  Isn’t JW’s teaching of “the abomination that causes desolation” wrong?

  by Abraham1 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  what “the abomination that causes desolation” mentioned in mathew 24:15 means could be understood only by close followers of jesus because it was part of his personal discussion with them.

  by stopping to greet those whom they consider as “their enemies” jws are identifying themselves as “pagans,” according to jesus.

  (mathew 5:43-48) thus they cannot correctly understand what the abomination that causes desolation” that would appear as part of signs of “last days.”.

  Since Jesus superior teaching applications are spiritual.

  To equate “North” and “South” in WT terms is a mistake.

  WTs “love” Is Conditional.

  You have given me something to ponder on Abraham1. The Abomination that causes Desolation” could be the elephant in the room, because it causes a great distraction. (That nobody wants to talk about).

  Thinking about your first post.. WT prime treasure, or teaching, is that of “Jehovah’s Universal Sovereignty”. I think that is incorrect and a distraction. He is bigger than that.

  It is really really very simple and boils down to Jesus teaching about how we treat and care for each other.

  Why the King of South (USA) is in the Northern Hemisphere?

  there's been a lot of talk among jws, that this is it with russia (king of the north) pushing and shoving against the (king of the south usa).

  but look at the world map below on the link, and notice that usa is in the northern hemisphere.. meaning the king of the south must be none other than -----------argentina .

  that's so funny that jws still can't figure it out that they are being conned to the max.

  Yomama,

  yes, I notice that particular program has been removed from the jw dot org broadcasts.

  Don’t know why. Here is a vid from someone who does reviews and here is a link to the Review he did of the 2016 August Broadcast.

  COVID Vaccine and JW's

  by FedUpJW in

  while reading some of the news this afternoon i came across an article titled the lies about vaccine efficacy are exposed, so scotland stops publishing data, that opened with this statement:.

  if the truth hurts your narrative, you must censor it.

  but what if your own information harms your own narrative?

  GB 2021 Update #10 - "get vaccinated"

  am the turd comes the closest to just coming right out and telling jws they have to do it.

  he says, 'there's no need to worry, just keep doing what works: wear masks, wash your hands and get vaccinated when possible'.

  the busybodies are going to be even more insufferable now than they have been.

  Watchtower Study on 5th December.

  by Lost in the fog in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the wt study for this week is all about disfellowshipping.

  in an early paragraph it said "think how heartbroken jehovah must have been when members of his own angelic family turned their back on him!".

  however when you think about it, when this happened according to the wt teaching, jehovah still engaged with satan in the heavens (book of job) and had conversations with him about what was going on in the earth.. so why do the wt org practice shunning when jehovah god obviously didn't?.

  You make a good observation. The article only gave one point of view.

  It looked at one aspect. Self centred adherents thrive on this aspect - how it is affecting . ... Me.

  There is no empathy nor Christ like attitude in the “food” dished out here.

  A balanced discussion of this topic of the WT study would include the one who has been stumbled. (In other words, a heretic).

  Heretics don’t get a mention from WT. WT falsely labels heretics as apostates- effectively “cancelling” them.

  Science News article: ‘Case closed’: 99.9% of scientists agree climate emergency caused by humans

  by Disillusioned JW in

  1. social
  2. current

  a news article has the headline of " ‘case closed’: 99.9% of scientists agree climate emergency caused by humans"; see https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/oct/19/case-closed-999-of-scientists-agree-climate-emergency-caused-by-humans .

  the article says in part the following.. 'the scientific consensus that humans are altering the climate has passed 99.9%, according to research that strengthens the case for global action at the cop26 summit in glasgow.. the degree of scientific certainty about the impact of greenhouse gases is now similar to the level of agreement on evolution and plate tectonics, the authors say, based on a survey of nearly 90,000 climate-related studies.

  this means there is practically no doubt among experts that burning fossil fuels, such as oil, gas, coal, peat and trees, is heating the planet and causing more extreme weather.. a previous survey in 2013 showed 97% of studies published between 1991 and 2012 supported the idea that human activities are altering earth’s climate.. this has been updated and expanded by the study by cornell university that shows the tiny minority of sceptical voices has diminished to almost nothing as evidence mounts of the link between fossil-fuel burning and climate disruption.. the latest survey of peer-reviewed literature published from 2012 to november 2020 was conducted in two stages.
