Hey Guyferna!
God is a free thinker. Yah, he is! I'll prove it too. God says its ok to commit adultery if you want to. He says that anarchy is ok too. He also said that you could explore the same sex relationships, after all sex is only for your gratification and no other purpose. That's why the animals have sex right? He wants you to make big mistakes, after all its your body. He wants you to choose good or bad…either way it ok with him. He loves rapist and Satanist. Wait a minute, back up…I'm sorry I just confused Jehovah God with Satan. See God is an Intelligent thinker not a free thinker. God only wants smart people not people who want to choose to be retards and make big mistakes. He does give us the choice to do bad or good. But, I remember that he said choose good for life and bad for death. Hey, its up to us. No one is putting a gun to your head to stay a Witness.
If God is a free thinker it wouldn't matter if you are bad or good. But he isn't, he can't even lie ("it is imposible for God to lie"). You know what…if God wanted us to be this so called "free thinker" everyone would have there own ideas and we'd be no better than the confused churches of Christendom. The bible says in 1Corinthintians that we have to be "one" and "unified in the same mind and teachings". The only choice we have is to do good or bad. If we choose bad, prepare to reap its consequences!
Fact: 1.There is good and bad in all religions
2. so was the case in bible times.
3. Judas (one of the 12 Disciples) became apostate and betrayed Jesus.
4. Christianity although had one bad apple got rid of it and was still God's organization. Judas was no longer a
5. Members of the Governing Body were disfellowshiped for their apostate ideas.
6. JWs celebrated Christmas wore crosses and went to war. They also saw then that it was bad and reformed.
7. Christiandom's churches found wrong teachings and kept them. They are men pleasers. If one commits serious sin that's influential, they keep them and transfer them to other churches and cover up their mistakes to their congregations.
8.JWs keep the organization clean and keep a unified teaching that is based on the bible. They also use bible aides such as the watchtower that don't replace the bible just help us understand it.
9. JWs is the only organization that is know for their door to door world wide and unified teaching. Other religions that do so are not successful and fully recognized.
10. Most JWs that leave the truth don't back to other organizations because they know the false teachings that they have.
The truth is Guyferna is that these people don't get anywhere here. They deceive a few. When I came here I thought this is a place for JWs. I was fooled. Now that I think of it, HOW DARE THEY! They try too fool you like a wolf in sheep's clothing. They want pity for their poor souls. I too started to think like the world but no longer. I too will not linger in these wolves in sheep clothing sites and will start warning others. Thanks for all your help Guyferna. I too need to get strong in the truth! This is why I'm leaving my facts here. J There are also some inhere that will fallow and will stop innocent ones from falling pray.
I also wondered about the 1975 thing. I looked and searched and found nothing in any of the watchtower and awake articles. When I ask someone here all they give me is websites. They have no proof. They have as much proof as the national tabloids do.
I trust tabloids as far as I can throw an elephant. All I found was that it was 6 millenniums after Adam's creation. But you know, God stopped creating after Eve, and who knows when she was created. The important thing is to stay faithful, and like the watchtower says, don't try to guess the day of God. That is what the bible says too.
I will become an intelligent thinker, not someone brainwashed from apostates into thinking the same way Satan did in the Garden of Eden. And now he is living proof of all the freethinking mistakes (free from God thinking). Thanks Guyferna.
