  My Explanation of Why They Got it Wrong About Blood Using Only the NWT

  by cofty in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  10 " any israelite or any alien living among them who eats any bloodi will set my face against that person who eats blood and will cut him off from his people.

  12 therefore i say to the israelites, "none of you may eat blood, nor may an alien living among you eat blood.

  15 'anyone, whether native-born or alien, who eats anything found dead or torn by wild animals must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be ceremonially unclean till evening; then he will be clean.

  The barefaced deception they try to propagate is stunning.
  Compare these two opposing statements from the WT:

  DO WITNESS CHILDREN DIE FROM NOT TAKING BLOOD?

  YES - Awake! 1994 May 22 p.2  Youths Who Put God First 3-15

  In former times thousands of youths died for putting God first. They are still doing it, only today the drama is played out in hospitals and courtrooms, with blood transfusions the issue.

   

  NO - Watchtower 1998 December 1 p.14 Defending Our Faith

  Second, Jehovah's Witnesses have been targets of false accusations-barefaced lies and twisted presentations of their beliefs... The accusation that numerous children of Jehovah's Witnesses die each year as a result of refusing blood transfusions is totally unfounded.

  It is now 2003.... Where is Armageddon?

  by Nosferatu in

  2. friends

  i find it extremely amusing how each year is passing without armageddon.

  "for the year 2000, i visualize a world transformed into a beautiful paradise!

  but i don't think that either the present world or its rulers will live to see that day.. we are living in the last days of the system of things.

  LUHE, now compare this contrasting statement

  *** w99 11/1 p. 6 When Does the Third Millennium Begin? ***
  

  "Nevertheless, some religious fundamentalists have great expectations for the year 2000. They believe that during the next few months, portions of the book of Revelation will have a literal fulfilment. Indeed, they see themselves as sharing personally in that fulfilment."

  Kingdom Consolidation and Sales are coming – Reliable Source

  by thedepressedsoul in

  2. beliefs

  i heard form a reliable source that a kingdom hall consolidation is going to be happening in the us.

  currently they are looking at every kingdom hall to see if they could and should sell it.

  any kingdom hall that has not been updated and is in a bad location (long driveway, not in a visible location etc...) will be sold.

  I can't think of any at my hall who would be willing to travel to another hall if the local one got sold.

  Oh yes, here's another film:

  *** g79 3/22 p. 10 The Kind of Places Discos Are ***

  “Saturday Night Fever” The main character of the movie lives for just one thing—to shine at the disco on Saturday night. The sexual escapades of the disco crowd are featured, including oral sex, which is performed out in the car during interludes to the dancing. The language is of the filthiest kind. Yet all of this is presented as normal—the way of life among those who go to discos.

  Londo111 How many publishers does it take to run a vacuum?

  1. None. They are waiting on Jehovah.

  2. It depends on how many the GB tell them are needed. (Note: This number may change at any time)

  3. If they are elders they will assign two to investigate it.

  There are 80 references to "slave" in the recent WT article *** w13 7/15 p. 20 “Who Really Is the Faithful and Discreet Slave?” ***

  80 times in an hour is more than once per minute for a whole hour.
  And that isn't including all of the congregation answers that parrot the paragraphs.

  It's likely that this word was repeated every 20 seconds for a whole hour. Brainwashing anyone?

  They also came down on music.

  *** g93 2/22 p. 26 Can Music Really Hurt Me? ***

  Take heavy-metal music—a particularly noxious form of hard rock that is usually played at ear-splitting volume. Heavy-metal bands typically sport names like Poison, Skid Row, Guns N’ Roses, and Slayer. Time magazine said: “The band names alone conjure up images of mayhem, torture and death.” The same can be said of the horrifying artwork that adorns the album covers and that often depicts satanic symbols.
