It's BACK - the 2011 Global Survey of JWs!!

by cedars in

jw
friends

i'm pleased to announce that despite some considerable teething troubles (of which many of you will be aware!

), the 2011 survey of jws is back on the road!

there is no need for any donations, so none will be asked for in any way, shape or form.

Cedars.

My gut feel tells me this voice for the formerly voiceless is going to become painfully loud and impossible to ignore (by all including media)!

I bet the apostate GB/WBT$ dies before the annual global survey is discontinued (becomes redundant).

I have 195 theses in draft waiting for the right 1517 (Luther) moment to add to the cacophony of woes descending on the naked, apostate, witless and frightened Sanhedrin (GB) and Pharisees (ruling clergy class and hierarchy)...

How long can such a villainous and venomous organization fly under the "not newsworthy" and "insignificant" radar?

Some say the WBT$ is the largest publisher (of spiritually deleterious propaganda) in the free world. They do spend a billion hours distributing over half a billion pieces of literature (insidiously deceitful self-righteous supremacist spiritistic propaganda) annually.

How bad have you wanted to write "The DA Letter"?

by RayPublisher in

like many of you i am fading and am trying to stay the course rather than be dfed due to family ties.

but i so badly want to simply write a letter and be rid of this giant weight on my back lately.

just like a bandaid that is easier to just tear off, i guess.. .

Fernando

RayPublisher. Would love to know the numbers past & present of those in this predicament. Best wishes on whatever strategy you go with.

We found being on another continent a great help. Being able to tell the GB they are apostate, and being able to prove it conclusively on one piece of paper was priceless.

Now we are free to learn, explore, question, discuss and grow like never before and without continually looking over our shoulders. The scriptures have come alive as never before.

We continue to be astounded at just how spiritually blind, captive, confused, inebriated and insane the WBT$ is, and how anyone can get to understand the Bible better than they ever will.

Is the WT a "spiritual paradise"?

by Fernando in

why is it near impossible to find a person in this "spiritual paradise" that has the "good news according to paul" in their hearts and on their lips?.

not a big deal?.

to paul it was!.

To Paul it was!

More than half the Bible's 152-odd references to the "good news" are by Paul!

Jesus is a "mentally diseased" apostate that must be "slaughtered" - sound familiar?

by Fernando in

.

when jesus was on earth did he lead people to, or away from, the elders (pharisees) and governing body (sanhedrin)?.

more apostate hating from the watchtower .

No real religion! We just need to be different than any and everyone else!

by Silent_Scream in

this must be a memo from a gb meeting:.

they say: jesus died on a cross we say: he died on a stake.

they show: jesus having long hair we show: him with short curly hair.

Fernando

They say: clergy vs laity

We say: "GB/FDS/The Anointed/Elders" vs "Other Sheep/Great Crowd"

What about other religions?

by TimothyT in

i love being a christian and i deeply respect the teachings of jesus and i firmly believe that it is through faith in him that we recieve eternal life and salvation.. but what about everyone else?

islam, hindu, buddhist, etc?.

even as a jw i never believed that salvation was exlusively for jw's, but where do all other sincere worshippers of other religions fit in?

Judge Rutherford, spiritistic rascal that he was, actually did teach extensively that "all religion" "is a snare and a racket".

This is easily verified by searching the publications 1937_enemies.pdf and 1940_religion.pdf for the phrase "all religion".

The phrases "false religion" and "true religion" were unknown to him. I have not found them in these (admittedly not perfectly scanned) publications.

The Watchtower claims otherwise, but is once again lying.

*** w73 12/15 p. 761 Trusting Jehovah with All My Heart ***
As I listened to J. F. Rutherford’s exposé of the clergy, I knew that I was committed to a fight for the truth and against false religion.

*** jv chap. 7 p. 84 Advertise the King and the Kingdom! (1919-1941) ***
On Saturday, September 18, following his morning discourse, Brother Rutherford released the tan-colored book Enemies. It denounced false religion as “a great enemy, always working injury to mankind.” False religionists were identified as “agents of the Devil, whether they are aware of that fact or not.”

*** w51 8/15 p. 511 Questions From Readers ***
Why has the Watchtower Society suddenly approved the use of the word “religion” relative to the worship of Jehovah’s witnesses?—P. L., New York.

*** yb75 p. 161 Part 2—United States of America ***
Ursula Serenco observes: “This was the time when we did not designate ‘true religion’ and ‘false religion’; all religion in totality was bad. The true we referred to as ‘worship,’ while the false was ‘religion.’”

Religion builds divisive walls between people, and between them and the "unabridged gospel".

Ask a Watchtower follower ("Christian" religionist) to explain what the "gospel" is in one word and one sentence!
Ask an Islamist (Muslim religionist) to explain what the "injeel" is in one word and one sentence!
Ask a Judaiser (Jewish religionist) to explain what the "bissar" is in one word and one sentence!

All these people, comprising around half of earth's population, claim Abraham as earthly spiritual father yet have no idea what the gospel/bissar/injeel is that God declared to him (Gal 3:7-9,26-29) or what the ONE faith is that it leads to.

Actually there is no such thing as the "Abrahamic religions" since Abraham like Jesus was never a religionist. Neither is there any such thing as faithS - since there is only ONE faith (that of Abraham).

If we all embraced nothing but the "unabridged gospel" we would soon discover we are all following the same spiritual guru Jesus (or Yeshua to Jews, and Hazrat Isa pbuh to Muslims). We would then see and treat each other as brothers and sisters regardless of our particular dysfunction or degree of dysfunction.

Religion is antithetical to the unabridged gospel/bissar/injeel, and hence to faith and spirituality (as we know from experience).

Interesting Google searches

- tawrat zabur injeel

- tawrat zabur injil

- "Muslims are not Islamists" (use quotation marks to search for phrase - 8,590 hits)

(the Qu'ran refers to and affirms the injeel/injil 14 or more times, yet Muslims are prevented by their religious leaders from pursuing or understanding - much like with the Watchtower)
