NINE REVERSALS IN JULY 15TH WATCHTOWER
by The Searcher inhere's what i scavenged from the most notable watchtower i've ever read.
it may be far more significant than many people realise!.
and before anyone whinges that one or two are 'old light', the fact remains that all of them are rejecting what was once 'inspired truth' from the revered fds, and disagreeing with any one of these (now current) falsehoods would have resulted in your "stoning to death" and shunning by all whom you loved.

All of these changes are reversals - they are not enhancements or 'new light' on long held beliefs - and clearly, they seriously contradict what the Reasoning Book, Insight Books, and decades of Watchtowers taught us to believe was God-given truth!
These are what was once taught as 'truth' by God's sole channel of communication!
1. The Great Tribulation started in 1914 & ended in 1918 - Page 3, par 3.
2. The judging of the sheep and goats began in 1914 - Page 6, par 10
3. Those who die before the Great Tribulation and have rejected the Kingdom message will not be resurrected.
4. Russell promised for decades that all the anointed were going to heaven in 1914 Page 12 par 8.
5. Babylon the Great (world empire of false religion) fell in 1919 - Page 12, par 11
6. The Faithful & Discreet Slave was appointed at Pentecost 33 C.E. Page 20, par 3
7. The 'domestics' are only the anointed - Page 23, par 13
8. There is an 'evil slave class' - Box on Page 24 *
9. Jesus appointed the FDS over all his belongings in 1919 - Page 24, pars 15,16
* It's noteworthy that the WTBTS uses a quote from one of apostate Christendom's Bible Scholars, to justify their new teaching that there is no such thing as "an evil slave class". (See the NET Bible online - Matt. 24:48 footnote)

Apologies to all for the delay, who asked for the 8 reversals/abandonment of doctrines which I found in the July 15th Watchtower - I had to deal with some of 'life's trials'.
Anyway, second apology = there are nine reversals! Here's what I scavenged from the most notable Watchtower I've ever read. It may be far more significant than many people realise!

WTBTS TELLS THE TRUTH!

but in order to appear as a loving united, brotherhood, only half-truths can be told.

PARTIALLY!!!!!!!
The following statements by the WTBTS are true - up to a point!
But in order to appear as a loving united, brotherhood, only half-truths can be told. Otherwise, the vast majority (if not all) of the 8.7 million people who study with JWs would terminate their "Bible teaching" forthwith!
Satan spoke half-truth in the Garden of Eden - here is the WTBTS own contribution:
http://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/faq/shunning/
Do You Shun Former Members of Your Religion?
"Those who were baptized as Jehovah’s Witnesses but no longer preach to others, perhaps even drifting away from association with fellow believers, are not shunned. In fact, we reach out to them and try to rekindle their spiritual interest."
( This is true - So far so good - now for the weasel-words!)
"We do not automatically disfellowship someone who commits a serious sin. If, however, a baptized Witness makes a practice of 1) breaking the Bible’s moral code and does not repent, 2) he or she will be shunned or disfellowshipped. The Bible clearly states: 3) "Remove the wicked man from among yourselves." —1 Corinthians 5:13.
1) "Breaking the Bible's moral code" - they do not mention that speaking to other Witnesses about questionable WTBTS teachings is included in this, and for doing so, your friends and family will be cut off from you if you do not keep your mouth shut!
2) "He or she will be shunned or disfellowshipped" - Not one or the other - both!
3) "Remove the wicked man" - The person is not just to be removed, they have to be denied all physical, social, emotional, and verbal contact by all JWs - especially family members!
In a nutshell, there should be Government Health warnings given, outlining the whole truth, which is this:
"By becoming one of JWs you will be subject to social & emotional 'stoning to death' if you ever dare question the information fed to you from the WTBTS. Having beeen "counselled" to abandon all of your former acquaintances and friends, (1 Cor. 15:33) your new found family of friends will be instructed to abandon you! Also, any members of your family who are Witnesses will also be subject to participating in your "execution" process. Anyone who does not share in the witch-hunt, and even converses with you, will face the same fate as you!

FOLLOW the MONEY!
by The Searcher ini'm sure that most (if not all) on jwn want to open up the eyes and minds of all those who are blinded, not only to bible teachings, but also to the immorality of the monetary system operated by the wtbts.. every witness and ex-witness on here will openly admit how stupid and gullible they were before learning ttatt, myself included.
so rather than condemning r/f witnesses, do the christian thing and show human compassion.. to aid (shock!
) such ones, can anyone ascertain the approximate market value of the britain branch properties in london?

The Searcher
Even if monetary valuations can't be obtained, the basic question* is still reasonable, pertinent, and most of all, demands an answer for everyone who is likely to donate to this monumental property speculation.
* "Before any resolution is proposed regarding donations for a new Branch complex, can the Elders tell the congregation why donations are required, when the sale of the present Branch will realise more money than is required for the new one?"

If such a figure can be verified, it would enable "still-in" Witnesses to ask one simple question of the CoBE when he reads the crunch letter from Bethel regarding funding of the new Branch Office - "Why does the Society need brothers' and sisters' money, when the property being sold is worth many mi££ions more than the cost to build a new complex? Where is all that money going???"
We were promised "further letters" to keep us updated regarding the project. (the project to lighten our wallets!) Therefore, before any "loving body of elders" proposes a resolution to relieve their Congregation's bank account of a lump sum for the new real estate venture, (without questions being raised) it would be invaluable to have solid figures to hand.
Your input will be greatly appreciated - far greater than you might realise!

Being told you are hated by everyone?
by trailerfitter inokay, after a discussion with the seperated wife who admitted that because she is a jehovahs witness that she expects to be hated by everyone.
she expressed that she was "foreign" and not the same as others since she is not of this world.
okay, reality check - this is actually taught by the watchtower?

When Jesus said, " YOU will be objects of hatred by all the nations on account of my name", (Matt.24:9) he was warning his 1st century disciples as to what they as Christians would experience, not what a 20th - 21st hybrid religion with a new unscriptural "designer name" would experience. (on account of Jesus' name - not the name of Jehovah!)
The Bible scholar Clarke wrote an excellent summary of how Jesus' warnings at Matthew chapter 24 were all fulfilled during the "end" of that Jewish generation at 70 C.E. - even verse 14, as Paul testified at Colossians 1:23; "the hope of that good news which YOU heard, and which was preached in all creation that is under heaven."
