  Can the GB be directed by Holy Spirit and at the same time be not inspired ?

  by Chook in

  yes god directs our writings but they're not inspired, so gods directions are staggered and overlapping , so the genuine innocent believing jw has a wonderful life of overlapping bullshit.

  so next time you meet a jw priest ask them what is the difference between being directed and inspired, then i promise you will hear first hand an example of overlapping bull..

  Anointed Ratios

  by Labate in

  another recent topic got me thinking.

  has there ever been any kind of study of the ratio of male to female anointed?

  if the female anointed will be co-rulers in heaven with morris and company, why are they not represented as gb members and helpers before armageddon arrives?.

  one of the qualifications for rulership in the 1000 years is to have been martyred with the literal cutting edge technology of Re.20 : the axe. That would cut down the ratio of woman, which is a pity***. We have examples of ladies ruling, Thatcher and Merkel.

  The bible aside though; Nature appears to reward success and we all are the fruit of the great work of the female enterprise. Even the Universe can be thought of as being hatched inside the domain of a female creatrice.

  *** sorry, I did not mean more ladies should have met their fate in Tower of London, or like Marie Antoinette. More ladies should be ruling? Palmyra the Queen, prettiest King of the South you have ever seen?

  Were You Surprised You Remained a JW As Long As You Did?

  we have been told there's no place else to go.

  and to some degree mentally speaking, that is true especially if you were raised in the religion.

  at 50 i was out of the organization's clutches.

  In case you are waiting to come back, for the whole mess to be cleared up back, remember, it took "Jesus" 10 days to reach heaven, and send the HS, The universe is expanding, it might take way longer for your hopes to come true.

  Correcting it all, starting with Genesis 1:1 false Earth beginning to the "soon" in Rev. 22.

  The heavenly rulers up there are supposed to represent a cross section of all human experience, so expect to have all kinds of "anointed', and we do!.

  jezebels, with ruling experience, need not apply, ruling ( or want to) already.

  I asked an elder how is the witnessing going in Bangladesh?

  by Chook in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i said god is not giving them much of a chance to hear his message, i think it's one to 3 million ratio.

  i said if wt paid prime internet space they could beam their propaganda to everyone instantly, then you could show the world mr lett live , and explain how he is to rule the world from heaven.

  then i asked that god seems to like the anglo nations , i should of asked how many chinese and indian are on the gb..

  Bangladeshi already have their true religion. are expanding into Myanmar.

  They disfellowship using sharp instruments. Anointed would find it a shortcut to their destiny there. Rev, 20. the axe.

  Why do ones that got out come back in?

  by moreconfusedthanever in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i have not been to a meeting for about 2 years now.

  i do not intend to go back but one thing has me baffled.

  why do ones that have faded and been out for years return?

  they would go back for the same reason they did not leave,

  They did not leave because of erroneous wt beliefs, and they will fit right in where they are returning to.

  Truth does not matter to those in the so-called "truth".

  love of money

  by road to nowhere in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we are asked to not love money, work ot (i was never asked because the company had money to give away, rather had a job that needed done), no extra schooling.. then when we read the literature they make a big deal of the ones who are rich.

  so proud of abraham, david, and on.

  remember lydia?

  do not comsider the GB to be the "least of Christ's brothers"

  road to nowhere: right on. Giving to a billion $ corporation is not what Jesus had in mind when he drove home the point that you do not know who any, certainly the anonymous least of his brothers is supposed to be.

  Creationist on their death bed

  by Coded Logic in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i would really like to read the thoughts of an creationist as they lie on their deathbed.

  their honest thoughts.

  their terrors.

  You on the booze? My consciousness is always guaranteed

  sbf: I have had several operations, a heart attack, knocked myself unconscious in a fall (removed memory of how it happened too), but was always alive. so, to be alive does not guarantee experiencing it. How could being dead guarantee continues or restarted experience? and then the creator removing such unproven certainty?

  The "anointed generation" is wrong, not because it is dragging on too long, but because it is too short.

  by prologos in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  jesus taught a surviving generation, a group inhering everlasting life, an escape route to avoid a global disaster worse than the flood, a generation that "will not pass away--" an infinite generation.

  wt teaches a generation that dies, ends, passes away, at the first sign of real trouble, the great tribulation.. what do you believe about this wt assertion?

  (apart from that there is no talking snake, it is all irrelevant).

  quoted by BAD_WOLF: Only the survivors of Armageddon would be the Generation that does not pass away, and the Anointed are not it. wt take note.

  A bible secret the WT seem to not understand.....

  Revelation 3:10 talks of those who will be exempted and kept from the so called great tribulation. The great tribulation for those who didn't prove themselves. That scripture alone throws out the entire WT teaching about the GT of the bible.
