  Wheat/weeds parable defeats "organization' teaching

  by Zoos in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in his illustration at mathew 13: 24-30, jesus made it clear that the wheat and weeds were to grow together until the harvest.

  this parable runs contrary to the concept put forward by the wt about getting out of the world and running to their organization for salvation.. first of all, the parable says that the weeds will be gathered, bundled and burned first then the wheat will be gathered into the storehouse.. wt teaches that we need to gather up the wheat first.

  not only are they doing it backward, they are teaching that true christians must isolate themselves inside a special wheat organization, separate from the weeds.

  I'm not trying to brag, but being an EXJW is awesome!!! Status Update-

  hello jwn!

  i don't get to check in here or comment as often as i would like because i have been working so hard at school...but i just have to share my news in hopes that newbees can see that taking the leap to enroll in higher education is worth it-.

  i am graduating this spring with a bachelor degree in art history, minor anthropology...many people (including nonjw's have given me flack for choosing a "dead end" career path) but since leaving the watchtower organization's group-think mentality and "leaning on my own understanding" instead... i decided to say fuck everyone else's opinion...i am going to pursue my passion to work in a museum as a curator or archivist-.

  7 years ago i started on a path i had long ago given up on as impossible.

  i met with my elders and told them i could not justify carrying on as a jw.

  i went and got my high school qualifications and my higher education diploma (a levels with distinction) in just 12 months.

  Awesome Dr. Snare..... so glad that you never gave up!

  When you look at that Diploma with your name on it,

  only you, will be able to comprehend how much blood, sweat

  & tears are behind it.

  All the best

  The real 'brass ring' in this merry-go-round is that

  shunning is god sanctioned! According to jw's anyway.

  Those bu$$ers love it!

  Now they can display their meaness ...and smirk

  about it ...........'cause god says!
