jehovahs witness

Posted on 12/21/2009 12:08:37 PM PST by annieup

FIRST OF ALL THE WITNESSES ARE NOT A CULT. THAT OPINION WAS FORMED BY SOMEONE THAT OBVIOUSLY FEELS THREATNED BY THE TRUTH.IT AMAZES ME THAT WHENEVER A WITNESS DOES SOMETHING WRONG IT MAKES THE FRONT PAGE OF THE NEWS! IF A BABTIST OR PROTESTANT DOES SOMETHING WRONG IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THEIR RELIGION. AND THIS BIG COVER UP GARBAGE IS A JOKE. ADMITTEDLY THEY ARE NOT PERFECT NOR CLAIM TO BE. MATT 24:9 SAYS THAT WE WOULD BE OBJECTS OF HATRED ON ACCOUNT OF HIS NAME. WHAT OTHER RELIGION IS HATED ON ACCOUNT OF HIS NAME? ONLY 1 THAT I CAN THINK OF THE WITNESSES PROUDLY GLORIFY JEHOVAHS NAME. ALSO WE ARE NOT PROGRAMMED. WE HAVE FREE WILL,GOD DOES NOT WANT ROBOTS, THAT IS WHY HE GAVE ADAM AND EVE FREE WILL. AND WE DO BELIEVE IN JESUS. HE IS GODS SON AND HE DID GIVE HIS LIFE FOR OUR SINS. I ALSO GET A KICK OUT OF THOSE WHO TELL US WHAT WE BELIEVE, ESPECIALLY IF IT ISN'T TRUE. PEOPLE JUST MAKE UP WHAT THEY WANT ABOUT THE WITNESSES AND THE NAIVE ONES BELIEVE IT. IF IT IS TRUE THEN LOOK INTO WHY WE BELIEVE WHAT WE DO. DONT JUST ASSUME TO KNOW EVERYTHING THAT THEY TEACH OR BELLIEVE BASED ON SOMEONE ELSE'S OPINION. TALK ABOUT HAVING A MIND OF YOUR OWN!!

My mother always exchanged lit with them. One time (first time in a couple years) a group stopped by. after about 2 minutes, one gal said ‘I think I have been here before’...I about wet myself laughing so hard...

I have JH in my extended family. I should probably know more about them, same with other christian ‘variations’ (being nice here). Differences seem to come down to ‘Jesus is God’. Not ‘became like God’, but ‘is God’. That seems to be a major sticking point to every other ‘variation’...

When ever I read all the crap that the Mormons and the JWs put out I think, man, why don't they just go with the Bible. Instead they pick and choose from OUR Bible (the living word of God) and add add add to it a bunch of unbelievable junk. The astounding thing to me is that so many people are stupid enough to believe it.

Is this a vanity post? Is it religious? Did something upset you?

Your post may well signal the End of Days of the internet.

Certainly, there can be few scrapings of the Void remaining to be expressed.

But, hey, Merry Christmas!

What is it about dogs and JW’s? I had one sitting on my couch as I gently showed her the error in her beliefs when Andra came and dropped a dirty pair of Hubby’s underwear at the womans feet. JW fled and the dog never did such a thing again.

Like the truth that the founder of your movement, Charles Taze Russell, lied to his followers (and later, under oath)about being able to read Greek?

Like the truth that your organization predicted the return of Christ in (IIRC) 1975, and then pretended they had been "misinterpreted" when He didn't show up?

You mean those truths?

You need to include <b><font size=+3> at the beginning of your text and </font></b> at the end to get people to pay real attention to you. For example:

FIRST OF ALL THE WITNESSES ARE NOT A CULT.

There, even more ranty than you posted originally.

I hate to break it to you, but we Baptists ARE Protestants.

There are so many variations of denominations. It can be hard to know. Bottom Line - Jesus is the Son of God, born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, was crucified and died, taking on our sins, He rose 3 days later and sits at the right hand of God. He is part of the Trinity-Father, Son, Holy Spirit.

Beyond that, it is ‘fluff’. Differing rites, routines, etc. But when one denies Jesus’ divinity, and rants on it, well, expect to hear ‘Incoming!’. Just sayin’

“....... the fact that JW’s suffer so much persecution and hatred.....”

LOL.... I don’t know hardly anything about their religion and I don’t want to. I found it near impossible to get these folks to quit coming to my front door and awakening me from much needed sleep. I was a day sleeper at the time and I told these idiots that.

Being polite to these folks only encourages them to return and return and return. Finally, I quit being polite and told them not to return, ever, or they would be arrested for trespass.

They came back again! This time I deliberately let my Doberman out the back door, knowing full well that he would run around to the front, sit, stare and show his teeth. I told these now frightened morons that I could not be certain that the next time they came, uninvited, to my doorstep, that he wouldn’t beat me there and do what he knew to do best, protect. I never saw these dweebs again... thank God, and Caesar.
