  I remember Jesus riding on 2 donkeys. But the cover picture has only one. May be a spare one drawn at the back of the one being ridden ?

  Why dont practicing JWS cant accept the fact that the Watchtower Corporation is a commercialized false prophet ?

  by Finkelstein in

  2. beliefs

  to the majority of people who investigate the activities of the wts from its beginning history there were obvious false proclamations and doctrines propagated by the wts.. a matter of fact the wts produced a long list of literature that posted proclamations on the front cover and went into detail of things that were suppose to happen, from jesus returning changing the world in which we live and so on.. wonderful things one might say but not factual or either theologically correct .

  I have seen many staying in for several reasons, even though bombarded with so may failures.

  Fear of Life and feeling Insecure.

  Recognition.

  Cant turn back as they have invested too much of their lives. EGO plays a role here as Venus said.

  Toasted daughter: Why Jephthah almost certainly sacrificed his daughter to a complicit Jehovah

  by Diogenesister in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  jehovah's witnesses insist that jephthah did not sacrifice his daughter to jehovah.

  this is important to them because, rarther than jephthah just being a random bad person, jehovah was very much in on the deal.

  after all, he made the promise to jehovah that he would "offer up as a burnt offering" on his return the first thing to come out of his house if jehovah would give the ammonites into his hands in battle, and since they were this makes jehovah complicit.. the isrealites had been getting a good thrashing of late, and the gilead elders (oh boy) had come out to ask jephthah, the rejected son of a prostitute (wouldn't you know it) and renown soldier, if he would lead the isrealites into battle for them.. this is when jephthah makes the deal with jehobo, and it all centres on the word for "burnt offering", which is given as "olah".

  Thanks eyeuse2badub. This is one verse to meditate and throw up
  Judges chap 19 vs 29: When he reached his house, he took the slaughtering knife and took hold of his concubine and cut her up limb by limb into 12 pieces and sent one piece into each territory of Israel

  And JWs proudly say that they don't watch R rated movies and hate violence.

  I believe with all certainty that Jephthah's daughter was burnt alive or at least this is what the Bible means .

  Watchtower Corporation is a commercialized false prophet

  As a first argument, there is nothing such as a "Prophet", because nobody can predict the future other than the Weatherman maybe , who in turn relies on science.

  What a fine way to imitate Jesus.

  Man Jesus, no body insults you like the JWs.

  If we would ever show this picture to a JW, they would say its an apostate trick and neither of them are JWs

  May be they returned to Jehovah. And all the angels including the little J rejoiced with a thundering applause, which I heard last week on a rainy day

  Big J is speeding up his Chariot for sure.

  Counting time calling on inactive ones?

  by stillin in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  had a couple of witnesses stop by yesterday to say the usual "we miss you, missed you at the meeting, just checking in on you, etc.

  " i've always liked this guy so we spoke for a few minutes.

  my wife said that they could count their time since i am inactive.

  I am sure they count time for inactive ones by R&F. When I faded there were multiple brothers and sisters who tried to rekindle my spirit to serve the cult

  Also a funny and silly thing. When I was in, I was advised to start my FS time by presenting a tract to anyone in my apartment parking lot before I get into the car for FS , so that the FS counter gets running all my way driving to the KH, for around 15 minutes

  Jah has some pretty innovative and effective policies and standards.

  Most of the numbers would be children (Of JWs), emotionally unstable or insecure or totally ignorant(who are not used to research on Internet)

  Anyway, Let it grow. Religions would always grow as long as mankind is there. Happy that we all are no more wasting our life in it.

  2. beliefs

  we want people to learn ttatt.

  we have numerous resources online to draw jws in so that they will wake up.

  however, i've noted some radical methods that have been used by fellow exjws, and quite frankly, this must stop.

  Jehovahs Witnesses – Does the Sect’s name really mean for what it is ?

  by EverApostate in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the term jehovah’s witnesses sounded weird to me even when i was in that cult.

  why does god need witnesses to prove his existence?

  there is no need for anyone to create a movement called “suns witnesses” or “moons witnesses” – in order to prove its existence and glorify it, because the sun and moon are evident to every species on earth.

  To be more precise, Jehovah (Originally YHWH) is not the correct pronunciation nor the spelling. An Almighty God couldn't even present his correct name down to generations.

  And above all, this Almighty remained silent when his name was removed by his Enemies from his Holy book, until the WT could restore it.

  Oh what a cock and Bull story.
