  JW's in the Hot Seat in Czech Republic

  by Sea Breeze in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  looks like things are heating up in the czech republic over the horrifying practice of shunning children that ask the "wrong" questions.

  kids now days have access to all of the watchtower's lies, manipulations, unnecessary deaths, flip flops, rejection of jesus as mediator etc, etc.

  i predict this issue of shunning children will continue to threaten free government money that the wt receives.

  Here's a post with video on Redditt:
  
  https://www.reddit.com/r/exjw/comments/1b71z43/news_item_from_slovakia_which_came_out_yesterday/

  Caption reads: "Several complaints about Jehovah's Witnesses are currently being dealt with by the Ministry of Culture."

  "It would be optimal if it's proved there is a violation of the law, their behaviour has been modified in some way. Therefore, should this not happen, the last resort is to revoke the registration of the church."

  No luck in finding a written article.

  Because his last shroom video went over so well? He had a laundry list of people telling him how dangerous it was, that's not what they come to his channel for, etc.

  I have been avoiding this thread for the most part; but, did someone just say he has made two videos while tripping on mushrooms? Oh dear, he's getting near the end. Doesn't he realize that it is his audience, not him that needs to be on mushrooms to be able to make sense of his babblings?

  Now, he also explained that he, as a teacher, preferred to NOT have the ritual of the Pledge every morning, and the only reason he recited it was to avoid having any "problems" or issues with any parents of his students.

  Sounds like you had a commie teacher if you ask me. Not much different than the JW's in my opinion.

  Often what happens is that JW parents berate, condemn, and mentally abuse their teeagers for bringing up legitimate questions about Watchtower, sometimes for hours. It literally drove me out of my house at age 14.
  
  Last grade I completed was the 8th grade, Married by 17.... it gets worse from there. All the JW's are under some kind of satanic spell.

  Blonde, your dad is correct of course.

  But, I doubt he would agree that he fought in 3 wars to allow JW parents kick their questioning teenagers out the house on the street and shun them.

  Kids have basic rights too.

  Do you recognize the Truth? Watchtower July, 2024

  by Listener in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the stated focus of this study article is.

  focustraining ourselves to discern the difference between the truth we have learned from jehovah and the falsehoods promoted by satan and our opposers.. of course, the article goes on to claim that the truth is not only in the bible, but also from the watchtower organization.

  the first of two qualities needed to discern truth is -.

  Funny how they never quote Jesus when he said, "I am... the Truth".

  They treat Jesus like he is little more than an errand boy who simply delivers prayers to his Father when you say the magic words: we-ask-all-this-in-Jesus-name-amen.

  Teacher called me to the front of the class and called me a communist. It was a little traumatic but I didn’t let it get under my skin. Compartmentalization was my coping mechanism

  Kids learn to supress trauma as a coping mechanism. Eventually when you are in a safe place it's necessary to deal with it if you want to heal.

  Can God Change his Mind?

  by peacefulpete in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  is 31:yet he also is wise and will bring disaster and does not retract his words.. 1 sam 15: furthermore, the eternal one of israel does not lie or change his mind, for he is not man who changes his mind.. numbers 23: god is not a man who lies, or a son of man who changes his mind.

  does he speak and not act, or promise and not fulfill?.

  when the god you worship pronounces judgement, is he, really just issuing a warning or has the matter been determined through all the godly powers of insight, foresight and perfect judgement?

  Even though God is all-powerful, allowing Him to do everything that can be done, He cannot create round squares or make 2 +2 = 5 or do anything that is logically impossible.

  2 Tim. 2: 13 says God cannot deny himself.
  

  Logic and physical rules are descriptions of how God's mind works. That is why he "cannot" do certain things.... because he cannot deny himself. Many things we experience are simply descriptions of God's mind.
