john 14:6 - "jesus said to him, “i am the way, the truth, and the life.
no one comes to the father except through me.".
certain christian denominations lie & contradict jesus' crystal clear statement, by promoting the following dogma:.
aqwsed12345,
Yawn.
I think you need to head over to the Roman Catholic Church Discussion forum because most pomo jws here have no time for organised religion like the RCC, or for people that just copy and paste lengthy articles from unknown sources that are so long that nobody bothers reading them to the end.
the trinity doctrine says god is three persons in one being.. yet the bible says god is one.. gal 3.20 a mediator, however, implies more than one party; but god is one.
niv.
gal 3.20 now a mediator is not for just one person, but god is one.
Am I right to assume that the person arguing for acceptance of belief that Jesus was and is God also accepts therefore that Mary was the Mother of God?
Not arguing, just asking.

grandpa!.
Thank-you so much.
a slightly tongue in cheek, but also serious roundup of jw speak and why trying to reason with them is like trying to chip through concrete with a plastic spoon.. how many can you think of??.
elder: 'yes.
i read through the material you asked me to at your judicial meeting - you're right we're both in a cult!
"Would you mind holding my spliff brother, just while I re-tie my shoelaces?"
does anyone remember seeing old watchtowers in their kingdom hall library before they destroyed them all, of the watchtower annoucing jehovah from pleiades kingdom.
i am 72 years old and i remeber seeing these old magazines somewhere..
Here's the proof in print from the Reconciliation book.
what’s keeping them?
this has got to be the latest it’s ever been.
maybe it’s the last one they’ll ever publish too, after dropping reporting hours for publishers ….

Well apparently the midweek meeting for February 12-18 has an item on the service report -
omg!.
have you seen the latest wt society's way of engaging with their audience?
cartoon bible stories.
Drearyweather,
Thank-you. I assumed it was a new thing because that's where it appears on their JW org page under the "what's new" heading. See screenshot below:
i spotted this article on an irish news channel's webpage and thought you might have something to say about the idea.
perhaps in the future jws will replace their robotic elders with actual robots, what do you think?
we could consult with ai jesus to see what he thinks about the idea.

OMG!
Have you seen the latest WT Society's way of engaging with their audience? Cartoon bible stories. Many of us can remember the heavy books of old with their pages full of closely typed lines with hardly any illustrations or no pictures at all.
And now this. Talk about dumbing things down.
someone asked me recently when did i start to have doubts as an elder about what i was teaching from the platform.. i have given it a lot of thought and i can say that it was when i was delivering a public talk about the book of hebrews.
so i paused and read it again.. i looked at the audience and said to them let's look at the cross-reference for this verse which is hebrews 12:22 and i read that verse.
after which i remember saying "and this is how the outline puts it.... " and i read from the outline verbatim.. abraham was not looking forward to an earthly kingdom hope.

Thank-you for your kind words.
I hated trying to explain WT interpretation verses to Bible studies as well.
Another belief that I could never accept was that Jesus was the archangel Michael. It never made sense to me. It rendered null and void the line of reasoning in the opening chapter of Hebrews.
"13 And to which of the angels has he ever said, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet”?"
Well he said it to Michael.
" 5 For to which of the angels did God ever say, “You are my Son, today I have begotten you”? Or again, “I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son”? "
Um, well, he said it to the chief angel Michael....
Illogical.
