Rules & Regulations, I studied the Bible for over 40 years and I believe the opposite but that is the beauty of being an exjw , we can agree to disagree

Why is God's punishment always nonsensical?

Rules & Regulations, you can't be upset with a God that doesn't exist.If He does exist you have to accept that you're dealing with a non terrestrial entity that has existed for eons of time and He made it clear in the Bible that His ways are not our ways, and His judgements are not like our judgement.

I would recommend a book called "The Unseen Realm" by reknown Bible Scholar Michael Heitzer .In the Old Testament God delegated power far more than He did in the New Testament to other angels and that would explain some "inconsistencies" in delivery of judgements.

God killed them because they were drunk and they didn't take seriously their position as priests of the Tabernacle.That being the case, what exactly is the argument here? Has God the right to set rules ? Has God has the right to terminate life as he pleases? I'm not taking a position just trying to understand the nature of the argument here

i'm joão, from portugal.. i was a jw for about 30 years but i've stopped associating with them for about two years now.

and, lately, i've decided to dig deep and research about this cult!

oh boy!

Hi Joao, I faced the exact same situation.It build down to whether your marriage is based totally on the cult or not.At first the anger the disappointment and bitterness can be a catalyst in your relationship. I'd say go slow with your wife as indoctrination of that type is hard to break.Small steps at the time and always maintain the position that you care about the truth above anything else, make your wife slowly to accept it is your right to have doubts, questions and the right to stop being a witness.PM me if you want to discuss it further

JLE is not going anywhere soon, he is used to the good stuff and the flow of money for a very long time. He is not willing to give up this cash cow.

If you are a youtuber that makes videos you need to keep reminding your audience on a regular basis of the fact that we have nothing to do with him as xjws.

there has been comments in the news recently that the war in ukraine could be the beginning to the world war three.. i would not be surprised if it is.

.

the bible says a time will come when the peace will be taken from the earth.. revelation 6:4 another came out, a fiery-colored horse, and it was granted to the one seated on it to take peace away from the earth so that they should slaughter one another, and he was given a great sword.. have you heard what possibly this war in ukraine could lead to?.

Kosonen, correct, the jws is totally ignorant when it comes to the Antichrist

Agenda 2030 is United Nation's deadline for One World Goverment and if that is their deadline then we should pay attention how world events fit in Bible prophesy, if anything we see the raise of Russia as the "bear" beast of Daniel's prophesy

Kosovan, you are right, this war can be part of the fiery horse, of course the ultimate goal for this upheaval is the rise of the Antichrist, a concept foreign to Jehovahs Witnesses eschatology
