  We are not prophets, we do not prophesy -Watchtower

  “We are not prophets”
  Many terms in the English language has interchangeable equivalents and are therefore ripe for semantic juggling tricks! Consider this technique:

  • Outright denial of the term.
  • Cite Bible as authority, shifting the blame and responsibility; implying reader lacks faith in the Bible and not us.
  • Invoke God, and make indistinguishable connection with our organization, implying equal authority.
  • Outright admission of the term; obfuscation by using both terms interchangeably.

  For example: “We do not make predictions” (We simply forecast)
  We do not claim to predict the future. Whilst we keep watch on world events as these fulfil Bible predictions, we will only forecast what such clear Bible prophecies predict. God’s predictions will never fail, and we can have the utmost confidence of the forecasts made by his Organization. Never would we want to reject God’s timely predictions, as forecasted through His Organization.

  And as can be seen in the Oxford dictionary, the above paragraph is duplicitous deception.

  PREDCITION: A thing predicted; a forecast (https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/prediction)

  FORECAST: A calculation or estimate of future events (https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/forecast)
  

  The same above technique can be (and sadly frequently is) used with the term "prophet" and terms such as "warnings", "light", "God's organization" and so on.

  I sent a link to this story to a PIMI Jdub. Their INSTANT response (literally a few seconds) was "well, some Bros must not have followed direction". Er, what?! The whole reason for the police raid is that the branch WAS following the direction - the direction to NOT comply with "the superior authorities" who Christian are supposed to comply with (Ro.13). This told me 2 things. (1) The instant response and irrelevant contradictory reply was a "knee jerk" reaction, a programmed response to "defend Jehovah's Borganization", and (2) like a hallucinogenic volunteer in a hypnotic trance at the command of a stage illusionist, JDubs will BELIEVE that the onion in their mouth is an apple because the illusionist hypnotist said so. I honestly fear for my friend's who are still under Watchtower's command. So sad...

  What about amputees? Are they allowed to do good with "this one hand one mine"? Still, it actually better than their "just 'round the corner" song!

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i think there will be a change in the 144000 belief.

  too many witnesses think they have a heavenly hope.

  maybe 1914 will be discarded too.. what is your watchtower prediction?

  In the bunker

  by Lost in the fog in

  imagine that you are in the middle of the (jws version) great tribulation.

  food and basic supplies are scarce, the secret and not-so-secret police are actively searching for you and your family.

  you have to make it to bro faithful's secret bunker to hunker down with the rest of the congregation.

  In my imagination I picture a bunker with conjoined twins ("Siamese twins") - 1 twin is PIMI and the other is (reluctantly) PIMO. The PIMO twin would have a captive audience to be forced to hear TTATT. "You wanna what? Disfellowship me? In a single room, where you're not even allowed to eat a meal in my presence? Wait! Go ahead - I got 7 days to appeal, and that should be plenty of time to share my offline saved pages from JW facts.com"

  As The Watchtower Corporation Faces One Crisis After Another, What Will The Governing Body Members Do?

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i foresee great a very tumultuous road ahead for our dearly beloved governing body, or god(guardians of doctrine).

  they need a much more flexible approach to these problems, instead of being narrow mindedly ridged, which seems to be almost impossible for these hyper brain washed fools for corporate jehovah.. looks like am#3 will be the most inflexible since he and corporate jehovah seems to know what each other is thinking and feeling, iow am#3 really thinks he can read jehovah mind that why we affectionately call him tight pants tony, he's probably a closet gay that gets real excited by nice looking brothers in tight pants, and perhaps a camel toe or two has caught his gaze(must keep those things hidden).

  i don't see him ever jumping ship he looks like he will ride the watchtower vessel to the bottom of the ocean.. will some future events lead to a big deflection in governing body loyalties?

  There is a CLASSIC book like this from C. 1989. The author still makes a steady flow of money from it: https://www.amazon.com/Unpleasant-Ways-Die-Elan-Fleisher/dp/0312032692

  (Yours would be AMAZING if you can find an illustrator. Seriously.)
