The most proof that the WT was directed by Holy Spirit was when they dropped a teaching/prediction immediately before it actually came true!

by EndofMysteries in

i don't have the exact articles offhand but russell taught the jews would be grouped back and have israel again.

after he died and rutherfords failed predictions, he decided to cut that belief saying it was all symbolic.

they dropped that belief then it ends up happening.

EndofMysteries

Yup! Can't believe that for Rutherfords ENTIRE reign, they taught holy spirit was gone. That Jesus returned so holy spirit no longer needed. THAT is how it became that one can only know 'the truth' through them, because he admitted previously holy spirit could teach ANYBODY.

When he died and knorr took over, slowly holy spirit was put back in EXCEPT they never commented on it and for some reason only GB could get it.

So since the WT was wrong on angels and it going away, I'd love to see the article on how everybody gets holy spirit and can learn the scriptures on their own to only through them.

If holy spirit was directing anything, it obviously didn't want people to believe in them so made them drop what would have been their only correct prediction ever.

Hello from an exmormon

by Cold-Dodger in

jw
friends

someone named john free popped in on one of my posts at exmormon[dot]com and mentioned this website.

i have a lot of questions.

i never knew much about about the jw church.

EndofMysteries

Hey! Great post and I enjoyed hearing about how it is in Mormom church and it's VERY similar with JWs.

The part you mentioned on new members getting love, same with JW's, the love bombing. Then eventually as well after they are official then it wears off and expected to do as all others. The order is the same, and they call ex members apostates or disfellowshipped and those who never been JW's before, those in the world, instead of gentiles are called 'worldly'.

I'll write more later or feel free to message me, I gotta go now but thought I'd at least get started in the comparison for you.

I do want to ask on the Mormon belief of the future, etc. What is the belief of Earth? And the afterlife? I heard something along the lines of Earth is a testing ground and those who pass become a god and get to rule over a planet?

special pioneers let go.

bethel workers laid off.

construction halts, what's next?

EndofMysteries

What it means is that the GB and the few left remaining will use all the money coming in from the congregation promises and banks to live in luxury, traveling the world first class, first class hotels, restaurants, etc, while giving occasional talks and publishing everything online and having everybody print their own literature.

Wait he's homeless? Maybe he was one of the career bethelites lovingly sent home. He put the org first, never got married, never had kids, donated his inheritence to the borg, and now sent home with the only skill of washing windows finds himself homeless.

So elders will call the police if their cars are getting smashed up but not if a child is getting molested

No 'Tight Pants' policy is now official - classed as 'disturbing'

by wizzstick in

in short:- tight pants is no longer just a am3 hang up (or is that a hang up on the well hung?

)- brothers who have effeminate body language are flagged up- as are sisters with 'masculine' hair styles or dress- such dress is 'disturbing to the congregation'- the above must heed the (repeated) counsel from the elders...or they get stripped of the right to share on the ministry- however...this will not be revealed (announced) to the congregation.

wow.

EndofMysteries

"Your pants are too tight! We are stripping you of your privilege of scrubbing the toilets and cleaning the bathroom, of talks, and of waking up Saturday mornings for service. That means we must handle your privileges for....you!.......ehhum.....actually they don't look all that tight to me, just forget we ever said anything! Well what are you waiting for?? The toilets won't scrub themselves, back to work!!"

Have you heard the one about "Back to the Future" Predicting 911??

by EndofMysteries in

when somebody posted this on fb, i was anxious to see how ridiculous it would be, probably worse then the gb prophecies, etc.

after watching the clip, i honestly don't know what to believe.

at the very least it's very entertaining and interesting.

EndofMysteries

I don't know if it's all coincidence that happens to fit together quite well, intentionally put in there, or some psychic/major trauma event/that can operate on subconcious level and transcend space/time, etc. That movie though is a far better prophet than the WT though!
