JW.org marks International Women's Day 2019

by neat blue dog in

for the second year in a row, the org has marked international women's day.

this time, it's an article that lists most female bible characters in alphabetical order with a brief summary for each, topped by a picture of them in 'empowering' poses.

rey and captain marvel would be proud lol.. .

Sorry if I'm dumb but why do you think it's linked to the women's day celebration ?

Women's day is the 8th of March and this article is dated "2019-05-06".

Is there something I'm missing ?

I got a question too.

Do I have to use specific tags or something to make my video easier to find ?

I don’t really know how YouTube works in this regard...

The Truth about the bible

by TTWSYF in

it really is common sense, but nobody here seems to recognize or acknowledge this blatant and obvious truth.. the holy bible is the result of the catholic liturgy.

they used these scriptures in their religious practices and confirmed which books would and would not be part of their cannon.

they picked, preserved and promoted these books and gave 'the word of god' to the world.. i know that pisses off some folks, but it is the truth [not the 'truth'tm].

World Powers

by Fred Franztone in

jws have a unique interpretation of the seven kings of revelation.

they of course refer to roman rulers, but the wt believe they represent certain 'world powers'.. the problem with these world powers is how arbitrary they are, not to mention the fact that none of them truly were world powers, in fact none of them even covered the entirety of europe, and the anglo-american world power isn't even a distinct entity.. then there are all of the world powers that are left out for convenience, many of which were far bigger.

the mongolian empire and the ottoman empire were both bigger than half of the chosen world powers, such as medo-persia.. has anyone ever taken this topic up with jws?

Thank you New World Bible Translation Committee for removing the words, "mentally diseased" from 1 Tim. 6:4

by AndersonsInfo in

i want to thank jehovah's witnesses new world bible translation committee for changing the words, "mentally diseased" as found in the 1984 edition of the nwt, to "obsessed with arguments," as found in 1 timothy 6:4 in the 2013 revised nwt.. on february 6, 2012, david splane, the overseer of the watchtower's writing department received an open letter from me which i posted below especially for new posters.

the topic of my letter was in response to the writing department's statement that ..."apostates are mentally diseased" in their july 15, 2011 watchtower.

Ok thanks dubstepped.

Do I understand correctly the fact that it’s a specific law in Australia that permitted to charge the faithful slave class ? Cause the FDS has never been an legal entity, right ?

Or could any professed anointed (even the meaningless ones) be sued in almost any country, putting at risk all the belongings of the Watchtower ?

I couldn’t find a publication stating that they are the faithful slave only when they meet together as a body. Was it said only at the trial or is it printed somewhere ?

Sorry if I missed that...

The whole thing is truly amazing and crazy. Was it known before or was it revealed in the podcast ? Cause I never heard of it before.

Thanks for your hard work Steven and Barbara !!!

Please help me, I’m not sure I properly understand what was in the last JW community podcast (I’m French)...

Am I wrong or did he explained that the doctrinal change about the faithful slave (that it was not all the anointed on earth anymore but only the governing body) was caused by the threat of them losing their financial assets ?

If that’s the case, that’s truly amazing (even tho not surprising) !

I was already laughing at them for figuring out dozens of years late who was the real source of divine direction, but that... it’s a whole new level !

Please confirm or correct me !
