  So, The Entire Governing Body Could Go Apostate?

  by metatron in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i made an effort to plow thru the latest bullsh*t from the wts in regard to the faithful slave, etc.

  i must admit that, their latest set of interpretations make more sense than formerly.

  they seem to have done away with 4-6 different 'comings' of jesus and they pretty much stuck everything in the future, so they are off the hook in the present.

  'The Entire Governing Body Could Go Apostate'

  Could? The Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses are already apostate especially since their founder broke away from the Catholic Church.

  If one of the "Anointed" is Disfellowshipped and is Reinstated does he or she lose their "anoited" status?

  one of my professors is a jw scholar.

  he has written dozens of books and has been on the news and tv shows for years.

  his name is firpo carr and he is friends with michael jackson's family.

  Doesn't this mean that any person can become of the annointed since there's no stigma engaging them to the role? Worst Of all, there is no proof.

  That is why any time anyone ever criticizes their teachings, and, or propaganda they view it as a threat. The uncanny Russelites are at an inch to, and extremely paranoid

  You are correct. Russelites and their human leaders known as The Faithful and Wise Servant should be frightened because the internet is really being used to help eager seekers to gain knowledge about the WatchTower Corporation.

  How many JWs are genuinely in "good standing"?

  by slimboyfat in

  an interesting question arose from my earlier thread:.

  we all know that many jws do stuff that would get them disfellowshipped, but never get caught.

  but how many jws do you think there really are who have never kept any disfellowshipping "offense" secret?

  To be truthful, one sister in our congregation secretly watches horror serials. I know because she needed me for assistance on her chines and I saw the classic "Carrie" sitting on her television stand. And you'd never guess she is the number uno pioneer in our hall.

  Not really interested this year. But while I was still in agreement with the phony Russelites, I actually went trick-or-treating with my brother. We both knew it was wrong, but we really wanted some candy. We dressed up in regular clothes because we had no costumes. I actually put socks on my hands to trick people into believing I actually had a costume. We both agreed we would never tell anyone. We sure enjoyed the candy.

  "one of the bible study was listening and singing the song by jason mraz titled lucky with the chorus going like this;.

  quote.

  'i'm lucky i'm in love with my best friend.. lucky to have been where i have been.. lucky to be coming home again.. lucky we're in love in every way.. lucky to have stayed where we have stayed.. lucky to be coming home someday..'.

  Yep. Yahweh is that phrase that definitely gets you noticed by any Russelite or Bethelite. It baffles jot how they feel that no one can be sure it was JEHOVA or YAHVEH. Yet they oppose anyone who prefers Yahweh, even when it is more likely God's true name.

  Their website states: "Jehovah's Witnesses do not recognize any human as their leader." However, they continually use that thirteenth verse of Hebrews to mean the Governing Body. I don't think it meant being obedient to 'religous leaders'. I always thought he was talking about secular authorites instead.

  LOL. Notice how Stand For Pure Worship didn't go into any relative detail about this unconsciousness of spiritual obligation.

  He's really starting to soften up in his posts.

  A publisher of the good news is someone who distributes literature for the WatchTower Corporation. In essence, it has nothing to do with printing books.
