  1. Some commentators lead us to conclude, after showing some historical incidents or accidents in WTJWorg; -That every good thing that happens to JWs is due to God's blessing and guidance. -On the other hand, that every bad thing that happens to JWs is a consequence of GB intellect and their overpowering the influence of HS. Logical right? :))
  2. Paradox. The Israelites of old liked to occasionally seek help from Baal even though they primarily worshiped YHVH. How can and should information from UN statistics become important for the theology and strengthening of the faith of followers and those who will become followers? Yes, maybe there is nothing secret about being an NGO, but why was it hidden from the membership? Or to turn the question around; Why wasn't it proudly announced that WTJWorg was a member of the Library and that the supremacy of YHVH over Baal was thereby demonstrated?
  3. Does this mean that this post from another channel is not a forgery or an exaggeration or a fraud? That the picture and the letter are authentic? I remember that even in my time (70s) there were controversies and questions about entering the churches of "Babylon the Great". From the fact that "real Christians" have nothing to look for there, and especially not to listen to their sermons, to the fact that it is just a visit to artistic and historical monuments and that it has no significance. Although, on the other hand, JWs run away from everything that has "pagan origins". It means somewhat contradictory and uneven thinking.
  4. Heretics, schismatics, apostates and other types can be found everywhere. Of course, this does not mean that they are wrong and the "faithful" members are right.
  5. What is holding you back from publishing the desired information? Is someone forbidding you? No commentators has anything against you posting news about Catholics, Mormons, Adventists, etc.
  6. Who should care what happens in the rest of "Babylon the Great"? Clean things up in your house, then take care of your neighbors. Just suggestion By the way, RNZ focus is not on WTJWorg only, as you can inform yourself on their web.

  9. The reasoning presented here nicely shows that GB's claim that they are led by HS has nothing to do with reality, but is a fantasy of GB and JW members. Thanks.
  10. Of course, Jesus did not tell us that his faithful slave would produce perfect spiritual food. (The Watchtower February 2017 study edition pg. 26 par. 12) This could mean; - that Jesus does not send perfect spiritual food from his heavenly throne - that GB improvises his interpretations and instructions relying on his own intelligence What does this mean for JW members? It means that they are led by blind leaders. This in turn means that Jesus' conclusion about blind religious leaders leading their sheep is being fulfilled. In this way, we arrive at the result that the JW sheep may not be the sheep of Jesus but are under the rule of the GB. So they are not in Jesus' fold but Watchtower's.
  11. I notice a possible problem. You are stating that Jesus had no knowledge of future events, while Jesus is making a claim about the generation in which he says what will happen to it. Furthermore, Jesus nowhere claims that the future is not unknown to him, he only stated that he knows nothing about "the day and the hour". But from the further text you wrote about scholars and theologians and "generation", they seem to know more than Jesus, so they are ready to harass their members with spiritual interpretations.
  12. Different religions or religious groups, large and small, have different views and opinions on theological issues. What is a religion but a system run by leading individuals or united groups, like GB. This actually means that it is about one's own individual or group perspectives and interpretations. Everyone, with more or less success, can refer to the Bible, the Koran, Mao Tse Tung or President Tito. So, what are the crucial things when it comes to current, future and former members of a religion? These are all performances and litanies religiously and intellectually colored with attempts to exalt one's spirituality. Some of them shout about victory and success at the same time, but always and only remain individuals who are ultimately lost and often in suffering. Man ends his life in his own or other people's illusions. What do you and/or the Watchtower actually have to offer, when all this has long been invented?
  13. Out of context. Excessive description. The majority is silent and suffers, that's why the bad ones succeed. Some say that there is a saying, You learn from mistakes. Then why is it a problem to indicate "errors"? "Errors" brought us to where we are now. Who hates you here? Criticism of your theology is a platform to feel hated? Your choice in this contradicts what you are taught in KH. Some in WTJWorg would call your activity "disobedience to God's authority as manifested through GB and elders". But as far as I'm concerned it's better to know more about your religion than less.
  14. The way you describe and defend the Watchtower opens the door to the conclusion that you are not a member of the JW Church, but an advocate or apologist of a JW aka Watchtower religion.
  15. Please note that the Closed JW Club is half the size of the Open one. Let's ask ourselves why this is so? And how many members from the Closed Club are ready to violate the GB 1st Amendment, which is; don't talk to ex-JWs and don't engage in dialogue with them and don't watch the contents they gave? This thread has 4.1k views. Apart from the few of us who are in the polemic, Who are the other people who viewed the content? Your last question is super funny.
  16. JW member's way of thinking: All religions of the world, except the JW religion, are ungodly and under Satan rule. All world governments are evil under the influence of Satan. So, every evil and injustice (CSA also) that happens to them there is because their minds are in the dark under satanic influence. If something like this is happening in the only JW true religion then it is because the JW members are imperfect people. In the JW true religion, the evil that sometimes happens, happens because some JW member has become spiritually weak, and that's it. Satan has no influence over JW Christians because they are in a spiritual paradise that is protected. We are protected spiritually but not physically. Physical protection of JW members is the responsibility of the police and secular authorities (Richard Ashe deposition).
  17. Decision Charity Inquiry: Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Britain 4 August 2023 https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/charity-inquiry-watch-tower-bible-and-tract-society-of-britain/charity-inquiry-watch-tower-bible-and-tract-society-of-britain#contents .., Though not disclosed to the inquiry this information was disclosed to IICSA by CCJW (not the charity), as part of its thematic strand on child abuse in religious settings. The report states that JW records show that allegations concerning 67 individuals were reported to their Branch Office within the previous 10 years. This included 25 allegations against Elders, 32 allegations against ministerial servants and 10 people accused of abuse within an institutional context (such as abuse at a place of worship by a congregant or non-Jehovah’s Witness) ..,
  18. Many can assert themselves in various forms and claim whatever they want about themselves. Among other things, they can claim that Jesus chose them in 1919 to be his "chosen ones". At the same time, they can lead a multinational company "following the example of Jesus" in same manner? And asking followers to sign a "vow of poverty"? Should that be proof to someone that they are "chosen" and that they have "received the spirit"? For many it is doctrinal nonsense.
  19. We discussing WTJWorg, not me. Collecting and destroying is part of one and same process. Please read WT publications again. GB is in focus not Jesus.
