All things with moderation. JWs are not to take part in politics as part of their alienation from the world. You should care about politics to a certain degree. We have Indeed a cultural war. People are getting shunned and exposed to berufsverbot or worse for expressing non PC views. Here in Europe, expressing you like even some of Trump's politics, could cost you your job

Why it's good to discuss politics (but if you don't want to, you don't have to)
by LoveUniHateExams ini was reading through this site the other day and came across several posts by different posters lamenting this site, saying what a shame it has gone from debating jw believers to talking politics and current affairs.. there are a few issues i have with these kind of posts.. first, discussing politics is actually a good thing.
well, in case you haven't noticed, we in the west are going through a culture war.
certain groups of far-leftists are trying - and sometimes succeeding - to shut down free discussion.

Why Jehovah`s Witnesses are wrong emphasising the name Jehovah.
by smiddy3 inhi friends, feel free to correct me where i`m wrong with this post.after all it`s just my observation of jw`s and the bible.. in the beginning of gods dealings with adam it was on a personal level , god to man so to speak.. god then dealt with humans via the patriarchs , then with the levi priesthood ,then judges ,( and a woman was a judge ) then kings ,somewhere in between all of this prophets played a major part ,and then came jesus christ the messiah.. and to my knowledge god has not validated a successor to him with any evidence i`ve seen .. jehovah`s witnesses claim to be christians but have with no new testament backing usurped jesus with jehovah.. this period of time ,until god says otherwise ,christians are to give honour and glory to none other than jesus christ .. that is the name that is above any other name until god says otherwise.
phil.2:9-11. not the name jehovah .the bible never says anything about a kingdom of jehovah ,the coming kingdom is the kingdom of jesus christ with his associate 144,000 earthly subjects.. this is just my understanding of what the bible actually says .. whether i believe it or not is another matter..

johnamos,
You have it in John 5:23. We are to honor the Father and the Son. Following that we are to confess the Son as my Lord and my God John 20:28. JW org does not do that.

Do Other Sheep have Eternal Life Now?
by Vanderhoven7 inone of the benefits of justification is eternal life for believers.
i found an interesting passage from the wt, june 15, 1974 which reads:.
"it is to the spirit anointed christians who will rule in that kingdom that most of the christian-greek scriptures is directed, including the promise of everlasting life.

Lost in the fog,
My father was a firm believer in that but I think many JWs do not truly understand that and the JW mags frekvently apply new testament teachings to the lifes of the great crowd people. I remember many years ago my parents and I participated in a JW gathering in a private home where my father was nearly thrown out for taking the teaching that the new testament was written to the 144,000 to the logical extreme. The doctrinal development makes it extra sad; in the Russell's day most were "running for the high calling". It makes me sad remembering my father searching the old testament for his salvation feeeling excluded from the new testament

It has always intrigued me that JW does not use tithing as do many other sects. Yet JW clearly has some other means to cash in. -

Earnest, no doubt Israel has done bad stuff. I have no doubt some Palestine kids are the absolutely worst stone throwing bully kids you can find on earth, but nothing justifies killing and torturing them.

by smiddy3 inhi friends, feel free to correct me where i`m wrong with this post.after all it`s just my observation of jw`s and the bible.. in the beginning of gods dealings with adam it was on a personal level , god to man so to speak.. god then dealt with humans via the patriarchs , then with the levi priesthood ,then judges ,( and a woman was a judge ) then kings ,somewhere in between all of this prophets played a major part ,and then came jesus christ the messiah.. and to my knowledge god has not validated a successor to him with any evidence i`ve seen .. jehovah`s witnesses claim to be christians but have with no new testament backing usurped jesus with jehovah.. this period of time ,until god says otherwise ,christians are to give honour and glory to none other than jesus christ .. that is the name that is above any other name until god says otherwise.

Phil 2:5-11 really tells the story that the JWs miss; Jehovah humbled himself as man
