Look At the Fruits!! Says the Watchtower
by stevieb1 inwe know how much in the way of doctrine is scripturally deficient in the watchtower organization, but they will always come back and say something on the following lines:.
* look at the fruit of our works.
millions are coming to an accurate knowledge about jehovah who would never get to know him where it not for our preaching activities carried out worldwide.

WT View on Unity of Belief (1 Corinthians 1:10)
by stevieb1 inyou may have read from my other posts that i'm going to be a victim of the wt inquisition as i've told an elder that i disagree with the view that god is using an organization and that organization is the wts.
i know the elders will argue the point that we cannot have disunity in the congregation with one member believing one thing and another something else.
they will use 1 corinthians 1:10 as proof that we must be united in belief.

Peace Security & Touching Jehovah's Eyeball
by Undine insalutations,.
i have been an inactive person for five years.
i am revolted by "the good old boy's club, counting time, endless meeting attendance and being introduced as "one of our fine elder's wives" etcetera...i've read and been liberated by the crisis of conscience book and realize the smarminess that is characteristic of the "organization.

My Personal Turmoil
by stevieb1 ini am still one of jehovah's witnesses, although i disagree with a number of the tenets of the watchtower society.
i feel that i cannot preach their version of the "good news" to my neighbours and i told an inquiring elder from the congregation that i felt that their was a gulf between the society's version of the good news and that preached by christ.
they now want to give me a "shepherding call".

JW links WTC to Tower of Babel
by stevieb1 inthis quote has been extracted from wol and really shows the mentality of some within the wt movement.
how does it make you feel?.
according to abc news, the new york monoliths that were targets today were "110-story towers, the tallest buildings in the city and the fifth and sixth tallest in the world, collapsed in billows of debris following two plane crashes to their sides.

Babylon the Great
by stevieb1 inthe watchtower identifies the entity babylon the great as the "world empire of false religion" with christendom being the most reprehensible part.
as far as i can gather, the society is unique in this interpretation of the identity of babylon the great.
does anyone have a take on the identity of the harlot which differs from the society's viewpoint?.

Does Genesis Teach a Local Flood?
by JanH ini went to the homepage for ray franz' commentary press, and i found an article there promoting the idea that genesis teaches a local flood.
the author believes the genesis flood actually happened, as a local event, and that an ark actually were floating on top of local flood waters in the mesopotamia area some thousand years ago.
i recognized many arguments from a talk carl olof jonsson gave at a "christian freedom" seminar in sweden in, i think, 1996, so i guess that this article, too, is written by coj.
