What if the Watchtower IS part of The New World Order but not the one JWs think they are?
by truthseeker infor those who believe there is something to the agenda of the new world order, what do you think about jehovahs witnesses being part of this?.
.
do you think the watchtower organization is being monitored by the powers that be to see how compliant they can make their followers?.

From personal experience?
Indeed.
One (earth) world government by man.
Versus...
One multiverse government by God.
Big difference.
Not that Watchtower followers can tell though.
Nor read.
(Jeremiah 17:5) . . ."Cursed is the able-bodied man who puts his trust in earthling man [including the GB]"
Peter in reply to the GB of the day (Sanhedrin): "We must obey God as ruler rather than men" (Acts 5:29).

Sorry for your loss Dale.
I'm sure you are proud of Jim's principled stand against the apostate religious hierarchy, their corruption and their abuses.
(Ezekiel 9:4) . . .“Pass through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and you must put a mark on the foreheads of the men that are sighing and groaning over all the detestable things that are being done in the midst of it.”
May you and your family be strengthened and blessed until you are all once again reunited with Jim in the "everlasting dwelling places" spoken of in Luke 16:9.

Why has the watchtower never written a commentary on the Greek scriptures?
by kneehighmiah inthey have writes hundreds of other repetitive books, but no bible commentary.
is it because an actually commentary would destroy their doctrine and prevent them from being able to cherry pick scriptures?.

A genuine "Commentary on Galatians" would be devastating.

How did you find the truth about the truth (TTATT)
by Maat13 ini am sure there has been a post about this subject, however being a recent addition to the network i don't know how to do a search.
and i'm sure new folks have joined since then.
i am really curious of how others came to know ttatt.. for me is was a real bad experience with one elder after another.

Do you think the age has passed when there can be no new religions?
by truthseeker ini think we are already living in the age where there can be no new religions.
we have access to information like never before and anyone claiming revelations of something new and starting a whole new religion can easily be discredited.. christianity and islam may continue to subdivide but i think we've pretty much seen the end of anything new in terms of a new belief system.. .
what are your thoughts on this?.

Religion I believe has had its heyday and has been in decline since the partial death blow dealt in 1517 by Martin Luther.

What is the key to free yourself from the Organization?
by suavojr inthey key to free yourself from the organization is having mental clarity of what is happening in relation to the watchtower, inside and out.
their basic concept is that they are god's sole organization on earth.
there really is no basis for anyone to make that statement.

For our family the key was the liberating gospel (or Good News) according to Paul (and others).
Isaiah 61:1:
"The spirit of the Sovereign Lord Jehovah is upon me [Jesus], for the reason that Jehovah has anointed me [Jesus] to tell [the] good news to the meek ones [sheep or wheat]. He has sent me [Jesus] to bind up the brokenhearted [spiritually deprived and unregenerated], to proclaim [spiritual] liberty to those taken [spiritually] captive [by religion/ists] and the wide opening [of the spiritual eyes] even to the [spiritual] prisoners [of religion/ists]".
Seeing the Pharisees ("elders") deep contempt, hatred and fear of the unabridged gospel of grace was the final clincher.

"Probably You Might be Saved" - Somewhere in Zephaniah As I Recall
by Perry inthe watchtower (and old-timers in the org) love to quote old testament passages that were directed toward israel.
however, the new testament is "a better covenant based upon better promises".. in the following verses, salvation is not described as a possibility, but as a certainty, as a present possession for the original christians:.
justification is a present possession (rom.

What WingCommander said.
What must one do with relentlessly abusive, extremely toxic, and extreme destructive family members, except take note of just how poisonous the food is that Watchtower followers are being fed?

What a great way for the Pharisees to respond to a request for spiritual help.
