  God cannot lie

  by psyco in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the bible does not say that god does not want to lie, but that he cannot lie or it is impossible for god to lie.

  .

  so, if god cannot lie, for what purpose and why did he create creatures (satan, demons, humans) who can lie?.

  someone asked me recently when did i start to have doubts as an elder about what i was teaching from the platform.. i have given it a lot of thought and i can say that it was when i was delivering a public talk about the book of hebrews.

  so i paused and read it again.. i looked at the audience and said to them let's look at the cross-reference for this verse which is hebrews 12:22 and i read that verse.

  after which i remember saying "and this is how the outline puts it.... " and i read from the outline verbatim.. abraham was not looking forward to an earthly kingdom hope.

  Michael= Jesus = ??

  Remember Michael was ONE of the archangels, Gabriel was another- apparently there were more. in Daniel - one of them tried to help Daniel based on Daniels prayer but was held up until Michael , one of the foremost princes , came to help. ( Daniel 10:13)

  In Jude its noted that Michael disputed with the devil over Moses body- If Jesus was the Word, as John 1:1 states, and with Jehovah forever before the founding of the earth, why would he be called Michael, a lesser one, in the heavens?

  
  

  In Revelation, John ascribes the writing to Jesus- a revelation by Jesus Christ. If so, why does he, Jesus, mention Michael and the angels fighting with the demons? Why wouldn't Jesus say "I and my angels fought against the demons?"if they were the same entity?

  LITF -- I so agree with you. Hebrews chapter 11 is full of eye opening information that the org has misinformed the pubs. there is a lot to unpack and heavenly Jerusalem is one of them - ties in with Revelation and those thoughts on the kingdom.

  We have been cut off from asking questions for so long, because it places us in jeopardy of being spiritually sick. Days gone by after meetings and having dinner at someone's home, the bible was always a point of discussion along with the talks. No one was adamant things were wrong - even though they were- just a good discussion. But no more - no answering outside the paragraphs, robots all,. canned answers repeated from paragraphs just read.

  Changed behavior of the governing body on the topic of “vaccinations” in the Covid era

  by Pedro in

  i'm looking for an explanation why the gb has made a radical change on the issue of vaccinations.

  was there pressure from outside?

  were there any financial or other benefits to promoting experimental genetic therapy?.

  Can you verify WTBTS has shares in Pfizer? I always felt they did with the way they were pushing the vac?

  i heard on the meeting about apps called nwpublisher and cartsmart.

  new world publisher (nw publisher) is a free apple ios and google android app created by jehovah’s witnesses for jehovah’s witnesses.

  congregation publishers can install new world publisher on their mobile devices and be more united and connected with their congregation.. cartsmart was built to streamline the way we schedule our public witnessing shifts.

  This NW app may be the brainchild of the brothers who run online and physical store carrying all JW items - in upstate NY.

  I know in this area they are using WhatsApp. I did not download it. Interesting we all have pins - although a friend who previously made donations by cheque got letters back with specific personal number for the donation. I do not give, so did not know about it until I was shown the letter.

  i’ve decided to disassociate from the jw organisation.

  i cannot be part of a community that blatantly rejects the sacrifice of jesus in that demonic memorial ritual.

  amazing what information you find when you start researching.. i’m writing my letter and posting it to the kingdom hall this morning.
