  So the GB has admitted that God does not communicate with them. Is there any other religion or person that God speaks to?

  wt ​february 2017 par.12, p.26:.

  " the governing body is neither inspired nor infallible.

  therefore, it can err in doctrinal matters or in organizational direction.

  If an Organization claims that GOD speaks to them, or directs them, its an outright 100% fraud.

  If a person claims that God speaks to him, he should be mentally deluded or an Outright fraud.

  What do scriptural contradictions convey?

  by venus in

  any book that claims to be god’s word should have the minimum qualification of clarity.

  if any of its verses are open to many interpretations, it cannot be god’s word.

  god can easily be crystal clear as traffic police who puts traffic signals (red means stop, green means start …etc.

  Am going nuts with this:

  Proverbs 26:

  4 Do not answer the stupid one according to his foolishness, So that you do not put yourself on his level.

  5 Answer the stupid one according to his foolishness, So that he does not think he is wise.

  Believers: How do you know your view of your chosen holy book is the correct one?

  don't start fighting, darlings.

  i am genuinely curious.

  after all i was a jobo 50 years and thought the wbt$ was 100% correct.. i ask this because i see that, for example, christian denominations (or whatever), likely have differing interpretations of the same writing.

  If GOD intended to communicate with humans, it would be a very open, irrefutable, undeniable form of crystal clear communication, for all generations, in a manner understandable by all the cultures of the world unanimously.

  Why would he want to communicate to the Middle East herdsmen, during some ancient times, in a local language, when there was no electricity even?

  For Christians: What do you think about an Armagedon and the Afterlife

  by John Davis in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i don't mean for anyone to get into argument over this, i just want to hear what people believe.i hope that no one will mock or argue with someone else about their beliefs, i know that i won't in this topic.. i still believe in a christian god, not what jws believe, but believe that there has to be something after this life.

  i am not sure about how armageddon would go, would it be like how evangelicals believe with a rapture or timing or anything, though i still believe in a form of armageddon.

  i do think that all good people will go to heaven but i don't believe in a hell.

  I don't really want to hear from people who don't believe in any form of the afterlife just want to hear from people who believe in a form of the afterlife from an Abrahamic Faith's teachings.

  Sorry to see that you are still not open minded and are deceiving yourself.

  Thank GOD (if it really exists) that I did pioneering only once during my 11 years as a JW. Looking back, I am so happy that I did only the bare minimum FS per month. (Around 5 hours)

  Other than that I don't regret having wasted much time in it. I did offend a lot of christian friends/relative though, accusing them that they are worshiping the devil. That's what I regret.

  i left the organization.

  my awakening was this month of july, the first week of july.

  i couldn't answer my own questions about the organization or the doctrines, i couldn't understand the prophecies, i couldn't figure quite well what i was feeling.

  In my experience, I am more happy now than I was a JW. Reason being, I made it clear that all religions are nothing but scams.

  Does Christianity Promote Self Hatred?

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i think that christianity's teachings pose a very unproductive world view and are a danger to our survival.

  their teachings that man is sinful and worthy of death and in need of a savior to rescue him and free him of his sinful tendencies or else feel the wrath of god.

  these things that condemn man as sinful are his own powerful drives given to him at conception which he now must deny due to indoctrination and consign to his shadow(jungian).

  Obviously, it does. Jesus told to hate oneself (and his family) and come after him.

  i was at a mall trying on shoes and this old man is in a wheelchair near me.

  says how he thought those shoes were sharp and he had never worn brown shoes before and that he is 104 years old.

  i said no way and asked what year he was born.

  Smiddy:

  Lazarus died he paid the price for Adams disobedience ,sin.

  He was resurrected to life ,so by all accounts he should be free of the Adamic sin that condemned all of humanity to death so he should still be alive walking around among us right ?

  This is what I asked the dubs when I woke up and before I got disassociated. Only got blank stares. I still ask the same to any JW or a christian that I come across

  As per Bible's sin redemption formula, Lazarus should be alive today as a living example of resurrection and eternal life. All the scientists of the world should have experimented on Lazarus and unanimously agreed that his cells replicate themselves perfectly, with anti aging properties and there is no way he could die. Lazarus should have been given an accommodation in the Watchtower suites and should give Public talks all around the world, about his resurrection testimony and his enormous life experiences for 2017 years or so...(Unless other christian denominations snatch him)
