To whom should Christians pray to?
by Longlivetherenegades in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
it is funny how christians argue back and forth over the father, jesus christ and make it look as the father and the son are are loggerheads over supremacy.. even who to pray to between the father and jesus are means to create rivalry.

it boils down to this, your essence of being a christian goes beyond those unending argument making jesus a rival of his father.

psalms 65: 2. o hearer of prayer, to you people of all sorts* will come.. john 14: 13 also, whatever you ask in my name , i will do this, so that the father may be glorified in connection with the son.

Since God is loving, why will God send people to hell?

jehovah’s witnesses believe via russell..... a god that would use his power to create human beings whom he foreknew and predestinated should be eternally tormented, could neither be wise, just nor loving.

his standards would be lower than that of many men....mankind search for god pg 351. hebrews 12: 8 for the lord disciplines those he loves, and he punishes each one he accepts as his child.

for reasoning sake, does russell argument holds here since even those god sees as children and god loves are disciplined or punished?.

There is no 1900 year old faithful and discreet slave

now that the long-expected kingdom had become an established reality in heaven, surely its growing interests in the earth after 1919 would not be left in the hands of a novice organization of spiritual babes.

and that proved to be true.

it was the 1900-year-old “faithful and discreet slave,” the old christian congregation, that was entrusted with this precious kingdom service.

i need help regarding a video where geoffrey jackson likened the governing body to a watch dog given false alarms to its owner just like they do regarding numerous false alarms about the world coming to an end.

here is why i need that video.

to make comparison with the words of geoffrey jackson (the false dog illustration) fully, the words of gerrit losch (who was reading out list of those who had given false predictions and alarms in times past before jehovah’s witnesses took over) .

1. watchtower
2. bible
i have come to notice something about jehovah’s witnesses.

whenever you point out their lies and manipulations, they run under the cover of "our understanding" .

they will say our understanding then was this, or that.

2. bible
kudos to @terry on this one.

watchtower july 15, 1952 page 426......... however, coming from apostate religious systems these brought with them many beliefs and practices which were, in fact, just so much wood material, hay and stubble.

among such were the beliefs that it was necessary to develop a beautiful character to get to heaven and that that was a christian’s chief duty; the notion that christians must appear sanctimonious and pious, evincing more concern over what men thought than over what god thought; false teachings such as that the political powers of this wicked world were the “higher powers” of romans 13:1 who must be obeyed even though they contradicted god’s expressed commandments; that a pile of stone in egypt constituted a witness to jehovah (isa.
