ROYAL COMMISSION: ARE JWS TAUGHT TO REFRAIN FROM SWEARING ON THE BIBLE OR NOT? JW.ORG PLEASE EXPLAIN!

by steve2 in

during yesterday's rc proceedings (wednesday 5th august 2015), one of the victim's lawyers questioned mr vincent toole, the jw organization's legal counsel for the australian branch office.

she asked him why at least two of the jw elders who gave evidence last week refused to swear on the bible.

mr toole appear puzzled by her question and said he did not know.

Just another fantastic example of how f**ked up this org is. The men in very high positions of responsibility don't know their own written policy. LOL! Stupidity abounds in this org. and what really haunts me is that I was part of it, having to call the 'legal department' before we could make a decision on child molesters! Holy s#*t! Are these guys in Australia calling the 'legal department' to find out if they can swear on the bible? When this is all finished, I hope that they are swearing AT the bible!

Is Geoffrey W. Jackson a "ringer"? Was he sent coached how to testify? Is this a setup? I think so.

by Wasanelder Once in

if you have heard g. jackson speak you can tell that he is smooth.

he is a good speaker with a commanding voice.

i think the gb knew this was going to happen and prepped him to testify.

Hell no GJ will not take the stand. He know what happened to his "brother" when he was 'hailed before the court' a couple of thousand years ago!

Sir82

The JWs view the Bible as a sort of "dictionary of proof texts".

You said it exactly the way it is Sir82. Even when I was a gong ho jw, I was always puzzled at how often the same core of about 75 scriptures appeared and reappeared in all the publications. They were quoted to support the doctrine of the wtbts not quoted to give insight or knowledge. "Proof texts" is what we called them, not bible texts. I had a Mormon guy tell me once that the witnesses use the same 75 scriptures about 80% of the time to support our teachings.

So although JW's may believe that "all scripture is inspired by god", they definitely believe that only 75 are "beneficial for teaching, for reproving, and for setting things straight".

Russell's sources for his ideas - a diagram of what Apocalypse Delayed Ch. 1

by ILoveTTATT2 in

jw
friends

according to apocalypse delayed, russell got many of his ideas from a conference called albury park.. .

here are the sources of his ideas for eschatology:.

and lastly, here are the sources for the ideas that jw's claim make them "the truth": rejection of the trinity, hell, and the inmortal soul..

JW Hatred and Elders Apathetic Manners Drove Me Here! Why are JWs fooled in to thinking the WTS Cares?

by Judas Maccabee in

for years i've been screwed with by some very bad people, people satan would kick out of his organization because even the devil might let up on evil just to allow someone to catch their breath.

with the jwism's bad people move up while good people move down or leave the kingdom hall for good.

i was talking with two elders who said "you know if you return to the kingdom hall, jehovah will bless you and these people will stop screwing with you.

Will the Governing Body decree that Starbucks is forbidden??

by DATA-DOG in

it's bad enough that jws waste valuable, life-saving minutes getting coffee, but now this happens.... http://www.starbucks.com/careers/college-plan.

so many dubs work at starbucks!

this is a dangerous situation that must be from satan!

eyeuse2badub

There will soon be a 'cartoon' video showing brothers and sisters 'thinking' about that $4 cup of coffee at Starbucks, but then rejecting the idea and instead putting the $4 into the contribution box at the kh to "further kingdom interests" (so that the gb can instead enjoy a $4 cup at Starbucks).

Did the society official track each member of the 144,000?

by Bob Loblaw in

when i left witness land in the early 90's, i remember hearing that out of 144,000 anointed members that there were only 8 to 9 thousand left and then the end will come.. i'm suddenly curious.

the jw organization is one that puts emphasis on tracking, i.e., regular meeting attendance, current standing, field service hours, territory tracking, return visits, etc.

therefore, did the society ever try to track each and every member of the 144,000?

eyeuse2badub

The gb knows everything about the CO's, COBE's, pioneers, MS's, missionaries, etc, but nothing about the so called"brothers of christ"? Friggin ridiculously stupid.
