  DO YOU EVER THINK ABOUT the things people believe about JESUS?

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  do you ever "think about" the things you just take for granted about the story of jesus?.

  there are things about christianity which should make honest thinkers scratch their head in wonder.. **.

  when beloved (or hated) public figures are murdered (or executed), some rather large waves of reaction ensue.. there are two kinds of outcry both speculative and descriptive.

  The more you make a honest investigation about the gospels authenticity, the more you lose trust in the Bible.

  Just imagine yourself living in the times of the Supposed Jesus Christ. There would have been several self proclaimed Messiahs in that superstition infested middle east, just making up fraudulent claims that they are divine/ son of god. Nothing more. And one of those mythical character just evolved into today's Christianity.

  For any that still believe in God and Jesus, what is your reasoning on this matter?

  by BourneIdentity in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  in the old testament, god was always full of anger and jealousy resulting in the murder of millions of people.

  we’re told jesus perfectly reflects his fathers qualities.

  why in the new testament does jesus show no hint of anger and jealousy and wanting to kill people?

  Very true. The God of the old testament boils with anger and jealousy, even for petty reasons. This is absolute imperfection.

  However the Bible says that god is the Epitome of perfection. How can we reconcile this ? Cannot...and hence the Bible falls apart

  Jesus cast out 7 demons out of Mary Magdalene. Wow. How come 7 demons can get into a single person. Madam Magdalene should have been a terrific hostess.

  And Jesus said his followers would do more than what he did
  

  So true christians should cast out more demons out of more people. - More than 7 demons out of a single person.

  And mighty Jesus extracted 2 demons from 2 people and implanted (?) them into Pigs, which all ran up a cliff and committed mass suicide. Nothing more fascinating than the Bible - I tell you'll

  Beards

  by HiddenPimo in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so i started growing a beard 2 weeks ago and i am making some nice progress.

  it has been noticed by many in my workplace and they give me great compliments.

  my skin would get all bumpy from the constant shaving and i am so glad to be done with that form of cult control.. last year (i was pimo then) i worked in the video department at the regional convention.

  When I was undergoing Bible study in India, I went to the convention for the first time with a one day beard. At the convention my BS conductor asked me why I wasn’t clean shaven. Hell... I should have recognized this is a tight control cult. But no knowledge about cults then

  When I arrived in USA, I went to the FS without wearing a tie. Immediately the FS conductor gave his spare tie to me and told to wear it.

  Actually in India, nobody wears a tie out in FS and most JW men wont even tuck in their shirts for the meetings, FS and assemblies. It’s a culture thing and also due to poor economic conditions.

  Satan Hurled Out in 1914 - Will They Say It Was Never Taught?

  by Anna Marina in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  wbts rewrites/carefully edits their own history.

  since 2005, i have been through a lot with with wbts.

  recently i came across a suggestions that they will start denying that they ever said satan was hurled out of heaven in 1914.. in my experience, it is one doctrine many ordinary members are clear about - you ask them what supposedly took place in 1914 and they'll say, "satan was hurled out of heaven, therefore world war i started.".

  Seems Satan was cast out of heaven who started WW1

  And then his comrades were cast out of heaven, in an order that started WW2, Vietnam war, gulf war and so on....

  As if there hadnt been war at all before the first cast out.

  And what a loving god - who casts out the devils to earth - instead of confining them in the billions of un inhabited stars and planets out there, or destroying them totally.

  my pimi wife listens to a lot of the meetings on the phone with the speaker on.

  when i am watching tv i hear the meetings in the background.

  i just cringe with how a witless can't give a comment without having said jehovah at least two times.

  How can you have a personal relationship with someone you can't see and doesn't talk to you?

  That is why some neuro experts call religion as a severe neurological Disorder.

  Governing Body - Time in Ministry

  by Peeringin in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  is there any transparency in how many hours on the ministry the governing body members do on the ministry?

  by this i mean the physical act of going door to door in their area.

  i guess it is plausible that they would count overseas trips and working on publications as part of their ministry, but this is not what they encourage from the jw on the street.. is it possible for a gb member to be reproved or otherwise for not going out in service?

  Most of the GB know its a scam they are running and FS is utter non-sense. So they would have their own excuses not to go door to door. Like pretending to be terribly busy…

  Everyone in a Cult, Doesn't Know They Are in a Cult

  by The Bethelite in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  that's the one thing they all have in common.

  because as soon as you are aware that you are in one, you would of course leave it,.

  so millions of people all over the world are in them and but of course are ignorant of this fact.. i was asked many times over the years in field service, the question.

  No cult member would believe they are in a cult. They don’t know the real attributes of a cult, else why would they be entrapped in a cult.

  All cults have a basic common thread. Us verse them. Meaning, we are special and god protected. The world is evil. If you leave, you would be destroyed.
