The thing is, paragraph 5 is EXACTLY right. That is why 7 million JWs cannot see through the rubbish of the WTS... because they have no faith. In my old congregation, very few actualy knew anything about the bible and their 'faith' was based upon the faith of those taking the lead. Very few were truly spiritual. People who trust in Jesus as their saviour are usualy the ones who appreciate Gods promises.
Next weeks Watchtower is VERY funny i think. The WTS totaly contradicts itself. It mentions in paragraph 5:
"apostates use “counterfeit words,” or false arguments, trying to pass their fabricated views as if they were true. They spread “deceptive teachings,” “twisting . . . the Scriptures” to fit their own ideas."
Then in paragraph 7 they say:
"We also love Jehovah’s organization, through which we have been taught thrilling truths—including Jehovah’s name and its meaning, God’s purpose for the earth, the condition of the dead, and the hope of the resurrection. Can you recall how you felt when you first learned these and other precious truths? Why, then, allow yourself to be soured by anyone who would denigrate the organization through which you learned these truths?—John 6:66-69."
THAT IS THE BIGGEST TWISTING OF SCRIPTURE I HAVE EVER SEEN! John 6:68 speaks about Jesus having the knowledge and sayings of everlasting life. All that knowledge comes from the bible... not the Watchtower, but they have twisted it and with a false argument. How pious. They should first extract the rafter from their own eye.
