  Blood doctrine question

  by AuntBee in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  when witnesses go on and on about bloodless medicine, they often imply that this will work in all situations.

  do they really believe this, because it's what the society has led them to believe?

  are they just trying to divert their own mind, from the reality of blood deaths, that still happen?

  blondie,

  I don`t think he does anymore ,fix other peoples PC`s that is. I think he got sick of fixing PC`s for old farts like me and asking dumb questions .

  I`ve actually been on this site now for about 13 years and I had Marvin ages ago but when I changed my PC and server I lost him and didn`t have the nouse to get him back.

  Thanks Biahi ,but not so much of the "old"......... never mind you qualify as a friend you can call whatever you want .

  resolute Bandicoot ,you`ve got me their cobber ,what the fricken hell is a "Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator" ? I just like the image of Marvin.

  Thanks Listener ,they say your only as young as you feel ,.....I must be the oldest man on the planet , heh ,its not a selfie you know.

  you know, i'm not such a conspiracy thinker.

  but why do they display this sign / symbol at the background?

  with some litle imagination it is a freemason sign.

  So Christendom can`t use symbols because it proves they are either Satanic or just plain false religion .

  However the "True " religion /Jehovah`s Witnesses can use symbols such as "W" or "JW.ORG" or the Tetragrammaton and it doesn`t offend Jehovah / Christ Jesus ?

  Double standards anybody ?

  How Would You Help A JW. Recognize They Do Not Have The Truth?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  every witness says they are “ in the truth”.

  that expression implies that what they say is the “truth “.

  how could you help a witness understand that they clearly do not have “the truth “?.

  Ask them why when Jesus came to inspect and approve "the truth" in 1919 why have all the teachings that he approved of in 1919 are now considered apostate teachings?

  That`s it in a nutshell Tenacious ,,and I thank Don Cameron and his book "Captives Of A Concept " to showing me this and many more subtle twists of the Scriptures the WT /JW `s do to validate their twisted version of Christianity .

  For their own agenda.

  charles t. russell, age of 13, joined the congregational church (dumped presbyterian).. he went (like girl scouts are sent out with cookies to sell) door to door to raise money for the congregational church.. attitude as a youthrussell hated fundraising.

  he had to ask poor people to part with their money.

  he said he felt he was "fleecing the flock.".

  Just one question: Why doesn't the WTBTS (in the U.S.) have to publicly show its balance sheets nowadays?

  One can only hope that in the not too distant future they will be required to .

  the bible books that speak of a time when the israelite`s were enjoying jehovah`s blessings , isnt it true they were still dying from old age ,sickness , and death ?

  didn`t they have a leper colony in their midst ?....yes.

  didn`t they still have the poor among them ?
