Watchtower Branch Office staff "arrested" for invasion of privacy! (Spying) "In Search of Christian Freedom" Quote p.380 "When he approached the car, those inside quickly drove off. He then went to the rear of the van and looked in through the hole of the material covering the rear window. Inside he saw video camera equipment being used by two Witnesses, an elder named Nikolas Antoniou, and a member of the Athens Watch Tower branch office staff, Dimetre Zerdes. A number of others from Voula's home came over to the van and a policeman stationed at the nearby Italian Embassy also appeared to find out what the problem was. The Witnesses in the van managed to drive through the surrounding group and drove to a nearby park where they began quickly unloading their video equipment. They were interrupted by the arrival of two police cars and were arrested on charges of invasion of privacy. The video equipment was confiscated." You can get this book in PDF here:

Watchtower admits in court "under oath" to being false prophets! (Douglas Walsh Trial transcript p.347)

http://www.godandscience.org/cults/falseadmission.html

Back to the point now. A false prophesy was promulgated?

A.I agree that.

Q.It had to be accepted by Jehovah's Witnesses?

A.That is correct.

Q. If a member of Jehovah's Witnesses took the view himself that that prophesy was wrong and said so he would be disfellowshipped?

A.Yes, if he said so and kept persisting in creating trouble, because if the whole organisation believes one thing, even though it be erroneous and somebody else starts on his own trying to put his ideas across then there is disunity and trouble, there cannot be harmony, there cannot be marching. When a change comes it should come from the proper source, the head of the organisation, the governing body, not from the bottom upwards, because everybody would have ideas, and the organisation would disintegrate and go in a thousand different directions. Our purpose is to have unity.

Christian Greek Scriptures are primarily directed to the 144,000!

Baptism is "pagan" according to the Watchtower! Baptism definitely comes from a pagan practice. Even according to the WT 1/1/93, p. 4, baptism preceded the Christian faith. It was used in Babylon and ancient Egypt, "where the cold waters of the Nile were thought to increase strength and bestow immortality." Yet, neither John, nor Jesus rejected it because of its "pagan" origins JW's get baptized as a part of "God's organization".

1. John the Baptist was send to baptize for the forgiveness of sin against the Law Covenant.

2. Jesus Himself submitted to baptism by John the Baptist. And He sent His disciples to baptize in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Mat. 3:7, John 3:22, etc.). Scroll down here: http://www.escapefromwatchtower.com/holidays N.
