  Let's compare the sayings of Jesus and the modern day Governing Body

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  imagine yourself still sitting at a kingdom hall meeting and turn to the book of mark 7: 21-23. the sayings of jesus are really profound.

  the scripture makes you think, reflect, enters your heart and produces results.. today, you have your modern day governing body ( who supposedly are the mouthpiece for jesus and jehovah and provide spiritual food for the 8 million followers).

  if jehovah really sends his holy spirit upon these seven men, is this silly and petty message they can come up with?

  Yes, the GB goes beyond what is written and even then I don’t have any respect for the supposed Jesus for the Following reasons.

  He advised his followers to love him more than they love their family and come after him. What else more for a Cult leader ?

  He never condemned slavery and even told a parable on the beating of slaves

  Facing my own mortality!

  by eyeuse2badub in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i’m 71 years old now.

  seven decades plus.

  but, i put that in perspective owing to the fact that my older brother died in 1992 at the age of only 51. it was a very sobering time for me even though i was only 45 at the time.

  Any living thing gets old and dies. This is how nature works and had worked for Billions of Years.

  Religions try to create faulty and Anti-Natural hopes like after life, reincarnation, resurrection and all other non-senses.

  We had all realized the truth now and should accept what nature has to offer. Cant worry about things we cant change. This is how I am coping, after having realized Mortality.

  Please explain!

  by Freedom rocks in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  hi please can someone explain this in laymans terms for me coz i be ever got it as a jw and still don't.

  it doesn't make sense to me.

  bible chronology indicates that god’s kingdom was established in heaven in 1914. this is shown by a prophecy recorded in chapter 4 of the bible book of daniel.. overview of the prophecy.

  Everyone gets silly and Crazy dreams and bible has a handful of it.

  People interpret Biblical dreams with their own wishful thinking, which doesn't do any good for Humanity. Hence Not worthy of any consideration.

  This is how I consider Bible now. Sorry.

  Did You Ever Find The Theolgy of JWs Reasonable?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when i was a young man growing up in the religion, i would try to defend whatever the understanding of a doctrine was.

  i won a lot of arguments based on the idea that i knew better than anyone i was talking to and defended myself admirably.

  (lol)....eventually, i realized i was in a cult but for many years i was a believer and i had faith that the gb knew more that i could understand..

  The JW Bible study conductor teach that Satan played the part of a ventriloquist and used the snake to trick Eve to eat the fruit.

  Once a person accepts that Bizarre/foolish/Silly explanation , he/she can be fooled all the way until baptism.

  Reflecting On The JW Version Of You

  by pale.emperor in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  lately i've been thinking over how far i've come over the last 2.5 years since leaving the cult.

  when i first left i remember not knowing who i really was and what my beliefs and values were.

  previously my values and beliefs were dictated to me the the governing body in watchtower magazines.. i'm politically active, being a member of a political party and i'm even considering running in my local election in a few years.. when it comes to religion, im an atheist who has little time for superstition and "god did it" answers to complex questions.

  My JW version: Most of the time self righteous, arguing with People that WT is correct. Many times battered by Conscience and cognitive dissonance, due to conflicting beliefs. Very often felt that WT teachings are too good to be true. Doubted the WT very often yet obeyed them. Very often Hated meetings and dreaded FS.

  Current Version: Free in mind and spirit. Learned to live every moment of this only life. All religions seem to be humorous now. Feel pity on religiously devout people, who are wasting their lives. Contribute a lot of time to read the books I want, watch any movies, participate in any ceremonies with an open mind, debate religious people when I get a chance, biking and the list goes on.....

  They are all dead!

  by Sour Grapes in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the watchtower company and the jdubs talk so nonchalantly about the year 1914, the year they say jesus became king in the heavenly kingdom.

  they talk about the year like it was just a short time ago.

  the invisible king began ruling in the invisible kingdom.

  104 years ! And not one Sign that Jesus has done anything but sit. He has sat through all the terrible wars, genocide, crimes etc etc of the 20th and early 21st Centuries, and done ABSOLUTELY NOTHING !

  Cool Jesus

  Satan is "bullying" you through family

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  just thought i'd share this ridiculous picture from a recent watchtower.

  in recent years, the word bullying has been thrown around a lot, and often misused by instigators and subtle bullies themselves.

  in this picture we learn that your loving family who wants to continue sharing a family tradition with you, who hands you a beautifully wrapped present with a smile on their face, is in fact bullying you.

  This Good for Nothing Jehovah kills tribes and tribes of people in the old testament. But still has left Satan on the loose to prove a point.

  May I request everyone to ask this to any JW they come across

  JWs make us believe that they are the Sun shining with all its Glory, to the darkened world, whereas in reality they are one among the Faintest and dying star that is hardly visible to the naked eye

  After leaving the JW, here are my findings:

  The bible : Total Nonsense

  God : Imagination

  Evolution : Facts

  Satan : Imagination.

  Jesus : My have lived but all his supposed Miracles are fabricated.

  Religions in general : Scams

  Eventually , it turned me into an Atheist
