There’s no J in Hebrew period! The fact is the old Hebrew language had no vowels that’s why they switched to Aromaic. Vowel points were introduced in the 10 century AD. There’s very little evidence that anyone spoke or wrote Hebrew back in the days previous to the 6th century BC .

The oldest Torah is only 600 years old the oldest manuscripts that could be called the Old Testament are the original Greek Septuagint which was originally only the first 5 books.

Any older manuscripts of Old Testament writtings in Hebrew then the Septuagint were just small fragments of wisdom sayings. Oldest manuscripts of gods name and stories and descriptions of the biblical god are found at Ugarit. His name is El and the stories written their were later used as foundation for some of the stories we read today in the Old Testament.

When I saw this on you tube about her I thought this is fantastic! Then to find out there are even more successful exjw then her on you tube and it’s just plain wonderful. Also over on Reddit someone posted how the countries that have the richest per capita people are also the places we’re the decline of the cult is happening most.

Take this info and add to it the pedophila problems that the cult has and how it’s hitting the mainstream media , this cult has some real problems.

Their not going out of business anytime soon but the stresses on it has become clear and they are reacting. Closing down halls and selling off properties is just one good sign!

Jehovah's Witnesses including its leaders are in the business of lying

by Finkelstein in

......endeavored to create an image of the organization which they are a identifying part of.. when you think about this religious organization and most its social ideological expressions are expressed through lying.

its doctrines are lies and not supported by the bible.. the leaders intentionally twisted doctrines to enhance the proliferation of the literature the wts published, which were a false theology through their interpretation of the bible.

the proclamation that jws are generally good wholesome living honest people.. there is constant endeavor by the people involved to hold up a pretentious veil of honest righteousness identifying the organization and its adherent followers.

I thought as I was waking up that they were just miss guided or a bit delusional but your so right . There have been a few times that it has become clear to me in the last 5 years that they are out and out Liars

Hey Governing Body, if you're not too busy.....

.....can you clarify one of your doctrines for me?.

re chap.

27 p. 178 par.

I can see you ask an elder this question and then watch his eyes roll back into his head and after a small seizure. Look back at you and quickly respond “why do you ask, are you an apostate?”

Active JW's: If asked, can you explain/defend this belief?

by The Fall Guy in

as all jw's and awakened ex-jw's know, the very existence of the religion is dependent on people's belief that the "holy trinity" of the wtbts, the ccojw, and the governing body (aka the organization) were personally selected by god/christ.. 1) mr. rutherford claimed that this divine choosing occurred circa 1919, and that all anointed members were personally chosen by god/christ to be the faithful slave.

2) in 2013 this long-held, "profound scriptural truth" was discarded by apostates in brooklyn (the present-day governing body) when they personally decided that only gb members were chosen by god/christ to be the faithful slave.

(wt july 2013, p.22, par.

There’s scriptures in the Bible that shows clearly that Jesus would pick and organization to represent his wishes in 1919. Unfortunately those evil apostates took that book out of the Bible about the same time the Apocryphal books were taken out. If my memory serves me well the name of the book was, 1 Bullshit and it’s in chapter 6 starting in verse 66 where it is explained in detail.

Was disfellowshipping really sanctioned by God? Please share your honest views according to your Bible views

by Strugglingrsa in

what were the writers of the bible telling christians when they wrote : “stop keeping company with anyone called a brother who is sexually immoral or a greedy person or an idolater or a reviler or a drunkard or an extortioner, not even eating with such a man.” (1 corinthians 5:11) regarding everyone who “does not remain in the teaching of the christ,” we read: “do not receive him into your homes or say a greeting to him.

for the one who says a greeting to him is a sharer in his wicked works.” (2 john 9-11.

Crazyguy

Doesn’t Paul backtrack on what he wrote in 1 corthinthians in 2 Corinthians? As far a 1 John yeah the Christians really we’re pushing their new god Jesus and anyone that didn’t believe in their new god was to be avoided.

My thought would be never deny belief in Jesus around Christians as far a Corinthians if your not doing these specific things then you should be left alone but let’s not forget is that many of the teachings of Paul were either forgeries or were contradictions of what Jesus supposedly taught.

quote: "jonathan cahn on the jim bakker show nov.12th, 2012. cahn uses detective work to figure out that jesus was born on the first day of the jewish new year, known as nissan 1, in 6 b.c.

compelling correlation of jewish feast days and their foreshadowing of the life and work of jesus.".

Considering when the count of the people was ordered and when Herod died there a 12 year different between the gospels Luke and Mathew. One would think it would be pretty clear when the son of god was on the earth yet they can’t even get that right.

It’s all bullshit smoke and mirrors. Thier claiming over 2 million new baptized in 8 years even with half of them leaving in that amount of time you would still need to be building Kingdom Halls like crazy. Total bullshit.

This is a cult that has lied about numbers for over a 100 years. 1914 was when Armageddon was going to take place, no wait that when Russell predicted wwI. Now Armageddon going to take place in 1918 no stay alive til 1925 no I meant 1975 no we didn’t say that. Lies after lies after lies!! How can anyone take their number of members seriously?!
