Does the WTBTS organization merit the same devotion and loyalty as God & Christ?

OK, for those who can't access the RNWT -
Deuteronomy 29:10-12 shouts it out, LOUD & CLEAR:
10 “ALL OF YOU are stationed today before Jehovah your God, the heads of your tribes, your
elders, your officers, every man of Israel,
11 your children, your wives, AND YOUR FOREIGN RESIDENT who is in the midst of your camp..
12 You are here IN ORDER TO ENTER INTO THE COVENANT OF JEHOVAH...
No need to go on is there?
Rahab and Ruth (foreigners) were accepted as full members of the nation of Israel.
If they hadn't been, the Messianic lineage would have been corrupted by non-Israelites.
As such, where is the type/anti-type application for alleged "non-anointed" J.W.'s being classed as "foreigners?"

The "faithful slave" teaches JW's that foreigners were not participants of the Law Covenant.
wt 98 2/1 p.19, par. 6 - "Further, other sheep lay hold of the new covenant just as foreigners of old laid hold of the Law covenant. In what way? Not by becoming participants in it but by submitting to the laws associated with it and benefiting from its arrangements."
Deuteronomy 29:10-15 blows the "slave's" lie out of the water.
I won't spoon-feed anyone with the verses - it's easy enough to read what's written in plain language.
So much for WT type/antitype dogma.

Rattigan350 said, "The scriptures instruct no such thing."
Here are one or two scriptures I must have misinterpreted:
(John 1:15) (John bore witness about him, (Jesus)
(John 5:37) And the Father who sent me has himself borne witness about me.
(John 8:18) ...bears witness about myself, and the Father..bears witness about me.”
(John 15:26, 27) ....bear witness about me; and you, in turn, are to bear witness....
(Acts 1:8) ..and you will be witnesses of me (not Jehovah) in Jerusalem,.....and to the most distant part of the earth.”
(Acts 10:39) And we are witnesses of all the things he did.......
(Acts 10:43) To him (Jesus) all the prophets bear witness.... (not Jehovah)
(Acts 22:15) because you are to be a witness for him (Jesus, not Jehovah) to all men......
(2 Timothy 1:8) ....the witness about our Lord.......(not Jehovah)
(Revelation 1:9) ......bearing witness concerning Jesus. (not Jehovah)
(Revelation 12:17) ....have the work of bearing witness concerning Jesus. (not Jehovah)
(Revelation 17:6) ......and with the blood of the witnesses of Jesus. (not Jehovah)
(Revelation 19:10) ....witnessing concerning Jesus...the witness concerning Jesus...” (not Jehovah)
(Revelation 20:4) ...for the witness they gave about Jesus...... (not Jehovah)
I look forward to you sharing one scripture which says Christians were to witness for Jehovah. Just one.

Despite the scriptures instructing Christians to witness for CHRIST, and not for God...
Matthew 10:18; Mark 13:9; Luke 24:48; John 1:15; 5:37; John 8:18; John 15:26, 27;
Acts 1:8; 9:15,16; 10:39; 10:43; 13:31; 22:15; 22:20; 23:11; 26:16; 1 Cor. 1:6; 1 Tim. 2:6, 7; 2 Tim. 1:8; 1 John 5:9; Rev. 1:9; 12:17; 17:6; 19:10; 20:4...
….and telling Christians to call on CHRIST's name for everything and not GOD's name...
Matthew 10:22; 18:20; 19:29; 24:9; Luke 10:17; 21:12; 21:16, 17; John 2:23; 5:27, 28; 14:26; 15:16; Acts 2:38; 3:6; 4:10; 5:40; 5:41; 9:14-16; 10:48; 11:26; 16:18; 19:5; 22:16; 1 Cor. 6:11; 2 Cor. 5:15; Phil. 2:10; Heb. 13:15; Rev. 2:3; 2:13.....
…..the organization's hierarchy and clergy mandarins persist in teaching the lie about whose name JW's have to witness for.
Compounding their false teaching, they pervert Paul's words at Hebrews 13:15 regarding the name which was to PUBLICLY DECLARED: “Through him let us always offer to God a sacrifice of praise, that is, the fruit of our lips that make public declaration to his name.”
Here are just 6 examples of the WTBT's repeated deception -
w14 9/15 p. 11 par. 20 Are You Convinced That You Have the Truth? Why? As dedicated Witnesses of Jehovah, we are convinced that we have the truth....
w14 11/15 p. 15 par. 12 - “Our lips should make public declaration to Jehovah’s holy name.”
w12 1/15 p. 23 par. 10 - “The public declaration of our hope....Paul called this essential Christian activity “a sacrifice of praise, that is, the fruit of lips which make public declaration to [God’s] name.” (WT's insertion & brackets)
w11 3/15 p. 14 par. 9 - “...continue to rely heavily on Jehovah, who will grant you endurance as you “make public declaration to his name.”
w05 7/15 p. 29 par. 14 - Why should we allow a month to pass without witnessing about Jehovah..?
w03 5/1 pp. 28-29 - “a sacrifice of praise, that is, the fruit of lips which make public declaration to [God’s] name.” (WT's insertion & brackets)
….but this Watchtower article really hammers home the “slave's” dogma:
w94 9/15 p.10 Make Public Declaration to Jehovah’s Name
If you are an active JW, take the time to compare what the org says with what all of the above scriptures really tell you, and then consider Paul's confirmatory words:
(Hebrews 4:14) "Therefore, since we have a great HIGH PRIEST who has passed through the heavens, JESUS the Son of God, let us hold on to our public declaration of HIM."
(Romans 10:9) For if you publicly declare with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and exercise faith in your heart that God raised him up from the dead, you will be saved.
1st century Christians publicly declared the name of Jesus Christ – not “Jehovah.”

607 date of Jerusalems destruction
by benny ini am confused about the time scale regarding the year of the destruction of jerusalem.
in the 1st october 2011 watchtower an argument is presented to back up 607 bc but there are so many conflicting arguments that this happened 20 years later according to secular sources.
your thoughts please..

Jesus Christ is described as being in the manner of Melchizedek, (meaning - king of righteousness) namely, as a priest and king.
However, according to JW teachings, when Jesus ascended to heaven he only received 50% of his Melchizedek status, because he had to wait for more than 1800 years (until 1914) before he qualified for the full title.
(Hebrews 3:1) Consequently, holy brothers, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the apostle and high priest whom we acknowledge—Jesus.
(Hebrews 4:14) Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God..
(Hebrews 5:6) “You are a priest forever in the manner of Melchizedek.”

7 times = 7 years
7 years = 7 x 360 = 2520 years
2520 years added to 607 = 1914 (no year zero)
1914 = End of the Gentile times - Seemples.
Except................our 365 day year seems to make a complete nonsense of it all.
Not forgetting the Armageddon predictions of 1914, 1915, 1925, 1975, within the 20th century, and now - very soon, so near, just ahead, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
“Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times, shame on both of us.”
Added: "Fool me all of my life, you've become my god."

Another major historical JW lie!
by Crazyguy2 inremember when we were younger we would read in their books or even see a drama on how jerusalem was surrounded by romans armies in 66 ce then one night they were just gone.
jewish rebels even chased them killing many as they left.
this i guessed fulfilled a prophecy in mathew and then the true followers of jesus would see this a know to flee to the mountains as the unfaithful stayed in jerusalem thinking all was well and the romans were gone for good until 4 years later they returned destroyed the city killing most of the inhabitants including unfaithful christians that didn’t heed the warning.

Perhaps this will help clarify the historical record.
The Roman forces retreated from JERUSALEM in 66 CE but then returned to JUDEA the following year in April 67 CE, destroying towns and people, before finally tackling Jerusalem in 70 CE.
So Christians in JUDEA in 66 CE only had a few short months in which to get out of Judea. Those in Jerusalem would have risked their lives by delaying their escape in 66 CE..
