  i was doing research on the political powers in the u.s. and what exactly was the drive, goals, and ambitions between the different parties.

  i stumbled upon information regarding the illuminati/rothchild family having great power throughout the world with different parties and the rothchild's goal to have a new world order from hundreds of years back and how they were involved in satanic worship.

  it was interesting to see that c.t.

  I thank you all for the info about Russell`s belief and connection with the Zionist movement.

  How many present day Jehovah`s Witnesses Know anything about that ?

  And would they realize the implications ?

  a dyed in the wool witness actually posted this as if non-witnesses invented unheard of terminology,.

  "those who devote their life to criticize jehovah’s witnesses use a lot of very specific expressions and ideas common only to them:.

  And all of them and many more are true , if only he/she would stop and consider for a moment or two he/she would ,if not join us here at least cease associating with a cult religion and be free.

  Jehovah`s Witness Elders who were Business men in The Congregations I Attended.

  by smiddy3 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  a number of topics have covered work experiences by members who have encountered crticism for having a full time job .in the last few congregations i had attended this was never an issue as elders had businesses they owned and employed brothers and sisters .. while i personally never worked for a jw, both my young sons did at one time or another and my wife did also .i have always worked full time in secular employment and have never been criticised for doing so .and to my knowledge nobody else ever had that experience.. in the first cong.i attended an po as they were called at the time was an insurance agent and his bro.

  was an assistant po also worked with the same ins,agency.. other congs,i attended one elder was an owner of a cabinet making firm while about 3 other different elders were self employed builders who ran their own business and employed others to work for them .. at the same time a couple of ms servants had their own plastering business going on supporting these elders business.. so i`m just wondering whether this is just depending on where you are from in the world and what time period we are talking about.. the time i`m talking about was in the sixties and seventies and the area was in s.e.

  Do you believe that this life is all there is

  the bible records resurrections and there is orher evidence besides that gives hope.

  what do you think, is there enough evidence to believe in another life?.

  Correct me if I am wrong. According to the Bible the only reason why humans die is because of the sin of disobedience by Adam & Eve ? And that when a person dies he/she has paid the price " the wages sin pays is death" Rom.6:23

  So if that was the only reason a person dies anyone who has died and been resurrected should never die again ?

  But that`s not the case is it , so the Bible must be wrong. IMHO.

  20 Things I Don't Understand about Jehovah's Witnesses

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i don’t understand how jehovah’s witnesses can rightly claim:.

  that less than 150,000 faithful christians existed prior to the 20th century....when allegedly millions were martyred during the first 3 centuries of the common era alone.

  unique ability to interpret scripture...when interpretation of prophecy has been 100% wrong for over 130 years.. .

  1. that the 1914 generation will not pass away when babies born in 1914 are 108 years old today? (How long is a generation in the gospels?)

     I can list 2 scriptures that say a generation is approximately 50 years in length .

     Vanderhoven7

     1. Mathew 1:17

     2.Luke 3:23-38

     3.Matt.1 - 17 , Abraham born 2018 - Jesus born 2 BC equals 2016 years 42 generations .= 48 years.

     So how long is ageneration according to the Scriptures / Bible ?

     48 years
