  The identity of "The Faithful and Discreet Slave", solved - I think.

  by Island Man in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  “who really is the faithful and discreet* slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time?

  - matthew 24:45. let's be honest, the faithful and discreet slave logically cannot refer to any and every christian.

  this is not merely an encouragement for all christians to prove themselves faithful and discreet.

  Is Knowing/Using The Name Of God Important?

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i say no.. although the tetragrammaton appears close to 7000 times in the hebrew scriptures, the personal name of god does not.

  seems to me that god made sure that both that his personal name does not appear therein and that no one would ever actually know it or learn even how to pronounce it.

  he also made sure that his name (baring 3 hallelujahs in revelation) did not appear in the new testament.

  WT acually truthful in today's text!

  by Sanchy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ...hope to enjoy everlasting life and witness the resurrection, things unseen by the world.

  like the philosophers of paul’s day who called him an ignorant “chatterer,” most people today think that the hope we preach is sheer nonsense.

  (acts 17:18) .

  Labels are NOT arguments

  by Coded Logic in

  1. social
  2. current

  i love muslims - which is why i hate mainstream islam.

  history has categorically shown us that people are better off when there's separation of church and state, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and women's equality - all of which mainstream islam is diametrically opposed to.

  and criticizing islam doesn't make me an "islamophobe".

  Each and every member of this board reaches more people than they ever did going from D2D , with more effect.

  by smiddy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was just reflecting about this site and it`s influence on me and what i have got out of it and it came to me that whatever subject i bring up , or others bring up , the obvious thing is we engage in discussion .that`s what it`s all about .. however , the feedback we get or the input we give , far outweighs anything we ever achieved going from d2d for the wtb&ts./ wt real estate agency /publishing house .. how many times did you have a meaningful discussion with a person at a door ?, as a jw ?

  not many i would think.. the majority of times , they were not home or not opening the door to you , so even if you did meet people they were too busy to talk to you or they just were not interested.. whereas , here on this board you engage with many people from all over the world , and we can discuss a subject as long as we want.until it runs it`s course.. i think anybody who posts here has had far more satisfaction in their interaction with other people on this board than they ever experienced in the d2d work as a jw.. and i hope that people who just lurk here can see the benefits of open discussion in a forum like this without judgement and recriminations that occur in the jw religion for speaking your mind.. smiddy.

  Why have there been so many people blind to the corruption of the Watchtower Corporation ?

  by Finkelstein in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  based from many of the doctrines the wts has come forth with since its existence as publishing house which were obviously incorrect or false and propagated doesn't make you wonder why there were so many who embraced this organization with full devotion and acceptance ?

  even back in the late 1800's there was scrutinizing skepticism to what the leaders of the wts theologically taught.

  millions of people since then have accepted the teachings of a really couple novice bible theologians, who brought forth many weakly supported doctrines such as and concerning that mankind was living in the end times and all of mankind should be prepared for its imminent destruction.. very view other christian based faiths from catholicism or protestantism have made these kind of outlandish doctrinal assertions and they make up an overwhelming greater amount of practicing theologians, to those who achieved a high a level of academic training in bible theory.

  it really stands out to me just how phoney the bonds of forced brotherhood are.

  the smiles are paper thin when they see each other in hotels.

  the laughs forced.

  all they did was invite us to a convention on the other side of town in mid-july.

  my husband tried to engage them and asked where he could send them some information.

  they showed him the address for the convention center across town-yeah, they are going to get it there.

  they could at least be honest and tell him that they will never see anything that he sends to the assembly hall.
