  "here is the Christ"

  by enoughisenough in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was thinking about the scriptures at matt 24:23-26 .

  the time period does appear to be during great tribulation...anyway, it is telling us not to believe it when people are telling us christ is in the wilderness or in his inner rooms.

  it would be false christs and false prophets promoting this.

  Enoughisenough - when I was studying I was detecting anomalies. The sister I was studying with said to me, "when you say things, I think 'no'. Then I go away and think about it and I realize you are right."

  I knew the Bible quite well and the sister who was taking my study was sincere. THEREFORE out of the blue two elders attended my study, one after the other to skew things.

  For whatever reason I was never taught about parousia. I studied during the early 1990s but never heard the word parousia until 2006. The immediate effect was to wake me up big time. What I did not know was whether they taught this stuff with bad intentions or because they themselves were confused but meant well.

  Incidentally in the old NWT (ie not the grey one) every single mention of the word 'presence' cross ref'd to Appendix 5B which 100% contracted WT's parousia doctrine. I pointed this out in a letter I sent to HQ. I actually got a reply. Some years later as you know the RNWT (ie the grey Bible) came out. And lo and behold Appendix 5B had disappeared. So they kept the stupid teaching but removed the sensible information.

  2. scandals

  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!!!!

  BelisemDeBelimakom - that's a very good video on Catholicism and Islam. I did not realise the Free Masons also spoke of the Genii - I remember one young Moslem telling me about the Djinn - it amazed me when I found out these were the genies spoken of in Aladdin.

  2. beliefs

  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 .

  Sarah Kellen - Victim or Vixen?

  by Sea Breeze in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  sarah kellen has been described as jeffery epstein's 'lieutenant' for allegedly sourcing and booking girls for 'massages'.. kellen’s [jehovah's witness] parents said they knew almost nothing about what their daughter’s duties involved because they became estranged from her at around the time she took the job with epstein when she was aged 18 or 19.. the split with her family came after kellen was thrown out of the church for allegedly leading an “immoral” lifestyle:.

  sarah’s parents told the daily mail they love her and would welcome her back as long as she rejoins the church and shows them she’s committed to the faith.. so, is she a victim or a sly fox?.

  Um... What has been going on?

  https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1165636/jeffrey-epstein-conspiracy-us-paedophile-tony-blair-prince-andrew-fbi-investigation

  The contacts also included celebrities such as Simon Le Bon, the late Sir David Frost, supermodel Naomi Campbell
  

  ** VALERIE CAMPBELL ** has admitted that she is a devout Jehovah's Witness. The glamorous mother of supermodel Naomi Campbell has been found wandering the streets of Surrey trying to share her love of the faith with strangers. "I was raised to be a Jehovah's Witness, but I let it slip," she told the Daily Mail. "Now I have found it again, I feel much more at peace with myself and the world around me." Valerie has not yet persuaded her daughter to join her in her mission, however. "I brought up Naomi as a Jehovah's Witness, but she must choose her faith for herself," she goes on. "I do give her literature on the subject though when she asks for it." (December 16 2003, AM)

  Watchtower is a mind control cult which covers over child abuse. Let that sink in.

  Mohammedans can be drawn to spinning words. I suspect some of them like to imagine themselves as charmers. Snake charmers. I remember one elder studying with a Mohammedan and the man kept on studying and studying. The elder said the man (who I think identified as an academic) was drawn by the beauty of the words.

  Watchtower could be Judas-goating to one world religion. All their false teachings are based on Theo Sufism. Sufism, itself is mystic Mohammedanism.

  Theo Sufism - if all religions were eggs, Theo Sufism cracks them all in to one bowl. It is the side-kick to Communism. One world state with one world religion. That religion being the nonsense mutterings of some king-poet (identifying as a master or getting 'radio' messages from masters) making it all up as he/she goes along.

  Check out their logo. 'There is no religion higher than truth'. Now you can imagine that splattered on Watchtower can't you.

  Mohammedans is probably a better term.. It conveys identity faster. Bit like Russellites.

  The problem with using term islam is that when you understand a little of their languages, you get into wierd areas of semantics. It's like calling Watchtower publishers, Jehovah's Witnesses or those opposed to Jesus Christ, Jews. There's a lot to step through with the vocabulary before you can establish semantics.

  With some people it is not even worth doing.

  The Governing Body members wearing expensive and unusual jewellery and at the same time speaking against showy displays!

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNf9woqsoIk

  Beneath the video one commentator called D says this -

  Got curious, the internet say: 1) A ring worn on the pinky is to indicate a man's wealth and status. 2) Once you were officially inducted into the mafia, you got a special pinky ring. 3) In Roman mythology, each finger is associated with a specific God. The pinky is set aside for Mercury, the messenger God. He is also the god of mischief and practical jokes.

  Hi Vidqun - I didn't do stats on Midazolam. But I do remember walking in on a meeting where the concept of a 'good death' was being spoken of. Thereafter, all leaflets of old people had to show them smiling. No room for pity. Just imagine all these happy old people as if going on holiday, not suffering chronic pain or loneliness.

  I also remember being told years and years ago about 'pandemic flu' - nothing like it was showing in the stats but I was told, 'oh it will come one day.' I thought it was a weird thing to say. But hey, look what happened!

  Once people pass a certain age they become about 3 times more expensive to the health services. In UK many health services are free. However if you make it more difficult to define what a health need is (for an elderly person), health needs can be defined as social needs. In this way it is easy to withdraw certain services from elderly ones which they might have expected to receive at one time. You withdraw enough of those services and delay the response time of others, the death rate goes up.

  Also top tip - at the weekends when more junior than senior doctors work in the hospitals, the death rate goes up. Assuming the pattern is the same now, if you are going to need hospital care, try to make sure you visit Monday to Friday.
