  Silent And Sweet Rebellion Going On Within JW Organization!

  by lsw1961 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  after 1975, the vast majority remained as though nothing has happened.

  but some left the organization.

  however, there arose a third category who did not leave the organization, but brought a new view into their heart: jws are right in their core cause (gods kingdom as the solution to mankinds problems) but may or may not be right in their supplementary teachings, hence are not bothered about changes happening in this unimportant area..

  Personally the problem with wtbts is eventually you may have to work out with Tight Pants Tony.

  
  

  Just keep that in mind....

  Brother Tim Horton, the new service overseer

  by dropoffyourkeylee in

  2. humour

  stopped in tim horton's ( a donut shop) at 10:00 a m today and there were no less than 12 jws in there from three different car groups.

  it took about 25-30 minutes for them all to get their orders and get on their way.

  that's almost 6 hours of service time in the glorious 'ministry'.

  "Between the glazed look on the householders faces and the holes in their doctrines, donuts are often the first thing JW's think of when they're out in service."

  LOL!! Sadly that statement is truer than one would think.

  so i decided yesterday to give my wife's full disclosure.

  not sure it was the best decision considering she holds very firmly to the resurrection hope so we can see our babies again.. anyways she is agreeable to begin a study to find a better truth.

  where is a good place to go to get some good reliable biblical info on the web that we can consider together?.

  I didn't want to start a new thread but I have a question.

  JW's deny the deity of Christ correct? We are told that he is a creation by God Almighty. So because we deny the deity of Christ, that makes JW's non-Christians? So basically if the wife and I fall off the earth today, does that mean we would never have the chance to see our babies again???!!

  I would venture to say by denying the deity of Christ, we are in effect saying we don't have faith in Him which is a requirement for salvation???!!!

  EoM "interlinear bibles showing the direct hebrew to english word translation, etc, if you want to really get literal."

  I found this to be helpful looking up text like in John 1:1 and Romans 10:12-13. There is an online inter linear site that has been a great help!

  Splash "Don't jump from the frying pan into the fire."

  Yea I think I got carried away after meeting last night. Had a headache from trying to block out all the nonsense and then that final song was like icing on the cake. Lost it for a bit.

  I'll probably pick up both those translations mentioned and give them a whirl. Thanks!

  Would an NIV bible be a good translation to work with? Seems to me that Jesus and God are one and the same. The NWT bible doesn't make it very easy to explain...

  How are the congregation to save money for a new hall now if they can only have 3 months of bills plus, in addition, another $5000 in the bank per auditorium?

  well tomorrow is a big day for me.

  i'm finally going to be interviewed by the police about what happened to me as a kid.. im running the whole gamut of emotions at the moment.

  sad, anxious, angry, guilt, fear and many more that cannot be quantified.. i feel physically sick, cannot sleep, have lost my appetite and i am desperately trying not to self harm.. i've got my sister to thank for getting this far.

  Just read your story and I'm without words. So very sorry for what happened to you.

  May those pinky ring wearing donkeys get what's coming to them.

  Not sure how I feel personally. If it was totally up to me id disassociate myself today but my wife is really ingrained in the wts so I dont want to freak her out.

  Already I have removed myself of all responsibilities but it doesn't feel like enough.

  By the way, reading CoC has been a real eye opener and is a big help to anyone looking for ttatt.
