For those who are STILL believing Christians...
by BoogerMan inthe latest watchtower of august 2020 discusses on page 15, "how will the resurrection likely take place?".
since learning real truths as opposed to the org's version of truth, has your view of the resurrection changed significantly?
just one example - regardless of psalm 37:9,11,29: matthew 5:5 & revelation 21:3,4, do you now believe that our destination is heaven rather than earth?.

Kingdom now, not in the future. The Kingdom is existence and can be entered now by those chosen ones whom He awakens from their slumber 🥰 -

Voting and JWs
by Davros inwith the upcoming elections, the campaigns and political rhetoric are ramping up.
(ramping up is an understatement lol) .
i remember a few years ago, gb member brother herd mentioned during one of his talks that several witnesses were either reproved or disfellowshipped for voting for a certain presidential candidate who won...twice.

Funny I never thought I would learn something new about JW. In our family voting was out of the question 😁😁😁 -

Sin and death - how does it make sense to ANY believer of ANY religion?
by BourneIdentity insince adam and eve’s fall, we are all sinners.
it’s what we do, there is no way to change it, sinning is a daily part of life.
there are major sins, but most of us commit minor ones everyday in words, thoughts or deeds.

Nonsense culfty, the human race is on the path of destruction as clever people know. Improved living conditions means more overpopulation and polution, the western world will not exist in 50-100 years due to mena immigration. Your atheist world looks promising

Half banana, you are a fallen sinner by nature like the rest. You are out that horrid human family too. Your stage name implies it too. Half, not full 🤔

Bible canon conundrums
by joey jojo inthis is a topic that i find really interesting- how the bible, in particular, the new testament was compiled and how the jw organisation strives to negate, scoff at and diminish the influence of the catholic church in its development.. here is the official stance of the org: .
https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/library/r1/lp-e/all-publications/watchtower/the-watchtower-1963/april-15.
'the roman catholic church claims responsibility for the decision as to which books should be included in the canon, and reference is made to the councils of hippo (a.d. 393) and carthage (a.d. 397), where catalogues of books were formulated.

Well we have a good mix of books. James clearly have a mission in telling us that we should do good. Ephesians says good works is prepared for us to walk in. Revelation has been largely misunderstood dealing entirely with things soon to happen in the 1st century.. testament Indeed 🥰🥰

Biblical ignorance and they have a form of that enforced agreement that Christianity once had and atheism dreams of 🤭. I have a current discussion with an elder and one of his big points is that Christianity should be united. I tell him human unity only comes by force🤭. But thumps up for him daring to do ping pong with an apostate 🤭🤭

The Eden account is a brilliant way to introduce the subject of sin. Why does the good God's prime creation display so much evil? Well because they are fallen and flawed. But God has provided means by which we can be reconciliated with God, God has not deserted us but because the way back to him is not to spit in his face and be blasphemous

How have Jehovah`s Witnesses ever gotten away with being a Tax Exempt Religion ?
by smiddy3 ini can never get my head around this one ?
don`t the powers that be ever really investigate religions that claim exemption from paying taxes because they claim they are a not for profit religion ?.
you would have to be a brain dead imbecile not to see that the religion known as the" watchtower bible and tract society" otherwise known as "jehovah`s witnesses" are nothing more than a religious publishing house that have made x amount of $$$$$ over the years since their inception in the late 1800`s to this day.

You pay taxes if your activity is business related. JWs are mostly giving away litterature and videos

Well you Americans are lucky. Here in Europe the commies put state regulations on Churches so they open last
