  Hi Mary, sadly no mention of his being a JW, however, as I mentioned, I know him personally. He was an elder in the cong I grew up in. He raped his own daughter, among other offences. I can't tell you how happy I am to see him behind bars.

  This is the first JW book I can remember. My dad "studied" it with me when I was 5 or 6 years old. It scared the crap out of me. For years I had nightmares about our neighbors attacking my family and beating the hell out of my dad.

  Where in the Bible does it talk about an earthly Paradise as the JW's teach, and why only the JW's will be there?

  Paradise is mentioned in the New Testament three times: 2 Cor 12:4, Rev 2:7, Lk 23:43.

  In each instance it's apparent from the context that HEAVEN is being referred to, not earth. The JW bible mistranslates Lk 23:43 to obscure the fact.

  I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know—God knows. And I know that this man—whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, but God knows— was caught up to paradise and heard inexpressible things, things that no one is permitted to tell. (2 Cor 12:2-4)
  
  Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who is victorious, I will give the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God. (Rev 2:7)
  
  Jesus answered him, "Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise." (Luke 23:34)

  The Watchtower is not the instrument of any man or set of men, nor is it published according to the whims of men. No man's opinion is expressed in The Watchtower. –The Watchtower, November 1, 1931, page 327

  For an answer, people should listen to the plain preaching by the remnant prefigured by Jeremiah, for these preach to men the present-day fulfillment of Jeremiah's prophecies. Who made them a prophet to speak with the authority that they claim? Well, who made Jeremiah a prophet? –The Watchtower, January 15, 1959, page 39.

  Who will be Jehovah's prophet to the nations, to speak to them everything that He should command? Who will be the modern Jeremiah? ... Jehovah's witnesses are deeply grateful today that the plain facts show that God has been pleased to use them. ... Jehovah thrust out his hand of power and touched their lips and put his words in their mouths... –The Watchtower, January 15, 1959, page 40-41.

  Unlike the clergy class, those of the Jeremiah classhave been sent by Jehovah to speak in his name. –The Watchtower, September 1, 1979, page 29.

  I had NO idea about the letter to Hitler......

  by Flg8ter in

  2. scandals

  this was brand new to me........did some research, like we're not supposed to do ;) and dug up crazy stuff that i had no idea about.

  my whole life we were taught have bad and evil "christendom" was for trying to pacify hiter during his rise to power, and how different we were for standing up to him!.

  then i found about the letter dated june 25,1933 from rutherford and his writting team to hiter.

  Probably NOT to be read out during the midweek meeting:

  "If anyone continues to prophesy, his own father and mother will tell him, 'You must die, for you have prophesied lies in the name of the LORD.'...

  "Each will say, 'I am not a prophet. I am a farmer.....

  (Zech 13:3,5)

  If God is so set on devoted "worship", why didn't he create animals with abilities to do this as well?

  by lurk3r in

  2. beliefs

  not sure if the way i phrased this sounds retarded or not, but i feel it's a legit thought.

  god creates the earth giving it "life".

  gives animals and the rest of his creation the same, but never created them to "worship".

  Good question. I've added it to my list of things about the Bible that make no sense.
