  Why have there been so many people blind to the corruption of the Watchtower Corporation ?

  by Finkelstein in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  based from many of the doctrines the wts has come forth with since its existence as publishing house which were obviously incorrect or false and propagated doesn't make you wonder why there were so many who embraced this organization with full devotion and acceptance ?

  even back in the late 1800's there was scrutinizing skepticism to what the leaders of the wts theologically taught.

  millions of people since then have accepted the teachings of a really couple novice bible theologians, who brought forth many weakly supported doctrines such as and concerning that mankind was living in the end times and all of mankind should be prepared for its imminent destruction.. very view other christian based faiths from catholicism or protestantism have made these kind of outlandish doctrinal assertions and they make up an overwhelming greater amount of practicing theologians, to those who achieved a high a level of academic training in bible theory.

  27 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of the bones of the dead and everything unclean.

  Matthew 23:27 | NIV

  For an outsider, these people look incredibly inviting. That is why the org wants people at the meetings so they can see how beautiful it is.

  I think in people's minds they can excuse the false teachings because "there is no other brotherhood in the world like ours (theirs)".

  Nobody at work knows what JWs believe

  by Athanasius in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  recently susie, one of my co-workers mentioned that her husband's family were all jws.

  the family converted after susie's husband left home, so he never joined the jws, nor does he intend to.

  anyway another co-worker asked her: "what do the jws believe?".

  It's all a test of their loyalty to the organization. Most witnesses can't keep up with all the changes unless they are constantly plugged in. I recon even those who are plugged in wouldnt know that earthly hopers don't believe Jesus is their personal mediator.

  With all the changes since 2013 I was really surprised how little I knew about my own beliefs until I left.

  Judge sanctions WTS - $4k per day penalty for not producing sex abuse documents

  judge sanctions jehovah's witnesses.

  imposes $4000-a-day penalty for not producing documents in sex-abuse case.

  by dorian hargrove, june 24, 2016. a san diego superior court judge has ordered the church of jehovah's witnesses, also known as the watchtower bible and tract society of pennsylvania, to pay $4000 a day for every day that it fails to produce documents requested in a civil lawsuit brought by former parishioner, osbaldo padron, who claims a church elder sexually abused him when he was seven years old.. in a june 23 ruling, expected to be made final today, judge richard strauss admonished the church for willfully ignoring a court order to produce all documents associated with a 1997 body of elders letter that church leaders sent to parishes around the world in a quest to learn about sexual abuse of children by church leaders.. over the course of the past year, the watchtower society and its lawyers have fought hard to keep the letter confidential, claiming that turning over the documents would infringe on the privacy of those mentioned in the letter that were not associated with the case.. in march 2015, the church turned over a heavily redacted version of the letter.

  Jehovah protects his people. Did he ever protect you?

  hello forum.

  i started this topic because i had been thinking recently about a story that i had heard many times in different congregations over the years.

  kind of a jw urban legend if you will.

  I used to think God was protecting and helping me.

  For example: I had to quit smoking before becoming a witless and I did. I claimed it was because of constant prayer and reliance on Jokeovah. It had nothing at all to do with the fact that I refused to buy a pack of smokes and that I avoided all contact with people who smoked for a month. 😳

  There was a day in serve us that I was surrounded by 3 wild dogs. The gumps in the car just watched as I was about to become dinner. I slowly backed away and the dogs left me alone. I claimed it was god. Now I see it as coincidence.

  Last year with all the bull the wife and I went through I finally realized God could give a rats ass about his people no matter how hard you work.

  I personally think some people are just more lucky than others. Nothing more to read into there. Some people just get a higher dice roll than others in a given situation.

  Good news indeed!! Even if it takes some time for this to become legal, people need this book. 50 pages in and my conscience was no longer plagued by missing meetings and service for the org.

  Every dub needs this book available to aid in recovery and getting out of the cult.

  So robotic and fake my goodness. How can grown adults be such dullards to be able to think that this garbage can actually work in a realistic setting?

  Perhaps if they were not built on total lies and deception. So no.
