  Ask for a Threeway. That would either end up as a lot of fun or get you booted real quick. That is called losing the battle but winning the war.

  Booklet exposing Trinity Brochure

  by Pubsinger in

  there was a booklet that exposed the errors, deceptions and misquotes in the trinity brochure.

  i think it was called something like "why should you believe 'should you believe the trinity'" or something like that lol.

  it went through the society's brochure page by page, quote by quote and gave full sources etc.. does anyone know if it's still available, preferably an online copy?.

  What is with JWs and this obsession with the trinity? Even the ones who have left the borg still think they have one up on people because they don’t believe in it.

  When you look at the plurality of god in the Old Testament, the identity of the Angel of Lord in the old testament, the claims of Jesus Christ and how the old testament quotes are used later applying to both Jesus and his father it is pretty clear that somehow they co-existed as Jehovah, LORD, Yaweh . Oh yeah, the fact the phrase heavenly father Jehovah is never found in the bible either.

  Now if you want to say the bible is complete bullshit , fine you may have an argument but to plainly deny what is written seems kind of silly.

  it's time for me and the mrs. to get the hell outta dodge.

  recently my hall has undergone major management changes and the atmosphere is..less than ideal.

  i'm getting multiple calls a week asking to set up a time to meet, i've politely declined but these guys aren't taking a hint.

  My wife tried that when having trouble with a certain elder that till the congregation finally merged with the one she was hiding in.

  Moved to another city, started to have the same problem and tried the same thing and that congregation merged with the one she was hiding in again.

  The growth of Jehovah peoples is amazing.

  Why does an organization that encourages its members not to vote care when a vote is passed they don't like ?

  Could JWs actually vote on this ?

  Ironic I tell yeah

  so we all know that "crazy" brother or sister.

  every kingdom hall has one.

  they give the best comments (from a hilarious perspective), have experiences with the "demons", but most importantly, they are on about 10 deifferent kinds of medications.

  I make a least one Simpsons reference a day at work. LOL. It pisses my co-workers off.

  You forgot the Rich Texan, McBane, Doctor Hebert and Count Chocula.

  Man, the Simpsons were so good from about 1991 to 2001. I really have no interest in the new ones.

  So

  How does the WTS get rid of demons ? Is there like a special C.O that doubles as exorcist ?

  I imagine the WTS feels kind of bad that freaky stuff only happens to other denominations of false religion, so I assume they are just lying.

  To me there are literally times people make such stupid and blasphemous comments about the magical seven replacing Jesus, it almost seems like there is an evil entity behind it. I keep expecting the WTS reader's head to do a 360 and start puking pea soup sometimes.

  i don't know if i have shared this with everyone, but there seems to be a new theocratic term, at least in my circuit.. the term is "final push.

  " wtf does it mean?

  well, an eldub said that the gb are "all in" with warwick and they might spend all their money on the project.

  The other day me and the wife were watching survivor man on television and she said " pay attention, we might need these skills during the great tribulation " and I replied " no need, I am going to be raptured out of here".

  She looked at me kind of dumbfounded. You mean other religions talk about this kind of stuff too.

  I thought it was kind of funny.

  Given the fact the U.N isn't in the process of banning all religions while the JWs are holding there own, I don't know how the average DUB kind really get excited about this kind of stuff.

  Are Elders experts on the Bible? Are they spirtually qualified men?

  by John Aquila in

  2. beliefs

  how many times have elders read their bible in its entirety?

  these are the leaders that give counsel to married couples, to teenagers, to single girls and single boys on everything from marriage, education, sex, association, dress, and recreation..

  how well do they know their bible?

  I like to believe once you explain to the JWs that the new testament is the story of Jews then the Gentiles, the nation of Israel to the body of Christ ( all believers in Christ ) all JW theology becomes quite silly.

  Heavenly hopers, earthly hopers, slaves classes, changing lights, overlappers .

  It sounds like Star Wars to me.

  Are the elders spiritual men ?? Ha. Ha. Ha. They read the bible like it was a speeding ticket and are looking for a technically get to get off.
