  in all the years i went to meetings, that scripture was never brought up,. when i read my bible now (not the NWT) so many things are plain to see and understandable. I realise now how much the society had thrown chains over our minds. Witnesses say that they read the bible, they dont, they maybe see words but the society's propaganda has conditioned minds so much that they read the bible in the context of the literature and the GB present 'truth' , the tragedy of it is they cant see it.

  Do Jehovah's Witnesses REALLY believe the bible is the most important spiritual food

  in my 50+ years as a jw i have never been aware of them ever having a campaign.

  concentrating on distributing bibles.

  their "preaching" is totally about their own.

  yes they are the boss now and run the house now and are kings of the world BUT if anything goes wrong they blame everyone else, the buck most definately does not stop with them. They have set themselves up and now they want all the jw's money, the coming watchtower study articles make that plain to see, provision for the society first, then provide for jw's families with whats left. scary indeed.

  yes wasblind, Jesus has been eliminated and the GB are in fact deifying themselves. Just wonder what the future holds now for the jw themselves. scary thought.

  it would be good for anybody to have something in print from the society that is worded by them clearly stating that they are themselves the only mediator to show to anybody then show them and preferably get them to read out aloud 1st Timothy 2:5,6. There cant be a scripture more clear as to who the one and only mediator is.

  'JeremIah' book

  by vangogh in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i came across this you tube video.

  most of us are aware of the subject anyway but i thought it could be of interest to anybody talking with a jw about the date of the destruction of jerusalem.

  on page 55 of the 'jeremiah' book, the writers clearly try and associate dr mazar with the 607 date by careful use of the words, its skilfully crafted to make the reader think dr mazar agrees with the 607 date.

If you watch the video you can see that Dr Mazar clearly states that the date of destruction was 586 bce. In the 'Jeremiah' book, the way its written on p55,this a clear example of wt deception, the point is that this deception is aimed at the rank and file witness as that is who the book is mainly written for. Il try post link to make it easier, havnt done that before so if it doesnt work properly im sorry. The video itself is easy to find its The Daily trumpet channel and interview with Dr Eilat Mazar. Its an interesting video to watch anyway, if your interested as I am on the archaeology of Jerusalem and biblical archaeology in general. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvvXy6ELwIE

  What's in it for them? (GB)

  by SyntaxError1974 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if the wbts is just another business?

  then what do the gb get out of all this?.

  tim cook (ceo apple) makes around 378 million a year.. donald trump makes around 60 million a year.. i understand the wbts may have vast property holdings, stocks, bonds, and revenue from donations.. but i can't grasp the incentive for the gb to make this stuff up.

  If any of us were to live in a 'society' where everYthing was provided for us and no one to answer to which one of us would need money?, also, I do honestly believe the GB know exactly what they are doing, they have to be aware of all thats going on to be able to keep control. Now they are the ones that give to everyone else and if they make mistakes they can blame it on the rank and file for 'taking it the wrong way', I honestly believe that they know exactly what they are doing, they also know well the truth of all the things they have been shown to have been involved in, the UN etc. To tell the rank and file not to look for information other than what JW .org churns out, obviously shows in itself that they are totaly aware of the information thats out there. The GB are gods in their own world.

  Does Anyone Remember the "Around The World Assemblies"?

  by titch in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  so, being that it is 2013, i recall that it was 50 years ago, that the "around the world assemblies" were held.

  for those of us who lived in southern california, the first week of september was when we had the assembly, and it was held at the rose bowl in pasadena.

  yep, the rose bowl, with no seats, per se, but just those hard benches as seats.

  I was at Twickenham too, I still remember it, often think how 'the truth' has vastly changed since then, of course 'the light gets brighter' oh yea, was at Wembley too when 1975 was just around the corner ( of course that was our fault for taking it the wrong way) and 'time was so short', oh yea! I just hope people do research into ' The Truth' and do as the Watchtower says in the july 1st 2013 public issue page 7 under heading 'Is Any Religeon Deserving of Trust' at the very end where it says 'Examine their teachings and their record. Then decide for yourself if a religeon exists that you can trust', Well just hope folk do what that watchtower suggests and they do and examine the watchtowers record too and hopefully the light will get brighter for them also.
