  WT Study Article Nov. 23, 2014--Adam understood "day" to be 24 hours

  by Cadellin in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  interesting admission in today's wt: adam may have understood "day" (as in "in the day you eat from it, you will positively die") to be a literal 24-hour period.

  i don't think the wt has ever said this before; the usual emphasis is that jah meant it as a figurative day, a day from his standpoint which is 1,000 years (and the article does state that, later).. however, if adam understood god's warning to be carried out in a 24 hour period, and god did nothing to alleviate that, then who did the lying?

  actually, regardless of adam's understanding, the question still stands but moving toward an admission of the use of day in that context to be 24-hours only makes the question even more valid.

  yes. Satan's words came true but what god said failed to come true. According to what the bible says about lying, jah is in the wrong. WT would have you believe otherwise when actually reading the passage tells you what really happened. Anything the WT says about the 24 hour day in the bible is pure BS and speculation. No one can know what a day meant, either literal or figurative, at that time anyway.

  Reflection about Matthew 18:1-4

  by Mr Fool in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  in matthew 18:1-4: who is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?.

  1. is it an open-minded little child who is still free from opinions and beliefs?.

  2. or a little child with the same opinions, denials and convictions as any hard core jw?.

  Oh Irony of ironies: Googling for a problem caused by the WT and getting a solution from JW.org :-(

  i have to share this with you.. after leaving the borg i had to concentrate to solve so many personal problems (financial, child custody, etc.

  ) that it left me with a poor social life.

  i just didn't have the nerve/time to make new friends.

  i think it is a little bait and switch because once you're in the religion and you have the same question, they'll probably tell you to only have acquaintances with people in the organization.

  God is not genocidal

  by mistified in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so at the meeting a few weeks ago the speaker was having a talk about inactive people and then he went on about how people think the god of the old testament was cruel and genocidal.

  he then said that god and did not commit genocide because everything he did was for a reason.

  i was shocked at how stupid that saying was.

  The connection was that inactive ones in the congregation might listen to people from a church (or another religion) that says the the God of the old testament was cruel and stuff like that. yep really stupid

How can you not think he is he commited genocide if he flooded the entire earth? crazy how Jws cannot see this. Do you think God was genocidal?
