I was on holidays a few years ago and found a book on Masons in the holiday house, the owner admitted to being a mason.

I read most of the book but wasn't much enlightened to be honest, it certainly didn't explain any connections with Satan, just a whole lot of boring in depth stuff about the paraphernalia they use, and a bit of their history. All very innocuous sounding.

Was ancient Rome also Masonic I wonder?

Any recommendations on books that do shed light on masons?

Genuinely want to be able to recognise all these creeps when I come across them!

(see acts 11:26).

Thank you, that's a very thorough list of verses!

They must also change the treatment of those who dissociate themselves from the JWs. It is inevitable

by LaFrancia in

from reddit ex jw, a user posted this material of a hypothetical new light on dissociated people......i'm posting it only for the record, nothing else is known.

it seems that the topic has been deleted either by the moderators or by the user himself.

understanding dissociation in light of the scriptures.

KerryKing

The problem is that they announce the same thing from the platform, 'such and such is no longer a jw'.

How are they going to get around that? They can't say much more than that or they can be sued for GDPR or whatever it is called in other countries.

How on earth are the rnf to know who is df, who is da, and who is apostate??

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.

KerryKing

Fantastic letter, I whole heartedly agree with everything you wrote. May I use it as a template to show my parents if the need arises? They are still in, but never took the jabs, I know they have doubts but are hoping I will return some day.

You question the org, asking them why they went along with COVID. The answer is very simple, 501c3, their charity status, which they would have lost had they not complied. They are a state church, and just like every other church, they complied and lied.

CHATGPT and the Withdrawing of the Aug 2024 watchtower

by wannaexit in

jw
friends

these days i seem to talk more to chatgpt than my husband .

for fun, today i asked: why was the aug. 2024 watchtower deleted?

the august 2024 issue of the "watchtower" magazine was withdrawn due to internal controversies and significant content concerns.

KerryKing

Maybe they're waiting on a Judge's ruling somewhere in the world. After all, all their recent changes came directly after they lost a case in court.

Should Women Be Given Authority In God's Congregation?

by Golden4Altar in

should women be given authority in god's congregation?yorww congregation manuscript #1009in the beginning, god created man and woman, created both them in his "image," and according to his likeness.

this means, of course, jehovah god originally endowed both man and woman with the same capabilities and qualities of his own likeness.

thus, man and woman have the same god-given abilities, gifts and attributes so as to reflect all the "fruits of the spirit" and godly qualities in their lives, if they so desire.

KerryKing

Mmmm so scriptures taken out of context with no research into the historical and cultural background of the writers, a hierarchy and an insistence on one true religion.

So exactly the same as JW.org but under a different name 🤷

Yesterday's Public Talk: '' Reject Worldly Fantasies, Pursue Kingdom Realities''

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

my brother ( an elder ) calls me every time he's assigned a public talk.

he believes listening to zoom meetings is a great start, to eventually attending in-person meetings.

the talk is titled : '' reject worldly fantasies, pursue kingdom realities.

KerryKing

The last public talk I listened to the speaker stated that the covid vaccine was comparable to Jesus ransom sacrifice, and those who rejected the vaccine are like those who reject Jesus.

I logged off immediately never to go back!

The August 2024 Watchtower controversy and potential further changes

by ukpimo in

as an educated guess, the august 2024 watchtower may be delayed because 2 complicated subjects need to be discussed in this issue which haven't yet been approved to be included in the revised shepherding textbook.

perhaps the revised shepherding textbook must be finalised before this watchtower is released publicly.. the 2 subjects may be as follows:.

how to shepherd and appoint brothers based on the removal of the hour requirements, getting to know the brothers instead (does this mean prioritising appointing men who have auxiliary pioneered during the co visit and campaigns or men who are regular pioneers?).

KerryKing

Maybe that WT is dependent on the outcome of one or more court cases , and whether they'll need to spin more 'new light ' or not.
