  Front row seats watching the collapse of watchtower

  by Indoubtbigtime in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i’m a pimo ministerial servant and i won’t fade because i want to keep my front row seats watching what happens next few years.. my predictions are that this current governing body will slowly die off and the current younger helpers will be the next gb.

  they will eventually have new light that they were wrong about 1914 and the overlapping generations.. the new light will be something on the lines of the last days are now because of king of north king of south pushing each other etc etc.

  they will do their very best to burry old literature and try to change the past trying to make it sound like they were right all along just as they have done for 150 years now.

  You don't have to stay in to watch how the GB membership changes and what the new ones do.

  JW.org missing the point of the last supper

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  of course most christians partake in different ways at different intervals (the bible never says strictly annual) but obviously the main point is christ's flesh and blood.

  for jws the main attraction is the organization's sales pitch and in the new 2023 memorial invitation they pretty much admit it, quote:.

  the main feature of the memorial is a talk.

  The WT makes it seems as if it's a sacrifice for the anointed to go to Heaven instead of petting lions and having picnics on a paradise earth.

  Think of how many JWs say, "I wouldn't want to go to Heaven. What would I do there?"

  Is it Logical To Beleive In A Creator - GOD ? In This Scientific Age ?

  by smiddy3 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i don`t think so .

  hasn`t science ,astronomy ,time , .....proven it an illogical beleif ?.

  with the information about this solar system and it`s planets ,other stars and their planets that we have information about ,and the fact that no god has ever revealed him/her self in any shape or form 'there is no evidence that a creator / god has ever existed.. except in the minds of humans who want to control a section of humanity .. the fact that religions rely on "you have to have faith" to beleive in a god ,surely is a cop out.. i look forward to your comments .. and a happy new year to you all..

  Advancing scientific knowledge regarding the complexity of everything from the universe itself to the components and working of the cell provide evidence for intelligent design.

  Did all of this complexity and fine tuning really come into existence from nothing?

  In fact, on an atheistic model, why does anything exist rather than nothing at all?

  The Gospel According to Jehovah's Witnesses

  mark jones explains the watchtower gospel much better than i can.. "the good news that christians in the first century preached was the birth, death and resurrection of jesus christ; that all those who believed in him were saved and reconciled to god through the death of his son.. unfortunately jehovah’s witnesses) have been led to believe it is something bizarrely different.

  the good news according to the watchtower society is as follows:.

  How come the old boys on the GB don't get kicked out at 70?

  by eyeslice in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it would appear that circuit overseers (no dos these days i guess) are taken off at 70 years old.

  even older ones in bethels are disposed (sorry 're-assigned to the field) of before they get too past it.. how come though the old boys on the gb aren't shown the door at 70 and replaced by younger men - obviously of the recently anointed type?

  they don't look a particularly fit bunch so they can't claim special mightiness because of doing 'the lord's work'.

  curious.

  time goes by so fast.

  who remembers 1975, the ray franz incident, the generation change in 1995, the blood fractions, alternative service, participation in ochr, aid afrique, the historical research by james pellechia, jolene chu and johannes stephan wrobel?

  I think it's ironic when JWs rejoice over "new light" which is really the WT accepting Christendom teachings which they had condemned for years, such as the "superior authorities" being worldly governments.

  Is The Religion Of Jehovah's Witnesses Biblical?

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the answer is a definite no!.

  because every doctrine that is unique to jehovah's witnesses is not in the bible.

  the unique doctrines of jehovah’s witnesses are the ones that only jehovah’s witnesses teach.

  The WT's idea of "biblical" is to first figure out what they believe and then hunt through the Bible for some out-of-context verses they can twist to teach it.

  Christmas and the name jehovah

  by nowwhat? in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for the same reasons jw's reject christmas they use the name jehovah.. dec 25 is the recognized day to celebrate the birth of christ in the world.- we use jehovah because it is the recognized name of the father in the world.. it dishonors jesus because we don't know the actual date of jesus birth- even though we don't know the actual pronouncing of gods name it brings honor to god to use it.

  even though the angels rejoiced at the birth of jesus, no where in the bible does it say we should celebrate it.

  even though no where in the bible does it say christians are to be witnesses of jehovah, we proudly bear his name!.

  It's sad when you read a post that might as well have been cut and pasted from the Reasoning book.

  No original thinking at all.

  Just parroting the company line.

  In addition, people who are fortunate enough to make it into Jesus' 1000 year reign over the earth will have to clean up the carnage of Armageddon.

  They will also have to reach moral perfection by the end of the 1000 years and pass a final test by Satan. If not, Jehovah will annihilate them.

  Even after they pass the "final test," they (like Adam in Eden) will always still be capable of choosing to disobey Jehovah in some way. If they do, Jehovah will annihilate them.

  So trying to attain to perfection and knowing that there will never be a point at which their salvation is 100% secure is what the Watchtower calls "paradise."
