  In essence JWS are enslaved to the sins and apostasy orchestrated by the Watchtower Corporation/ JWorg.

  Pointing this out and exposing this endeavor by those involved is a true act of faithful and loyal Christianity.

  2020 Convention Friday Highlights: Information Control and Hypocrisy

  by neat blue dog in

  there's yet another talk to add to the list of talks written specifically for damage control against "apostates".

  the speaker says, "some who were once part of the christian congregation attempt to mislead us", that they tell "false accusations" & "lies".

  to combat this, he says that you should "protect your ears from damaging noise by not listening to it", comparing it to wearing "noise canceling headphones".

  That's literally what the GB does for a living, imposing their self-admitted uninspired opinions on millions.

  Convenient word twisting is what the GB men do and they do it more and more these days into trying to cover themselves up.

  How is it possible for an organization that self proclaims itself as god's chosen earthly organization guided by god's holy spirit not being one that is inspired ?

  Lying smooth bullshit " at the proper time " I would call that

  Scripturaly the WTS/JWS has been the evil slave class for disobeying and opposing Jesus 's instructions in how to preach his new Kingdom order.
  

  They created a Gospel that is an act of sin and apostasy through false prophesying which was undoubtedly instigated by these men running their own publishing company.

  The Characterization of most Jehovah's Witnesses

  by Mr.Finkelstein in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  after years of being with jws you start to see a certain developmental characterization of most jws, particularly from elders who have the most power in each congregation.

  .

  the ideology follows along the route of holding up a white sheet over the entire organization, as well each identified individual member (brothers and sisters) which no doubt most jws will inevitably exploit toward themselves.. i personally recognized what hypocrisy was at young age from seeing and being around jws at the kingdom halls and what they were like away from the halls.. there is forced pretentiousness at play which comes out by jws.. having being reminded repetitively that god almighty sent his only begotten son to redeem their sins probably had some relevant connection.. there was no question to the fact that jws are associated with delusions, anxiety, fear, ignorance, subsided with prejudice against others who are not recognized as being active jws .. we are the most righteous chosen ones as it were and that self recognizance goes deep into the jws's consciousness in their daily living.

  You might be right there HowTheBible .

  Seems there are more and more people involved in the JWS religion that are the fringes barely hanging on out of social pressure..

  I still find how the WTS/JWorg psychologically manipulates people which unfortunately causes the death of some of these ones.

  The other bad thing abut this religion is the breaking up of families which has instigated many to commit suicide.

  I think when you are fully immersed in the JWS religion you are being indoctrinated to be arrogant and self righteous, that in itself creates problems.

  Oh the uniqueness of being in god's chosen organization.

  umm umm umm good , that's good brain washing

  The JWorg. GB members dont care they are set for life paid for by the WTS.

  They have full medical and dental coverage, cars to drive, air flights to travel around the world, food and shelter, complete with tennis courts and swimming pools.

  That's really why there is so much lying and corruption in the organization , Money $$$

  What's Wrong with the Watchtower?

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  not sure who wrote this list a while back but i think it is worth a repeat....to be added to or subtracted from or modified...whatever.. what's wrong with the watchtower.

  "overlapping generations" - this teaching makes no sense.

  the word used by jesus is in the singular, not plural form.. .

  The overlapping generation created by the WTS was just another opposing act of apostasy against Jesus and his instructions for preaching his new Kingdom.

  .......and yes many left the organization from this expressed doctrine.

  Good list Vander and another short answer to this posed question could be that this organization was founded upon pretentious hype, tainted and instigated by men who were running their own publishing house.

  From that foundation the roots of corruption were set and flourished from there..

  There is a problematic psychological disposition that is aptly called "being judgmental." It is getting a kick out of making negative moral assessments of other people. It's enhancing your own sense of moral worth by comparisons with the (supposed) lesser moral status of others. It's finding satisfaction in seeing others fail because it shows you are better than they are. People who tend to feel morally inferior feel relief when they see others fail; by comparison that they are not so bad after all. People who lack appreciation of their own potential for moral failure enjoy having their false sense of moral superiority reinforced. Those who are judgmental are invested in one-up-manship.

  What are the signs of being judgmental? Here are five:

  • Making a lot of negative moral evaluations of others.
  • Having a moral rating system that is skewed in your own favor.
  • Jumping to negative moral conclusions about others; being inclined to believe the worst.
  • Moving very quickly from judgments of the form, "This action is morally wrong," to ones of the form, "This person is morally corrupt." (See Don't Be Judgmental, Be Discerning.)
  • Acting as if you can know that what so-and-so did was wrong even though you know much less about the context of so-and-so's action than so-and-so.

  Being judgmental distorts our perception of other people, of ourselves and of what matters most in living a well-lived human life. It feeds on and engenders a lack of sympathetic understanding of others. It is often linked with other related character flaws: hypocrisy, self-righteousness, malice, insensitivity, and the enjoyment of destructive gossip.
