one of the most common "defences" of jw organization is that "the brothers" are imperfect yet still strive to follow god's word.
"sure, they make mistakes," so the argument goes, "but so did god's people in the past, including in bible times.
" the key point is their readiness to keep studying god's word and learning from their mistakes.".
They're done...they HAVE painted themselves into a corner...and there really is "nowhere else for them to go."
There are cannonballs hitting the tower from all sides.....and they are powerless to do anything about it......and know what?.......I fucking love it.
i was just pondering this passage of scripture:.
romans 8:35-39 (new world translation).
35 who will separate us from the love of the christ?+ will tribulation or distress or persecution or hunger or nakedness or danger or sword?+ 36 just as it is written: “for your sake we are being put to death all day long; we have been accounted as sheep for slaughtering.”+ 37 on the contrary, in all these things we are coming off completely victorious+ through the one who loved us.
The gig is up....Tony has more than tight pants to worry about now....he and the rest of the buffoons know they are standing naked and it's being pointed out more and more each day.
The bullshit times have ended......their "kings" have had their day.

The cross of Christianity represents the four directions....as does the swastika...that is why there are crosses of some sort worldwide.

Ruby....They were all picturing the four directions/seasons and making them into "gods"....the four letters of the Jews was their spin on it.

Take the tetra out of a historical context......
The "four" (tetra) are found in all religions and cultures worldwide.
The four stags of the yggdrasill tree in Scandinavia for instance.

Or what about the four "heavenly Kings" in Buddhism.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Heavenly_Kings
The tetramorphs of various cultures.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetramorph
The lamassu of the Assyrians.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamassu
The Bacab of the Mayans.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacab
And loads more.....go google for yourself......all over the world.
If you notice....they all represent the four cardinal directions/four seasons/elements.
As does the cross and swastika....yin/yang and lotus flower.
The Jews take on the "four".....are the four letters.....tetragrammaton........but they all represent the same thing....the four directions/seasons/elements.......Jehovah the god of matter and nature.
