  Changed Jesus Painting

  by neat blue dog in

  the theme of feeding many through the hands of a few was discussed at a recent clam, and it was based on a wt article from 5 years ago.

  for some reason though they changed the picture that goes with it.

  usually people are erased from pictures when they defect, but this doesn't look too different, just like they made him have more delicate features.. .

  Why give him a modern haircut in both pics?

  Perhaps Great Clips and Super Cuts Existed then in the middle East. You know, the GB knows this through Holy Spirit.

  Parttakers

  i was reading another thread about the new gb member and it got me wondering if anyone knows someone who partook of the emblems at the memorial even though they knew they weren't 'anointed' just to see what reaction they got?

  did they get questioned by elders?

  did people start treating them differently?

  There was a mid aged sister in my congregation, who was partaking and nobody believed her to be truly anointed.

  She would skip a lot of meetings and was briefly separated from her husband at that time. In-fact an elder even advised me and my wife to stay away from her, when I was new in that congregation.

  i've been pondering on this question for awhile now, and i'm starting to think this malevolent spirit creature isn't real.

  " It is the True Religion ! "

  by Phizzy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  speaking to two jw's, separately and days apart, they both weaved in to the conversation the phrase " it is the true religion " .. now in neither case was it possible for me to do my usual thing, piling in with both guns blazing and pointing out that it is impossible for there to be any such thing as "the true religion", unless by "truth" you mean that which is true in your opinion and not supported by facts or reality etc etc.

  my question is : is this mere coincidence, or has there been an article or something telling them to say this ?

  if there is, could someone point me to it ?

  All Serial killers are Evil. There cannot be a Kind Serial Killer.
  

  All religions are frauds. So there cannot be anything such as "True Religion". Of course, it can be said that that they Truly deceive People.

  they would go where the spirit inclined them to go.​—ezek.

  jesus has appointed the ‘faithful slave’ to be the only channel for dispensing spiritual food.

  So the spirit inclined the Governing body to become a member of the Disgusting wild beast (UNO).

  Many things for me were "Too Good to be true" to beleive in the WT world. For Example,

  • JWs are the only ones who would survive Armageddon, and even the good worldly people would be destroyed.
  • Have seen so many good hearted Non JWS who never accept WT teaching, how hard I try.
  • There wasn't any God's Organization or truth prior to CT Russel
  • Almighty Jah remained silent for 1875 years, when his Holy name was removed from his Holy book and WT had to restore it in the early 20th Century.
  • Finally the 607 research was the "Opening of the can of Worms" for me

  Does praying really matter? Where is the evidence?

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  matthew 7:7 jesus says: ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.

  for every one who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.

  or what man of you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone?

  Please Switch Off Your Critical Thinking

  i have an uneasy feeling inside that something is coming this year or the next.

  perhaps a new big announcement that turns jwdom on it's head.. we've seen the statement in the watchtower november 15th, 2013 which said:.

  watchtower november 15th, 2013 - page 20, paragraph 17.. .

  Deuteronomy 13: 6 “If your brother, the son of your mother, your son or your daughter, the wife of your bosom, or your friend who is as your own soul, secretly entices you, saying, ‘Let us go and serve other gods,’ which you have not known, neither you nor your fathers, 7 of the gods of the people which are all around you, near to you or far off from you, from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth, 8 you shall not consent to him or listen to him, nor shall your eye pity him, nor shall you spare him or conceal him; 9 but you shall surely kill him; your hand shall be first against him to put him to death, and afterward the hand of all the people. 10 And you shall stone him with stones until he dies, because he sought to entice you away from the Lord your God....

  WT can turn our own families against us by quoting the above barbaric Garbage.

  Try this on a JW

  by Saltheart Foamfollower in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this is not intended to expose wrong teachings etc, just to promote thinking and asking questions.. 1) ask if imperfection and death automatically follow sin.

  jw will answer yes.. 2) ask if satan is imperfect then.. 3) sit back and watch them try to work out what the right answer should be.. sf.

  Excellent. And this All Knowing Jah wipes out tribes after tribes but leaves the Great Sinner Satan aloof till now.

  Praying in the name of Michael the archangel instead of Jesus

  by krismalone in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  just wondering what would happen if a brother saying a prayer in a meeting did it in the name of michael the archangel instead of closing the prayer with "jesus christ".

  since jw's believe michael is jesus would he be counseled?

  what if a brother used the name michael the archangel in their public talks instead of jesus?
