This week's WT study...made me so sick.....
by stuckinarut2 inthis week's study april 15th 2014 was called "do you see the one who is invisible?".
it was perhaps one of the most depressing, controlling, fear-mongering, stress inducing, doctrinally incorrect, hate-inspiring, judgemental, cult-like, irrational, hyped-up, critical, crazy, stretched out, fanciful, illogical, burdensome, inflated, coersive, manipulative, and brain-snappingly weird stuff i have read for some time.... (but i'm sure it was just a rehash and repeat of previous stuff...for the new masses....).
i had to keep up a sane appearance while in the hall, and even answer some garbage while this was being 'studied'... my cognitive disonance must be so strong now, because i found this one of the hardest ones to endure....now that i am home, i have poured a stiff drink and am trying to clear my head...... one paragraph was classic:.

Watchtower Really Does Totally Take The Position of Jesus
by OnTheWayOut inwatchtower has said that jesus is not the mediator of anyone but for the anointed.
then they tell you that they are jehovah's organization and that the flock should obey them.. basically, the watchtower corp. and it's governing body is taking the place of jesus as the mediator for people.
christianity, even by it's name, focuses on making jesus known.

APRIL= MEMORIAL = Time to review the "Mystery Doctrine" secrets
by Terry inapril is memorial month, and a great time to learn about the watch tower mystery doctrine.. .
several former members of the wts have written about a secret teaching called the "mystery doctrine" about the anointed as the christ.. this doctrine, which has never been discussed publically since the death of jf rutherford, but which, equally, has not been repudiated either, teaches that the word "christ" refers to a person, the one we know as jesus, but the expression "the christ" has been invested with a separate, deeper meaning.
it refers to the "christ class" those making up the 144,000 plus jesus .. writing in his book, "apocalypse delayed" penton tells us:.

Why judgment is to begin at the house of God?
by Kosonen in" for the time is come for judgment to begin at the house of god: and if it begin first at us, what shall be the end of them that obey not the gospel of god?
and if the righteous is scarcely saved, where shall the ungodly and sinner appear?
"- 1peter4:17-18. why for god to judge his own house?

new thinking after reading Collosians
by Honeybucket ini read the book of collosians and now im really not sure whether the trinity concept is completely false.
