  Daniel was wrong about the fate of the King of the North…..and so is the WT & others

  by deegee in

  2. beliefs

  the king of the north, that is, the king of the country geographically located north of judea/palestine was identified by the actual events of history as the seleucids of syria, in particular, the reign of antiochus iv epiphanes.

  the king of the south, that is, the king of the country geographically located south of judea/palestine was identified by the actual events of history as the ptolemies of egypt.

  daniel 11:40-45 prophesied that antiochus (king of the north) would make war once again against egypt, and would die on the coast of palestine “between the sea and the holy mountain”.

  One aspect of the Bible I still greatly benefit from

  by Ireneus in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  though many things in the bible do not make sense to me, there is something in it that makes my life easy.. this is how i arrived at it.

  bible defines god as the servant of his children because he makes provisions for the enjoyment of life in abundance (mathew 5:44-47) and ‘renews’ them if need arises (mathew 19:28) with no intervention whatsoever in between which means he is not interested in gratitude/worship from his children.

  yet history shows that people forget him in happiness and remember him only in distress which means he is not given love (though he is the giver of love), and he is not bothered of it.

  Contradictions!

  by Freedom rocks in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  quite regularly at meetings jws mocked worldly people and apostates(anyone who had left the "truth") for saying the bible contradicts itself when it is in complete harmony from beginning to end apparently.

  can anyone point out some of the contradictions they know of?

  they used to laugh at the fact people on the doors would say the bible contradicts itself and when they asked the householder to show them where, they couldn't..

  Could The Governing Body Harboring Pedophiles In High Positions Among Them?

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i'm sure most are familiar with the greenlee's story floating around the internet.

  so what if some members of the governing body have been accused of molesting a child and used the 2 witness rule to silence a accusation?

  so could it be that because some high up watchtower corporation person/persons has clung to the rule because it save's his corporate ass.

  An honest look at the situation

  by Formerbrother in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i was brought up in the truth.

  i saw a lot unchristian things going on in my local body of elders, my dad was an elder and waiting outside elders meetings to go home with my mum and other wives, we sometimes heard raised voices in the 2nd school.

  the other mums would raise their voices as well thinking of something to say to hide the elders 'private' arguments.. my dad hated it all, i think he hated having to keep things secret from my mum and me.. anyway, i got baptised, and as we did back then didnt think about further education but instead pioneered.

  2. beliefs

  i have seen so many that have left.

  and their life turned into a dumpster fire.

  most do not live the average life of living in suburbs, raising a family.
