Do not make unnecessary rules. If elders make unnecessary rules, they will create a burden for others. Brother Juraj Kaminský recalled what took place during the ban in former Czechoslovakia: “After the responsible brothers and many elders were arrested, some of those taking the lead in congregations and circuits began prescribing rules of conduct for the publishers, making lists of dos and don’ts.” Jehovah has not given us authority to make personal decisions for others. Someone who makes needless rules is not protecting his brother’s safety—he is trying to become the master of his brother’s faith.—2 Cor. 1:24.

The many lies within the Jehovah's Witnesses religion

by Finkelstein in

jws think their organization is the most honest and righteous christian based faith in the world solemnly chosen by god because of that.

i thought it would interesting to evaluate the many persistent lies the jws propagate from the top leaders down.

first up the many lies and biblicaly unsupported doctrines made by the wts own leaders such as pin pointing the exact year and time of christ's return and establishing his throne in heaven, once in 1874 then 1914. .

Awake! 1969 May 22 p.15

"If you are a young person, you also need to face the fact that you will never grow old in this present system of things. Why not? Because all the evidence in fulfillment of Bible prophecy indicates that this corrupt system is due to end in a few years... Therefore, as a young person, you will never fulfill any career that this system offers. If you are in high school and thinking about a college education, it means at least four, perhaps even six or eight more years to graduate into a specialized career. But where will this system of things be by that time? It will be well on the way toward its finish, if not actually gone!"

Notice how this was presented as a FACT: you WILL never grow old in this present system of things.

ALL the evidence in fulfillment of Biblical prophecy indicates that this corrupt system would end in a few years.

Did God really say that . . .
Does God really not approve of same-sex marriage?
Does God really not want you to celebrate Christmas and birthdays?
Does your God really expect you to refuse a blood transfusion?
Does a loving God really expect you to avoid association with disfellowshipped loved ones?’

Not for long and the GB will have to face similar questions in court. Namely, whether it is compatible with human rights to establish such unchristian and inhuman rules.

This WT article meets all conditions of the BITE model. A sect indoctrination session at its finest.

@ Blondie: Thanks for this review.
