  hi everyone i’m not pimi or pimo i’m pima.. i don’t think the gb have everything right but i’m sitting on the fence that maybe they do some things.. if the great trib starts i will jump that side of the fence.. this is a definite little sneaky advantage dodging but even by their own doctrine last min some could come in.. i suspect many are like me.. i spent years in bethel and am very disappointed and disillusioned by it all.. but at the end of the day i love the bible and think it is the word of god and i don’t see any other religion that comes as close to what jesus describes his true followers or who are fulfilling mat 24:14..

  These are just some of the Anglican groups who specifically evangelise worldwide. Catholics , Baptists and others preach the GOSPEL OF CHRIST worldwide . I am a British Anglican but am happy for any group to preach the gospel , that Christ died for our sins and salvation is through Him . Not any group of people who claim , falsely, that they alone can provide salvation .

  Also Christians do good works as described in the Bible , feeding the hungry , clothing the poor , providing clinics in the poorest countries.

  The WT likes to say that salvation comes through works , specifically the ones that they approve, others go about doing the works that were prepared for them to do as saved Christians.

  You haven't answered my question . What about the false prophecies of the WT ?

  Ezekiel 13:6

  Lamentations 2:14

  Jeremiah 5:30-31 .

  A tiny selection just from the OT about false prophets. Do these not apply to the WT ? Please answer that.

  ExBethelite , you are the one who make a good politician. Ignoring all points made that don't suit you .

  You know perfectly well what Cofty meant , no other group spreads lies and false prophecies as well as the Org.

  Other Christian groups do preach to a greater extent than the Org . as others on here have shown you .

  Where does it say in the Bible that wilful disregard of the Passover was punishable by death?

  Hi ExBethelite , you believe that no other Christian group is fulfilling Mat 24:14 like the JWs are .

  May l ask why you think this? Does what you " know " about other denominations come from the Org ? I am surprised and dismayed equally by what JWs think they know about other Christians.

  Also even if the WT does preach it's teachings to the ends of the earth does it count if those teachings are false ?

  Armageddon didn't come in 1975 or on any of the other dates predicted by them . Does that make them the false prophets predicted in the Bible?

  Please do your own independent research about everything that the WT has told you , not just rely on their publications.

  DISSOCIATION - Based on Covid 19

  dear friends,.

  i think you all know me as a person who has always strived, despite my imperfections to only ever wanting to be and remain in the “truth”.

  it is in fact what i so desperately want for my son ashton and my baby girl honey bee, to be lovers of truth and grow up to be a loyal servants of jehovah god and his son, jesus christ.

  Like Joey l don't agree with everything that you say about vaccines but l do agree with a lot of the other stuff you said .

  Salvation comes through Jesus not an organisation. Not one of the Bible writers say any different. I commented on this on a different thread. This teaching seems to solely be in existence to make people dependent on JWOrg and scared to leave . Brain washing at it's best ( or worst ) .

  I am curious as to your thoughts ( their teachings) about churches in Christendom. I can only speak with certainty about the Church of England, of which l am a member. However l believe that certainly most British churches are the same .

  No one is forced to give what they cannot afford, in fact no one is FORCED to give anything. That is why so many churches have jumble sales etc to raise money.

  I am in charge of my Parish church's fund raising committee. Last week we held a Beetle Drive , l know not exactly rock and roll , people can come as they choose and it's nice when non church goers come with them . So yes these events also help us to connect with the wider population, we're not daft , but no preaching , no pressure, just fun .

  So the Org's teaching which seems to be that churches of Christendom force people to give is very false. It seems to me to be the other way round , the Org appears to put emotional pressure on people to give . As well as encouraging people to give up jobs to " volunteer " so saving them money .

  There is more that l will comment on but l have bored you all enough for now.

  my first post will be hidden in the far more important news about am3.

  incredible!

  who knows what the ramifications will be.. as a pimo who still believes in the bible and christ, i wanted to share the following fun fact about the latest study publications.

  As an outsider looking in and from reading posts on this site it seems to me that the WT does preach eternal life is gained through them rather than through Jesus .

  The whole emphasis is to make people solely dependent on them for spiritual food . If salvation comes through Christ then believers could go to any faith group that preaches Jesus as Saviour.

  Underage child: PIMI vs PIMO parents rights

  by psyco in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i am a pimo, inactive, parent of an underage child.

  i was wondering what rights i have in regards to avoid that my child will be baptized when still underage, not having read the entire bible and before being able to clearly evaluate all the alternatives and consequences (like it happened to me) whereas the other pimi parent has all the rights to do it.

  any experiences about children in a pimi vs pimo parents situation?
