  Eternity...with or without Jehovah?

  by Salamanda in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  do jw's believe that when they finally make it to the paradise earth, that jehovah will continue to dwell in heaven?

  basically, that they will not get to be with jehovah forever?

  if this is the case, does this bother faithful jws?.

  All this dreamed up by an alcohol induced delusion by a bunch of power hungry men. Is it possible? Like everything they but out, it's delusional.

  Profanity on Surrey Kingdom Hall

  by lssjr in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if it is a non-jw who did this as a result of their pandemic campaign (letter-writing and telephone calls), jehovah’s witnesses really need to check themselves.

  they have been directed by their new york headquarters (since last year shortly after the start of the pandemic) to send letters to only people they know.

  people don’t like receiving unwanted, unrequested, unsolicited letters and phone calls, especially from jehovah’s witnesses.. if it is a former member who received a letter as a result letter-writing pandemic campaign- most former members do not like being harassed by active jehovah’s witnesses and have been directed by their new york headquarters to send letters to and call only people they know.. .

  From the writing on the wall, someone had enough of the JW letters that they where getting. I would just dump a bag of them at the steps of the kingdom hall.

  Why does God need to be worshipped?

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the bible exhorts us to “worship the one who made the heaven and the earth and sea and fountains of waters.”—deuteronomy 4:24; revelation 14:7.. insight on the scriptures, volume 2 pp 1200-1202. worshipone of the hebrew words conveying the idea of worship (ʽa·vadhʹ) basically means “serve.” (ge 14:4; 15:13; 29:15) serving or worshiping jehovah required obedience to all of his commands, doing his will as a person exclusively devoted to him.

  (ex 19:5; de 30:15-20; jos 24:14, 15) therefore, for an individual to engage in any ritual or act of devotion toward any other gods signified his abandoning true worship.​—de 11:13-17; jg 3:6, 7.another hebrew term that can denote worship is hish·ta·chawahʹ, which primarily means “bow down” (ge 18:2), or do obeisance.

  Why does the God of the universe, all knowing, all powerful, need humans to worship him and give him money? I smell a rat!

  Havent gone to the kingdom hall in ten years but may have to go back...

  2. experiences

  made a big mistake of talking about being raised as a jehovah's witness to some old friends and family.

  people have told me that i am still a jws even though i've never been baptized.

  i'm in school for social services, dealing with student loan debt, and a lot of other debt.

  Take my advice, you need some counseling. I had some when I woke up and faded. It helped alot. Things will get better for you as you get busy living your life. Find friend that will help you as a support system. Trust me! It will only get better.

  Phone witnessing and the Year Book

  by Diogenesister in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  when the “year book” is published online next year, and the number of new baptisms is roughly the same as it always is, how are they going to deny that their new “converts” are nothing more than born-in kids of witnesses or already “captive” family and friends?.

  the “billions” of hours of service are at best pointless and ineffective and at worse often fabricated.. what say you?.

  I got a letter from a JW. Right into the trash it went. It is the same for anyone who gets a strange letter from a Jw.

  You can warm up the same soup for only so long till it looses loses its flavor. Same with Watchtower material. It has been warmed up, chopped. Baked. Same old crap over and over. Doesn't work anymore.
