Any suggestions

by Xena73 in

i just woke up and i'm new on here.

If the elders approach you and start asking questions to make you feel awkward, quietly asked them whose 8th year is spoken of at 2 Ki 24:12

(2 Kings 24:12) . . .At length Je‧hoi′a‧chin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon, he with his mother and his servants and his princes and his court officials; and the king of Babylon got to take him in the eighth year of his being king. . .

If they say the 8th year of Nebuchadnezzar, look puzzeled and say "oh you don't agree with the GB then." If they say Jehoiachin's say, "oh you don't agree with Jehovah's Witnesses (Ezekiel and Jeremiah) then."

Am doing a youtube to help make the issue clearer for everyone but basically you can blow them out of the water on their 1914 doctrine using the authority of God and pure science (maths) to trump them. It only takes 7 scriptures and what you find is they REFUSE to look at the scriptures cause it is SOOOO self evident.

Jehovah's Witnesses Started By Christiandom

by mrquik in

a little background first.

my first father- in-law, levi peterson was born in 1889. he personally knew rutherford.

he started the newark, ny congregation.

The masters of spin were clever. The witnesses came before Christianity. Watchtower lifted the name Jehovah's Witnesses from the book of Isaiah. The prophet Daniel was one of Jehovah's Witnesses (in the Biblical, non-Watchtower sense). It was the prophets who told of the coming of the Messiah, Jesus Christ. Christianity is from Israel, from the faithful ones of the House of Jacob who bore witness to the fact that Jehovah (ie the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob whatever pronunciation you prefer) is the true God.

The Watchtower is apostate to Jehovah's Witnesses as defined by the prophet Isaiah.

(Isaiah 43:10-11) . . .YOU are my witnesses,” is the utterance of Jehovah, “even my servant whom I have chosen, in order that YOU may know and have faith in me, and that YOU may understand that I am the same One. Before me there was no God formed, and after me there continued to be none. 11 I—I am Jehovah, and besides me there is no savior. . .

July 2020 Watchtower - A little observation

by Listener in

this is a comment made in the latest study watchtower under the main discussion of humility.

11 jehovah values humility more than ability and unity more than eﬃciency.

therefore, do your best to serve jehovah with humility.

Please be a doormat and if we tell you to empty the sea with collander, do it.

Due to Covid-19 a coming Global Government, the Beast of Revelation 13

by Kosonen in

just recently there have been calls from heavyweight statesmen to set up a new global authority to tackle the covid-19 pandemic and the economic crisis it creates.they are henry kissinger, former uk primeministers gordon brown and tony blair.former prime minister of uk, tony blair is fervently advising governments around the world how to get the corona virus under control and how to restart the economy after the lockdown.

he is running tony blair institute for global changeon its webpage we can learn about his work with this:https://institute.global/tony-blair/mes ... t-covid-19"create one crisis-management centre.

governments should have already repositioned themselves towards crisis management.

Anna Marina

Hmm - G20's new look health care system? From press reports in the 1990s the Blaires were given to unusual beliefs (see link and quote below) which I later found out certain members of my ex-cong held. I was extremely surprised to find a small group of people who believed in energy blockages and some sort of dowsing. In their case they liked to use electricity. They were always ill and remain ill although several have died of cancer and one has dementia.

A nebulous illness was always useful for some. It appeared that they didn't want to be cured without having another up their sleeve.

Guided by his pendulum, Jack would travel the world to locate the necessary remedies to improve his patients’ health. He would collect them from nature around him. He used plants and minerals, and established that the energy of the place in which they are found is critically important for their healing energy.

His affinity with nature and his observations led him to dowse the essential essence needed to put a patient’s problem into relief or remission (he did not use the word “cure”). For every health problem he encountered, he tasked himself to find a natural remedy of the required vibrational frequency to remove the problem.

In later years, his search for healing vibrational energy led him to fossils, numerology, the power of prime numbers, Hebrew text from the Old Testament, Stone Circles, Labyrinths, Vesica Pisces and Sacred Geometry among many other things.

For example, he dowsed that the first words of Hebrew text in the Bible have a strong vibrational energy and if placed under food, it enhances the nutritional energy of that food…

What Covid-19 Has Taught Us About Models

by Simon in

friends

let's talk about predictions.

"woooh, gaze into my crystal ball ...

woooo!!!".

Anna Marina

An elder (one time close friend) did a lot of stuff on water with late poet laureate Ted Hughes. Read an interview ages back where Ted said he was wrong on pursuing water stuff and should have done climate change. Sorry I can't tell you where I read it or look at it again to double check my facts. So if I am misquoting, sorry.

The idea seems to have been to have a global concern that affected everyone - in this case water purity. But it didn't really catch on (no fishing pun intended :))

But before I got thrown out, I went to see this elder friend to see if he could help avert the situation where I blew the whistle very publicly on the GB's apostacy against the inspired words of the prophet Daniel. In particular that the 3rd year of Jehoiakim's rulership was the 3rd year.

This elder told me I could not be certain that Jehoiakim's 3rd year of rulership was actually his 3rd year of Jehoiakim's rulership. I told him I was certain. He called me irrational. I asked him to look at 7 scriptures that proved it. He refused to look at these scriptures with me.

I am guessing he knew I would not take the strong stand I was taking if I wasn't certain of my facts. So he refused to look at the real figures. Instead he insulted me and sought to undermine my confidence. When he did that... well I never expected this man, who I knew as being kind, would ever do such a thing to me. I can't put into words what I felt, all I can say is that I wouldn't want to oppose the words of the true God.

why did jehovah create corona virus?

by stan livedeath in

why did jehovah create the strains of corona virus ?.

is it part of the great tribulation that is closer than ever now ?.

what if lots of his people die from it ?.

Anna Marina

Don't ask me why coronavirus exists. You may as well ask me why there are earthquakes and wars. But... have you thought of this - social distancing make paedophilia very difficult. That's a big plus for some.

Imagine being a little girl at school and being subjected in the playground to things the boys have learnt in class from their teachers. Imagine how you'd feel afterwards. Suicidal maybe? And no one listens and you don't even have the words to explain. Then it comes to light what has happened and you get blamed as the perpetrator and you don't even know what you are doing and in your bewiderment you cry out to God. Next day - all the schools close. You might be one very happy little girl again.

Legal Concerns About "Zoom" Meetings!

by Atlantis in

jw
friends

this whole "zoom" thing has got me wondering whether some of it is legal or not.

if a person has to dress up for a zoom meeting the way the watchtower dictates, doesn't this really go "beyond" cult?.

even the cults who committed mass suicide were able to dress the way they wanted for their meetings.

Anna Marina

I'm hearing of reports that they are being asked, while on Zoom, "are you here voluntarily?" That may be a local thing, just making converstation. But if it is happening generally, it could be significant.

I was thrown out and people with good intentions suggested I sue the Watchtower. But I knew that when you attend a church it is voluntary, or supposed to be. It is more like a club not an employer. You made the decision to go freely, you leave freely. It's like buyer beware, you have to do your own due diligence.

Applauding the NHS (UK)

by blablabluh in

hi, just curious to know if anyone knows of witnesses not applauding the nhs on thursday night.

all i know is for some reason my mum and aunt only went out to listen but didn’t take part in the applause.

not sure if they were just being strange or if there has been instruction not to take part.

Anna Marina

Interesting observation Snugglebunny - I explained to a non Watchtower person what had happened to me (when I was thrown out for sticking to the words of the prophets Jeremiah, Ezekiel and Daniel) and he said, the Watchtower sounds like its acts like the Labour Party.
