  A question I have had since I was in the cult

  by mickbobcat in

  so anointed ones go to heaven and rule with christ.

  men and women on earth can be of the anointed.

  so does that mean woman are tranny's who are of the anointed?

  Women are not permitted to speak in the congregation, yet they can be anointed. Death Qualifies women to rule with Christ in heaven (As per WT and its not my opinion) in the Kenny Rogers crowd

  Progressing in “JW” terms means showing Unquestionable faith and dedication to the cult every day, progressively. That means shunning your family members too, in case if the need arises.

  Don’t fall for it. When I was a JW the elders would come to me and say that I am not Progressing because of my low FS hours (3 or 4 hrs per month). I always had many doubts and most of the JW beliefs were either ridiculous or too good to be true.
  
  Thank Jehovah, I never progressed and finally quit

  Watchtower Disparages the Bible

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i'm looking for wts quotations that contrast with ii timothy 3:15-16 whereby they downplay scripture.. here is one from way back..

  "...people cannot see the divine plan in studying the bible by itself...if he then lays them [scripture studies] aside and ignores them and goes to the bible alone, though he has understood his bible for ten years, our experience shows that within two years he goes into darkness.

  on the other hand, if he had merely read the scripture studies with their references, and had not read a page of the bible, as such, he would be in the light at the end of the two years, because he would have the light of the scriptures," (watchtower, sept. 15, 1910, p. 298).

  The Bible says that the snake talked to Eve. Period. Even an 8th grader would laugh at it

  WT (and other denominations) interpret it as Satan Talking to Eve.

  That’s why they say that reading the Bible by yourself is dangerous. To cover up the silliness, cruelty, Ignonrance and Barbarity – found in the Bible - to suit their agenda

  by pistolpete in

  remember when after a circuit assembly the assembly overseer would come out right before the end of the assembly and make a special announcement;.

  "brothers, we have a financial deficit of $5,000 dollars for our circuit assembly.

  keep in mind that we have utilities and other expenses that need to be met.

  Do you think that the Christ will disown us before his Father? (Mark 8:38)

  Seems you still believe in this Jesus Story. IMHO, do a lot of unbiased reaearch about this Biblical Jesus and you would be surprised to know that most likely he never Existed and atleast he never performed those miracles as said in the Bible and its all a myth

  You would find a lot of peace when you know the truth. The truth would set you free

  the Christian could consider changing his employment so as not to violate his conscience.

  So these GB goons are thinking that its so easy to change Employment. What an arrogance and Ignorance of these Luxury living, easy life brats.

  I wrote my Disassociation letter because prior to that when I started to doubt, my JW frriends (So called) challenged me that I don’t have the guts to write a Disassociation letter and lose eternal Life.

  On the day of my Dis association announcement, I told my active JW wife to Skip the meeting. I Dialed in and heard the good news announcement of my Dis association.

  A great sense of relief and true happiness, since then

  by Kosonen in

  2. friends

  did you know that noah entered the ark in the end part of november and also that jesus' followers flead jerusalem around 25th of november 66ce?.

  could it be that a significant group of jehovah's witnesses would begin to flee to the "wilderness" in the end of november?

  revelation 12 speaks about a flight of a symbolic woman to a wilderness.

  Do Jehovah's Witnesses interpret the Bible properly?

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  do jehovah's witnesses interpret the bible properly?.

  jehovah's witnesses see the bible as an organizational book which only the faithful and discreet slave (currently 8 men headquartered in warwick new york) can interpret properly.

  the faithful slave was first appointed in brooklyn in 1919 and given the exclusive right and ability to understand and teach the bible properly.

  What is Prophecy? Foretelling of future events.

  In my opinion, none have the Ability to foretell the future. If so, the 2004 Tsumani that killed 200K would have been averted.

  What ever is termed as prophecy - by any religion - is a fraud. Because it’s only people who write those religious texts, claiming to have come from god.

  And interpreting that fraud is fraud based on fraud.

  The "Regular Pioneer" title has now become a total joke

  by pistolpete in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we just had our co visit a few weeks ago.

  apparently, he was encouraging all who could to regular pioneer, to at least try it out for a year.

  because of this, we had a few people in our hall become one.. so this weekend we were on zoom service, and the sister that was just appointed was talking about it.

  This whole concept of preaching and Pioneering and Field service, is a Joke if we give it some thought.

  Do we go and preach that gravity Exists? Do we go and preach that the sun Exists and that the moon Exists? NOPE. That would be a Joke, since everyone on earth feels gravity, can see or feel the sun and can see the moon. All of us were taught about the sun and moon and gravity, a few years in our school. That’s it. And we believe it still because we see them every day.

  Then why on earth does, a god needs to be preached. That he exists, that he is good, that he is Almighty, that be performed a whole lot of miracles in Middle East... Some 2000 years ago and remains silent since then and Expects us to go and preach about him now.
  

  Even More absurd is the time reporting of the JWs. Do we track and report time about how much time we spend with our loved ones, or do we track the time when we tell others about the good things our father did to us. ?
  

  It’s all Non- sense.
