  Try this on a JW

  by Saltheart Foamfollower in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this is not intended to expose wrong teachings etc, just to promote thinking and asking questions.. 1) ask if imperfection and death automatically follow sin.

  jw will answer yes.. 2) ask if satan is imperfect then.. 3) sit back and watch them try to work out what the right answer should be.. sf.

  When I have tried to question beliefs even subtly, JWs always go very defensive and I don't feel as if I've achieved anything. It usually needs to start with them questioning something or at least wondering about alternatives. My post was about using a line of questioning that they haven't already been given an opinion on. Hopefully it could start off an internal process which would lead to them genuinely questioning doctrine. Or not in most cases, but if it helps some, it's worth trying (and is low risk)

  The Boyfriend Pillow! - The Governing Body's worst nightmare!!??

  https://www.boyfriendpillow.com.au/.

  with all the focus on the new anti-masturbation vide telling all bethelites not to sleep inappropriately with a pillow, surely this has to be the very item that will send the gb into fits of despair?

  The congregation should say that the card belongs to them (anyone remember when they had to be signed) but the information can be shared with you. Of course, you may find a secretary who isn't aware of this.

  This letter has appeared after many congregations have already had a resolution to donate the money. Not that it would have made any difference to the vote, but does that mean technically the money can't go into the WWW?

  When Will Jehovah`s Witnesses Appoint A Woman As A Governing Body Member.? It`s Long Overdue !

  by smiddy3 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  jehovah himself gives the saying "the women telling the good news are a large army" psalms 68 : 11 coupled with the fact that a good portion of women partake of the emblems and wine at the annual memorial celebration.. identifying themselves as part of the 144000 that are taken from the earth to rule with christ jesus in the heavens.. isn`t it about time they were recognized for their contributions and given the fact that gods word the bible clearly states that 144,000 of anointed are to be taken from the earth which many women are a large part of.?.

  revelation ch.14 :4 could be argued that they are not lesbians { "these are the ones who do not defile themselves with women ,in fact they are virgins, etc,etc.}.

  i wonder just how many men who claim to be of the anointed have not defiled themselves with women and are virgins.?.

  Hidden message in current public watchtower

  by Saltheart Foamfollower in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the current public edition of the watchtower - 2018 issue 1 - is entirely on one theme - is the bible relevant today.

  about half of the magazine is on 3 articles on how the bible can be practical.

  they are "avoid problems" "resolve difficulties" and "cope successfully".

  Hi. The current public edition of the watchtower - 2018 issue 1 - is entirely on one theme - is the bible relevant today. About half of the magazine is on 3 articles on how the bible can be practical. They are "avoid problems" "resolve difficulties" and "cope successfully". On page 7 these are listed and it leaped out at me that the initial letters of these three things are a r c ! Have a look online (or if someone could post the relevant part of page 7). Coincidence or a message hidden by a mole?
