why has the watchtower failed spectacularly to evangelize to the muslims?
considering the recent influx of muslim people in european countries you would think that some attempt from the religion that touts the are preaching the good news of the kingdom in all the inhabited earth would have been made.instead the only meaningful attempt dates back to 1953 ,almost 70 years ago!!!!
book " man's search for god.what do you think?
Islam is a made up religion with no history. It pinged out of nowhere because people with a great knowledge of the Bible (who for some reason had been booted out of the Promised Land) hoodwinked a load of Arabs to be their fighting force to try to get Israel back.
You might wish to consider C T Russell's connections to the Zionist movement and then picture how a bunch of hoodwinked Arabs, remaining hoodwinked could be useful to them.
here in 2022 if anyone says anything against the vaccines even a little bit you are almost apostate.. someone once mentioned all vaccinated sports stars collapsing and someone else said not to speak badly about the gb or by extension jehovah.. the gb can’t get out of this one, it’s gone too far.
it’s now the case that if you speak against the vaccines you are speaking against the gb and by extension jehovah .
I worked in UK NHS IT. I was Prescribing Information Analyst. In part, my role was to gather data, process the figures and flag any GP who appeared to be prescribing like Dr Shipman. If you have not heard of him, look him up.
My role was to help keep the public safe. I, like all other public servants, was directly answerable to the public.
Because I was diligent in my role I was promoted and eventually became an IT Developer. That meant I was collecting and processing far more than just GP prescribing data.
You likely saw lots of graphs on TV as ministers used statistics to say this that and the other was happening. It was people like me who made those kind of graphs.
At one point, some years before this outbreak of hysteria about coughs and snuffles, I discovered I was being passed entirely made up data by one department. I pushed back and challenged, saying I knew those figures were fake. I was raged at in a really, really nasty way. But I stood my ground and the liars EVENTUALLY admitted their figures were made up to my face.
If, knowing the data was false, I had processed it, from a secular point of view, I would have been betraying the trust of the general public. From my Christian perspective, I would have been acting against Almighty God who detests liars.
After I had been cruelly raged at by a member of the NHS on behalf of his lying department, I sought to continue to do my job. But I found that the entire organization had been restructured meaning, the groupings into which my data went had all changed. I had sorted this mess out once. To do it again within a short time-frame was not possible.
I considered I had two options. Throw a sicky due to stress or leave. I left. And that was YEARS before this COVID stuff.
Therefore when I see video like this, I am inclinded to think they are true, even if I do not agree with everything the video makers put out.

BTW - top tip - how to work out when a highly infectious killing disease is about. You will notice in the air the constant sound of ambulance sirens. Did you ever hear constant or near constant ambulance sirens?
Yes I used to process the ambulance figures also.
Diogenesister - no I am not kidding. It was said seriously from the platform. I guess by way of 'encouragement' if we ever found ourselves in prison for the sake of a lying, corrupt, media organisation.
I knew at least one person who been imprisoned by General Franco. He's out now, both of crazy WT land and prison.
RolRod - yup thought so. On 24th 4 RVs, 0 hours. Fast work. It was double what you did the day before.
Do you remember the 'experience' of the bro in jail? He couldn't go on the min so he did it all in his mind!
the org.
was all too willing to emphasize to the government - especially the left that they very obedient to the calls for mask, vaccine, and lockdown mandates.
those that know about the great reset know what i'm talking about.
Their Great Reset has always been just around the corner. It never is but has been present since 1914.
I am guessing that a great big mill stone will arrive for them before anything actually gets reset.
And whether I am right or wrong about the mill stone, here's something to ponder.
(Revelation 17:7-8) . . .And so the angel said to me: “Why is it you wondered? I will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the wild beast that is carrying her and that has the seven heads and the ten horns: 8 The wild beast that you saw was, but is not, and yet is about to ascend out of the abyss, and it is to go off into destruction. And when they see how the wild beast was, but is not, and yet will be present, those who dwell on the earth will wonder admiringly, but their names have not been written upon the scroll of life from the founding of the world.
being born-in and raised as one of jehovah's witnesses i remember a common theme or phrases used by the watchtower in its theory of why things are the way they are -.
jehovah created humans.
jehovah created humans as free moral agents.
I guess determinism then would be when someone gets caught up with love of money, believes Bitcoin is going to the moon and put their savings into it.
Then when the price falls off the edge of a cliff and they lose their money they believe it was all inevitable and think there is no such thing as free will. Whereas there is such a thing as not believing every stupid story you are told and wising up.
I got to ask - how did you do 0 hours on the 13th, place 8 mags and do 2 RVs?
10 hours on the 31st - that was going some.
i was thinking a bit about this the other day.
ct russell, from what i remember about him, kinda seemed like a genuine, nice(ish) guy, although he had a few eccentric but harmless ideas.. during the russell era jws (actually bible students) could still celebrate christmas, worship in other churches if there was no kingdom hall available, and accept blood transfusions.. then after russell died, along came rutherford - a major league a-hole, for sure.. rutherford had plenty of eccentric ideas but at least some of them weren't/aren't harmless.
some have been long forgotten about - jesus depicted without a beard, the plan to rename the names of the week because names such as thursday (thor's day) is pagan, the articles about the 'dangers' of aluminium, etc.. one key contribution of rutherford which does a lot of harm is no blood transfusions, even in life-threatening situations.. another is shunning, something which never occurred under russell, or at least was much milder.. rutherford has a lot to answer for, i reckon ....
Enoughisenough - I could not have checked the teachings more carefully when I had my Bible study. I cannot enter the minds of people who are so corrupt to deceive people in the way WT does. What they do is unimaginable.
All sorts of people fall for con tricks because the confidence trickster aims to catch the person's confidence, not their intelligence. They study you carefully to work out how to fool you. In the end a person's intelligence would be crushed by them.
Also if you go up to those still in and tell them all you know - they probably wont listen to you. Because they don't trust you.
I think those of us who are out and have not had our faith destroyed, are out by the grace of God.

If ultimate justice exists and every person will know, that means at some point every person would have to be alive. Including those who were conceived but died in the womb or died too young to know anything.
