  Reference for WT article.

  by Lostwun in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  awhile back someone posted a pic of the rank/ order of command within the org.

  it started with a picture of earth and god sitting on his throne, then the gb body members sitting at there table, then the elders underneath them and then the r&f and so forth.. no mention of jesus in that photo.

  could someone familiar with the article that it came out of provide me with the reference please?.

  I remember that pic and saved it to my computer, can't remember the date though. I think most witnesses would just say the man on the throne is Jesus not Jehovah to over come the issue.

  Two interesting places in the Bible, Bethel and Megiddo.

  by Crazyguy in

  2. bible

  first if one looks into the place bethel this is where the king of israel sets up golden calves and tells his people here is your god's go here and to dan to worship.

  he didn't want his people going all the way down to jerusalem.

  he also made his own priests again to take worship away from jerusalem and it's priests the levites.

He didn't want his People going all the way down to Jerusalem. He also made his own priests again to take worship away from Jerusalem and it's priests the levites. The other area is the place called Megiddo also know for the famous place called Armageddon. What's interesting about this place is I can find no evidence of an Israelite or Jewish army ever winning a battle at Megiddo. Josiah supposedly went their and was killed battling the Egyptian king Neco.

  So I guess my point to this is we used to all worship in a organization that's head quarters is named Bethel after a place the Bible claims was a place of false worship. And this great war at Armageddon that is to be fought is mentioning a place that the great god of the Jews never won at. Yet the Egyptian God was victorious on several occasions. Interesting.

  By the Rivers of Babylon Exhibit of Yahudu Tablets

  by kepler in

  2. bible

  has anyone noticed, commented or reported on the exhibit that opened in jerusalem: the yahudu tablets from babylon chronicling the daily life of judean exiles in babylon.

  about 100 of them translated.

  part of the private david sofer collection.. the announcements indicate that the earliest of the set dates to 572 bc and that they show how exile wasn't so bad.

  Interesting I'll check them out, there's another set of tablets found that we're of recordings of transaction etc by a banking family, these show Jerusalem wasn't destroyed in 607 and yes Babylon survived for many centuries after it's fall in 539. Its also note worthy that Cyrus took the city with out a fight unlike what's portrayed by the Borg.

  There are a lot of ones leaving now, people fed up with the do more your never good enough mentality. People sick of being with mates that don't treat them right etc. So the numbers of those leaving are ever increasing I believe.. But it's also a social network that most in rely on. It is also important that most still don't go out side the box to get information so their slaves to what the Borg says and teaches. It will be a slow decline.

  Evolution and Atheism - please help

  by Fernando in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  not being familiar with either, my question is:.

  what is the relationship between evolution and atheism?.

  i'd love to hear from anyone and everyone, and also from any perspective.. without limiting the conversation in any way, i would of course also appreciate comments that are simple, clear, direct and correct (as i don't have the capacity to do a phd in evolution or atheism)..

  Once I realised that the two pairs of chromosomes less that we have from apes got that way because they we're fused together by a mutation not design, the next step ones atheism.

  Talk on "Reaching Out"-Only What BOE Thinks Matters

  by Simon Templar in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  for the “living as christians” section of the workbook, “are you reaching out?” talk (15 min), the bethelite gave this talk at the meeting.

  he totally departed from the subject matter which is the watchtower of september 15, 2014, pages 3-6. he was so far off the reservation, it wasn't funny.

  here are a few highlights of what was said: 1) if any brother asked why they haven’t been appointed, and wants to know if there is a problem or condition that exists, that brother is too “presumptuous” and therefore, can’t be used.

  Actually Rutherford sat in as a judge for four days while the real judge was out of town. He got to keep the title.

  The Bread Illustration (Feb 16 Broadcast) - Massive Contradiction

  by fizzle in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so... bro flodin puts poison onto the first loaf of bread and says that this pictures someone "sinning against the holy spirit".

  he then puts the bread into the trash can stating that jehovah completely discards anyone "sinning against the holy spirit"... meaning they cannot ever be forgiven...he says that the pharisees "sinned against the holy spirit" because they denied indisputable evidence of the operation of jehovah's holy spirit displayed by jesus... therefore jehovah would completely discard them... no way back for them.. fast forward a little... we have the bible character stephen...acts 6:8 says: now stephen, full of divine favor and power, was performing great wonders and signs among the people.so stephen was showing indisputable evidence of the operation of jehovah's holy spirit.now we come to the bible character paul (saul)... he was a pharisee.paul would have seen stephen in action... witnessing the indisputable evidence of the operation of jehovah's holy spirit first hand!yet paul not only waged war against all christians but he personally approved the killing (stoning) of stephen.according to the bread illustration paul should have been discarded by jehovah at this point for "sinning against the holy spirit"... he would have been put in the trash can... no way back at all...but what happened according to the bible?

  jesus appeared to him on the road to damascus... he became one of the most zealous apostles in bible history with jehovah's full support!so what on earth is the bread illustration all about?

  Look the Pharisees we're Gods appointed Chanel and Jesus came along and challenged them. They had the right to according to GB logic to disfellowship Jesus form the temple which they did. Jesus was being presumptous, not meek, not a true sheep. He was taking followers away from the Pharisees so he was an apostate. Jehovah creates evil, hates children, kills people, is jealous, petty, judgmental, kills more people even children. Jesus was against all these things and spoke about it. Jesus was a true Apostate and the Pharisees had the same attitude back then as the GB do today.
