JW child abuse (UK only)

by IT Support2 in

a friend who's not posted here before has asked me to post this for him..

dear friends,.

i’m working on a project that, i'm sorry, but i can’t yet make public - as i don't want to give wt advance warning - but it will be big news at some time in the future..

The Fall Guy

The Charities Commission asked the same thing. Maybe Charlie should share his big news with them first.

i find the approach, the reasoning, the dialectic rather fascinating.https://www.jpost.com/opinion/op-ed-contributors/the-exodus-does-archaeology-have-a-say-348464a religion, basically, wrestles with science____did slaves build the pyramids?http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/8451538.stm.

____the only reason i bring this up is because i have dear close evangelical friends who are--how shall i say it---.

rather opinionated beyond their pay grade :).

"How could all that have been manufactured and assembled in the arid Sinai wilderness?"

It's interesting that Israel still claims "ownership" of the Biblical site of Sinai and its mount, when the Bible account of the exodus (which they admit as being the only account) clearly stated that Sinai was in Arabia. (Exodus 3:1,12; Galatians 4:24,25) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midian

Scriptural Understanding

by ZindagiNaMilegiDobaara in

can all explain what you understand from this verse/how it does or does not connect with the ministry that jdubs do?.

"let us hold fast the public declaration" - hebrews 10:23a nwt.

means "go door to door".

The Fall Guy

"Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise." (NLT)

Essentialiy, having faith in the teachings about Christ as being the promised Messiah.

Introducing myself

by Leopold theseconed in

i have been introduced to this site by my new friends that are helping me navigate through the reality of waking up and finding out that i have been lied to my whole life.

i grew up in the truth and have given over thirty years to this organization and the few years i wasn’t there my mind was certainly trapped.

the more i think about it i am really not that surprised there was a lot along the way that should have woken me up but it took till recently.

Welcome to the forum Leopold. Keep your fade strong by engaging and sharing here.

by ZindagiNaMilegiDobaara in

just got the heads up from montreal that 16 congregations will cease to exist from 1 april 2019. also 3 kh are no longer going to be used anymore.

this was a major announcement for many and upsetting.

The 2035 Revised, Revised, New World Translation:

(Matthew 24:14) And this good news of the Kingdom will be muted at trolleys in all the inhabited earth for a non-witness to all the nations, and then the end of all Kingdoms Halls will come.

Halls closing

by iknowthetruth in

jw
friends

in my city philadelphia they closed many kingdom halls.

my hall was desolved and most of the publishers were added to a congregation that only had 50 publishers.

.

Long may it continue. The org's selling of KH's can only awaken even more JW's to the "great increase" myth.

"Romans" added to NWT Study Bible, and one omission.

by Wonderment in

rom.

14:1 says: "welcome the man having weaknesses in his faith, but do not pass judgment on differing opinions.

" (italics added.).

The Fall Guy

The bottom line is this, the org's self-proclaimed "king/priests" in Warwick dictate what JW's think - not how to think.

When The Truth - is Not -The Truth

by Esau in

is 607bc being a made up, “plug in” date the only thing that invalidates 1914 from being christ’s time of kingly rein?.

i mean, screw the math & bs formulas.

can 1914 simply work as a starting date for “the last days” simply by the events that occurred??

The Fall Guy

Welcome Esau.

Apart from the scriptures showing that Christ got his kingship when he returned to heaven in 33 CE, the 2520 years from 607 BCE to 1914 CE is calculated using 360 days for each year.

Where did 2520 x 5 days go?

Active JW's - Does None of This Bother You?

by The Fall Guy in

thanks to atlantis and his sources, we are able to examine material from the alleged "faithful slave" which is intended only for the eyes of the shepherds wolves in the congregation.. information needed for visit of circuit overseer .

all congregation accounts records covering the period since the last visit, which would include any bankbook being used and the records for any additional accounts being kept by the congregation.

(do you have excess money which should have been given to us?).

The Fall Guy

@ Toby - I was a "true" and zealous JW until recent years, but I started coming here when I began to realise that Watchtower truths and Bible truths were not the same thing - and crucially - I wasn't allowed to discuss such things with fellow JW's.

I hope and believe that other JW's who likewise seek answers to questions they dare not ask in their KH, will come to sites like this and ask for answers to their questions.
