Jw carts

by Jrjw in

i was just thinking it would be funny if apostates set up jwfacts carts and placed them in areas where the jws do their metropolitan witnessing to unwitness to people the witnesses have spoken to.

it would probably get the jws backs up like or it would stop the cart witnessing altogether.

EverApostate

This Anti-Cart anti-witnessing would only strengthen their "Armageddon is right around the corner" faith.

Apparently Jehovah`s Witnesses have no scruples about " LYING" to their GOD Jehovah

by smiddy3 in

i thought it was bad enough that jw`s put in weekly reports of fs hours every month in the d2d work when in fact the average publisher would never mention this "good news of the kingdom" to the householder .. more often than not it would be something like some mundane thing about what they have observed about the householders property whether they have kids ,what a lovely garden they have before being cut off by the householder with i`m not interested knowing jw`s are trying to convert them/sell them the watchtower and closing the door.. yet the jw goes away happily putting in a report telling jehovah they have spent so much time in the fs witnessing about him and the kingdom of christ jesus...... cart witnessing is even a worse lie ,why ?

because jw`s make no attempt to witness to anybody they expect people to come to them to be witnessed to which of course never happens .

they spend hours upon hours a month telling jehovah by their fs reports they hand in how much they have witnessed for him ,when in fact they have done nothing of the sort .. they chit chat among themselves witnessing to nobody for hours on end and then lie in their fs report they have been witnessing for jehovah ?.

EverApostate

When I was in, I was advised by Fellow Jws to start the time by providing a pamphlet to any on goers, before getting into my car at home for FS.

In that way, my FS starts from then onward and would continue into the meeting for FS and then into the Territory D2D or return visits.

So I added my 15 mins of drive to the KH as FS time. If I look back now, cant stop laughing.

Did Jesus or the Apostles set up a stall and wait for people to come to them ? And keep silent until they were approached ?

Very valid point .

May be Holy Jehovah changed his Holy Strategy to do Holy cart witnessing and this was communicated to the Holy Governing body through Holy Spirit.

References to YHWH in ancient documents

by Doug Mason in

page 15 of awake!

2017 provides an image that shows hebrew writing with the statement: “the personal name of god written in ancient hebrew characters appears abundantly in early manuscripts of the bible”.. alongside that image, the awake!

provides a listing to show “the rendering of ‘god’s name’ in various languages”.. the facts do not support either assertion that the watchtower society makes:.

EverApostate

Just as eyeuse2badub said, when the supposed Almighty god cannot preserve his name in his Holy book, why spend time debating about this at all.

Jesus fulfilling old testament prophecies like his legs not being broken

by Isambard Crater in

what are everyone's thoughts on this, how his legs weren't broken, he was pierced with a spear and he wore a thorny crown?.

i'm pimo and very much not wanting to believe, but like the daniel statue prophecies, these ones about jesus stick in my mind and give me "hmmm, maybe" moments..

EverApostate

The Gospels were written several decades after this supposed Messiah Died, by anonymous writers . Why ?

Jesus, who came to fulfill the most important mission in human History, never wrote a word about himself. why ?

Jesus who performed so many miracles, were never known to the outside continents, until the Bible was put in print and that was several centuries later.

Why did all such things happen in a period when there were literally no scientific inventions at all, in a period of self proclaimed prophets, fradulant miracle workers, ignorance and superstition.

If only Jesus could come and perform his miracles now and sacrifice himself, there would be a live feed in all the media and the outcome would be much better

If only the Bible predicted that man would land on the moon, in the 20th century, instead of a Broken bone prediction, I would still believe in the Bible.

Mormons baptize Holocaust victims and D. Trump grandparents..

by James Mixon in

yes the associated press..mormons are posthumously baptizing holocaust victim as well as grandparents of public figures like d. trump, hillary clinton and steve spielberg..i wonder what holocaust victims will think, surprise you are a mormon...i think i will send a request to mormon's headquarter to check to see if c.t russell and any of the past dead gb members were baptized, and make it known to jw community.. it would hilarious to see their (jw) expression, "you know russell was a baptized mormon.....

Every cult has its own weirdo nutty beliefs and practices.

Actually there is a verse in the Bible said to have spoke by Nutty Paul, that they quote for this

Are You An Angry Exjw At This Point In Your Life?

by minimus in

jw
friends

i’ve been here for many years.

the tone seems to be different in this place.

not so many pissed off exjws .

EverApostate

I was angry when my JW associates shunned me. Took a few months to forgive them. Still a little angry, that this WT fooled me for a decade.

Nowadays, I have trained myself to engage in thought provoking conversation with any Jws I come across.

May be some day they would think on the points I have mentioned. That is the reason I write on this Forum also

Guilt trip

by Jrjw in

did anyone have other jws try to guilt trip them when they were leaving or if you were making a decision which jws felt was wrong but wasn't unscriptural?

i'm getting people guilt tripping me to eventually get back with my emotionally, spiritually and mentally abusive husband who i'm separated from.

i feel sick at the thought of getting back together and putting myself through that nightmare again but i'm being told its what jehovah wants coz he doesn't want families to be apart.

EverApostate

When I first started to ask question about what I knew about the WT, my so called JW friends guilt tripped me that I am betraying Jehovah for having chosen me and given me a good life and so on......

When I started to cut down on FS, my wife would guilt trip me that I am not doing enough for Jehovah.

Guilt trip is a very effective way of Control , by cults

what big change could bring down the watchtower?

by stan livedeath in

what single big change do you think could back fire and bring the cult down ?.

me: tithing..

EverApostate

When a religion can convince people that there is a God in the heavens, with myriads of angels, with heaven, Satan, afterlife, savior, redemption, resurrection, everlasting Life – all without providing a gist of evidence, why can’t they convince them with a regular tithing.

When parents are ready to let their children die due to some ignorant ancient manipulated scribbling, why wont they get convinced for any other changes from their religion

However BIG the change, there would still be devotees. A few may think and Exit.

Religion has the power to manipulate and "Make Believe" anything.
