  Geoffrey Jackson- soliciting?

  by molybdenum in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i listened to geoffrey jackson’s latest talk “assisting our brothers materially “.

  jackson presented some arguments, one of which was….jesus did not stop the widow from putting money in the contribution box in the temple.

  basically saying regardless of your financial situation you have to donate.

  What is it about GOD that he always needs money from his worshipers ??? Even in Bible times he was always out for precious gems ,gold and silver ?

  Does he ever actually ever get it ?

  prayer : Here I go again !

  The devout elderly Jew who is praying at the wailing wall for the most of his eighty years of life and asked by a religious journalist what he prays for and what is his response .

  Jew : I pray every day for peace among all peoples and nations to live in harmony with each other ,including Jews and Arabs.

  Journalist : And how do you think that`s going .

  Jew : Well sometimes i think i`m just talking to a brick wall .

  It makes sense : If people can believe that a GOD has no beginning and no end ?

  The same could be said said about the Universe ? Why not ?

  Why is there something rather than nothing ? Why not ?

  The universe might be eternal there may be no beginning .

  And now for my own two cents worth :

  How do we know whether or not the Universe itself is a living thing

  So the reality is ,there is no Armageddon,Great Tribulation its all in a book of fiction written two thousand years ago.

  Probably one of the first SCI-Fi / Fantasy series of books ever produced.

  So Sorry To Hear About The Tornado`s & loss of Life in the USA .

  the destruction that hit what, 6 states, ?

  was really devastating.i hope none of our friends on this forum were victims of it.. my thoughts go out to all of those living in those areas that are affected .. i can imagine the double standards that jw`s have about this tragedy ,on the one hand being concerned about fellow jw`s that may have been affected ,loss of life or property ,and on the other hand rejoicing that it is yet another sign of how close armageddon is to destroy all opposers and apostates ..

  Not to be cynical but there is always DONATIONS attached to these kinds of petitions ?

  Doesn`t God own everything ?

  What`s he always needing donations for ?

  I`m sorry may1981 ,I forgot to welcome you ,stick around you might learn a lot about GOD on this forum.

  Take care.

  Governing Body Update #9...Jehovah is guiding his people during the pandemic

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  david splane starts off with, ''i thought we might reflect on jehovah's goodness and the way he's been guiding his people during the pandemic.''.

  not once in his talk does he mention that jehovah would give all members a super immune system that would fight off the virus.

  neither does he mention that jehovah would reduce positive covid-19 numbers, hospital admissions and covid-19 deaths of his people.. mr. splane: how does the almighty, all knowing jehovah guide his people during the pandemic?.
