  No Black or woman became Pope or WT President—reveals what?

  by abiather in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  sending a messenger nearly 2000 years in advance to preach the coming of gods kingdom, and leaving the message to be carried out by his followers who would practice just the opposite of his message [eg.

  catholics cannot accept a pope if he is from a black community or if sex is female, just like jws could not tolerate a black/woman wt president, which is in sharp contrast to what jesus himself practicedhe showed no partiality with regard to sex or communityhe elevated a samaritan woman sharing with her great truth, even before he did it with his own male-disciplesjohn chapter 4].

  claiming something as his own, and then allowing it to decay do not befit gods superlative style!.

  What is the main reason the Watchtower Society baptize their children so young?

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  jesus was thirty was he was baptized.

  today, you hear of young children getting baptized as young as 10 years old.

  the parents, family and congregation think it's a wonderful idea that someone dedicates their life to jehovah at such a young age.

  Why I like Jehovah's Witnesses

  by undercover witness in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i keep reading that jehovah's witnesses are in effect monsters.

  i keep reading that they kinda leave chaos and distrust in their wake.

  so i simply wondered if anyone had anything nice to say about them?.

  Shunning inactive JW? I never heard about it before....

  by Albert Einstein in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  from many of your posts ive noticed some of you, who never were df or da are practicaly shunned by your family memebers or congregation memebers.

  does that really mean they wouldnt talk to you or greet you, if they meet you on the street or if you call them?.

  i live in eastern europe and i never in my life heard about such attitude.

  What is truth?

  by spectromize in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  ah!

  yes, that remark made by pilate after pilate had asked jesus wether he was a king.

  ( john 18:37-38 ).. how would you answer the question according to what we know from the bibles definition, and how the faithful and discreet slave have endeavored to give us spiritual food at the proper time?.

  The three wise men

  by Simon in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  just a thought.... looking through the greatest man book, something just occurred to me which i can't recall has ever been highlighted (but please correct me).. i always thought it a bit strange that jehovah allowed the three pagan astrologers to find jesus especially as they were obviously guided to him by satan's star (remember they were led to herod first who wanted to kill the messiah).

  what purpose did it serve?.

  well, a few pages earlier in tgm book, we see mary presenting a dove as a sin offering at the temple - this was the cheapest offering that was acceptable which must have meant that they were pretty poor at the time.. shortly after the three wise men visited the family had to flee to egypt when herod started to kill all the young boys in an attempt to kill jesus.. what would they need to travel and live as exiles for a couple of years?.
