Maybe because Charles Taze Russell wasn't around back then, LOL.

Does The WTS Have The Right To Interpret The Bible For Mankind?
by Latin assassin from Manhattan inif the apostles, who were closest to jesus and chosen by him, never wrote their own interpretation of the old testament, why does the wts feel they can interpret the entire bible and still get it wrong so often?
if in fact, there was a governing body for christians back in the 1st century, why didn't they go about interpreting daniel's prophecies the way the current gb does today?
if the 1st century christians were god's chosen people, why didn't they go from door to door placing scrolls filled with bible interpretations?

God's prophets nowadays are the ones that teach what God has revealed to them through the Bible. The Bible is a revelation.

Trinitarians, Did Jesus reveal himself as God?
by ClassAvenger ini'm a person that believes in the trinity, but i have a question.
i know jesus didn't reveal to all the people to whom he preached as god himself, and it was not something that he directly taught (or at least i think he didn't), but i know from what i've read that the disciples knew and taught it.
my question is, did jesus tell them, or did they have this revealed when they were anointed by the holy spirit?

Did God Create Dinosaurs Or UFOs?
by Latin assassin from Manhattan ini remember at a district convention in yankee stadium back in the 80's where the district overseer mentioned the possibility of one day being able to share the universe "with other creations of jehovah" as he put it.
it definitely got everyone's attention because he even went so far as to say that perhaps ufos are a creation of jehovah, but we haven't been told of their purpose.
when i heard that i nearly choked on my jw-hoagie.

In my opinion, I dont think we are the only creation of Jehovah. Why would he need to tell us about other creations? He probably just told us what we needed to know. Like Mr. Kim said, God does whatever he wants. - CA

I don't think it was just the fact of Jesus dying, but also of him being humiliated. If you were God, would you humiliate yourself, the Almighty God to save humanity. He didn't need to do it, in fact, I dont think he needs us to worship Him. But he did it for love for us. - CA

Hahaha, I think the pioneer with the most hours and the most books sold gets to test a rocket to outer space. Imagine a rocket built by the Watchtower. The engineers would be sort of engineers but not really, and certainly they would not be rocket engineers. LOL. By the way, I saw one in some show in Fox where they said that we never got to the moon. They gave pretty good reasons, anyone seen it here?

I don't think God needs us, we need him. His greatest act of love that humanity knows of is giving his Son to die for us. - CA

I don't know how it feels when all your friends and your family turns your back on you, but I can imagine it and it would be very depressing. From what I've read in this forum, it's pretty hard to trust in any other religion after leaving the organization, but try searching for what you feel is the truth and ask God for direction. This way, you can enter another religion and start making friends, friends who will support you in every possible way they can. God, time, and these people will help you get over your depression. God bless you. - CA
