this is what jesus said.
matt 24-14.
14 and this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.. looking at this verse what is the central theme?
Hang on a second...
Do they preach about Gods Kingdom? NO instead they believe an angel named
Moroni provided gold plates in upstate New York which was the basics for book of Mormon
Mormons do indeed preach Gods Kingdom. But it's their interpretation of what that is. I could quite easily say that Jehovah's Witnesses preach 1914, overlapping generations and tight pants - which Jesus didnt do.
alex - thank you for your offer to have a conversation about evolution.. i accept the scientific evidence that all life - including humans - evolved from a common ancestor through unguided evolution over millions of years.
this isn't even a controversial position in the scientific community.. the evidence rests on the data from many interconnected fields including paleontology, comparative anatomy, geology and especially genetics.
it is no exaggeration to say that the evidence for your own non-human ancestry is contained in every cell in your body.. it is my experience that jws are generally quite ignorant (not in a pejorative sense) of the scientific case.
Was that it from the JW corner? Alex lasted 3 posts?
Almost feel sorry for him. That was a terrible attempt.

2:13.courageous men who are willing to take on more responsibility are a blessing to a congregation.
The average age of a congregation's body of elders is going up, up, up, there are more and more "honorary" elders who just retain the title but who really can't do anything practical like give talks or make shepherding calls due to failing health. And there are fewer & fewer MS's to replace them, and fewer and fewer guys who even want to be a MS.
I smell some "new light" coming in the next decade or so. They'll go back to having a congregation "serivice directors" like in the days of Joseph Rutherford.
Lets not forget, Joe Rutherford (gods mouthpeice on earth) taught that the elder arrangemnt was unscriptural and that elders were "haughty" and "lazy". (Penton, Apocalypse Delayed)
I guess a broken clock is right at least twice a day!
first of all, there's a new imaginary picture of jws during the great tribulation:.
then there's a picture of a jw family refusing to listen to "apostate lies" via pre-programed, self imposed information control:.
the description says:.
So they're in lofts now, not the basement?
My question is, where do they go to the toilet? In a bucket?
once upon a time in... hollywood my review.
i rode my bike through 3-digit temperature and watched quentin tarentino’s new film.the title harkens back to sergio leone’s trilogy titles.. i wanted to see it for personal reasons.
the time span covered is the background to much of my life.
Been looking forward to this. Unfortunately it's not on here in the UK until the 14th.

LMAO!!
Use the JW. org logo on advertising and they lose their shit.
But they're ok with hijaking a world famous Japanese computer game.
dear friends.
i didn't post for a while, but i still enjoy the great jwn community.. just wanted to share a "gem" from the november 2019 study watchtower.. paragraph 8 from the article "are you maintaining your large shield of faith?".
satan, “the father of the lie,” uses those under his control to spread lies about jehovah and about our brothers and sisters.
They will try to turn us against one another.
Who was it again that turned my family against another through shunning?
okay i'll admit that what i'm about to ask is a little silly.
this is the kind of stuff that crosses over into tinfoil hat territory, but you can't help but notice it.. did anyone else see gary breaux in this month's broadcast doing that weird "hand diamond" thing over his bible?
he was also wearing a pinky ring.
Cumon guys, do you really think if they were in some secret club they'd leave clues so blatant as pinky rings?

What's the big deal about Masons anyway? I'd join the Masons if it wernt for the fact that I dont have a belief in any higher power or "grand architect".
