Are we living in the LAST DAYS?

by Fisherman in

are we living in the prophetic last days that will climax into armageddon?

if this is true then how long should it take?

as jw saw it, wt compared timing to within a generation using 70 ad as a parallel.

Sue sure, this world has a hell of a lot of problems , in all matters of life and morality .

But that just doesnt mean Jehovah`s Witnesses have the answers to all of lifes problems.

If you want to help sort out youth`s problems about sex and gender etc,etc. Good for you .

Get involved with some community group in your area, that deals with helping youth making sense of all this.

The Jehovah`s witnesses have no programs in helping youth`s or adults in crisis situations ,all they will say is wait on jehovah !

Big help that is.

The world has a lot of programs you can be involved in to help vulnerable people ,people with disabilities ,people with mental issues ,drug and alcohol problems ,young families struggling to cope ,the list goes on and on .

If your so concerned get involved with any one of these as jehovah`s witnesses wont get involved in any of these programs , they will just wait on Jehovah . A copout.

The Messianic Prophecies and Their Fulfillment in Jesus

by aqwsed12345 in

the belief in the messiah, which has lived in the collective consciousness of humanity since ancient times, became completely obscured among the gentiles, and only remained with the jewish people, who were later chosen by god, as the prophecies of the prophets kept it alive.

there was only one great promise in the old testament from god, which awaited fulfillment!

only one great desire was there in the old testament on the part of man, longing for satisfaction.

smiddy3

Obviously, if Jesus was not who he claimed he was: The “Messiah” and/or the Gospels are myths, then there is no point in considering anything at all about Jesus or the so called New Testament

I think that just about sums up my take on the Bible and where I stand as far as religion is concerned .

Different Countries and cultures came up with their very different beliefs and practices throughout the Centuries.

Christianity is just one of many.

but given the gospels are true, the miracles, his resurrection, God’s voice from heaven, that is striking proof that Jesus is the Messiah.

That is just heresay ,there is no proof at all of what you claim .There is no verified secular record that any of this ever occurred .

All of these claims of proof are contained in a book of fiction that is called the Bible and that is where it should be in a library the fiction section.

No God past or present has ever spoken to anybody from heaven , except to the delusional / or mentally ill person.

GOD ,He /,she ,has had ample opportunity to speak to mankind over many serious events that have taken place in history, both ancient and modern ,and we have heard nothing .......,zilch, from any GOD ever.

What does that say about those that do that ?

And if some here can give some examples of those lies told ,it could be very helpful for those who are not aware that this happens.

November 2023 Study Watchtower quotes Jesus!!!

by BoogerMan in

study watchtower november 2023 p. 13 par.

19 - "jesus foretold: “you will be hated by all the nations on account of my name.” (matt.

so true christians would be hated because of the name of jesus, not jehovah????.

smiddy3

2000 years later ,do any nations hate anyone because of the name Jesus ? I don`t think so.

And aren`t Christians supposed to be witnesses of Jesus Christ ? No one else ?

Thank you for your response sue ,I understand better now.But please don`t fall back into the trap of trying to get re-instated again ,

look into JWFacts b4 you make that fateful decision.I

was a convert at 20 years old convinced my then GF to become one also and her sister and a nephew of ours ,married my then GF in a KH a year later ,brought up 2 boys in da troof ,37 years later we were all out ,Thank god ,no he/she had nothing to do with it.It was because of some little niggling points that didn`t seem to gel and then doing my own research on the internet that clinched the deal.JW/WT is a man made American religion that is nothing more or less than a cult religion

.Don`t minimize all of their failed prophecy`s / predictions ,and there are many over the years ,which proves they do not have God`s spirit backing them.Unless you think GOD doesn`t know what he is talking about.

Take care

, I wish you well.smiddy3

Tony Morris replaced - by ANOTHER teleprompter reader!

by BoogerMan in

the whitewashing of tm111 from jw history continues - tending to confirm that he was booted.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ghbhv6961a.

i'm pretty sure the cult got him to sign a nice nda - in exchange for a lifetime residency in the house bought by wt..

smiddy3

I fail to understand if what she is accusing him of is true , why hasn`t she made a formal complaint to the police, or authorities ?

Or has she ?

And if what she is publicly accusing him of is false ,she is opening herself up to being sued by him / and or WatchTower ?

And she doesn`t come across as being a silly / stupid woman just looking / seeking attention !

I guess we will just have to keep watching this space for further developments.

She may very well be a brave woman to do so , so publicly.
