  The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society’s Publishing Buildings Caption in Brooklyn, New York, is STATING A LIE!!

  by The Truth Shall Set Us FREE! in

  2. bible

  the watchtower deceiving statement being: read the bible, the word of god, every day!

  the watchtower bible and tract society states, with every fiber of its organization and publishing house, that you should not read the bible (not even everyday), without the holy bible additionally being accompanied by and explained by the watchtower bible and tract societys own publications.. the watchtower society and its witnesses claim that one can not understand the holy bible without the guidance of the watchtower publications.. the statement on the watchtower publishing building in brooklyn is therefore at best deceiving, lacking an under-title stating that one should not read the bible without the watchtowers additive writings.

  thus the watchtower publishing house is deceiving (lying to) those who read this statement on their building... the watchtower publishing house is already familiar with explanatory subtitles to what they publicize, among others, the subtitles to the watchtower magazine.. the governing body of the watchtower witnesses (whom abuses g-ds holy name), excluded 4 out of the 7 members of the governing body in 1919, with the double vote by their president rutherford, when the watchtower magazines underscore shifted its wording from preaching the kingdom of jesus christ to preaching jehovahs kingdom.

  So when my dentist encourages me to brush three times daily but doesnt make mention of mouthwash, that means he was lying about the brushing part?

  A House Divided Against Itself Falls-Luke 11:17

  that text reminds me of one of a handful of problems peculiar to the ex-jw community.

  second only to the wild beast's internal divisions, is the divided makeup of the ex-jw populace.

  you know the one thing that indicates jehovah's blessing upon the worldwide association of kingdom proclaimers, is not only the continued success of the preaching work, but along with it the unity and love amongst the brothers and sisters.

You know the one thing that indicates Jehovah's blessing upon the worldwide association of Kingdom proclaimers, is not only the continued success of the preaching work, but along with it the unity and love amongst the brothers and sisters. (John 13:35) Pitifully, that same kind of unity and love isn't evident within the ex-JW community. On any given day, this forum has threads that criticize Christians, or attaboy Atheists, badmouth JWs, feel pity for JWs. LOL, for a conglomerate of folks that get off on accusing the WT of flip-flopping, the ex-JW community isnt exactly consistent ya know!

  Then there's the multiple movements within the hive. FreeMinds, Six Screens, Cedars' group the AARP, etc.. All with different agendas and motives. Nobody within their right mind would expect any success unless limited, and I mean very limited if not crippled success by the ex-JW community. It's like Jehovah has confused your languages, or removed the wheels from your chariots.

  To be fair, maybe it's me. Maybe I've been a JW so long that I cant imagine being part of any movement without unity and love amongst ourselves. How do you folks do it?

  There's nothing wrong with the color. If you like the Raiders uniforms which I'm sure you all do as their uniforms are universally loved, then you should love the silver color of this Bible. Don't cut your nose to spite your face ex-JWs.

  You gotta love it. A psuedo-scholar claims Jesus Christ was a fabricated character and all the atheists think they've hit the lottery. Just lookin for any excuse to tickle their own ears.

  What's with all the JWs unleashing the hate!?

  by Julia Orwell in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  most of us here on jwn, while we can get a bit narky at times, can put forth intelligent arguments and sound observations.

  sure we can get bogged down with our opinions, but generally we back up our opinions with examples and evidence, and if someone has a different opinion with examples and evidence, we accept that without recriminations.

  that's what adults do.. so my question is, why in the last week or so, have a couple of posters claiming to be jws come onto this forum and berated, spewed hate and judgement, and in some cases verbally attacked members personally?

  You label me a troll because you cannot challenge the validity of my arguments. Invalidate the messenger, invalide the message.

  Ms.Orwell I recieved your PMs, and I prefer not to open or read them. The reason being, they're Private Messages, and quite frankly such methods of communication make me uncomfortable. To engage in private dialogue is the online equivalent of being in a car alone with someone of the opposite sex which would be inappropriate. There's no telling where the slippery slope of private messaging could lead us. Before you know it we may even exchange cell phone numbers or even worse. So to play it safe, lets keep our discussions in the public square.

  I feel the need to defend myself as a trend I've noticed with the ex-JW community is, you believe this forum belongs to you. However, this forum is in fact open to all that wish to discuss matters peculiar to the WT and subsequently JWs. That said, the hostility that I and other so called JW apologists have recieved, is quite frankly, disturbing and uncalled for. Also, I find it discouraging how when I or again a so called apologist posts on a thread and our post is in harmony with the thread topic, we get bombarded with posts that are not on topic such as questions related to defending 1914 or this or that. It just goes to show that many within the ex-JW community are incapable of defending the positions they supposedly feel so strongly about.

  One last thing I feel the need to stress, it's not that I'm running from any conversations as much as my posting limits are quite limited. If and when my posting privileges are at maximum capacity, I will be posting a lot more. In fact I have some fellow JW apologists planning on registering to make these discussions more even. As far as it being wrong for me to post here because the Slave said so, show me where? If you do have such material, where these commandments? Or suggestions? If what was stated was a suggestion, than I'm not breaking any so called JW protocol. That again demonstrates a problem with the ex-JW community. The Slave makes suggestion, and you swear it was a commandment from God Himself. But more about that later.

  WH, I agree it is a weighty decision and children, nor teenagers should be pressured to do so. They should however be encouraged to make it a goal and the decision should be soley their own.

  There's no Scriptural indicator that one shouldn't be either. Besides, there are several accounts within the Scriptures highlighting examples of young servants of Jehovah. Mostly on the Hebrew side of the Bible prior to baptisms but nonetheless every bit as dedicated to the True God as the Christians mentioned in the CG Scriptures. Also, one can assume Timothy likely got baptized at a young age considering he was trained from infancy and took on leadership roles within the Christian congregation at a young age. It warms my heart to see young people today dedicating themselves to Jehovah and having an active role in His organization.
