  New light on more parables

  by Deltawave in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  well after a full watchtower study last week about how we should not read to much into bible account as types and antitypes, we had a whole study article on what the 10 wise virgins now means.

  interesting though is the fact that only in 2007/8 they taught that the discreet virgins were the annointed ones who waited for christ's return in 1914 and the foolish ones were the ones who fell away in 1914 because the end didn't come.

  now though, we have new light!

  What those signs should have really said is "THIS religion is a snare and a racket!!!"

  it was suggested that i do a post of introducing myself rather than just starting to do posting.

  i am one of those viet nam war felons who had to refuse community service in lieu of military induction per direct instructions of wbts.

  my mother was from a old time jw family in the calif. bay area the "garigs".

  Paradise is going to suck!

  by WasOnceBlind in

  2. beliefs

  once you really start thinking about it, the whole paradise idea is kind of depressing.

  i remember growing up as kids my sister was the first to tell my parents (admittedly very courageously) that she wasn't sure she wanted to live in paradise, it sounded boring living forever.

  i thought she was dumb for thinking that, i mean playing with lions!!!!

  Actually the witness interpretation of 'paradise' sounds a lot like communism. No free speech and being told where to live and what to do, all for the greater good, no doubt. So glad it's not really going to happen!

  'When the organization speaks, it's jehovah speaking to us' is absolute blasphemy.

  This is calling God either a deceptive liar, or a confused bumbling idiot who blathers false prophesy and bizarre speculation. No, that's THEMSELVES. I am especially repulsed by this comment. Stepping away from the org for several years now, it is shocking to hear any organization say this, especially when it is one so mistaken, so many times, that changes so often, whose 'Truth' changes like the weather.

  Injusticesystem I just realized what your avatar is! Wow I haven't thought about that picture in a while. What the hell were they thinking to put that picture in a CHILDREN'S BOOK. I remember at the meeting (cuz that was the only 'acceptable' picture book to bring), my little kids looking at the babies about to drown, staring at them. I would try to turn the page and distract them.

  Yep, the WTBTS, proudly giving kids nightmares for over 100 years.

  I can't believe they're even making paradise downright unappealing now. Follow all these rules so you can make it to paradise and.....follow more rules. Yay! Yay you!!

  Yeah. Even if they are told 'you can't change your mind about this ever, ok?' They would think, 'that's ok! We go out to tacos after the Sunday meeting, I would never want to stop that!' Or 'why would I ever not want to live in the paradise?? Of course I won't change my mind!' Or 'I'm going to be best friends with Lauren FOREVER and we will always be together!!'

  Why I remain one of Jehovah's Witnesses

  by Brother Jeramy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  allow me to begin with a clarification: when i say i am one of jehovah's witnesses, i don't mean that i am an advocate of the watchtower society or a devotee of some of its more controversial false teachings.

  i mean that i am a christian, a disciple of jesus christ dedicated to jehovah god, and who remains in union with my brothers and sisters who make up the family of faith that globally refers to itself as jehovah's witnesses.

  some totally understand the distinction between the family of brothers and sisters and the corporate organization known as the watchtower society (wts).

  I quite like my nelson's new King James study version. It's not portable tho, for that I use the Holman Christian standard bible. As a plus, the HCSB has Yahweh hundreds of times in the old test. But for study, I love the former.
