  Watchtower is Run Like the Mafia

  by Sea Breeze in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  anybody else notice this?

  the have a syndicate (governing body) regional bosses (district overseers), captians (circuit overseers), and elders are their "made men" that enforce policy at street level.

  if you run your mouth too much, they wipe out your whole family (disfellowshipping).

  JW's are NOT connected to the WTBTS....

  by BoogerMan in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  .....just as gerrit losch of the g.b.

  claimed he has nothing to do with it - or vice versa.. i suppose that's why him & his jw g.b.

  cronies assume total control of the wtbts annual meeting every year - because they're totally separate from each other!

  Parting Letter

  by Konagirl in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  a friend of mine was compelled to reach out to as many members as possible in her congregation, by sending them the following letter that i would like to share.. to my brothers and sisters,.

  i’m sure you’ve realised by now that something isn’t quite right with me as i haven’t been around in months.

  the truth is i have been going through a crisis and the last few months have been the hardest time of my life.

  An excellent read ,using the scriptures and those who believe the bible to be true.

  Every Jehovah`s Witness should have a copy of this letter.

  If possible.

  Thanks for sharing this Konagirl

  I must remember this the next time I get a chance to talk to the JW`s Luke 16:19 - 31.

  I like that.

  Good point.

  If I`ve got this right ?

  1st Q.

  Do you or your religion believe when you die ,you still exist in the hereafter ? Without or before any such resurrection ?

  Answer : No

  Then why did Jesus not refute that in Luke 16 : 19-33?

  He seems to agree with it ? yes ?
