Fascinating Quotations of The Faithful Slave

by Vanderhoven7 in

do you have any amazing quotations that have been produced by the faithful slave over the years?.

remember it's important that we should learn to love and value truth for it’s own sake; to respect and honor it by owning and acknowledging it wherever we find it and by whomever presented.

a truth presented by the faithful slave himself is just as true as a truth stated by god.. share some of those amazing quotations that have fascinated you.

The very fact that we are experiencing such hatred is proof that we have Jehovah’s approval. (Matt. 5:11, 12)

Watchtower July 2022 page 9

This is illogical interpretation of Matt 5:11,12 where if you accept the application, then any association of people no matter how bizarre their teachings could be “proved” to be the trueTM christians.

friends

the last 2 1/2 years have been extremely stressful.

while the rest of the world was dealing with covid, i was also dealing with cancer.

in fact it seems none of my doctors knew about it.

What a relief you must be feeling.

This world’s not done with you yet, Lee!

Time for another drop of red.

Cheers,

There is also a deep conflict of interest in his use of exploited women and girls and his CSA, domestic violence and sexual assault advocacy. His fraudulent insistence that he cares for those leaving Watchtower has been exposed as a lie and his activism nothing but fiscal self interest - for which he has cruelly driven off anyone who is a threat or with a dissenting opinion to his.

This is so well expressed and “puts it in a nutshell” so to speak.

WHEN is the Kingdom of God coming?

by Fisherman in

when is the kingdom of god coming?.

on being asked by the pharisees when the kingdom of god was coming, he answered them: “the kingdom of god is not coming with paratherisis; 21 nor will people say, ‘see here!’ or, ‘there!’ for look!

the kingdom of god is in your midst.” —lu 17:20,21. .

Ah yes, BB, the well-trodden path through Matthew 24 !

Yet curiously seldom do they comment, let alone highlight, the very first part of the “sign” in verse 4.

I guess it would incriminate them, eh? 🤔

“one of the most sophisticated and well-organised mass cover ups of CSA”

What’s he on about? Sounds like he’s leading an expose.

I’m presuming that for LJE the emphasis is on “consenting” rather than “adult”?

So… a Thailand “girlfriend” may be consenting but not adult.

that would be the point

Society's list of publications to trash ASAP!

by RolRod in

.

ozziepost

Most of the quotations from secular publications and encyclopaedia contained in the RS book as I recall were so vastly out-of-date, it used to be embarrassing making reference to them when I used to share in the door to door service.

On the other hand it was a useful ‘tool’ and most householders didn’t know how to argue against it.

Have they done away with it? If they have, I would think it’s a backward step (from their point of view, of course! )

If the related accusations are completely false why keep on mentioning consenting?
Thoughts?

I can just about remember the days of being in dubdom but I can recall that they (the great theocrats) would tell us that the people out in “the world” are sinful, without restraint.

it seems to me that “lloyd” needs to be re-assured of that by justifying his nefarious activities with the qualifying phrase “consenting adults”.
