The Myth About Jehovah as a "GOD of LOVE".

by smiddy3 in

i`ll list a few things and welcome any input, comments you may have .. 1.when adam & eve "sinned" disobeyed him, surely god could have handled it better than to condemn all future generations to disease and death ?.

2.his handling of satan who supposedly seduced eve to disobey god could also have been done a lot differently with a finality to it.. 3.i find little if anything in his dealings with the patriarchs that suggests a loving god protecting them.?.

4.taking on the nation of israel and leading them as his chosen people does not inspire confidence or trust as a god of love.. 5.throughout the hebrew scriptures / old testament his chosen people were constantly at war with other nations which of course would have meant many deaths of the israelite`s during these battles .and the grief that comes with family members in those times.

Johnamos says .........

If you lived on an island with 1,000 adults (men and women) and 500 children (boys and girls) and if only 3 men out of the 1000 adults were men that would rape, kill, and steal, etc.. would you feel it is okay for them to be there to do those things or would you want them to be removed from the island? If you would want them to be removed, would that be unjust/unloving?
Armageddon is loving and just. Those that will be killed will be those that are like the 3 men on the island and the one that robbed your home.

In your analogy you forgot to mention that YAHWEH killed innocent people, such as children during the Noah's flood only to save one family who after this killing genocide were not really good moral people.

.......and no I wouldn't want someone who robbed my home to be killed for it

According to the bible Yahweh/Jesus is going to kill all people who worshiped other gods who were never baptized in his name .

Your analogy is tainted with corruption just like the lying corrupt spin doctrines of the Watchtower Corporation and the men who run it.

Hospital is laying off and furloughing

by Anony Mous in

i've been having a tough time today, i just got notice that our hospital is laying off a large group of people and furloughing others.

nurses, doctors, we just don't have enough business during this covid crisis, we've only ran at 60% capacity, while cuomo is telling us about shortages, they weren't ever realized, and nys simply won't open up fast enough for us to recover.

nys has given notice that hospitals are likely going to be out for 4-5 more months before all restrictions will be lifted, only necessary surgeries are allowed right now, with a few hundred of millions per month revenue shortfall, this is going to destroy and contract our business and our remote (rural) hospitals are the hardest hit, probably going to close permanently.

Finkelstein

Sorry to hear that , I guess this isn't surprising being that many Hospitals dramatically reduced their operating activity in general.

The bright side to this is that when the restrictions are lifted and Hospitals return to their normal activity they will be busy places for sure.

US Letter Read Sunday 4/26 at Meeting - No KH Use and No Field Service Indefinitely

by JWTom in

jw
friends

there was a letter read sunday at our meeting that mentioned some parts of us are starting to open back up.

however, regardless of things opening up that no kingdom halls should be used for any meetings of any kind.

also, no door-to-door ministry or any form of in-person ministry is allowed.

Finkelstein

This letter is just confirming the governments laws regarding social gatherings.

When these restrictions are lifted another letter will be sent out stating its OK to attend Kingdom Halls, after all that's where the real brainwashing takes place.

Elders once again can reinsert their power over the flock, guilt tripping and obligating people to spread the literature to the public.

Finkelstein

To say the god of the ancient Hebrews was a god of love toward what he created is a nonsensical lie based upon what he did to mankind and what he's supposedly going to do again to the majority of mankind again.

A purposed myth about a myth

Some JWS would say after watching those people get burnt alive would say ... " Well that's what they get for worshiping the wrong god, we did so that's why we weren't killed "

Do the GB leaders of the JWS make its members delusionaly insane ?

by Finkelstein in

this particular question or evaluation of the people who are participating jws has come up before in debate.

the more one deeply analyzes this the answer usually comes up in the affirmative yes.

when you consider the fact that jws members will abandon their own family, go as far as kill themselves under the direction of these men, it really confirms just how deep the mental and conscious indoctrination these men have gone.. .

Finkelstein

Since the men of the Watchtower Corporation have lied and deceived for so many years in their teaching and preaching version of the Gospel of Jesus, it would be correctly to assume that have a direct hot line to Satan.

" Aww my boys from the WTS again want to know what to teach and write in their literature"

To use a theoretical analogy .......

Lets say the great of day Armageddon did come and you witnessed fire raining down on a group non Christians lets say Muslims (men,woman and children) and you saw them screaming and crying as they were being burnt alive would still hold that the gods Jesus and Yahweh were gods of love ?

Finkelstein, Jehovah God will send Jesus and the angels for that job.

So god is still a god of love when he sends his son and angels to burn people alive killing off most of humanity .

When he said he wouldn't kill people by drowning humanity like he did in Noah's flood, that's a indication of an act of love for sure.

Yes that would make all all logical and rational sense.
