LOL! MissFit it really is a scary looking thing! All those legs and a red square eye. I thought it was a drunk yellow spider! Like I should talk, but it is scary!
a lot of exjws need an answer to "where else to go?
" and some people seem to need to belong to an organization.
doing some research on answers.yahoo.com i noticed that both jws and mormons come in for a lot of criticism for being manipulative cults.
I joined the SDA years ago but walked away for the same reasons. Ellen White is no prophet just made up by a group of men.
Crazy writings EllenWhite Estate is on line.
Also many do not know they believe Jesus was Michael it in their book. Ekks! And they believe Jesus is Jehovah.
On a positive note, they are very nice and do more for their children. Nice group of people.
When I left over disagreement of doctrine they called and wanted me to come back any time! JW never treated me as nice.
surprise, surprise!!.
he said that the 144,000 would sit on thrones as kings and priests, and that they would judge people!
i'm missing something; i don't remember reading any verses which say any of these things.. let me see..............rev.
I sometimes think that Revelation 19 goes with 20. The opposite of The Wt teachings! :-)
After these things I heard [ a ] a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, “Alleluia! Salvation and glory and honor and power belong to the Lord [ b ] our God! 2 For true and righteous are His judgments, because He has judged the great harlot who corrupted the earth with her fornication; and He has avenged on her the blood of His servants shed by her.” 3 Again they said, “Alleluia! Her smoke rises up forever and ever!” 4 And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who sat on the throne, saying, “Amen! Alleluia!” 5 Then a voice came from the throne, saying, “Praise our God, all you His servants and those who fear Him, both [ c ] small and great!”
6 And I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunderings, saying, “Alleluia! For the [ d ] Lord God Omnipotent reigns! 7 Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.” 8 And to her it was granted to be arrayed in fine linen, clean and bright, for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.
9 Then he said to me, “Write: ‘Blessed are those who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!’” And he said to me, “These are the true sayings of God.” 10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, “See that you do notdo that! I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren who have the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”
Revelation 20:4)
4 And I saw thrones, and there were those who sat down on them, and power of judging was given them. Yes, I saw the souls of those executed with the ax for the witness they bore to Jesus and for speaking about God, and those who had worshiped neither the wild beast nor its image and who had not received the mark upon their forehead and upon their hand. And they came to life and ruled as kings with the Christ for a thousand years.
surprise, surprise!!.

He is just wrong! JW take Rev 20:4 "thrones" and claim these are the 144,000! No proof what so ever! Wt claims they follow Jesus Rev 19:4 to the battle dressed in white robes.
No one knows who was given the right to judge." They refused to worship the beast or idol,they refused to let its mark be put on their foreheads." Revelation 19 the multitude could be part of the ones judging after the wedding supper! They were given white robes.
Also the apostles were given rights to judge, but JWs will say that is a lot of people to judge so it is 144,000 whi h incljdes the 12.
JWs say that the New Testament bible 144,000 started during Christ time with the apostles. All of Pauls congregations are small portion of the 144,000! All the way to the end of times! Jehovahs Witnesses. So why would JWs need to make notes how many 144,000 remained? Wt would need to know the portion of 144,000 in New Testament, Pauls congregation. That is how you know it is false and made up because WT keep track of a number but the did not subtract New Testament 144,000. 144,000 -New Testament= JW remaining 144,000. They would not know!
Christendom claims it is the Church,Catholics, only as a member.
Protestant they are the Church! only member!
There is no way of figuring out who gets to sit on the thrones and judge with Jesus! I will stick with the apostles only!
What does the right to judge have anything to do with partaking! Only Jah can pick who is going to sit with Jesus to judge!
Your right it just made up lies from interpretation of WT.
I think the family of Christ sounds better! But I doubt they are given judgement seats. No one knows!
Snare&rackett I do a little crazy JW reply!
False gods do not eat bitter herbs therefore it is a celibration for the true God Jesus!

Now you get to greet everyone for a five minute social time then home you go! Yeah it time to smile real big and do the Memorial dance!
It is over! It is over! It is over!
Garyneal did you smell the wine? barf!
Never liked it!
One more thing! The way Jesus liked his wine I really doubt they stopped at one sip!
Two more things: Why must we keep eating those bitter herbs, and what about passing a bowl to dip my fingers in!
I doubt I will ever walk into another kingdom hall.
christianity began it's formation without the bible.
the bible, as we know it, is a collection of what were very old texts when they were assembled by christian leaders in the late second and third centuries because they were deemed to be inspired by god.. whether they really were inspired by god or not is now open to debate, but should they prove to not be, it should not undermine christianity as an establishment.. discuss......
Phizzy, I keep saying Christians only need the gospel accounts,We are followers of Jesus. But the OT brings purpose and meaning to the NT. The book of Revelations and Paul's writings I can do with out!
