  If I may add: par 19. When confronted with religious controversies, he appealed neither to his vast wisdom nor to his unparalleled experience. Instead, he held up the Scriptures as the final authority.

  Jesus' unparalleled experience, according to wt, includes the creation of the universe. Why would he have stuck with, and endorsed, the erroneous ancient scriptures and not have exposed the impossible flood story, the life sustaining fish interior, the flat Earth temptation of Satan? and other bible myth?

  in par. 19 wt promises to do the same. It is all based on stories, from par 3 on. than you blondi.

  I hate the Watchtower but I really still hate the Trinity Jesus is NOT God!

  by Witness 007 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  some bibles use the term "worship" when refering to jesus...at times people did fall down and bow to him........this doesn't show he was god!

  the greek term; proskeyneo, means to prostrate oneself, to bow down and show honour.

  now, this was done for jehovah.....and his representatives....jesus israelite kings and priests....but for the honour of jehovah not as creature worship which even angels would refuse.. also i studied the non-biblical early church gospels which really does show a slow decline over 150 years, into the trinity as the watchtower claims...........although i still hate the watchtower society at least i learnt something that wasn't a lie..

  Only Jehovah's people

  today i went to a large talk.. there was no arguing or swearing, just kindness and respect.. it was orderly and calm.. trash was put in the proper place.

  people were even picking up litter that wasn't even theirs.. the speakers were passionate and inspiring.. the entire event was orchestrated by volunteers.. it was march for science, not a dub ass-embly.

  so much for "only jehoopla's people" behaving like this at large events..

  the Oshkosh home - build aircraft meeting billed itself as the largest clean outdoor meeting in the [western] world, and it was, clean fun. dedicated to creativity, not only spirits soaring. and: unregimented, no combat for seats at the starting bell.

  Jws have a lot to learn , but "--will they ever learn--?"

  At the time of its happening I wrote to Australia's Minster for Foreign Affairs about the Malawi situation. His reply was ambivalent. Did he know something the wt was not telling us?

  Did not the Queen greet the president of Malawi later, so: the Commonwealth decided not to interfere in the internal affairs of a member?

  Jehovah Witnesses Unaware They Are Fulfilling Bible Prophecies

  by Wakeupcall2u in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  jehovah witnesses unaware they are fulling bible prophecies.

  for many of us witnesses that have left either as stricken lost sheep or unlawfully disfellowshiped please consider that our brothers & sisters in the synagogues of kingdom halls are misled & need our help in trying to pull them out of the fire.

  the test now on them is about just how they are treating their unlawfully excluded (disfellowshiped) brothers & sisters, as foretold at isaiah 66. at present they sit in judgement on us the growing great crowd who have come out & they are prepared with hard- heartedness to condemn their brothers & sisters to a final everlasting death, by running away as spiritual cowards refusing us a cup of life giving water (truth) matt 10: to explain the apostasy in their temple the disgusting thing in the holy place.

  The Liberians took the issue as seriously as the witnesses. The ovens were not hot enough this time.

  Re: those soldiers, herd Instinct, once in action, and a mob starts this way, there is no stopping, and individuals will lose their personal identity, limitations. Stay out of mobs near flags.

  The Tribe of Dan was NOT a genuine tribe of Israel

  by fulltimestudent in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the claim that dan was not a genuine tribe is not new, but as the haaretz article explains there is newer archaeological evidence to suggest that the contemporary claims about the tribe of dan have some merit.. so check out the haaretz claims at: http://www.haaretz.com/jewish/archaeology/1.756385.

  but there are wider implications in the story.

  if this particular group of people did not travel from egypt (as god's word of truth also claims) then they must have lived in canaan all the time.. then consider that palestine (canaan) was for so long part of the egyptian empire, and we begin to see that most of story about the origins of the israelites is mythical..

  If so, what had gone on with this tribe that made it so inconsequential?

  fpr one thing (in the bible) that tribe opted out of the land partition and took up territory in the North, and kept idos to centralize worship away from Jerusalem in the south. Somebody had to leave to make room for Joseph's double portion. His double portion is payback for his brothers ousting him. so justice.

  British Israel taught that Dan later went even further north and founded the city of Danzig on the baltic.

  interesting read: Australia, not Austria: 40% reduction in blood transfusion was accompanied with a 60% drop in postoperative death.? Correlation does not prove causation! blood transfusion just another organ transplant?

  marginal notes: Par 19: "--[Jesus} appealed neither to his vast wisdom, nor to his unparalleled experience--"

  comment: and that is obvious, because, how could he refer to a flood that could have never happened, to a fish swallowing a surviving man for 3+ days, not object to Satan's flat Earth temptation, if he recalled the facts?
