    Their unity is the most pronounced and enduring in the history of the world, a unity exceeding anything experienced by Satan's
    subjects. Such love and unity are foregleams of the marvelous time to come in God's new world, which will be governed in righteousness and justice.

    Aside from an absolutely absurd assertion that what they have is 'the most pronounced and enduring in the history of the world', it is IMO inacurate to label what Jehovah's Witnesses have as unity. Unity should accrue from hearts that have freely atuned to agreement and then come together. In the case of Jw's, they come together and then are forced to accept a unanimous view of the world, and life, and doctrine, and discipline, and everything else.

    Anyone who has freely been allowed to compare other organizations with the Watchtower would not necessarily accept that Jw's exceed all others in this matter. Certainly not in love, particularly of the sort that supposes to imitate Jesus.

    17. Satan and his followers will soon come against Jehovah's worshippers in an attempt to stamp them out.
    (Ezekiel 38: 14-23) That will be part of what Jesus called the "great tribulation such as has not occurred since
    the world's beginning until now, no, nor will occur again." (Matthew 24:21) Will Satan's attack succeed? No.
    God's Word assures us, "Jehovah is a lover of justice, and he will not leave his loyal ones. To time indefinite
    they will certainly be guarded; but as for the offspring of the wicked ones, they will indeed be cut off. The
    righteous themselves will possess the earth, and they will reside forever upon it."- Psalm 37:28, 29.

    Interesting selection of completely non-related scriptures. Ezekiel refers to attack on the Nation of Israel, Matthew talks of the 'great tribulation' that came on the Jews in the first century, and Psalms refers to peace during the Kings of Israel that abided by God's direction. How did I ever believe this 'garbage'?

    worldwide they enjoy a unity that is cemented by Christian love.

    The same love which allows grandparents to shun their teen grandchildren because
    they were pressured at 10 or 11 years old to dedicate themselves to an earthly
    organization.

    Jehovah's servants are the most loving, united, peaceful, law-abiding people on earth.

    That's cult language for "Only we are good, all others are bad."

    Question 18 (b) Why has it been good for you to review this Bible-based information about the triumph of justice?

    Cult language again. "You are accomplishing deep study of the Bible. No need to look elsewhere."

    JW's are really going to get hit hard when the "members only" issues start. Sad- most of them will
    not notice. How could I have stayed "in" so long and not noticed, myself? Well, some will wake up
    to these things.

    being gathered during these last days. They are already nearly seven million strong

    They are not stepping away from (though written subtly) that only JWs will be saved.

    *IF* this actually occurs (though I hear as it was in the days of Noah - paraphrashing cause it's easier - blah blah they said it's still the same, you get the idea). I would truely love to be judged by my heart and love for Jesus and Jehovah (is that who he/she/it? really is) and be standing there alive with ALL those who made it, then look over and see the ones I dearly love even now in the JW's. The truely humble, meek, and so hurt and misguided but they had more (maybe less) courage to stick it out. So many of the JW's are full of crap but the ones I think of most are the ones who; were as I used to be - shorn, trusting, and questioning.

    Reading that acutally made my stomach hurt. It is hard to imagine what my reaction to their self description would have been two years ago or more. Would I have thought it was nonsence, hyperbole? Or would I have thought, that is so true, we are the most loving people in the history of the world? I really wonder what the typical JW response would be to those statements.
