The painting was snapped up for £8200 in the early 1950's by the City of Glasgow council (Scotland) and is on view at the Kelvingrove Museum and Art Gallery in the west end of Glasgow.

have you ever met anybody who’s been crucified?
and no--it wasn’t a religious delusion on my part.

Beautiful!!!!! Thanks P.E.
I'm going to forward this to couple of zealous J.W.'s who both have degrees and whose daughter is now in higher education!
The org condemns H.E. out of one side of their mouth, but begs for minions with degrees to help build up their real estate empire with the other side.
Can 8 million really not see the duplicity of their "faithful slave?"

Pale Emperor highlighted another corrupt and evil teaching of the ungodly W.T.B.T.S./CCoJW in this topic:
https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/6204697381699584/my-reverse-shunning-letter-my-mother
He cited this reference from the "Shepherd the Flock of God" which effectively tells J.W.'s that "God's" [the org's] wonderful disfellowshipping restrictions only apply to those who do not live in the same home as their "loyal" family members. Virtually all family contact is only forbidden by God when a d/f'd individual lives in a different building!
Page 116, par. 6. "If members of the congregation are known to have undue association with disfellowshipped or disassociated relatives who are not in the household, elders should counsel and reason with those members of the congregation from the Scriptures. Review with them information from the "God's Love book, pages 207-208; The Watchtower of April 15 1988, pages 26-30; or the article "Display Christian Loyalty When a Relative Is Disfellowshipped” in the August 2002 Our Kingdom Ministry. If it is clear that a Christian is violating the spirit of the disfellowshipping decree in this regard and does not respond to counsel, it may be that he would not qualify for congregation privileges, which require one to be exemplary. He would not be dealt with judicially unless there is persistent spiritual association or he openly criticizes the disfellowshipping decision."
This "demon inspired" teaching hasn't dawned on very many J.W.'s yet. It's only forum topics like this which can encourage them to take a step back and question things for themselves.

Ask some J.W.'s how long they've been "in the truth."
For all those who say they have been J.W.'s more than 5 years, firmly remind them that what was "truth" then is no longer "truth" now. The "body of truth" they had to study & accept in order to qualify for their dedication & baptism, was actually gangrenous at that time (and prior!) with lies/inaccuracies/conjecture, and had to be substituted with reversed truths - not enlightened ones.
Or simply ask them, "Who or what told you that God did not choose the Mormon Quorum of 12 Prophets, the Roman Catholic Church's Pope, or the Archbishop of Canterbury as his agent/s, but instead, opted for the WTBTS of Pennsylvania?"
Scriptural proof would be a good place to start!

Weekly Scripture Twist - aka the Watchtower Study
by doubtfull1799 in“more than material assistance, refugees need spiritual and emotional support.
(matt.
4:4) elders can help by obtaining literature in the language of the refugees and by helping them contact brothers who speak their language.

Yes, the good Samaritan simply took care of the injured man's spiritual needs, because he could count the time on his monthly report. -

Welcome RTN. Just take things nice and slow and be careful not to let those around you see that you are awakening. We all know how they will react and what the eventual outcome will be, if you do.
You can be encouraged by researching on this site and learning from other contributors. Wish you well.

Stonewalling and the Governing Body
by UnshackleTheChains inwhy do the gb stonewall individuals with legitimate questions.
for example, they refuse to speak to investagative journalists like trey bundy, unless they happen to get caught somewhere walking about in the street by chance.. i remember the panorama documentary 'suffer the little children' where the presenter tried to arrange an interview with one of the gb.
i can't remember if the gb either refused or simply didn't reply.

Welcome AMdeT - It's good that you have "independent thinking" and decided to actually question what the WTBTS's rulers declare is absolute truth - until they change it.

Time for a new type/anti-type, G.B? 2033 is the new 1975!
by The Fall Guy ina well known scripture says, "however, do not let this escape your notice, beloved ones, that one day is with jehovah as a thousand years......." (2 peter 3:8) .
using this divine calculation of time, let's apply it to a prophetic type/anti-type scenario:.
matthew 16:21 says, ".....the christ would suffer and rise from among the dead on the third day...", while john 21:1 reveals that it was at the very beginning of that third day - "on the first day of the week, mary magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and she saw that the stone had already been taken away from the tomb.

@ Rub a Dub - sorry if it looked to be some kind of logic to you. It wasn't intended to be.

:) Just demonstrating how anyone (the org!) can snatch out some of scriptures and get the "obedient" to swallow it down.
