  Muslim men cant stop looking at women and getting aroused so they force them to wear burkahs.

  Tony cant stop looking at boys pants so he bans tight pants.

  I bet his computer search history would be interesting to see.

  TO ALL BODIES OF ELDERS

  Re: Witnessing to Refugees

  Dear Brothers: In Jesus’ day, innocent people were displaced for reasons beyond their control. (Matt. 2:13-15) The same is true today. As world conditions continue to deteriorate, many people are forced to live as refugees, fleeing to other countries in search of peace and a better life for them selves and their families. (Eccl. 9:11; Matt. 24:6-8; 2 Tim. 3:1) How can your congregation have a share in providing spiritual assistance and comfort to displaced persons?—Deut. 10:17-19. Please analyze your congregation’s territory. Have a significant number of individuals recently moved into your territory as refugees? If so, please immediately provide your circuit over seer with the answers to the following questions: Have refugee camps or centers been set up? Do the refugees have an established community? What is the estimated population of refugees? What languages do they speak? Until you receive further direction from your circuit overseer or the branch office, continue to care for the spiritual needs of the refugees in harmony with the direction provided in the articles “Helping ‘Foreign Residents’ to ‘Serve Jehovah With Rejoicing’” and “Helping the Children of ‘Foreign Residents,’” found in the May 2017 study edition of The Watchtower. Other pertinent information can be found in the Watch Tower Publications Index under “Refugees.” It is important that in imitation of Jehovah, we take an organized approach when provid ing spiritual assistance and comfort to those who are displaced. (1 Cor. 14:33; 2 Cor. 1:3, 4) We are confident of Jehovah’s rich blessing on your efforts to share the good news with refugees who are experiencing firsthand the effects of these critical last days.—2 Tim. 3:1. Please be assured of our warm Christian love and greetings.

  Your brothers,

  The hypocrisy of today's Watchtower

  i don't really need to explain anything really.

  all i can say is that i was gob smacked at the sheer audaciousness of the entire study article.

  i'm still speechless.

  I still feel disgusted when I think about the questions they asked me and how they questioned me to get every minute detail about things. They must have got a kick out of it somehow. I was only 24 at the time so it was highly embarrassing talking about certain things with 3 men In their 60s

  Speaking from experience, my ex-father in law is an elder. And he'd tell the family at the dinner table all what was going on in JC's and who's done what with who. They'd all have a good laugh. So it happens, believe me.

  The worst was when i was on holiday with my ex-wife and her family and two elders families. We sat round a big table and the three elders there all told us of a JC they were on recently. They named the brother, told us all what he did and then said "we knew he was repentant, but we DF'd him anyway" and they all laughed. Wives included.

  They ruined someones life "for a laugh" sick f**ks.

  Just read through it now quickly. Wow. Do they not even see themselves in this? Perhaps the GB know and are having a good laugh.

  One thing that struck me was this pic:

  

  Anyone who's been on the receiving end of a JC will know this IS NOT how it is. I was facing three chairs of men with folded arms. No bibles out. No upset expressions. Just vulchers circling around ready to pounce on my every word.

  Jesus fulfilling old testament prophecies like his legs not being broken

  by Isambard Crater in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  what are everyone's thoughts on this, how his legs weren't broken, he was pierced with a spear and he wore a thorny crown?.

  i'm pimo and very much not wanting to believe, but like the daniel statue prophecies, these ones about jesus stick in my mind and give me "hmmm, maybe" moments..

  It's only in the Bible that you'll find the account of Jesus legs not being broken, or Daniels prophecy regarding the statue. Anyone could easily write that "prophesy" after the event. Outside of the scriptures we have no mention of anyone in Judea or Galillee raising the dead, walking on water or being ressurected.
  

  Here's what history HAS actually been able to verify:

  There was a man called Yeshua (or Yeshua Bar Yosef) who lived at that time who had some followers beleving him to be the messiah. And was killed.

  That's it.

  Yeshua is regarded as simply a Jewish apostate who became somewhat of a philosopher with some followers. There were other so-called messiah claimants at the same time as Yeshua who also had many followers. Some had even more than him. In this case, Yeshua's following stuck and people added tales upon tales to make him sound mystical.

  Cart Witnesses vs Faith Healing Church

  by pale.emperor in

  today in liverpool the cart witnesses were in their usual speck in bold street holding out their wafer thin rags and books that they literally can't even give away.

  but today the city centre was flooded with some sort of black church handing out their leaflets and little invitations to a "special event" this sunday.

  i took a leaflet off them as they handed it to me and they were very smiley and cheerful.

  Today in Liverpool the cart Witnesses were in their usual speck in Bold Street holding out their wafer thin rags and books that they literally can't even give away. But today the city centre was flooded with some sort of black church handing out their leaflets and little invitations to a "special event" this Sunday. I took a leaflet off them as they handed it to me and they were very smiley and cheerful. They wished me a lovely weekend and said "Jesus loves you, you must be born again". Well that spoilt it for me.

  Jesus loves me... but unless I sign up as his slave he'll burn me for all eternity. Sounds like a great father figure doesn't he?

  The tract turned out to be an invitation to a faith healing drive. With testimonials by people who'd been "cured" of high blood pressure, a sore back or a migraine. I noticed there were no testimonies by amputees or burn victims.

  Anyway. They gave special attention to the JWs. A black woman whom I assume is a pastor of some sort due to the purple scarf cloth thing around her neck and down her front approached the cart and (tried) to debate scripture with them. The JWs kept referring her to their website. One brother came over from another cart at the other side of the road with his bible. The woman was asking if he's born again. I didn't hear his answer but the other 3 JWs started packing up the carts and one brought over a reasoning book for the brother.

  I tried to get a bit closer to hear. The woman said "do you imitate Christ?" The brother said yes and pointed out his ministry. The woman asked if she can share a scripture with him. He said no!

  Then he walked off to the others packing up their carts. The woman followed and asked if she can share something Jesus said? He ignored her and handed her a JW.borg business card.

  The Witnesses left. Now, I know they didn't leave because their time was up because they're there every Saturday until at least 3pm and this happened at 11:20.

  Ever known a student of the bible or imitator of Christ to reject someone actually wanting to talk about Jesus and the bible? No, me neither.

  This is the sort of situation I'd pray for when I was a JW. I loved debating scripture because I genuinely believed and (thought) I knew my stuff.

  ive just watched on youtube the b.i.t.e model of cult mind control by steve hassan.

  all 23 steps apply to the wts.

  its awful knowing i was tricked and how subtly it was done without me even knowing.

  Definitely worth buying his book. I got it on kindle format and read it in like 2 days when I first left the cult.

  i once shown it to a hardball JW and he admitted that the methods are all used by the Watchtower society. But he defended it by saying "but Jehovah uses the BITE model. So it can't be bad."

  what big change could bring down the watchtower?

  by stan livedeath in

  what single big change do you think could back fire and bring the cult down ?.

  me: tithing..

  Another date that would fail would be great.

  Tithing - maybe. If they brought in outright blatant mandatory tithing like the Mormons have it'd cause a shake up im sure. Of course they'd dress it up nice and quote from the OT. Stephen Lett already said on JW Broadcasting to "honor Jehovah with your valuable things". So they could be preparing for this already.
  

  Polygamy?

  Dropping the 144,000 number would likely see a surge in people claiming they're anointed.

  Getting rid of the elder arrangement and going back to one co-ordinator would outrage many elders.
