Get well soon!

A clogged nose and sore throat attack me twice each year. Thats a sign that my immune system is active.

You should not forget to relax exhaustingly, because your soul and body now needs a pause and your immune systems wants to recover.

November WT God's View Of War

by JW_Rogue in

did anybody else read this article and just think wth?.

sometimes god approves of war.. sometimes god doesn't approve of war.. when the israelites fought battles and won it was because god blessed them.. when they lost it was because god had not blessed them.. sometimes god fights for oppressed ones.. sometimes they must wait and have faith.. it is so clear that the bible contradicts itself on this issue and that the nation of israel had a totally different view of god than the early christians.

it is also clear that the nation of israel was highly superstitious and would attribute every battle's outcome to the whims of a higher power.

Thor: War and love ... that doesn not match at all.

YHWH: Act 2, Scene 2, Polonius ...

“Doubt thou the stars are fire,
Doubt that the sun doth move,

Doubt truth to be a liar,

But never doubt I love.

Thor: Hamlet.

YHWH: Mhm. Its not a matter of obidience or fighting for me but of not doubting in my love. They snatched away my longings for Ashera. King Josia killed the temple prostitutes and destroyed all symbols of me and Ashera. They didnt understand that she is my spirit, that she inspired me, only she is the girl I always loved. Alle people of Canaan knew once that YHWH and Ashera are a pair and that we loved each other very much. Then they made a warriorGod of me and innihialted all images of Ashera and Me.

YHWH "Oh how much they twist, how they twist"... suffering as if they cruzified him a second time
they twist the Word that a awaked in their hearts...oh.

Thor felt inconvenient in the face of the noticable pain in the air. His hammer dithered, his heart repented. He felt sorry for God and seemed to understand.

Thor: "So the war-stories in the Bible.... the priestly scribes, the deuteronomits added those war narratives only to ... to show how mighty and awesome you were, but thus they misinterpreted you? I really pity you. The bible is not your book but a collection of priestly narratives, of deuteronmists, an always revisioned and amended text and you had no chance to delete the evil verses because they would have stoned you and lately cruzifed you? Oh my dear, with that Bible you didnt do something good for yourself at all, if you ever wanted to have that stuff written down at all."

YHWH "You northern people didnt have that book and nevertheless you found into the civilisation of your community, that I planted in your hearts, it is my semen, isn't it?"

Thor "I am open for changes, though I cant image how that should work, talking about your preaching witnesses..... and media.... meditate..ing or what? May I finish and come to an end with my thoughts before we start doint that together ...mediating?"

YHWH "Not really, dont you see that I am extremly mad about "r e l i g i o n s" at all, id rather sing or paint than talking about your questions.

Thor "My father the Great Odin taught me that I may never begin a fight, only defend myself if necessary. But I should always be heartiful and love should be my motivation. My Power Sword thus would be only a symbol for my Might, and my HAMMER only a symbol for my shattering influence. But I should never use it to harm someone. ..You listen?"

YHWH "Nothing new so far. Havent we... my brother son, my sister spirit and my mother like humble self always advocated this? I appreciate that you Northern people were so loving, that you even ascribe to your Father God Odin the loving kindness of a father, a honour that he has only copied from me then, but its okay. Oh did i interrupt you?"

Thor: "Before loosing my thread...People are confused about you ADONAI. They will never understand why you ordered your people Israel to kill innocent residents of the promised land. Did you give them your blessing for being obidient warriors? And Why should you have killed residents of Canaan at all. For believing in Father EL or Lord BAAL, the first god of the mountains and stars and the other of the Thunder and the weather? How would combatting against any mountains and weather Gods not be stupid? I mean was it worth the war at all, because Thunder and Lighning exists even today, like I exist, I Thor, I am a witness?"

YHWH "Who believes in such mist and dirtiness about me?"

Thor Odinson entered the sanctuary with caution preparing his mind to meet the Eternal Bearer of the Undistinguisable Tetragram. Thor vs. Jehovah. A real and necessary battle? Thors visit aimed to explore the deeper meaning of the 4 letters, if they had something to tell him or not. Would Y H W H bring peace without sword and wars from North to South? Mjolnir Thor's hammer made of Uru metal was dithering for any case. Silence was in that moment lying over the desert and the oasis named Gan Eyden [Garden of Eden in hebrew] next to the mountains of Seir, where the Unpronouncable and Unvisible deigned to live inmidst of egyptian winged cherubim. It was silent like at dawn of a war.

Would it come to a spiritual trial of strength between Thor's dwarven crafted Power Sword and the Name Bearers' ever changing chameleon like Silver Sword? Would his sword be a match in a real fight with the FireSword in the east of the garden? At that moment the chances seemed to be equal. All Swords were only blazing gently in the morning sun.

Thor intended to make a peaceful visit and his PowerSword was destined to remain in the sheath. But what if, what if Adonai in his rage about the Northern people went so far to take his changes?

Restraining the lightning of the Sword and but with low thunder he slowly walked between the two curtains awaiting immediatly some large revelation of power or phenomenon. But nothing happened. No God had ever entered the Sanctum before.. but nothing happened. ...He would fight for his rights...for sure. .. Why should his thunder and lightning not be strong enough to defeat an unvisible God. They definitely existed like he existed.

Im not afraid of you. Come on, show yourself“ he thought.

He looked around and saw the ...aarkkk of the covenant .. wow ...how beautiful. But didnt they tell us that there was never an ark in the sanctum? How did it get here? I thought it was an ever unfullfilled hope but now when I see it standing here ... wow... a really impressive symbol but I wanna speak with you about ....

YHWH: " Your important role in the comics definitely awakened you, you got into your head to come here and complain about me?

Thor: "You give the impression to be real, you influence people with your silver sword that is ever changing and confusiong but instead of explaining your word personally you are always hiding yourself. Less and less people believe in you. We should talk about a role in a comics for you."

YHWH "Ha, why after all don't you complain about other Gods Zeus, Dionysos, Zarathustra, the persians, the egypgians, or your father Odin , meaningless too..why exactly about me?

Thor "You are the "E T E R N A L" ...perhaps? Shouldnt you remain meaningful, at least more than for the usage of mythical bible comics for children?

YHWH "Dont you know that you are standing on a holy ground, that I am only tolerating you in my possession, in my beautiful garden and temple while you are besmirtching my name and my house with your PowerSword, hammer and dirty thoughts? It would be better if you stopped argumenting, because I dont argument, my witnesses dont argument too, they only preach."

Thor "What would you propose"?

YHWH "We could stop talking and begin meditating togehter, i heard that is a popular eastern method of relaxation, but hunted by the catolic witchhunters because it centeres about inner personality, therefore it sounds exiting for me. I like to speak silently with my inner personality that widens my horizon.'"

If you still believe, do you go to church?

by ThinkerBelle in

while i'm still finding my journey and figuring out what exactly i believe in, i'm curious to know if others on this board who do still believe in a god attend other churches and what drew you to them.

sorry if this topic has been brought up before, i tried to do a search, but didn't find what i was looking for.. having been born and raised in jwland, how easily do you give up those doctrines that have been so thoroughly engrained?

even sort of celebrating (more like acknowledging, no party) my son's birthday seemed so strange to me because i've never done that, but it felt good to see him smile about it.

TheWonderofYou

I wish you much luck on your journey. On your yourney you will have to trust to your instinct. What is really important for youself.

If you like communities, You can be openmindend and you should try out different forms of community. Not only the religious groups. Depending on your interests you could e.g. attend meetings of caritative organisations, what would bring satisfaction and recognition.

If you are very engaged in theology and leading of a community you could try a protestant group where women even can be pastors ;-) The same if you like reading the bible and praying together. Many of these groups are very tolerant and have great group activities with caritative character. It may depend on the pastor in the community.

Watchtower HATES being compared to Catholic Church - but if the shoe fits...

by Zoos in

remember this?.

.

well how about this?.

TheWonderofYou

OrphanCrow

I remind that you posted the comparison in my thread about RC 3 months ago. Prologos than asked 2 questions

prologos4 months ago
OrphanCrow: are all Catholics served the wine?, or, just like the JWs, denied it, but allowed to watch the special class member ( priest) drink?

TheWonderofYou Does not the Governing Body composite pope speak "ex Cathedra" too? Flag Dislike Like

Concerning the sacramental wine.

I asked the same question many times when I watched the priest cleaning drinking wine and then cleaning the cup in the mass.

I found out that in former time in the churches everybody could drink his wine, everbody who wanted got it.

The church had large vineyards in the past. The wine for the ceremony had to be a special clean wine, a special breeding. But then it became to complicated to serve wine for everyone, the catolic form of communion was not an annual but daily wine-drinking. Finally they did not want to spill some wine during the holy ceremony (a handling, technical matter thus), what then lately resulted in quiting the wine emission during the mass at all.

The wine is now only drunken by the priest during ceremony, but if you want to drink wine you can go to the priest and you will receive it even today without any problem for a special occasion. Generally in liturgy the sacrament of host (bread) represents the wine as well.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacramental_wine

Anyway the priests are not acting like a special class comparable to the "anointed one" at JW,
when they dring the wine, as you can drink wine if you asked the priest too.

The church teaches that all christians are Priests and body of christ in the ceremony

sharing the same fate of death and resurrection during the communion, not only a few.

A well-known bishop said once that the "office" to be a R&F christian

is of more importance than the "office" of a bishop.

"Now, brothers....learn the rule: “Do not go beyond the things that are written.....” (1 Cor. 4:6)

by The Searcher in

clearly, the org's henchmen haven't "learned the rule", and go way beyond what's written at romans 14:1 .

"welcome the man having weaknesses in his faith, but do not pass judgment on differing opinions.

" (rnwt).

TheWonderofYou

"It is evident that there is a distinction between a ‘falling’ due to weakness and the ‘falling away’ that constitutes apostasy. The latter implies a definite and willful withdrawal from the path of righteousness. (1Jo 3:4-8; 5:16, 17) Whatever its apparent basis, whether intellectual, moral, or spiritual, it constitutes a rebellion against God and a rejection of his Word of truth.—2Th 2:3, 4;

This is a disinguisssshed citation of the tower's article about "apostasy".
The tower looks like a chess piece btw. As usual the Tower uses the bible text book as text module for a teaching.

Okay we know that in all christian churches exist "church laws" like in the RC and protestant. This church laws know excommunciation and other disciplinary measures too. Does this mean that disciplinary measures for apostasy are a common accepted pratices in all christian denominations?

If yes, on which basis are they installed?

Is this church discipline by e.g. excommunation, banning for apostate teachers like women that are celebrating messes against the church law in catolic church not the same blossom of legalistics as JW have except that the shunning is more intensive?

I only want to remind you how apostates were treated in middle age by the church in the so called "INQUISTION". The methods of inquisition in finding out the thoughts of your mind and your clear consience are similar to the JUDICIAL COMMITTEE AGENDA.

2 Thessalonians 3:14

If anyone does not obey our instruction in this letter, take special note of that person and do not associate with him, so that he will be put to shame.
