  JW's & eBay

  by The Fall Guy in

  i just came across a pair of jw's on ebay who are flogging off nearly 2000 "religious" items.. is it just me, or are jw's hypocrites when they make cash by selling old light publications which now contain "wrong teachings," or much worse, by selling books etc.

  which were created by members of apostate christendom and contain teachings which contradict their self-appointed "faithful slave?

  is there a bible example/principle here?.

  I just looked at the link. Some of these items seem to be quite rare publications. Perhaps it's a fake front for the GB selling off their surplus WT library books to make money for their Sunday scotch fund?

  I have to say that I firmly accept that the JW elders I knew followed the example described in the Bible when they gathered together for their meetings. I have no doubt whatsoever in my mind.

  They copied the Pharisees with their nit-picking to a T.

  after reading a few comments here, i thought it was time for me to get a copy of "the silver sword" for my own occasional research and occult practices.

  so i thought i would see if jw.org would offer a way that i could purchase a printed copy (not digital) of the new world translation.

  as i browsed, it occurred to me that i might also like to have a copy of the... what was it?

  I always thought it was a hoot that the Byington Bible translated John 1:1 as "the Word was God."

  Don't you know that you can read the Byington Bible aka The Bible In Living English directly from the WT website?

  Here's the link for you to do so.

  Printed copies of the RNWT are available inside the Kingdom Halls. Just ask someone who attends to get you one. There's bound to be someone you know who is pimo.

  Its been 2000 years now since Jesus Christianity was Established and now today we have 40000 + Christian sects ?

  emperor constantine might have got the message 17 centuries ago but surely god must by now realize that the mission has failed .?.

  surely he should as he has on past experience in the old testament now approach a world leader of either the usa ,england ,russia ,china ,or the united nations or even israel and make his judgement`s known .?.

  why has he been so quiet all of these years ?

  For each religion there's a starting point and then dogma and beliefs change over time as ideas are revised or culled.

  Jehovah's Witnesses have done this and claimed that it was the light getting brighter through divine revelation.

  However the early Christian Church did the very same thing, to which JWs point their finger at the history and claim that it is evidence of the great apostasy from the teachings of the disciples of Jesus.

  You can't have it both ways. Every person can interpret the Bible as they see fit, declaring "no prophecy springs from private interpretation but as God has moved them by holy spirit" (broad paraphrase). If someone says they disagree then the new church decries that they are going against God and his spirit! Just as the JW Org does.

  The whole thing is a joke. Religions are all man-made.
