  The once flourishing Soviet republic of Ukraine has been turned into a Nazi hell by the American occupiers. I can say with absolute certainty that the United States is carrying out genocide of the population of Ukraine. They methodically send Ukrainians to their death under the pretext of confrontation with Russia, they shoot and hang, or corrupt Ukrainian children in towns and villages. It is scary to watch when our troops enter the villages, and there are dozens of hanged children”—hanged by “the United States and NATO.”

  Resolution in Korean assembly in 1971

  to jehovah's witnesses.

  we express our position on [jehovah's witnesses] under the [watchew tower bible and booklet association] as follows.. .

  1. jehovah's witnesses claimed that jesus christ was brought back in the fall of 1874 rather than 1914 and planned people to come out of the established church, so this organization is regarded as a false prophet.

  Doesn`t common sense tell you to report child sexual abuse to the appropriate authorities regardless whether it was a mandatory requirement or not ?

  Oh I forgot, common sense and being a JW doesn`t compute !

  I should know I was a JW for 32 years .

  Newtons prediction for end of the world

  by dothemath in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  maybe this man (sir isaac newton), has more credibility than fred franz in picking a date for armageddon ?.

  interestingly, newton(brilliant mathematician, everyone must know him) was very interested in the bible and revelation .. .

  what newton tried to do was determine a particular timescale for the apocalypse.

  The biggest mistake Sir Isaac Newton made was beleiving in the Bible as truth of GODS word.

  So don`t hold your breath about 2060 or any other date that anybody comes up with.

  How do Witnesses reconcile Isaiah 43:10 with John 1:1

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  2. beliefs

  something does not compute.

  you are my witnesses,”declares jehovah, yes, my servant whom i have chosen, so that you may know and have faith in me and understand that i am the same one.before me no god was formed, and after me there has been none.

  isaiah 43:10. in the beginning was the word, and the word was with god and the word was god.

  We can’t comprehend a being without beginning and cause because we exist in space and time, whereas God transcends all that.

  That still doesn`t explain how only one (1) and not many more exist ?

  I still can`t get my head around how their can be only one GOD ? If such a being exists in the first place . If by however means one (1) GOD came into existence it defies beleif / logic that there was only one (1) ?

  If it happened once it could happen again ? Either in the past or sometime in the future ?

  Doesn`t this make sense ?

  Or am I alone in my thinking/reasoning.

  "The Truth"

  by Ding in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we all know that jws consider the wt religion to be "the truth" and refer to it as such.. granted, that phrase is used repeatedly in the literature and from the platform.. but it's obvious that much of what the organization used to require jws to teach house-to-house as important truths--even within our own lifetimes--has been abandoned.

  it's been replaced by "new light" and "refined understanding.

  what's meant by "the 1914 generation" is a prime example.. in fact, i think it would be hard to find another religion that has changed so many of its teachings, especially in such a short period of time.. so why do jws still believe their religion to be "the truth"?.

  1. Emphasis on the name "Jehovah"

  And yet the 1st edition of "Aid To Bible Understanding" claimed that Yahweh was probably the more accurate pronunciation of God`s name but the GB settled on the name JEHOVAH because it was the most popular name in use ?

  In use by whom I ask ? why christendom of course ?

  So they just followed christendom`s religions and not what was the more accurate pronunciation.

  Judgment Day

  by Fisherman in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  a specific “day,” or period, when particular groups, nations, or mankind in general are called to account by god.

  .

  “i solemnly charge you before god and christ jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead,”- 2 tim 4:1. seems like sins are not paid by dying or the ransom if there is a judgment in-spite of it.

  Clarification :

  just for the record could you explain once and for all if you are for or against the judging of sin/evil by God?

  If I can rephrase that ?

  just for the record could you explain once and for all if you are for or against the judging of sin/evil and leave GOD out of it?

  Yes ,for the judging of evil by the appropiate authorities , and according to the Bible the authorities are to be obeyed because it is an arrangement of GOD.Rom.13:1-7
