That's not recruiting. Where do they see recruiting.
And why get upset over that?

How do you find reddit
by joe134cd injust curious but how do the people off this forum find reddit.
for myself i find reddit to be sadly lacking in the jw world.
i just don't find the depth there e.g one sentence replies, trying to be funny.

As Hothabanero said "It is run by assholes. I joined and got booted in a week. So much for free speech!"
Yesterday I got an email saying I was given a 7 day ban from posting.
Oh, and where was the judical committee? They don't have those? They don't even have you face your accuser like the constitution says we have the right.
Hypocrites.

Why do Anti-Jws refuse to answer questions- and ignore our answers?

Questions and answers really isn't the issue. The issue is why do they go from the congregations to the world. Why do they get beards, tattoos, cuss & swear, celebrate birthdays and holidays.
I don't like how Witnesses say "Do you know more than the governing body"? Sure, shouldn't that be our goal, to want and have better than what they provide? I want what Christianity offers and I want more than that, and better than that.

Are JW's Sins Forgiven? NO - (Says the Watchtower)
by Sea Breeze inanyone who has been of this forum in the past few days has seen doubting thomas (an active jw) refuse over and over to provide even one scripture that can show how a jw can get their sins forgiven while outside of the new covenant as described in mt.
26: 27-28. yet, he claims to believe in the blood covering of jesus while at the same time personally rejecting the new covenant "for forgiveness of sins".
his contradictory claims are common among jw's.

SEa Breeze, Points 1-3 are incorrect.
Jehovah is our father because he was our creater
Yes, Jws are declared righteous from faith and when their sins are removed.
Yes, JWs have had their sins forgiven.
And, Yes, Jesus is the mediator for the anointed only because only they need a mediator.

Sea breeze, I"m not rejecting anything. The bread and wine are only for the apostles in that room with him. The whole memorial thing is not for anyone today.
He said to keep doing this in remembrance of him. They did not have the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke & John to remember him by. They just had their memories. Like the passover was given in memory of their leaving Egypt, This passover was given in memory of Jesus passing over their sins.
But today we have the 4 books to remember him by. So instead of bread and wine, we reread the books in remembrance of him.

One does not need to be in the new covenant to get their sins forgiven.
The new covenant is between Jehovah God and 144,000 Israelites of the spirit as they are kings and priest.
Any non-Israelites of the spirit who accept Jesus are saved by the high priest Jesus with his sacrifice.
Do you need a specific scripture telling you that? That's the problem with JWs is that they use scriptures and build on them and then build further upon them. But writers of scriptures don't write for all questions especially ones not asked of them.
Such things were taught by the Law and the temple, not specific scripture. Scriptures are interpretation of the law and temple.

"How do you expect to survive the judgement after you die as described in Hebrews 9:27 while personally rejecting the blood covenant offered for the forgiveness of sins in Mt. 26: 27-28?"
What are you talking about here? There is no judgment after one dies. " And just as it is reserved for men to die once for all time, but after this to receive a judgment," The judgment comes when Jesus resurrects people.
And what is this rejecting the blood covenant?

Yes, you can. The governing body is not the be all end all in serving God in the true Religion.
They are just the overseers of the worldwide congregation. They should not be creating rules or doctrine, but people like for them to do so because they are followers.
The first century and 2nd century Christians were JWs that didn't follow the apostles.

Bingo. You nailed it here.

"A unique teaching of JW's, presented as "good news" is a two-tier salvation"
Unique is not relevant here. What is relevant is whether it is correct and it is not really a 2 tier salvation.
It is that 144,000 have been ordained for spirit life in heaven to rule with Christ the rest are not.
