hello jwners,.
the jw i chatted with recently directed me to matthew 24 with regards to the witnesses and highlighted matthew 24:14. i asked him what "this gospel" is.
the only answer i got was "i'm not sure what you mean".. .
@ DJW & Phizzy - it's pretty clear that Paul did not think/believe/teach that Jesus was God, or God's equal:
“...and when all things are thus subject to him, [God Almighty] then the Son himself will also be made subordinate to God who made all things subject to him, [Jesus] and thus God will be all in all. (1 Corithians 15:28 - NEB)
How could God Almighty subject/subordinate himself to himself?
why isn't the world's media covering this revelation?.
if i'd lost a job, business, or reputation for refusing to "get jabbed and save other people's lives," i think i'd be demanding to know what "science" enforced some of the draconian laws & punishments on those who declined the "offer.".

i watch a lot of ex-jw videos on youtube and read many of the comments.
recently, i watched a video by an ex-jw whose videos i had never watched before.
i don't remember his handle.. anyway, there was only one comment posted at the time i watched the video.
There is a claim made allegedly by a JW who worked at the new Britain Branch site in Chelmsford, Essex.
The story goes that all the work was ceased temporarily and all but a few "key" personal were sent away from Chelmsford for a few weeks.
When they returned, the preexisting very large foundations of a building had been completed and entrance-ways and services installed into it. A building was then erected on top of what appeared to be a huge underground facility. Who knows????
w13 7/15 p. 20 “who really is the faithful and discreet slave?” revealed it was a bunch of guys in new york, back in 1919.. the apostle paul must have been un-inspired when he wrote this back in the 1st century:.
(1 corinthians 4:1, 2) “a man should regard us [all christians/paul, apollos & peter?
] as attendants of christ and stewards of god’s sacred secrets.
Aww shuck. The "faithful slave" in 1957 declared that every Christian was a faithful steward!!!!!
w57 4/1 p. 221 par. 21 The Christian’s Responsibility Toward Others - The “other sheep” are coming in like flocks of doves. Who is going to help them? There is one answer: We are, under the direction of the King. There is a great work to be done and we have been given the trust. Let us show we are stewards worthy of it. Our actions will speak, telling what we are doing. “Let a man so appraise us as being subordinates of Christ and stewards of sacred secrets of God.....what is looked for in stewards is for a man to be found faithful.”- Cor. 4:1, 2

@ RILEY: You - and many others - contend that the alleged vaccines saved lives.
Putting aside that massive assertion/propaganda, is there a shred of scientific/medical proof that it was the jabs and not people's immune systems which saved them?
Worldwide, countless millions of people who ate chocolate were spared from Covid sickness/death.

for those of you who still respect the bible, which translation/s are you using now?
why?.
The NWT wrongly/falsely attributes God's name (Jehovah) to the meaning of Hebrews 13:15:
w03 5/1 pp. 28-29 - “...the fruit of lips which make public declaration to [God’s] name.” (Hebrews 13:15)
Not one scripture instructs Christians to "make public declaration to God’s name," whereas dozens of scriptures exhort the proclamation/declaration of Jesus' name.
As such, the scripture - in context - should be read thus:
(Hebrews 13:15) "Through him (Jesus) let us always offer to God a sacrifice of praise, that is, the fruit of our lips that make public declaration to his (Jesus') name."
a lot of false teaching darkens our doors today, especially with watchtower teachings, calvinism and lordship salvation.. latest video below explores the verse john 3:16 and shows forth the truths which christ preached to nicodemus.
the jws also spread fear amongst their followers stating that if the leave the org, then jehovah will strike them down at armageddon.
this video covers this same fear.. feel free to watch below..
Further to SBF: For the most part I agree with your assertion.
I completely decry every Christian individual/denomination who preempt Christ's/God's judgment by pronouncing an eternal death sentence on anyone/everyone whose beliefs contradict theirs.
Their "version" of Almighty God and his son implies a mass-murdering of billions of people for being stupid, deceived, scripturally uneducated, not joining their sect of Christianity, etc. etc.
Leave it to the judge, please!!!

@ SBF - Has anyone ever committed the unforgivable sin? Pharisees?
(Matthew 23:15) “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you travel over sea and dry land to make one proselyte, and when he becomes one, you make him a subject for Gehenna twice as much so as yourselves.
