  there seems to be a difference of opinion between geoffrey jackson and tonny morris on how to deal with their feelings towards worldly people.geoffrey jackson made a point to say in his talk that jesus wept for the wicked in jerusalem but following that bloodthirsty tony morris in his talk wants the demon stirred wicked humanity gone..

  People who can't wait for God to destroy the wicked should take care lest they be one of the first to go.

  In Jesus' story in Luke 18, the Pharisee thanked God that he wasn't like other men, including a nearby tax collector.

  Jesus informed him that in God's eyes, he was worse because his arrogant self-righteousness prevented him from seeing his own need for repentance.

  One time I encountered an elder at a cart.

  I told him about Jackson's testimony: "I think would seem to be quite presumptuous to say that we are the only spokesperson that God is using."

  I said, "You can google it and see and hear him saying it. My question is, 'Why didn't he boldly tell the truth about what Jehovah's Witnesses believe in that regard? Isn't that what Jehovah's people are supposed to do when they witness? If the organization is just one way among many, then why do people need to become Jehovah's Witnesses?"

  He just said, "I haven't heard the statement so I'm not going to comment on it."

  I replied: "You need to go listen to it because that really bothered me. It wasn't what I would expect from an ordinary JW, let alone from an anointed member of the Governing Body."

  That was the last contact I had with him. I hope and pray that became a stone in his shoe and that it would lead him to wake up.

  ARMAGEDDON

  by Lost in the fog in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  can i ask please especially for all who are pomo?.

  we've taken a decision similar to revelation 18:4 to get out of the watchtower and not share in its sins.. how many of you still believe that god will one day terminate the world's many systems by means of an armageddon?.

  The Bible says very little about Armageddon compared to the Watchtower.

  The WT mentions it constantly to keep JWs in fear and in line.

  I'm surprised they talk with anyone at the carts other than to smile, offer them free literature, and direct them to jw dot org.

  what do you guys think of the evangelicals theory about babylon the great and the last pope...just starting this big book out of curiosity...like 500 pages...it seems there is a lot of different thinking from the borg.

  Most of the time, the WT acts as if it's the only religious organization that pays any attention to Bible prophecy.

  When it does mention other views, it chides Christendom for its errors, ignoring the fact that (so far as I know) the WT itself has promoted more failed dates that any other person or organization within the same time frame.

  Never mind what we said yesterday. We have new light for you today.

  Meanwhile, the GB continues to see itself as the focal point of history and interprets everything in terms of themselves. No wonder they can't get anything right.

  I think Uncle was showing the elders the sort of things they would face in court if they mess with Uncle's JW family members.

  YouTube's 'Colder Pizza' Reads Hilarious Proselytizing Letter by Awakened PIMO JW

  by Roger Kirkpatrick in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for the record, 'colder pizza' is the fifth youtuber to read this incredible letter.. jws hate this letter because it accurately expresses current watch tower teachings which they have embraced as "the truth" in language commonly used by jws in private conversation but would never express so candidly to non-jws.. most people have known at least one jw at some point in their life, but nobody knows what jws actually believe; therefore, they view jws as basically a harmless religion.

  this letter is designed to correct that common misapprehension.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7099bfvhvs&t=378s.

  Their "witness" is that Jesus is an archangel who picked them to run everything for him.
