i wanted to get a list of arguments that illustrate how the watchtower society is or isn't following 1st century christianity today.
thanks again everyone!.
1st century Christians :
The list is endless
Jehovah's Witnesses in 2012 resemble something between Scientology and Mormons thanks to those "Pharisees" of New York ,sorry Satan's seed in New York
.
"what if a powerful government were to hatch a plot to exterminate jehovahs witnesses as an organization.
many men in modern times have attempted to do that and failed" watchtower study edition july 15, 2012 page 23. call me cynical, but the timing, the reference to a powerful government (u.s.), and the use of the words "hatch a plot to exterminate" is right up the alley of the watchtower "the world is against us" tactics..
The governing body creates an air of paranoia when under threat .We were asked recently from the circuit overseer to have grab bags ready in case we have to leave our houses in case of emergency .Why now? Also reports from Ireland where top elders were asked to attent secret meeting where among other things were taught how to dig holes to bury dead people in a hurry .The more I read about the more I realise that these guys in the GB body are an isolated group of men with absolute power .If the United States are after them ,why create an air of paranoia for all Witnesses ? They are dangerous men creating danerous policies for 7.5 million witnesses concerning pedophilia ,blood tranfusions etc. and aggresively force them upon us .They have not got God's spirit they don't care about peoples lives or their familes ,they sooner they go the better .I won't cry for them ,they deserve all that's cming to them
we have been asked for a photocopy for each of our family's blood signed cards for the congragation's secretary records .we 've never been asked before ,is this a new thing ?
does anyone know more about it ?.
I think you nailed NeverKnew ,without realising we are living in the post-Condi era ,there must be a directive for more photocopies for blood cards and other issues as a way for the elders to have their backs covered ,will see...
i was wondering if there was anywhere someone could point to in the bible for the watchtower belief that the great crowd is not included in the new covenant.
i know that this is their line of thinking when it comes to jesus being mediator.
they say that jesus is only mediator of the new covenant and since the gc is not under the new covenant, jesus is not specifically a mediator to them.
Being a Jehovah's Witness I will admit that we have quite a few wrong doctrines but the Holy Spirit is a person and God is a Trinity ,NO !!! This is Babylon the Great doctrines ,proof is flimsy and very much streched

I was surprised to find that there is another sect that passes the wine and the bread in Jesus' Memorial but no one is partaking of it .Do you know who they are ? SATANISTS!!! They make a mockery of Jesus meal by not partaking .Now Satan in an angel of light and will use unorthodox methods to to accomplish his end result .He will never get you to become a Satanist ,it is to obvious ,so how about creating a strange doctrine where 7,5 million people see themselves as part of the great crowd and reason from the Bible that partaking is wrong .What you get ? A mascarade satanist ritual dressed as a Christian practise .Mission accomplished !

I know that sometime the keep records but this is the first time we were repeateadly told for mthe platform and privately to make sure we provide photocopies ,they are making sure we are on file for their evil doctrine ,sorry I decide what's best for my family

Great advise ,I thought they were on to us because we keep missing meetings and never really bothered with blood cards ,needless to say that all 4 children will have a full blood transfusion (knock on wood)if that will ever be the case .

the purpose of the flood, because man grieved him to.
his heart, so he started over.
did his plan work?
In the same line of thought the deluge is a hypothesis since we have not found Noah's ark ,also your existence is hypothetical because I can't see you in person all I see is some text genrated in fornt of my screen

Entirely possible,will you consider genetic manipulation as a possibility ?
