"Well now at least they get a ressurection!"
by stuckinarut2 inyes, that is what a witness said after the police shootings and terrible aftermath of violence occurred this week in the usa..... they said that it now gives them a chance to live forever...as if they would not have had that opportunity if they had not been tragically killed..... of course according to witness teachings, the contradictory thing is that if the big a had come a day before, then those same people would have been killed by jehovah because they were not his worshipers.....

Is the Bible God's word? Help please.....
by Freeandclear inso real quick, i know this comes up now and then and i've looked over some of the posts from the past but here's the thing.. when i was a jw i drank all the cool aid, i was 100% and so i have all my own arguments (from the jw's) for why the bible is inspired.
i no longer believe this but i'd really like to read something that is pretty much 100% academic on this subject.
i want to read what scholars have to say about the authenticity of the bible and it's claim at being the inspired word of god.

Google Yahweh and read Wikipedia on the name. Then google the city named Ugarit. Then google the God named El. You'll will start to see the connection. Google the book of Amenope. Google the writings of the Enuma Elish. Google Mesopotamian flood stories.

It won’t be much longer now.
by Tameria2001 ina couple weeks back my husband got a phone call from his brother, whom he hasn’t spoken to in nearly 17 years.
well i take that back, he did speak to him at the family reunion, asking him to leave.
my husband basically told him to f off, he would leave when he’s darn good and ready, but he didn’t use the word darn.

Cops in the USA are not trained properly how to defuse situation and kill people way to much. Even thier training in shooting people and thier weapons bullets are to kill not to injure. It's a shoot first mentality. The whole system here needs to be changed and cops retrained and the system turned upside down to start over. Cops in Europe don't kill people like this not even close!

Revelation 5:9,10 and the 144,000
by Darkknight757 ini hesitate to ask this question.
during some recent research on youtube i came across a few videos explaining how watchtower manipulated revelation 5:10. revelation 5:10 "you have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our god,and they will reign on the earth.”" -niv.
the nwt13 renders this verse: 10 and you made them to be a kingdom+ and priests to our god,+ and they are to rule as kings+ over the earth.”.

It's also important to note that the scriptures in the greek state that they are not kings but only priests and they reign but do not rule. This is a play on the word in duetoranomy where it say they Israel will be a holy nation a kingdom of priests Or something to that effect.

Does the book of Ezekiel hint that the God of the Jews is not who they think he is?
by EndofMysteries inezekiel 28 talks about the "king of tyre" and in chap 28 starting vs 13 what he is made of.
it calls him a cherub and also lists these stones he was adorned with (here is something interesting....), "every precious stone adorned you:.
carnelian, chrysolite and emerald, topaz, onyx and jasper, lapis lazuli, turquoise and beryl.

Interesting , one thing I have noticed is that just because it's in the bible doesn't mean the original writing was refuring to the same God. Take a look at the book of proverbs, said to be mostly written by Solomon, yet Wallis E Budge dug up writings that were the same yet in Egyptian written by Amenope and found to be several hundred years older. We also know that the original story of the flood involved many gods and the two main gods were Enlil and Enki. Enlil wanted to kill mankind with a flood and Enki saved them by telling a man to save himself and others by building a boat.
It would be interesting to see if there are other writings found out side of the bible talking about these Stones and which gods they relate to.

Bethel Economy
by sp74bb inrevelation 6:6 kjv.
6 and i heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, a measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.. this prophecy starts to be true in south europe bethels..... according to our sources, bethel families have been asked to reduce their food allowance and even been informed that monthly contribution might not be paid.. meantime, one of these branches is sending millions of € every year as donation to other wt structures, not to mention the 7 digit number on their bank account.
bethel members are not blind ;).

Could they be doing this to get ones to leave on the own and by this not have to pay them some kind of welfare later through the government?

I don't understand why thier playing that thier so broke? We know they have made close to a billion dollars in real estate sales and thier still collecting 100 of millions of dollars through donations. This plus they don't have the overhead they once had with them going digital reducing publications etc.

Contempt of court, case in San Diego county really disgusts me!
by Crazyguy inthis case has to be talked about by ever awake jw every apostate everyone.
this case because they refuse to hand over documents the court already knows they have because they handed them over before but heavily redacted, is the icing on the cake!
this case shows thier evil plain and simple.

The one thing they did that really smacks of stupidity is fighting the first ruling. They could of just paid the 13.5 million but now there being fined continually until they turn over the documents and the fines will probably go up. So in thier arrogance they have screwed the pooch, let's hope.
