There have always been mixed messages sent from both the
platform and in the literature and also in the bible.
When there is an increase in bible studies and baptisms,
they say it proves Jehovah is speeding up the ingathering work because the end
is so near. When there is a decrease or lull in the numbers, they say the end
is near because the bible says in the last days, the love of the greater number
will cool off.
They demand obedience because they claim they are Jehovah’s
spirit directed organization yet when time bears out that their guidance via
their prophesies and doctrines are full of holes, they claim to be imperfect
men and they discontinue printing books that are full of their erroneous teachings.
Books that millions of JW’s spread across the globe and studied as if their
lives depended on it.
They admonished us to be specific when we pray and to pray
incessantly and then they’ll claim that Jehovah only gives you strength to
endure trials and doesn’t change outcomes. If that’s the case, why the need for
specific details, why not just ask for strength and leave it at that?
When an unemployed
brother turns down a job offer because he’d have to work on meeting nights and
another more suitable job eventually comes along, they say it’s because Jehovah
made it happen even though odds are another job would have come along
eventually anyway. It happens all the time to unemployed non-Witnesses and
Jehovah supposedly isn’t even helping them. How do any of them survive or ever
have anything good happen to them?
The Bible say’s “Woe to the pregnant woman in the last days….pray
that your flight will not be in the winter”
This makes it sound as if one prays about a matter, even the arrival of a huge long awaited event such as Armageddon
is negotiable. It makes it sound as if
Jehovah might be willing to adjust the time of year that it takes place. The
thing is, Jehovah should already know that Armageddon in winter would bring
additional hardship to people without them having to pray about it.
Anyway, the point is, anyone who thinks too much or expects
to make sense of it all is in for much frustration and a huge let down and will eventually think him or herself right out of The Truth..
