Vanderhoven7, Buddha supposedly ditched his wife and children and went in search of the Truth, which wasnt a good thing to do. Buddhists hate to talk about this, In my experience

Jehovah's Witnesses, is there Life after Death?

by JW Answers in

the jehovah's witnesses claim that at death you cease to exist... however, what if they have been taught wrong?

what if the bible explains that there is life immediately after death?

what if more than 8 people in scripture from old testament to new experienced, acknowledged or taught that there was life straight after death?

This Lazarus thing is one proof that the Whole Bible is fraudulent.

If the Bible is true, Shouldn’t Lazarus be around today, indisputably proving that resurrection, Eternal Life and forgiveness of sins is true.

Of course,Jah should see to it that no one can harm Lazarus, in any manner.

A very Jealous god - who wants his name vindicated - cant even do this ?

am i imagining this?at the kingdom hall we were told many times that noah warned the others about the coming flood and was ridiculed but actually there is no evidence of this in the bible!there is however evidence to the contrary.

matthew 24:37-39.

37 as it was in the days of noah, so it will be at the coming of the son of man.

Yeah, I remember this. I have heard Public talks that Noah did field Service for 60 years and warned people.

Wondered where the heck this is in the Bible.

And finally the ARK door was shut with a loud bang. In fact one public talk was delivered with the speaker thumping the table - to simualte Jah closing the ark door- to symbolically frighten the Audience.

And Similarly, this is how an elder justified about reporting FS time. Wondering if any one has read about this in any publications

Luke 9:10 Then the apostles returned and reported to Jesus all that they had done.

What a CULT

OneEyedJoe, Please add this to your list

Luke 19: 27.And these enemies of mine who were unwilling for me to rule over them, bring them here and slay them in front of me.’” 28. After Jesus had said this, He went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.…

You walk into a car Dealer. The sales person would only try to turn all your attention to their cars plusses and not the fatal sticky pedal, Engine fire and Airbag Issues they had in the past.

Religious proselytism is nothing different.

Of course the Bible promises life (immediately) after death as well as Resurrection too, after a while

In my honest Opinion, all these life after death conspiracy theories are:

To console oneself with the fear of everlasting non-Existence after death
To lure others with this magical thinking and Exploit them.

Hence, Whatever sources you refer regarding Life after death, I consider it all the same.

Just point to one (Tangible) evidence of Life after death, I will reconsider my belief.

Sorry, I wont watch that video as I pretty much know what would be there(Some Vague references from the Bible)

In the bunker

by Lost in the fog in

imagine that you are in the middle of the (jws version) great tribulation.

food and basic supplies are scarce, the secret and not-so-secret police are actively searching for you and your family.

you have to make it to bro faithful's secret bunker to hunker down with the rest of the congregation.

EverApostate

Why Hide in a bunker when Jah has myriads of angels who can protect JWs with their Enormous (Austin) powers.

Oh yeah, I remember the Gospel now. Holy Mary and (step) daddy Joe fled to Egypt with their baby Jesus, to escape from the murderous king. So much of Angelic Protection for Jah's only begotten son ?

Moral of the Story: Better be prepared with Bunker Lifestyle. I am heading to the nearest dollar store to grab tin foods

The paranormal.

by Lost in the fog in

i know that a lot of the people on here have turned their backs on the idea of a deity deciding that god does not exist.

but what about the unseen spirit world generally such as poltergeists, jinns, voodoo, etc.

if you have become agnostic, atheist, or just don't care since leaving, do you think that there are spirits out there or have you decided that is also hokum?

Getting Remarried after a spouses death & then they are resurrected after Armageddon ?

by LOLS in

hi guys .

i was wondering about the above , if a jw is allowed to remarry if a spouse has died, then what happens when they are resurrected at armageddon, do u land up with two wives/husbands ,,,,,,, makes no sense to me & can the jw's be so dumb not to think about this or have i got it wrong ?

and i will not be asking my uber jw husband , don't have the energy.. thanks.

EverApostate

They used to teach that those resurrected would be sexless, neither male or female (like the angels).

If angels are neither male nor female, why did they select only women to mate with ?

by Addison0998 in

i recently had to take a trip with my family to bethel.

it was a bit torturous for a secret apostate as you can imagine.

but mostly just so boring.
