

  For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

  
  

  You will never understand the tripartite nature of the Godhead until you accept the tripartite nature of man described in scripture because Jesus was also fully man.

  @Rolrod

  That is heresy.

  “The Son is of the Father alone, not made, nor created, but begotten” (The Athanasian Creed, verse 22).

  According to the Bible, and to the ancient creeds of Christianity, the Son of God is eternal. There was never a time when He did not exist. God did not create Jesus.
  
  John 1:1–3 says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made.”

  @SBF - Universities are full of people with PhD’s that try to discredit orthodox Christian beliefs. Dr. McGrath is just one of many. Surprise, surprise - he no longer believes the bible is inerrant, nor does he believe Jesus is coming back even though that is exactly what Jesus said he would do and what other scriptures clearly read.

  “Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.” - Acts 1: 11

  McGrath is just another heretic. They had them in the first century, and we have them now.... nothing new under the sun.

  I was surprised at the elaborate sets, costumes and props that are used. All that costs A LOT of money. Hand forging spear tips? C'mon...it's like they are bragging about how much they are spending.

  It is all so confusing. In 2015 they were begging for money stating that they needed to build around 1600 new Kingdom Halls right NOW, Then, they began a big sell off of Kingdom Halls while dumping bucket loads of cash into huge film sets and production properties.
  
  A the very least this makes them look like liars.

  Jehovah's Witnesses and Apostates

  by tfjw in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  jehovah's witnesses basically define the term "apostate" as someone who was once a member of the "organization" (a jehovah's witness) but no longer follows the teachings, rules, regulations and practices.

  the society gives their official definition in the following manner: "apostasy is abandoning or deserting the worship and service of god, actually a rebellion against jehovah god.

  some apostates profess to know and serve god but reject teachings or requirements set out in his word.
