(luke 12:10) "and everyone who says a word against the son of man, it will be forgiven him, but whoever blasphemes (speaks reproachfully, vilifies*) against the governing body will not be forgiven.".

most active jw's know that this is the org's dogma regarding the unforgiveable sin - in teaching & in practice.. *https://www.blueletterbible.org/lexicon/g987/kjv/tr/0-1/ sheesh - looks like i'm toast!.

Haha!😆Nice one.

Elders are appointed by ~~Jesus~~ the GB/FD$/BethelSystem/CO/OtherElders. They are more like demi gods in their own eyes! If you go against your local elders then you will not be forgiven by the GB/FD$/BethelSystem/COs/OtherElders.

It reminds me of that guy Demetrius in Acts 19:24-28...

"For a man named De·meʹtri·us, a silversmith who made silver shrines of Arʹte·mis, brought considerable profit to the craftsmen. He gathered them and others who worked at such things and said: “Men, you well know that from this business comes our prosperity. Now you see and hear how, not only in Ephʹe·sus but in nearly all the province of Asia, this Paul has persuaded a considerable crowd and turned them to another opinion, saying that the gods made by hands are not really gods. Moreover, the danger exists not only that this business of ours will come into disrepute but also that the temple of the great goddess Arʹte·mis will be viewed as nothing, and she who is worshipped in the whole province of Asia and the inhabited earth will be deprived of her magnificence.” Hearing this and becoming full of anger, the men began crying out: “Great is Arʹte·mis of the E·pheʹsians!”"

Many of the JWBorg "elders" are a lot like the guys getting their "profit/fame/power" from the false worship Artemis, only the idol is of the GB/FD$. If the GB/FD$ gets into disrepute, the entire JWBorg "elder" worship system will crash too. Many of the "elders" are like Balaam, shepherds "serving" for a selfish reward, stumbling others by promoting teachings that encourage figurative "sacrificing to the idols" of the GB/FD$/BethelSystem/COs/OtherElders.

Jude 11

"Too bad for them, for they have followed the path of Cain and have rushed into the erroneous course of Baʹlaam for reward"

2 Peter 2:15,16

"Abandoning the straight path, they have been led astray. They have followed the path of Baʹlaam the son of Beʹor, who loved the reward of wrongdoing, but was reproved for his own violation of what was right"

Revelation 2:14

"you have there those adhering to the teaching of Baʹlaam, who taught Baʹlak to put a stumbling block before the sons of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols"

Jesus said to such ones (JWBorg "elders" who encourage worship of GB/FD$/BethelSystem/COs/OtherElders) "So repent. If you do not, I am coming to you quickly, and I will war against them with the long sword of my mouth."

GB headquarters will be torn down by the governments with Jesus' permission. When it's gone, the entire unscriptural JWBorg arrangement of elder worship will go too.

Are Elders prepared to take the fall for WT/GB misdemeanor's / crime ??

by smiddy3 in

i have been thinking about this in relation to the directive given to elders to destroy any incriminating evidence they may have either on their pc`s ,e-mails , private notes in their possession, or notes in their witnessing bags ,etc.

to do with child sexual abuse they may still have in their possession.. isn`t that encouraging the elders to interfere with the justice system ?.

to break the law?.

"Surely Elders are not dumb enough not to know their would
/ could be consequences if they obeyed these instructions ?"

They're dumb enough. It's sad, but most of them are dumb enough. Most of them were willing to trade truth/wisdom/love for "glory from men" and position. Some of them are sincere and are waking up to the reality the GB/FD$ is attempting to play the role of a god; some of them are just so busy and stressed and not thinking; but most of them are really dumb and have no clue about what is coming on the JWBorg. Totally clueless. "You reap what you sow" and they've been sowing trouble for a long time.

Hosea 8:7

"For it is wind that they are sowing,

And they will reap a storm wind."

@Teddnzo...

The Billy Joel song, "Only the Good Die Young" was talking about a man who was trying to seduce a Catholic virgin girl into sleeping with him. He told her "only the good die young" to tempt her so that she could supposedly have a longer life as a sinner according to his twisted words. It was fallacious reasoning, just like most of your posts.

You mentioned something about Salena's book, but you already know the title, it's called "Nesting Dolls". Maybe she'll make some money from this recent promo. As you already know, she also has a bunch of weird websites that all have the ICE and national trafficking line listed as the website phone number, even though her websites are not officially linked to those other agencies.

Proverbs 14:5

"A faithful witness will not lie,

But a false witness lies with every breath."

Job 34:3

"For the ear tests words

Just as the tongue tastes food."

revelation 21:2 i also saw the holy city, new jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from god and prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.. hebrews 11:10 for he (abraham) was awaiting the city having real foundations, whose designer and builder is god.. revelation 21:24 and the nations will walk by means of its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it.. revelation 22:1 and he showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, flowing out from the throne of god and of the lamb 2 down the middle of its main street (of the holy city).

"I have asked you before if you are born again and you didn't answer."

That's because your motives at the time seemed suspect. You were trying to set me up to knock me down, and I'm not into that. You weren't listening when I was trying to tell you that I do not subscribe to all the "WT doctrines", so I didn't see the need to answer your question at that time. Plus, I don't like it when people go around saying "I'm anointed" or "I'm born again" all the time because it's annoying and a lot of time it seems like they're trying to lord it over someone in an obnoxious way. At present, I had to answer because you openly slandered me by claiming something that I never said.

"May I ask if you encourage others to accept this new covenant or do you still feel that it is limited to 144K like WT teaches?"

I believe what the Bible teaches. Some of what the WT teaches is also what the Bible teaches. Some of what the WT teaches is not what the Bible teaches. I do not cling to a teaching just because a certain group teaches it. I cling to God's Word and the direction of His holy spirit as poured out by the Christ.

If someone is party to the new covenant, then they already know - I do not have to "encourage" them.

Galatians 4:6

"Now because you are sons, God has sent the spirit of his Son into our hearts, and it cries out: “Abba, Father!”"

1 John 2:27

"And as for you, the anointing that you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to be teaching you; but the anointing from him is teaching you about all things and is true and is no lie."

The book of Leviticus was part of the Mosaic Law. The Israelites of ancient times were gathered to hear the law and to obey the principles in the Law, but not all of them were priests or kings. The king was supposed to make copies of the Law, and yet he did not take part in the direction for the priests. The priests didn't take part in the direction for the king. Not every Israelite was a priest and not every Israelite was a king, but they all could read the Law and the Prophets and learn from it.

It is the same today. We read the Hebrew Scriptures, but we are not bound by them. We know the book of Leviticus was for the priests of old, but we still learn from reading it. We read the Christian Greek Scriptures, but not all Christians are bound to follow the specific directions for those assigned to be kings/priests in the kingdom. All Christians are redeemed by the blood of the Christ, but not all are in the covenant for a kingdom, to rule as kings and priests.

When it says the 144,000 come out of all "Israel", it means the the 144,000 kings and priests come out of all Christians. Christians all have one Father, one shepherd, they are all one flock, and all will see God ("and God himself will be with them") and all will hang out with Christ ("truly you will be with me in paradise"). But not all Christians need to partake of the emblems. It isn't necessary. They are already redeemed by his blood. Their faith is shown by partaking of his teachings, by proclaiming their faith in his blood, by obeying his teachings on love free from hypocrisy.

The partaking of the emblems is symbolic of becoming one flesh with the Christ as part of his figurative bride, which will be made manifest when they are ruling with him in the kingdom. The partaking of the emblems is symbolic of being a new creation, since only those who are a new creation can "work" in the "temple" - heaven. It is not necessary to be "a new creation" to be a Christian; it is not necessary to be "a new creation" to live on earth and hang out with Christ and God when they walk the earth and eat and hang out with all of God's children here. The entire universal family will be united and get to hang out.

Just like only the priests of old partook of the installation sacrifices at the temple, so today. If a Christian is not assigned to work as a priest in the kingdom of the heavens, he or she does not need to partake of the emblems. That's why the Lord's Evening Meal will end when the 144,000 are joined to the Christ at the marriage of the Lamb. The partaking of the emblems will not go on during the 1000 years, because it's not a requirement for being a Christian.

Love is a requirement for being a Christian.

"By this all will know that you are my disciples, if you have love among yourselves."

Acts 15:29 - "keep abstaining from blood"

by aqwsed12345 in

for a christian, only the moral commandments of the old testament are binding (as they cannot change), but the various liturgical, social, and other so-called casuistic laws no longer apply to them.

this includes dietary habits, such as the prohibition of pork or fat, as well as the prohibition of blood.. take a look at the following verses: mt 15:11, mk 7:15-19, acts 11:7-9, 1 tim 4:3-5.. the jehovah's witnesses say that, yes, but in the acts of the apostles (15) the consumption of blood, idol meat, and strangled animals is also prohibited, meaning the new testament still forbids it.

for catholics, the council of florence settled this issue, stating that this apostolic regulation was only a temporary measure to facilitate agreement between jews and gentiles in the early church.

HEAD KNIGHT: It is a good shrubbery. I like the laurels particularly,... but there is one small problem.

ARTHUR: What is that?

HEAD KNIGHT: We are now... no longer the Knights Who Say 'Ni'.

KNIGHTS OF NI: Ni! Shh!

HEAD KNIGHT: Shh! We are now the Knights Who Say 'Ecky-ecky-ecky-ecky-pikang-zoop-boing-goodem-zu-owly-zhiv'.

HEAD KNIGHT: Therefore, we must give you a test.

ARTHUR: What is this test, O Knights of-- knights who till recently said 'ni'?

HEAD KNIGHT: Firstly, you must find... another shrubbery!

[dramatic chord]

ARTHUR: Not another shrubbery!

RANDOM: Ni!

HEAD KNIGHT: Then, when you have found the shrubbery, you must place it here beside this shrubbery, only slightly higher so you get the two-level effect with a little path running down the middle.

KNIGHTS OF NI: A path! A path! A path! Ni! Shh! Knights of Ni! Ni! Ni! Shh! Shh!...

HEAD KNIGHT: Then, when you have found the shrubbery, you must cut down the mightiest tree in the forest... with... a herring!

[dramatic chord]

KNIGHTS OF NI: A herring!

ARTHUR: We shall do no such thing!

HEAD KNIGHT: Oh, please!

ARTHUR: Cut down a tree with a herring? It can't be done

Funny, there are "red herrings" all over this thread, but not one has been able to cut down the basic clear command from God for Christians: "Abstain from blood."

Isaiah 40:8

"The green grass dries up,

The blossom withers,

But the word of our God endures forever.”

"As far as I know"

🙄

(Just goes to show how little you know.)

You have no clue what you are talking about, @SeaBreeze. You are making stuff up. I've very clearly expressed my faith in the ransom blood of the Christ. I am party to the new covenant, and I partake of the wine and the bread as evidence of that relationship with the Christ.

You are a slanderer, @SeaBreeze, and I have no desire to talk with you any more on this forum.

Hebrews 10:26-31

"For if we practice sin willfully after having received the accurate knowledge of the truth, there is no longer any sacrifice for sins left, but there is a certain fearful expectation of judgment and a burning indignation that is going to consume those in opposition. Anyone who has disregarded the Law of Moses dies without compassion on the testimony of two or three. How much greater punishment do you think a person will deserve who has trampled on the Son of God and who has regarded as of ordinary value the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and who has outraged the spirit of undeserved kindness with contempt? For we know the One who said: “Vengeance is mine; I will repay.” And again: “Jehovah will judge his people.” It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God."

Taking in blood products in any form is wrong in God's eyes. When the blood comes out of the body, it needs to be disposed of. End of story.
