New Light, New Light!

by BoogerMan in

more accurately known as a reversal of a long held 'truth.'.

september 2022 study watchtower - par.

14 p. 18 - "in the past, we understood jesus’ words to refer to the deeds the resurrected ones will practice after their resurrection; that is, some will come to life and practice good things while others will come to life and practice vile things.

Longlivetherenegades

The doctrinal change is laughable.

Issue 1 from the article: In the past, we understood

Who are the WE?

1. The Governing body of Jehovah's.

2. The members who are going to PARROT what they didn't understand in the first place.

Issue 2 from the article: That makes sense, does it not?

Nothing really make sense in the first place. The members only have to obey and get indoctrinated. After all

1. even those teachings and directions that does not make sense are meant to be obeyed and adhered to.

2. The members never had the opportunity or say in doing or deciding what makes sense or not.

Should a Christian celebrate Christmas?

by Samsie in

hello, i'm new here and have woken up to the real truth concerning the org.

i'm sort of fading away at the moment.... i need help with something, i used to as a child celebrate christmas and have always had amazing memories of it (my husband hasn't as he was born into the org) but i gave it up when i learnt the "truth".

my interest was only in pleasing god and still is.

Colossians 2:16- 19 Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. 17 These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ. 18 Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you. Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind. 19 They have lost connection with the head, from whom the whole body, supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows as God causes it to grow.

Question..........

1. Please will celebrating someone who brought you salvation from sin and death cause you to lose your CONNECTION WITH THE HEAD?

2. Paul had a warning for those Such a person or persons who go into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with IDLE NOTIONS by their UNSPIRITUAL MIND.

What does idle notions mean?

1 unemployed or unoccupied; inactive

2 not operating or being used

3 (of money) not being used to earn interest or dividends

4 not wanting to work; lazy

5 usually prenominal frivolous or trivial
idle pleasures

6 ineffective or powerless; fruitless; vain

7 without basis; unfounded

a. What is active about those pagan celebrations associated with the celebrations of Christmas in recent times?

b. How many people do you see get themselves occupied or employed with those pagan celebrations?

c. Has Paul not said those things celebrated or done to idols ineffective, powerless, or vain?

1 Corinthians 8 Now about food sacrificed to idols: We know that “We all possess knowledge.” But knowledge puffs up while love builds up. 2 Those who think they know something do not yet know as they ought to know. 3 But whoever loves God is known by God.

4 So then, about eating food sacrificed to idols: We know that “An idol is nothing at all in the world” and that “There is no God but one.” 5 For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as indeed there are many “gods” and many “lords”), 6 yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live.

What is the pagan celebration in a person saying in his own heart, mind and soul that there his one Lord - - - - - Jesus Christ and choose to celebrate on a day that coincides with the day a particular IDOL which is vain, ineffective and unemployed in the heart, mind and soul of this person is equally celebrated?

Why are Jehovah's Witnesses determined to be WRONG (about saying JUH-HO-VUH and JEE-Suss)?

by Terry in

jw
friends

all throughout history in greek, hebrew, and latin languages - there was no j sound!

no jay sound.. .

why did christians start using a non-hebrew name for the son of god?

Longlivetherenegades

Interesting, what do Jehovah’s witnesses teach and preach as truth that they didn't inherit, source from somewhere else. What?

Even the name JEHOVAH they use as God's name and go about using it to condemn others as not using in their worship to God does not originate with anything whatsoever called JEHOVAH'S ORGANIZATION. I repeat

what do Jehovah’s witnesses teach and preach as truth that they didn't inherit, source from somewhere else. What?

They even had to harness different Bible commentaries of those they call CHRISTENDOM, preachers, teachers and practitioners of pagan festivals in their own publications.

I@ Gorb

Jehovah’s witnesses love to hammer humility into the minds and memories of their members but they find it difficult assimilating the below from 1 Corinthians 4:7

For who makes you(Jehovah’s witnesses) different from anyone else(those they call Christendom) ? What do you(Jehovah’s witnesses) have(truth) that you(Jehovah’s witnesses) did not receive? And if you(Jehovah’s witnesses) did receive it(truth), why do you(Jehovah’s witnesses) boast as though you(Jehovah’s witnesses) did not?

Sorry for derailing your thread. It is kind of related anyway except it is not the intended outcome you seek.

@ Nephilim87

No victim here at all. Just trying to have a conversation. I have love for everyone.

That's why you need to face the discussion and stop diverting or going into your earlier words below:

I feel like you just have a hate on for them

Then you added

The practice of disfellowship is from the Bible. 1 Cor. 5:11.

Why were they teaching that it had nothing to do with Christianity and everything to do with PAGANISM even went as far as calling the Catholics EXTREMISTS for using excommunication and disfellowshipping to TERRORISE their member? Why? Was 1 Corinthians 5:11 translated into English in years 1960 and above?

In reality, the Catholics teach this TRUTH correctly and the Jehovah’s witnesses were going back and forth with their usual light getting brighter and calling it falsehood then back to truth.

Whenever the 4 Hebrew letters for Gods name appear in the Hebrew manuscripts of the Bible, the churches have almost invariably substituted the title “Lord” in their translations. In English the letters for His name JHVH or YHWH. How can you get Lord out of that? It does not even remotely resemble the personal name of God, which with vowels added,is Jehovah or as some prefer Yahweh. I have no idea where you got the pagan origins from.

I bet you get that research from someplace somewhere isn't it. Please who coined the name JEHOVAH? Is that person a member of "Jehovah’s organisation"? Does that name "JEHOVAH" originate with member of the Jehovah’s witness religious organization or with those the religious organization called PAGAN worshippers?

I don’t know where you came up with that I dont like calling Jesus to give glory to the Father. We would all be dead without Jesus. He gave His life for us.

When you call on the name of Jesus, do you equally not call and give glory to the Father? Will you say Amen to prayers offered in the name of Jesus by those this religious organisation called CHRISTENDOM?

Again I don’t see how I’m changing the goal posts. I’m pointing out that the trinity doctrine is used by a lot of Christian churches and it is a false doctrine and Jehovahs Witnesses do not. Going back to the OP saying that what truths do they have?

You started with ALL churches and came back to popular churches. In reality the truth you say they have was not their originality they obtained it from somewhere else. Then you added

Going back to the OP saying that what truths do they have?

Which shows that the Op indeed had a point.

Have a great day. ( not meant sarcastically either)

Thank you so far you keep it in your note that my post carries no hatred. What TRUTH Jehovah’s Witnesses really have that they did not receive
