New World Order VS. The Lord of the Sabbath
by writetoknow innew world order vs. the lord of the sabbath .
jehovahs witnesses teach the great crowd pictured in revelation 7:9 is the modern day organization of jehovahs witnesses.
their groups survives the end of the world, thus, coming out of the great tribulation and entering into the thousand year reign of christ coined as the new world order or the great sabbath of god.

JWs Chronology VS. Peace With God
by writetoknow inis the bible written for self-preservation or dependency upon god for salvation?
bible chronologist seems to imply that all depends upon their personal intellect or ability to figure out bible dates for salvation.
furthermore, they arent often concern with helping people understand the rest of the bible, that is, finding peace with god.

What Were the "Geneologies" Of Which Paul Was Warning In 1 Tim. 1:17?
by Justitia Themis ininteresting...from the jaimeson, fausset and brown bible commentary:.
genealogies--not merely such civil genealogies as were common among the jews, whereby they traced their descent from the patriarchs, to which paul would not object, and which he would not as here class with "fables," but gnostic genealogies of spirits and aeons, as they called them, "lists of gnostic emanations" [alford].
so tertullian [against valentinian, c. 3], and irenaeus [preface].

Why use the word apostate?
by greendawn inwhy should we define ourselves by what the fds defines us?
our enemies who seek emotional control over us even after we left their destructive cult have invested a lot of effort to demonize us with the word apostate and when we use the term ourselves we do their work for them.
most so called apostates simply thought about things deeply and came up with many questions that the jws instead of answering in a logical manner labelled these inquiring minds as demon inspired apostates doubting the god appointed fds and expelled them from their org.

Millions of years vs. Thousands according to the Society
by Cindi_67 inanother topic gave me the idea to post this one.
i have always asked myself, why does the society not agree with the amount of time archeologists say dinosaurs and other species roamed the earth?
they agree the earth has existed for maybe billions of years.

Religions similar to JWs.
by LtCmd.Lore indoes anyone know of any religions that are very similar to jehovahs witnesses?.
it tends to come up in discussions with them a lot, they like to think that they are the only ones that don't believe in hell, the trinity, that jesus died on a stake, that they won't go to heaven, or stuff like that.
i could probaby just prove them wrong, but that would take forever and it would be a lot easier to just say: "you're not as unique as you think...".

KM 09/07
by Philippus79 indoes anyone know or have a scan of the km 09/07.
in the german edition the question is raised and answered if the "faithful and discreet slaves" encourages biblestudy groups who study "deeper" topics.
obviously the answer is "no" don't do that the slaves feeds you more than enough.. i could do with an english copy.
