Who is Gog of Magog? - Watchtower May 2015

by jwleaks in

here we go again... let's study... news report... comment.... who is gog of magog mentioned in the book of ezekiel?.

for a number of years, our publications have explained that gog of magog is the name given to satan the devil after his ouster from heaven.

this explanation was based on the fact that the book of revelation identifies satan the devil as the leader of the worldwide attack on gods people.

So

The Big A and the tribulation time isn't coming till all the Jehovah Witnesses are living in there own land ??

I am reading this new JW leaks article about the new understand of Mog and Magog and I am not really sure what to say. Somehow all the witness will live in safety in a land called " Israel " or " Israel " will be the name of the organization or something like that.

Then they will be attacked by a vast army from Central Asia, the middle east and North Africa ?? Then Jehovah god will kill everyone ??

So they believe all the witnesses in the world will move to the middle east then get attacked ???

The delluted sense of self importance of the WTS is starting to border on the ridiculous. I think if a person turns on the TV it is plain to see what people are really under threat in the region. First Syria, then Iraq and now maybe Libya. I am of the belief that after the book of acts gods people are his church and " Israel " or the jewish people are something separate but still part of his plan. ( But that is another argument for another day ).

Anywho, Does anyone find it was silly as I ??

NAILING DOWN the fraud of John 1:1 by demonstration

by TerryWalstrom in

call me crazy, but i love to watch seminary classes when sharp teachers are in charge of the instruction.. in the following video, the teacher really nails jehovah's witnesses on john 1:1 with utter simplicity.. begin at 1 hour and 20 minutes in.. i've never seen or heard of this before.. .

I think when you read the book of John it becomes pretty clear what the intent of the author is.

Now you read the old testament and see the plurality of god and how people can’t see the face of god and live , yet people have seen “ the angel of the lord “ who is identified as god and being with god. “ No one has seen the father, only the begotten son “.

Somehow Jesus and his father co-existed as Jehovah of the old testament.

First off, I am not really sure where in the bible it says that modern day Jehovah witnesses are actually the Jews or Israel of the Old Testament. The concept of what is Israel and what is the church in the new testament is just a concept that is lost to the average dub.

I am not really sure how a coalition of nations is to is suppose just corner a very small portion of some 235 countries.

The more I read the whole Mog and Magog thing it is more likely the modern day of Israel being cornered by their muslin neighbours with Russian help.

Although I do find this kind of stuff very interesting, It is very important that if you take an interest in the bible that your entire ministry or source of study isn’t just Revelations, Daniel and Ezekiel. In the end it doesn’t matter what you believe or if you believe you have some secret bible knowledge if you are just a moral bankrupt fraud shunning your family.

Embrace Judeo-Christian culture and values! Is this politician serious?

embrace judeo-christian culture and values!

is this politician serious?.

Why come every time someone leaves the WTS they become some Michael Moore, Richard Dawkins quoting pussy liberal.

I think Judaeo Christian values make us better.

The United States isn’t the moral equal of Somalia.

I don’t think what happened in the middle ages matters anymore.

Communism and Islam suck. Secular humanism will not be the moral compass that Christianity is in the future.

Why a Priest left his Church (AWAKE! FEBRUARY 2015)

by opusdei1972 in

these are my coments on some answers in the interview:.

why did you start doubting the church?three things troubled me.

the church was involved in politics.

Clambake

I find it highly unlikely that a catholic priest with proper seminary training would find the Jehovah Witnesses very convincing with their copy and paste propaganda sessions. Actually I think most people with even a basic understanding of the scriptures can show the average Witness that their theology has more holes in it than a block of swiss cheese.

I think Witness have more doubts about their faith talking to a real Christian than vise versa.

p.s- Please save the atheist/agnostic comments, Richard Dawkins, Pagan Christ, sun god crap. I find you just as annoying as the most uber witnesses.

I can't participate with a game because... JW

by Sir cid fatos in

hey guys.

i, as a muslim, play with two other muslim play together soccer with jw friends (we play against other jw's).

really nice guys!

Clambake

Did you ever here that story about the Saudi cleric who issued that fatwa saying that Snowmen are Islamic ? Well, JW leaders think skinny jeans are a conspiracy to make everyone gay. This is the level of stupidity you are dealing with.

JW are literally the ISIS of Christianity. Of course without the violence, well physical violence. They are really good at mental violence. Just because you are conservative in your values, doesn’t mean they think any more of you.

I wouldn’t take it personally.

It is because they are scared you might recruit their children to fight for ISIS. ( Just kiddening )

JWs are pompous assholes who believe everyone but themselves are terrible unclean people. I hate the hypocrisy of knocking on peoples doors trying to save them while saying just horrible stuff about them behind their backs.

Without starting another , how old were you when you had to start saying “ My parents won’t let me play with you “.

Propaganda vs Bible study

by Clambake in

is it just me or is the wts increasingly just becoming more about watchtower propaganda.

every week it seems to be about killing your children over blood transfusions or worshipping the magical men in brooklyn or the loving provision of shunning or the magical power of the elders or some brother in far off land who is in jail because he cant stop handling out magazines he doesnt understand to people who dont want them.

try and get a jw to explain the gospels or the book of the romans and what was significant about the book of acts...........................no clue.

Clambake

So Basically we just have

Blood transfusions and dying for god
The dangers of marrying and UBM.
The dangers of higher education
Brothers and Sisters in jail.
The magical power of the Slave in Brooklyn
Make sure you kiss the elders asses because they have special powers.
That ridiculous and dishonest 1914 calculation.
Be good cause we are all working our way into God kingdom.
Bad mouthing other Christian dominations
Book of revelations, and how all the dogma is tied together. 1 plus 1 = 5, and cat really means dog expect every third thurday blah blah blah.

So pretty much any given Sunday, that is all its about now. Of course hating on gays and how Jehovah killed people in the old testament so you can be assured all the worldly people are going to get it at the big A.

Have I missed anything ??

Mind you I don’t actually attend anymore. I just have to listen to those JW.org recording my wife plays before she goes to her meetings. I have never once ever seen her read the bible.

Do you believe the Watchtower will soon just get rid of the bible ?
