Come on.
Anyone who lives up to the righteous standards of the living God, and who proves himself worthy can be considered a faithful slave. The same applies to being a witness of Jehovah. It is something that is earned not acquired by name only.
Were does it say that in the Bible? Even the NWT says you're wrong
Acts 2:28 And everyone who calls on the name of Jehovah will be saved."?

Guys
Romans 3: 20 Therefore by works of law no flesh will be declared righteous before him, for by law is the accurate knowledge of sin.
21
But now apart from law God?s righteousness has been made manifest, as it is borne witness to by the Law and the Prophets; 22 yes, God?s righteousness through the faith in Jesus Christ, for all those having faith. For there is no distinction. 23 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and it is as a free gift that they are being declared righteous by his undeserved kindness through the release by the ransom [paid] by Christ Jesus. 25 God set him forth as an offering for propitiation through faith in his blood. This was in order to exhibit his own righteousness, because he was forgiving the sins that occurred in the past while God was exercising forbearance; 26 so as to exhibit his own righteousness in this present season, that he might be righteous even when declaring righteous the man that has faith in Jesus.27
Where, then, is the boasting? It is shut out. Through what law? That of works? No indeed, but through the law of faith. 28 For we reckon that a man is declared righteous by faith apart from works of law.NWT
I love when the bible says "no flesh" that the JWs think it is not speaking about them.

Shortly, within our twentieth century, the "battle in the day of Jehovah" will begin against the modern antitype of Jerusalem,
I guess this proves that you have been unworthy for some time now?

FROM: "The Nations Shall Know That I Am Jehovah"?How?

He Comes Who Has the Legal Right"JEHOVAH?S "SWORD" AGAINST "ALL THOSE OF FLESH"

Shortly, within our twentieth century, the "battle in the day of Jehovah" will begin against the modern antitype of Jerusalem, Christendom. The ancient "soil of Israel" pictures the realm in which Christendom has operated. It pictures the standing and relationship that Christendom has claimed to occupy with God by means of his "new covenant" of which Jesus Christ is the mediator. Now is no time for anyone in Christendom to rely on any righteousness on the basis of his own merits and to boast of his own self-righteousness. Jehovah?s "sword" of warfare will cut off from this position that Christendom?s clergy claim for her all religionists who depend upon her having an acceptable standing with God.Can I ask you a QUESTION?
The nations shall know that "The Watchtower" is JEHOVAH?S f aithful and discreet slave?How?
Who got cut off within the "twentieth" century?

there's an article at the official wastetower, entitled "did god condone the slave trade?".
the article tries to justify slavery in the bible by saying that it was different from slavery among other people (non-jews and non-christians).

Wasn't that what GOd gave Adam & Eve originally in the Garden of Eden? Freedom ?
Where does it say that, in the bible? God gave the Law "don't eat of the tree".

I hate the org as much as anyone, but there may be some truth to what was being said
- Is there any sort of slavery that is not "abusive"?
How about the serfs?
Adam and Eve had it pretty good.

you knew what things the jws are wrong about, and did not praticipate in them, or propagate them (there would be no reprisal from the boe or other jws if you did this).
your family and friends would treat you the same if you were a jw or not.
i am wondering who would be compelled by some inner flame to leave jws even if you could stay and believe or behave how you wanted.

Being very left-wing and socialist in my views, I think I would have found it impossible to leave if the Society had been a little more charitable in terms of feeding the poor, health care and educating the under privileged. I could that if I had found myself running a charitable hospital in Africa I would have continued in it. But no encouragement to get educated or charity with the WTB&TS.
You say you are left-wing. This is an area that left and right can agree. It's just that the bible says that believers should be charitable, not their governments. I don't think it is the governments job to be charitable with my money, I like to determine where my money goes. The really strange thing is that the WTB&TS thinks that it is the governments Job, not the churches, they think that Gods government will be charitable to them. By not being charitable themselves they can blame the governments of the world for all the world's problems, not themselves.

Like any work based religion, the only people that would stay, are the people that think they are righteous enough to please God with thier works.
