How can Babylon the Great be the WORLD of false religion?

by BoogerMan in

(revelation 17:5) “babylon the great, the mother of the prostitutes (plural!

) and of the disgusting things of the earth.”.

btg is spotlighted as being the principal "disgusting thing" which affects christians & christianity, with other lesser "prostitutes" in the background... (revelation 18:4) “get out of her, my people, (christians) if you do not want to share with her in her sins, and if you do not want to receive part of her plagues.".

Ohhh,...some unbalanced Borg member use to say "if it's not the religion, it's Wall Street and the financial system".

Like somebody said , they could change the 'interpretation' any time, no excuses.

Did Jesus Die On a Stake or a Cross?

by Sea Breeze in

dominic enyart exposes watchtower deception regarding their demonization of the cross.

information packed.

interesting take on paganism as well.

I'll bet this new GB in process gonna go back to the cross (remember the crown and the cross, many years ago?), they have support in the Bible where it says something like "take your cross and follow me constantly".

It's not like they gonna be worshipping the cross or with images of the Egyptian cross ansata...

Remember, mainstream is the motto now

Did God know adam and eve would sin?

by gavindlt in

to all those on this forum, i would love to know what your take on this vital question is..

mikeflood

I remember the book of Job, how it was allowed to suffer, and how Lucifer? , was in talking terms with God ...

You guys should remember the war in heavens in the book of Revelation, too. Imagine if the dark side have won..

So... I'm giving up, they are created 'good' and anyway they like the dark side.

One last question, if they are good to indulge in the dark side, because of the 'free will' ...why they aren't allowed to repent?

Well guys, take it to the next level then, why the angels, and of course the Devil, being made perfect, choose wickedness....?

I know, they say because of the their will, but my question is, if you're absolutely perfect and absolutely in the good side, not even ever are you gonna be tempted about going to the dark side.

I've always thought, if you're created perfect (like Adam & Eve), how you could ever possibly choose wickedness?

Next change?

by JW_Rogue in

so, first the turning in time got axed, now beards are okay, what is up next?

women wearing dress slacks to the meeting?

birthdays becoming acceptable?

mikeflood

That's an easy one....as GB helpers...there are gonna be 'Elder and Ministerial helpers', as it is right now they're leaving almost the half of the RF aside.

Women have a lot of energy and commitment, and could give the Borg a most necessary boost. However, don't give them ideas....

spirit directed organization

by enoughisenough in

i was watching a video about wt and money and the "brother" refers to the "spirit directed organization.

" he also says they use donations wisely and modestly.

are the gb so deluded and therefore their followers?

mikeflood

Each religion is "guided by the spirit" , otherwise, how the could say 'we're the truth'....

What does God eat ?

by stan livedeath in

beans ?

( human beans ).

to those of you that believe in god: do you all believe the same thing ?.

mikeflood

Yeah, yeah... the Universe is like, 5 % matter (the thing that we know), 26.8 dark matter and 68.2 something called dark energy...(the two things that we don't know. And remember, the observable Universe is big almost beyond comprehension....

So, what about God eat?. We used to have similar discussions in the Middle Ages...what about this "how many angels dance in the head of a pin?".

Beards are now allowed - New Light

by Listener in

lett has announced in the latest video update that jehovah has dignified the brothers by now letting them to choose for themselves whether they want to have a beard or not -.

https://www.jw.org/en/news/region/global/2023-governing-body-update-8/.

this applies worldwide and to all brothers in any position..

mikeflood

I remember a joke by Groucho Marx : "I don't want to be the member of a club that accepts me ! ".

But, seriously, the legacy from Rutherford is started to being discharged...JW land is gonna be more mainstream with the years. I'll bet next is gonna be that mandatory suit and tie for just going to listen to the meetings.

Theory on the GB "new light" pushing back the final judgment.

by Jofi_Wofo in

i know there are several threads already on this "new light", but i didn't see one that covered this particular angle.. since the gb seem to have an ulterior motive for everything they do, well beyond their publicly stated reasons, i began to wonder why they would be concerned with pushing back the closing of the window of jesus' judgement.

this is especially puzzling because the doctrine of the start of great tribulation being the final cutoff was one that the gb seemed to especially revel in for so long.

they could hang it over everyone's heads as a looming threat.

Ohhh... it's an easy thing... everything about Armageddon is symbolic and the 1,000 reign already started .... the spiritual paradise is the proof...and if you guys want to be sure check one thousand years in the future !!!
