  Spirit Directed... what exactly does that mean?

  by Elsewhere in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the wts is always saying that it is "spirit directed".. what exactly does that mean?

  does any of the literature ever actually define "spirit directed"?.

  in the past the literature said that angels came down and told russel and ruthorford what "truth" was... then when their "truth" started to fail, the wts started using the phrase "spirit directed".. is this just a way of saying "god controls us, but we are not accountable for any errors made"?.

  Not Too Bad A Cult.... In Comparison To Others. Let's Talk About Cults.

  by Doubtfully Yours in

  i saw an episode of a day talk show the other day in which they interviewed these two women that were part of a polygamous cult in utah.

  the cult was referred to as 'the order'.. men married many young wives, and these were expected/forced to breed in large numbers.

  these women worked for the cult.

  Now that sounds like my kind of cult.

  Not really I see those poor girls all the time, and the old (B) they are with are fat and slobbery.

  Its bad if you were suckered into having no other friends other than those in the kingdom hall, then it is a major "B".

  The reason why most everyone on the forum will not show their faces is that they are afraid of the big GB and the lurking elders that have you hiding under your beds, I used to be that way till I turned on the lights and seen they were only shapes of my old clothes on the floor and shadows of nothing.

  My Mormon buddy

  by AloneinOh in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i felt compelled to post this to kind of stick up for my buddy a little bit.

  i'm not sticking up for mormons....only sticking up for a friend that happens to be a mormon.

  some may say he is secretly trying to convert me, but he really is, just a friend that happens to be a mormon.. i am in no way endorsing mormons or have any desire to be one.

  I like the Mormons, they never realy did nothing to bother me, for the most part they are fair with most everone.

  When I was hurt real bad from a head trauma it was the Mormons that paid for my month to month needs not the Jehovah's Witness's and I was in good standing with the witness's at the time, the fact is I may seriously check out the Mormons simply because they showed compassion to me.. What the hell, the book of Mormon is about as plausable as anything else. Shane

  It taught me a lesion never dump all your friends who are not of your persuasion just because some stupid religion and its old leaders tell you too, if you do then you deserve to be feeling badly dealt with. Shane

  Questions No JW has answered

  by 144001 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  many times i have asked my jw relatives questions that they've been unable to answer with anything other than, "good question, i'll get back to you on that.

  " for some reason, they never actually do get back to me on them.

  so, now here's the opportunity for the jehovah's witnesses and their supporters on this forum to either answer some of these questions or concede that they have no answer.
