WHAT DO Jehovah's Witnesses believe?
by Vanderhoven7 inplease add or correct the following written by helge kare fauskanger.
"for starters, imagine a distinctly insular form of protestant fundamentalism minus the trinity (god and jesus are held to be separate beings, and the holy spirit is god's active power rather than a person).
note: since the witnesses want to think of their faith as something absolutely unique, they themselves will not agree that they are either protestant or fundamentalist.. * very important to call god by his proper name of jehovah, and as noted, you must not get him mixed up with jesus.

I don`t recall anywhere in the Bible that it says JC went preaching from house to house ?
Acts 20:20 speaks of Paul doing this not JC nor is their any instruction anywhere that followers of Jesus Christ were to do this .
It was just the way Paul did it and as far as I know it was to give encouragement for beleivers anyway.

Hang on : The first congregation I attended in Melb,Aust.Vict., what did they call them back then ,the overseer ? and the assistant overseer his brother were both in their early twenties , and their mature aged parents were both in the congregation .?
And this was in the early 1960`s ?
They didn`t call them Elders then ,but it fits the criteria doesn`t it ?
I kid you not.

Is the GB equal to God & Christ?
by BoogerMan inw56 6/1 p. 346 par.
rebellion against the slave is rebellion against god.. w57 6/15 p. 370 par.
7 - it is vital that we appreciate this fact and respond to the directions of the “slave” as we would to the voice of god, because it is his provision.. w10 9/15 p. 23 par.

w56 6/1 p. 346 par. 11 - Therefore the slave’s will is Jehovah’s will. Rebellion against the slave is rebellion against God.
Doesn`t that statement say it all ?

Just read that Carl Olof Jonsson died yesterday
by slimboyfat infor newbies, who was carl olof jonsson?
he was a jw in sweden who was challenged by a householder in the 1960s, who pointed out to him that secular history books don’t agree with watchtower that jerusalem was destroyed in 607 bce, but instead place the event 20 years later.
the reason the date is important is because it is the starting date for jw chronology which leads to 1914 as the end of the gentile times, and the beginning of the last days, as jws understand it.

The young elder topic made me think of this
by enoughisenough init somehow never set well with me that if a boy got baptized that his mother couldn't pray or hold a study with him or in his presence without a headcovering.
maybe some of you were baptized as a boy in the home...how did that make you feel?
( like knowing you had rank over your mom???

How about Mary, a human, being the mother of GOD ? I Know I`m a bit off topic here as well but there you go.
Jesus being the third person of the trinity doctrine.,one of the GODHEAD.
enoughisenough ,you make good pointing out just one of the absurdities of WT theology ,however WT isn`t alone their.
Show me a religion that hasn`t ? Made a dick of themselves. ?
