Thanks for sharing. Another life totally wasted. How many personal horror stories will follow?

“They told my parents that when the world ends, those part of Jehovah’s Witness will all live in paradise.”
The religion claims it will “bless obedient people with perfect health and everlasting life in an earthly paradise” should they follow their rules.

Perfect health and everlasting life in an earthly paradise? Yes, that sounds great at peoples doors, but why are so many lives ruined on this side of the big A by obsolete policies from that same religion?

Fry watchtower fry!!!

Burn watchtower burn!!!

Geoffrey Jackson, Deuteronomy 18:22

by Spoletta in

not sure if this has been commented on, but while reading a discussion, deuteronomy 18:22 was mentioned.

i looked it up, and was struck by its connection to a remark made by geoffrey jackson during his arc testimony.

the gist of the scripture is that if a prophet declares something is from god and it doesn't come true, he is speaking presumptuously, and should not be feared.

Nothing has changed. Watchtower october 1, 1919 p. 297 literally called Russell "one of God's great reformers and prophets." Regarding Deuteronomium 18:22 we know exactly what when wrong with his 1914 predictions... yes, EVERYTHING! The hollow phrase "gentile times" (without any detailed analysis of what actually was predicted) however is still being used over and over and over again by the Watchtower to give the impression as if much of it is still true prophecy. So...

False prophets? Check!

Liars and deceivers? Check check!

Around 100 billion people have died

by Funchback in

according to some, the earth may have 10 billion people living on it by the end of this century.

there is genuine concern about space and resources.. imagine, then, 100 billion people being resurrected to live on earth.

some jws will argue that not everyone will be resurrected to earth, including 144,000. imagine 50 billion then, assuming that half of the people who ever lived did something so horrific that they aren't deemed worthy to be resurrected.. jws who are lurking and reading this: where are they going to live?

During my bible study I was told that if necessary, Jehovah could always make the earth bigger.

Why I DON'T Fear The Future - A Conversation With My JW Mum

by Divergent in

jw
friends

3 questions i hit my jw mum with:.

first question: do you believe that god is love?

third question: do you think a god of love would choose to destroy me for not doing something i cannot do (be a jw) because i am not convinced rather than convince me beyond doubt?

redpilltwice

Good questions!

You don't want to be convinced

Ahh, classic FOG tactic.

Rule #1: never blame the GB/Borganisation, for they are spirit directed by Jehovah. To blame them is to blame Jehovah.

Rule # 2 Everything outside the Borg is misled and blinded by satan and therefore wrong in its reasoning, no matter the arguments.

Other topics however show that there can be limits to the amount of suppression of a mother's love and natural instinct towards her children. I always find these experiences very encouraging because there's always hope that common sense will lead to TTATT. It's touching to see when nature proves to be stronger than man-made pharisaic rules.

My mom contacted me last night...

by HereIgo in

as i have revealed in other threads my mother and i havent talked in over 2 years.

she has been keeping her distance, therefore staying loyal to jehovah.

she found me on facebook.

Interesting conversation, never give up hope!

All of your questions could be answered if you put Jehovah to the test

It's not about Jehovah, it's about the Borganization's hypocrisy and cultish tactics... mene, mene, tekel, parsin.

a jw family member informed me they are filling out an application to preach the truth in israel.

interested ones in the congregation were asked to start saving now, as the cost of the flights would be their own responsibility.

the time frame for this preaching work is for a couple of weeks in may/june 2017. the applications are to be turned in this sunday.

Yadlachim is an intriguing website, been reading it since a year or so. Don't mess with these guys!

I mean, they manage to free and convert female jews, who have been trapped in Arabian marriages, back to Judaism...let alone to disrupt evangelical activities by Mormons, Evangelicals, JW's... whatever. Does the last picture in below's article look familiar?

J's Witnesses Strike Again in Door-to-Door Campaign

02/17/16

J's Witness missionaries proceed to their next target.

J's Witnesses are conducting an Israel-wide campaign, knocking on doors and asking homeowners to allow them in for a discussion on "the meaning of life."

So far, Yad L'Achim activists have encountered these missionaries in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Rechovot, Bat Yam, Holon, Yehud, Netanya, Yokneam and Teverya Illit, but the list of cities grows as the anti-missionary organization's hotline continues to receive new complaints every day. The callers, Jews from across the religious spectrum, are outraged to have their homes violated by J's Witnesses. [bold mine]

Others weren't home when the missionaries called but were accosted by the spiritually poisonous material left at their doorsteps, signaling the campaign's intense desire to reach as many Jews as possible.

Based on eyewitness reports from the field, the missionaries arrive in teams of three, comprising two foreigners and one Hebrew-speaker. They also frequent shopping centers and other crowded areas, loading up stands with missionary material that they distribute to passersby.

Yad L'Achim, which beefed up its manpower in advance of the campaign, dispatches activists in response to every call that comes in on the hot line. The activists canvass the neighborhood, warning residents to be on the alert for the missionaries. Before long, the missionaries give up and move on, realizing that they've been found out.

This week, Yad L'Achim stepped up its campaign, putting up billboards in cities around the country, distributing flyers and placing advertisements warning residents of the missionaries' efforts. Flyers titled "You've Been Targeted," in Hebrew and Russian, warn residents of the missionary campaign being conducted in their area and call on them not to be lured by the sweet-talking missionaries. They are urged to immediately notify the Yad L'Achim hotline of any approaches.

Yad L'Achim's field coordinator, Harav Binyamin Vulcan, said that activists are heartened to see, once again, the extent to which Jewish hearts pound strong among Israelis of all stripes, and the appreciation they feel toward Yad L'Achim for its efforts to protect Am Yisrael from spiritual enemies.
