It's just another tentacle [subsidiary company] of the tax-free WTBTS Inc. business empire. (IMO)

A modern-day parable for JW's to meditate upon.

by BoogerMan in

12 people are selected for jury service in a life & death case.

when the prosecutor finishes his opening statement, he turns to the jury and says -.

"all the members of the jury will now be provided with ear-plugs and blindfolds.

12 people are selected for jury service in a life & death case. When the prosecutor finishes his opening statement, he turns to the jury and says -

"All the members of the jury will now be provided with ear-plugs and blindfolds. The opposing legal team will attempt to discredit the prosecution's case by presenting very different arguments to you, and in our considered opinion, the information they offer will be based on lies. The prosecution believes that none of you will be able to recognise such lies, thereby causing you to reach a wrong verdict. We hereby instruct you to cover your eyes and ears in order to reach a united and honest-hearted verdict."

Chelmsford Dedication

by Teddnzo in

zoe has nephew in the new bethel and we have been there to visit him.

even had a meal in the new dinning room and had a tour.. it was a bit underwhelming and the display of old bibles open to pages showing jehovah’s name is supposed to prove everything they say is spot on!.

everyone is talking about the upcoming dedication where members of the gb are flying over.

Do the Guardians Of Doctrine (G.O.D.) insist on JW buildings being un-dedicated when they're sold off? 🤔

Can any JW answer "Yes" to this VERY simple question?:

by BoogerMan in

"jesus related 30 - 50 parables/similes.

can you name just one which was to be understood as a prophecy?

utterly amaze them by showing that there is one - allegedly!.

ka chap. 17 pp. 342-343 pars. 24-26 - "In this PARABLE the “slave” was not given silver “talents” with which to do business....No sooner did the spiritual “food” become available “at the proper time” on the festival day of Pentecost of 33 C.E., than the appointed “slave” class proved itself “faithful and discreet” by passing out the “food” under the inspiration of God’s outpoured spirit.... At this “proper time” it was that the “faithful and discreet slave” class fed them...26 Less than three and a half years later the feeding efforts of the “faithful and discreet slave” class were extended to other prospective “domestics.”"

I'm certain they will be delighted to learn of this wonderful piece of Bible trivia.

Trinity Statements in the Dead Sea Scrolls

by Sea Breeze in

dr. ken johnson has identified several statements in the dead sea scrolls that predict that god would visit the earth as a man... as the messiah.

@ Seabreeze - We can't acknowledge that "scripture says that one day a man named God would be born," because it isn't saying that.

Isaiah 9:6 -calls Jesus a "mighty god," not Almighty God."

god, god-like one, mighty one

mighty men, men of rank, mighty heroes
angels

https://www.blueletterbible.org/lexicon/h410/kjv/wlc/0-1/

(John 10:34, 35) ‘I said: “You are gods”’? If he called ‘gods’ those against whom the word of God came—and yet the scripture cannot be nullified..."

(1 Corinthians 8:5, 6) For even though there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, just as there are many “gods” and many “lords,” there is actually to us one God,

Also, if Jesus was GOD ALMIGHTY, why is he only described in Isaiah 9:6 as being the "prince of peace?" Shouldn't he be called the "king of peace?"

Ukraine v England football match

by BoogerMan in

"england's winning run in their euro 2024 qualifying campaign came to a halt as they were held to a draw by ukraine in wroclaw.

ukraine were backed by 40,000 of their own fans in the tarczynski arena, giving the game the fervent feel of a home fixture as they are unable to play in their own country because of the war with russia.

I'd love to hear the thoughts of all the foreign fighters who have travelled to "help" Ukraine.

I know what I'd be thinking.

Is the conflict with Russia ongoing? If it is, it's good that so many were given time off to watch a game.

by Fisherman in

The Stock Market - the biggest gambling casino on planet earth!

I'll never forget the look of horror on a zealous pioneer sister's face when I innocently made a comment regarding "the org probably lost a lot of money in the 2008 stock market crash."

She immediately denied the org invested in the stock market, and turned to her husband for confirmation. He did - he confirmed what I'd said was true. The poor woman's face was a picture! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
