Lies Lead to Loss of Life
by biometrics in11 in the days of jeremiah there were false prophets who tried to keep the people from doing what gods prophet jeremiah told them to do.
these false prophets worked injury to the people and brought about the destruction of many.
some of them will by no means pass away until all things occur.luke 21:32.. .

It must be God's organization because ...
by biometrics inhow many times have you heard a jw say something along the lines of "this must be god's organization because of [insert reason here]".
most of those reasons could equally apply to almost any organization on earth, including secular businesses.. the most recent one i heard was from an elder trying to convince someone why the watchtower is god's organization.
his reason was because "it [the watchtower] wouldn't have lasted this long without god's backing".

Has anyone ever used a non-NWT (New World Translation) bible at meetings / study?
by biometrics inabout 1 year ago (before i faded), i purchased an old king james bible from ebay and started using it in the meetings and when a brother came over to study with me.. a common reaction of fellow jws was to stare at the bible, then say "what type of bible is that?
", then they'd sometimes ask to look at it, and flip to john 1:1. when they saw what it said, they'd treat it like it was apostate material, even though a few decades earler it was the same bible jws used.. i strongly encourage any lurkers/faders to use another bible at the meetings and see what type of reactions you get.. .

Why do JWs take 10 pages to answer a simple question?
by biometrics inwhenever i ask jws a simple question about the bible i get ten or more pages in reply.. for example, i ask: "why is lazarus conscious after death (lazarus and the rich man in luke 16)?".
the brother says he'll get back to me.
then he gives me get 10+ pages of printed wtbs cd-rom material and asked if i've been reading apostate sites (i think they want to da me).. so i ask another question: "why didn't jesus just use another example that didn't involve consciousness in a burning hell?
