i have been asked by a jw friend of mine to share with him the reasons why i believe that the watchtower is not the true religion.
what all do you think that i should share with him?.
-i'm going to share the information about their hypocrisy in being a un ngo.
-I have an extensive list of their false prophecies
When you give him that list....tie in the scripture at Deuteronomy 18:20-22
When the prophet speaks in the name of Jehovah and the word does not occur or come true, that is the word that Jehovah did not speak. With presumptuousness the prophet spoke it. You must not get Frightened at him.
If there is some way that you can get him to read Raymond Franz' book COC he should surely come to understand that the Watchtower is not the true religion.
that is right-- do not pray for thier families!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
they had no business being up in the heavens anyway, the earth is what jehovah created for mankind,
man has continued since the days of nimrod to reach into the heavens.
James,
It is nice to have you back on the forum expressing your thoughts. You express things very well.
It is good too that you have gotten away from that WT way of thinking.
I have noticed and I am very happy that you and "Lady C" are much happier people than you were when you were in the Borg.
It is so nice to be "FREE"
in order to lend a helping hand, i put up a new website dedicated to housing audio and video files related to the watchtower society.
currently, all media files are related to pedophilia.
you can access this new website by going to http://www.dirtclod.com.
Jourles,

VIV,
You Da Girl!!!!!!!
as a canadian, beer is near and very dear to my heart??
so hence the question:.
who makes the best beer?.
Red Stripe beer from Jamaica is pretty good. I was surprised when I first tasted it.
Has anyone here ever tried it?
being reasanable to assume that,they are promoting fear within the congregations,keeping others from asking awkward questions,it seems that no one is interested in the reasons why that other person was named and shamed,what a way to control people , one minute they are your best friends the next minute you bump into them say in the high street and you dont seem to exist within there boundarys or vision ,.
my remedy .if you are in this position is to greet them very loudly laughingly saying hallo there ,big wave big smile,be carfull of those paedophiles your mixing with.
( nice & loud ) next time they see you they will run to the otherside of the road,instead of trying to intimidate you.
Nightwarrior,
I know what you are saying.....I have never been DF or DA but they treat me the same way. I have not been to a meeting in a couple of years.
Even my wife who still attends some meetings gets shunned when she is with me. We saw some elders at the auto show last year and they tried to pretend that they did not see us. We passed within a few feet of them. I pretended not to see them and did not say anything to my wife about it at the time. When we got home she told me that she saw them. A sister called her the next day and said that her husband saw us at the auto show and my wife said, "well, they did not speak". The sister said "you were too far away".
What a bunch of BULL!!!!
I am waiting for them to show up at my door too. I have something for them.

ram butts bible man.

In its own defence, The Adelaide congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses said doorknocking was voluntary and followers were not obliged to do it.
Everyone knows that a person has to do Field Service in order to be qualified for baptism. You cannot even qualify to carry the MICs if you don't get a least 10 hours a month in FS.

Jourles,
You are doing a great job. Your efforts are very much appreciated.
Has anyone heard about the WTBTS setting up a liability fund to cover the costs of these lawsuits?
I heard through the grapevine that they are going to set one up.

dangers on the internet
The way they keep harping about dangers on the internet.....makes me wonder why the dubs just don't get it. WT does not want its members on the Internet because they don't want them to know what is going on with "THEM". They don't even ask "What are the dangers on the internet.?"
If they would just think to go to a search engine and type JR Brown and United nations a ton of stuff about the WT Organization would come up.
As JT always says they are just a mouse click away from freedom.

my best friend is bombarding me with arguments why i should be a witness and giving "biblical reasons" why i should be a witness again.
i give him the reasons why i'm not one, and he keeps on chipping it away with watchdollar rhetoric.
i need airtight arguments with non-xjw references against the following doctrines and contreversies:.
Elsewhere,
That is a great answer. I was just getting ready to post those same scriptures in Deu 18:20-22.
Coldredrain,
20 "'However, the prophet who presumes to speak in my name a word that I have not commanded him to speak or who speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet must die. 21 And in case you should say in your heart: "How shall we know the word that Jehovah has not spoken?" 22 when the prophet speaks in the name of Jehovah and the word does not occur or come true, that is the word that Jehovah did not speak. With presumptuousness the prophet spoke it. You must not get frightened at him.'
If your friend believes the bible is the word of God how can he argue that the word of God has changed.
WT had to change because what they said did not come true.
