In the OT was polygamy allowed for the purpose of filling the earth, and later growing the Israelite nation? Like a massive breeding programme?
No longer needed once the Jews were rejected so back to one wife like Adam!

Is 1st Century advice on marriage still relevant in today’s modern world?
by liam inrepublicans want to make a law that forbids ‘uncontested divorce”.
they based this on this scripture.. matthew 19. is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any and every reason?”.
4 “haven’t you read,” jesus replied, “that at the beginning the creator ‘made them male and female,’and said, ‘for this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’ so they are no longer two, but one flesh.

Olympic games/ jw.org keep on the watch
by Gorb inthe main article on jw.org is about the succesfull olympic games 2024 in paris.. many withness watch all the sport episodes of the games, but jw.org comes with a sour story about the games and not reaching real peace.. again jw.org is on the wrong side of history a d doesn't feel the public anx jw opinion.
the closing remarks of the ioc president bach, thaf the games will not reach peace but plant peace in the hart of people was a strong message.. the organization and message of the games is all that jw.org wants to, but can't.. very sad and narrow minded, as ever.
gorby.

Seems like WT only wants peace on THEIR terms, by the killing of billions of people. They're on the WEF program, not God's.

Marriage was between man woman and God, only relatively recently did church and state hijack marriages as another way to control the population. And as another source of revenue. Slavery isn't condemned anywhere in the Bible but then it still exists everywhere, we're all wage and or tax slaves. Freedom in this world is an illusion, or why is it that only the super rich don't pay tax at all.

Sad observation
by Gorb inreading about jw.org rules changes these days gives me a sad observation.. everything what "is" today, can be gone tomorrow.. that makes it all worthless.
you were an elder, searching for evidence, and proof to df a person.
because he or she was not humble enough.

Their Bible trained conscience, sorry WT trained, allows for all the changes because they're all Jehovah's doing, they're just following orders, sorry I mean following the 'new light'.

But they own both corporations don't they?
So there really is no schism?
Under Aims for IBSA it states 'legal agency for Jehovah's Witnesses '.
What does that mean legally, how does that affect individual 'baptised' (actually sworn in) members of the religion?

Do JWs believe Jesus is an angel?
by slimboyfat ini would suggest:.
the short answer is yes.. the longer answer is a qualified yes, with some caveats.
the short answer is yes because jehovah’s witnesses teach that jesus is michael the archangel, their leader, eldest and most powerful, and have taught this since the very beginning of the religion.

In the Lord's Prayer though, Jesus does not end with 'through Jesus Christ Amen', he doesn't even mention himself once in that prayer.

Why did the Jews bring sacrifices to the high priest? What was the point of killing all those animals if not for forgiveness of sins?
Jesus was the sacrifice to end all sacrifices, and is a High Priest, but only OUR High Priest if we believe in Him.

How would you rate the Watchtower approved songs?
by Vanderhoven7 ini was asking why jws won't sing any church hymns even if they were doctrinally correct.
jws asked me in response if i would sing any of their songs.. dan watkins wrote .
its a hilarious misunderstanding, if it does not come from the watchtower bible and tract society, then it is effectively considered as coming from satan.

They'll probably soon use AI to create their art and music, more Bethelites on the streets.
