  Forum plans and policy

  in case anyone is wondering about our registration policy:.

  i don't intend to turn people away who want to register and post or make ultra-strict registration procedures because i honestly don't think that they work.

  if i were to ask for names of congregations or presiding overseers then i have no real way of checking if they are correct.

  special assembly day (sad) bethel speaker ( a very good speaker i might add) in his talk " follow your spirit-directed conscience gave example of and elder and his family.

  he noticed his wife and daughter spending a lot of time morning noon and night on facebook, it almost seemed like that is all they did, so as a spiritual head decided to see what they were constantly looking at, "let me see what you are spending so much time looking at on facebook said the elder".

  the wife explained this is how we keep in contact with the "friends", elder started to look at her page and she was correct, there he found friends in the cong.

  God these men are retards once in the 80s we had a local needs talk on cuting men's hair to short on the sides while the top was long. Honestly even at 11 at the time it got me thinking how that religion was nonsense. How can adults bye into that stupid sh$$.

  In the 90's we had a local needs talk on the color of dress shirts. Only white shirts and pastels were acceptable. Too many young brothers were wearing dark shirts such as purple and green under their suits. And anyone who wanted to "reach out" and serve in the congregation such as carry the mics, etc. would not be allowed to wear any shirts other than white or a light pastel color. If a brother was caught wearing a dark shirt, his priveledges would be removed.

  All Things Fulffilled In The1st Century

  by maccauk11 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  all things were fulfilled in the 1st century.it was obvious the messiah was talking to the people in that generation not a generation 2000 years later.. christianity has for 2000 years placed itself in the shoes of those 1st century beleivers and think all things pertainott hem today.when infact none of it does.

  the prohecise of the messiah cmae true in the 1st century including revelation which is symbolic, metaphorical apocolyptic language showing all tha thad been done .

  the kingdom is here.the king rules and has done for 2000 years.

  This happened to the Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg a few years ago. Somebody added him to a group called NAMBLA , the North American Man/Boy Love Association. Seems like he would have wanted to change it after this to where you have to accept a request once someone invites you to a group, but it's still the same.

  What is the difference between wearing makeup and and celebrating a birthday?

  by I_love_Jeff in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  most of the women mentioned in the bible who wore makeup were prostitutes.

  jehovah's witnesses state that it is okay to wear a little makeup because the bible does not say it is not allowed.

  according to jehovah's witnesses, there are two accounts of birthdays being celebrated in the bible and both had to do with beheadings/murders.

  "At length Je´hu came to Jez´re·el, and Jez´e·bel herself heard of it. And she proceeded to paint her eyes with black paint and do her head up beautifully and to look down through the window." (2 Kings 9:30)

  The Bible mentions makeup here and it's a bad person that puts it on, and a death occurs. Birthdays are forbidden since someone is killed at the two birthdays in the Bible. The cross reference in the NWT at 2 Kings 9:30 points to 1 Peter 3:3.

  "And do not let YOUR adornment be that of the external braiding of the hair and of the putting on of gold ornaments or the wearing of outer garments." (1 Peter 3:3)

  I wonder why they didn't make this into a rule.

  In Practice, the GB Substitutes "The Organization" for Jesus

  by Ding in

  recently, i have had some pm discussions with a couple of jwn members regarding the extent to which the gb injects itself and the wt organization into the bible message.

  one of them encouraged me to post my comments as a topic, so i am doing so here.. .

  in the wt religion, everything is about "god's organization.

  In Matthew 9:6 Jesus says that he has been given the authority to forgive sins, but the GB teaches that only the Father forgives sins and that he does this in large part based on JWs' proving themselves worthy by faithful dedication to the work of the organization.

  Do they really teach that only the Father forgives sins? Are there any Watchtower quotes on this?

  To me, they act like Absalom, third son of David, who paciently spent years "stealing the hearts" of the Israelites in hopes to usurp the throne.

  Does that mean that the Governing Body is currently sitting on the modern day throne of David?
