Can the reliability of the source of this webpage be verified? If this is true, it is major news and VERY telling about the financial woes of the great old WTBS!

by ImFreeatlast in

i was just looking through the june 15 study wt and on page 9 at the bottem of paragraph 10 it says.... additional "disgusting things" include acts of pedophilia and other forms of sexual immorality committed by clergymen and tolerated by the church authorities.

is it any wonder that jehovah god will soon rid this earth of false religion?.

Abuse at bethel question...

by mkr32208 in

i was just thinking when i was a witness i knew all about the pedophiles that lurked in halls (i was abused myself) so i knew and it never effected my faith.

i just said 'imperfect men' moved on.

however if i had heard of a sex scandle at bethel that would have been very different.

Most JW's tune out ANYTHING negative about the almighty "organization"!

What J.W teaching did you find the hardest to accept??

by karter in

for me it was the fact that god is allowing all these innocent people to get killed to prove a point ,i mean it was a big bet he had with satan.. i explained it to my wife this way if i had our children killed in the most horriable way just to show they couldn't live without me how does that make me look?.

FDS sole channel of communication between God and mankind.

The preaching work mentioned in Matt 24:14 is being fullfilled by the "marketing campaign" of the JWs.

GB and elders appointed by Holy Spirit.

The books of Isaiah, Ezekiel and minor prophets have "secondary" fullfillments in the 20th century all of which apply to the "annointed"!

Babylon the Great refers to the world's religions. Even more bizzare, EXCLUDING the JWs.

Just a few- Toooooo many to list!

Watchtower teachings

by jacethespace in

a while ago i did a thread about the nephillim and was wondering whether the fallen angels were physical beings.. some here mentioned the watchtower reasoning about how the fallen angels who had children with the women [ in genesis 6] took on human bodies then discarded them when god sent the flood over the earth.. i thought about this and looked at the scriptures and realised that there is no scripture to back the watchtowers reasoning up on " the sons of god" taking fleshly bodies.then discarding them in the flood.this shows how the tower has an "answer for everything" mentally.. is there any other beliefs that the watchtower has gotten us to believe in which cant be backed up by scripture?.

while i was studying i was intrested to know what happened to enoch.in genesis 5:24- and enoch walked with god and he was not for god took him.i was told that god put enoch to sleep to spare him from the wicked around him that would have killed him.although there is no evidence either in the scriptures for this.it just shows how the watchtower interprets things for themselves..

That we need to keep track of the time we spend in "sacred service" and then hand in a written report which is recorded on a written record of our activity, which is then scrutinized by a body of "men" who judge whether or not we are giving our "best" to the organization.

hi folks.

the annual report will be out in a month or 2 and was wondering what you think the current state of affairs for the org will be.. i am not expecting a decrease - but would love to see one.

as is normal each year a few countries will be showing a decline.. i know in a few congs near me that quite a number of pubs are going out less - a gradual slow down.

So true Metatron! NO WAY in h-ll have they had an actual increase of 3% in the US and Britain- Complete nonsense!
