  Human imperfection, church policy or hypocrisy?? Watchtower vs BMG

  by lssjr in

  2. beliefs

  this new lawsuit continues to compound undeniable evidence that jehovah’s witnesses is keener in monopolizing "the truth" or making "kingdom assets" an exclusive right, so that they can interests of their "king, jesus christ".

  it is clearly evident also the they are willing to fight for frivolous and materialistic rights they believe they are entitled to, but when it comes to child sexual abuse issues and their role, they certainly love to twist and hide behind law, to escape blame and responsibility.. below is the full text from https://avoidjw.org/en/news/watch-tower-bmg-music/.

  the court documents are also available for download in the aforementioned link.. further commentary can also be found on watchtower sues bmg rights management over aled jones song.

  the latest gb update ramps up the fear of the plandemic even more, and introduces a whiteboard animation that advocates staying at home, wearing masks and social distancing.. https://www.jw.org/finder?locale=en&category=latestvideos&item=pub-jwb_202012_12_video&docid=1011214&applanguage=e.

  then there's another 'save the planet' type article that mentions debunked and unrealistic green new deal-esque talking points such as alternative energy, switching to a plant based diet and less manufacturing.. https://www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/peace-happiness/save-earth/.

  The “new system” sounds more and more like a spiritual North Korea.

  i think it should simply be there to help us citizens.

  and besides giving money to other countries, stop giving money to the arts and entertainment..... give money to help taxpayers struggling with debt .

  period!!!

  i decided on christmas day to wash the house and do some yard work.

  i had a concerned neighbour come out and bring me some of their christmas food.

  although i appreciated the food and wished her a merry christmas, the neighbour was concerned as to why i wasn’t inside enjoying christmas.

  I have such sad memories growing up, knowing all the kids I knew were getting gifts and having fun family time, while for me it was a sad, dreary day. I used to have a fantasy that I would wake up to a beautifully decorated Christmas tree, with gifts, and my parents saying , “Surprise! We decided to quit being witnesses! Merry Christmas!” That never happened. I vowed to myself that I would NEVER bring a child into the world to feel that way. And I didn’t. The joy of seeing my daughters happy face on Christmas morning is indescribable, and now it carries on with my grandchildren. Btw, I bought an impulse purchase at Costco, which turned out to be the highlight of his day. A little hovering toy. He LOVED it. He went to a birthday party last week, and the birthday boy got this. My grandson was so jealous, he wanted one so bad. His parents said maybe for his birthday. There it was, from Grammy and grandpa. 😀

  from the borg?.

  i point to none other than cal lehman and the towerwatch ministries.

  towewatch.com.. the years following the collapse of the ussr and the 1995 generation left a bad taste in my mouth for a long time.

  I had already left, went completely inactive, but POMI, accepted my death at Armageddon, but wanted a few years free of WT control, holidays, voting, and living a “normal” life. While reading the newspaper one day, I saw a small ad which said, “Jehovah’s Witnesses, how is the Watchtower financed? “. There was a 1-800 number to call, I called it every day for a couple of weeks, finally wrote to the P.O. Box number, within days this kind Christian couple called me and set up a meeting with other ex JWs there, the rest is history. 😀

  Talking to a Jehovah`s Witness .Ask the right questions .

  by smiddy3 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  what questions should be asked to a jehovah`s witness when confronted with them.. a jw gives his sermon.

  "you" immediately ask him by what authority he has from god that you should take notice of him ,seeing their are over 40,000 different christian religions in the world who claim to represent god,.

  Smiddy, I tried this on my mom, about if Jesus picked them as “the truth” in 1919, why aren’t they teaching the same thing as back then. Her answer was “Jesus saw they were on the right track.” I brought up the Ethiopian eunuch who believed and was baptized right away. She said, “Well, we have a better understanding now. “ You just can’t win with these people.
