  I wonder how many Jehovah's Witnesses died between 1968 and 1982 (the 14-year Watchtower Organ Transplant Ban)

  Women are NOT allowed in the faithful & discreet slave class!!!

  by bytheirworks in

  2. bible

  if the "faithful & discreet slave" are no longer the 144,000 but only 8 men... isn't this a huge stepback for jw women's rights?.

  Good point...

  There were women in the faithful & Discreet Slave class up until October of last year... Now, they're mere "domestics"

  Housing for the Warwick slaves while the new GB Club Med is being built...

  It's the best location they could find because there are no liquor stores within walking distance (like there is with Brooklyn bethel).

  Mark Sanderson - Why Is the Newest GB Member Suddenly So Prominent?

  by Oubliette in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i've noticed something that is very odd even by wt/gb standards.

  why is mark sanderson suddenly so prominent in all things wt/jw?.

  others have commented on the obvious narcissism of the gb pushing themselves to the fore recently, in particular after their huge doctrinal change at proclaiming themselves and only themselves as the faithful and discreet slave.. this is clearly true as evidenced at the agm, not only throughout the agm, but also in the video that was featured as part of that meeting.

  Why is Mark Sanderson so prominent?

  Because he is from the same bloodline as Jack Barr who was a Scottish Freemason.

  Mark Sanderson was appointed, not by "holy spirit" but by the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry (Southern Jurisdiction USA - Orient of California)

  Heavenly Gates Closed in 1935… Re-opened in 2007

  by Alfred in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  since 1935, the watchtower had been categorically teaching (for over 6 decades) that the heavenly calling of the 144,000 anointed christians had ceased in 1935. this teaching was especially significant to older jws (especially those who spent much of their lives serving the watchtower as pioneers, elders, missionaries, bethelites, etc.

  ) because many of these would eventually turn their attention to the aging governing body members and feel a sense of relief knowing that the end was drawing ever so near.

  in other words, as more governing body members (who were born before 1935) passed away, the closer they would get to their long-awaited reward of surviving armageddon and living on paradise earth where they would finally hug grass-eating lions near a waterfall while marveling at snow-peaked mountains in the distance.

  Are the Heavenly Gates still open or are they saying that partakers are mentally unstable?

  Getting Stuck on the Idea of Closure

  by OnTheWayOut in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i may be suffering twice for having left the jehovah's witnesses and watching my jw wife and other family members stay in.

  once for the changed situation (or loss) and another time for expecting to make progress in getting over it.. the 1969 book on death and dying by elisabeth kubler-ross introduced us to the kubler-ross model , commonly referred to as the " five stages of grief.

  " they are very helpful, but the original idea of the book and the hypothesis was that when a person is faced with the reality of impending death , he or she will experience a series of emotional stages: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance.. it isn't always the case, but those stages are often felt by terminally ill patients.

  Closure won't come if you have close family still in...

  It's like trying to ignore this...

  HELP! Can God SEE the future?? How?? Is this predestination??

  by Bloody Hotdogs! in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  had a very long and frustrating debate last night.. .

  jws like to say that god has the ability to foresee the future, but can chose not to look.

  this, they claim, removes the problem of predestination/preordination.. .

  For the most part, when JWs are unable to respond to critical questions regarding God's will, they're programmed to say:

  "Just wait on Jehovah." which is to say: a clarification will com in due time...

  (and maybe they'll mention Micah 7:7 which has nothing to do with waiting for a "clarification")

  Stand For Pure Worship, what convinces you that the governing body is being used by Jehovah? Thanks.

  Stand For Pure Worship, if you really cherish the so-called faithful and Discreet Slave, you wouldn't be going against their advice about reading apostate material or posting comments...

  "We also refuse to read their literature, watch TV programs that feature them, examine their Web sites, or add our comments to their blogs." Watchtower July 15, 2011 page 16 paragraph 7.

  It's clear that you really DO NOT stand for pure worsip.
