'Exercise patience': Jehovah's Witnesses convention returns for 2023 | Good Day on WTOL 11

[@bmoshareholderappleshareho855]

JWs are very patient people. They have been saying in the 60s, the 70s, the 80s, the 90s, and beyond the year 2000 that the end is very near. Boy, that is patience.

Beware of mocking apostates that will leave negative comments on this channel, and also publish literature that resorts to distortions, half-truths, and outright falsehood. They even picket Witness conventions, trying to trap the unwary., it would be a dangerous thing to allow our curiosity to move us to feed on such writings or to listen to their abusive speech! While we might not think it a risk for us personally, the hazard remains. Why? For one thing, some of the apostate literature presents falsehoods by means of “smooth talk” and “counterfeit words.” (Romans 16:17, 18; 2 Peter 2:3) What would you expect from the table of demons? And while the apostates may also present certain facts, these are usually taken out of context with the goal of drawing others away from the table of Jehovah. All their writings simply criticize and tear down! Nothing is up building. “Avoid them,” says God’s Word. Other translations render that phrase “turn away from them,” “keep away from them,” and “stay away from them!” There is nothing ambiguous about that inspired counsel. Suppose that a doctor told you to avoid contact with someone who is infected with a contagious, deadly disease. You would know what the doctor means, and you would strictly heed his warning. Well, apostates are “mentally diseased,” and they seek to infect others with their disloyal teachings. (1 Tim. 6:3, 4) Jehovah, the Great Physician, tells us to avoid contact with them. We know what he means, but are we determined to heed his warning in all respects? Apostates “quietly bring in” corruptive ideas. Like smugglers, they operate in a clandestine manner, subtly introducing apostate views. And just as a clever forger tries to pass phony documents, so apostates use “counterfeit words,” or false arguments, trying to pass their fabricated views as if they were true. They spread “deceptive teachings,” “twisting . . . the Scriptures” to fit their own ideas. Jesus Christ had foretold, the apostasy did not take in the entire body of Christians; the true, loyal ones were to be as “wheat” associated with “weeds.” After Christ’s second presence begins, invisible, in spirit, and during “the conclusion of the system of things” (then existing) a clear separation and demarcation was to be made evident. The “weeds,” “the sons of the wicked one,” were to be ‘collected out of the kingdom of the Son of man.’ This cleaning out of the true Christian congregation would leave a field of clean wheat; the false imitation Christians would be outside the true Christian congregation. Whereas the ‘weed-like’ ones would finally be pitched into the “fiery furnace,” the ‘wheat-like’ ones would “shine as brightly as the sun in the kingdom of their Father.” (Matt. 13:24-30, 37-43) This definitely pointed to the concluding portion of the system of things under Satan’s wicked rule preceding its destruction. The prophetic illustration of Jesus also showed that time had to pass before the ‘weed-like’ ones would become fully manifest, finally to be destroyed. Since the apostles knew this, their use of “last days,” “last hour” and like expressions in connection with the apostasy did not mean that they expected Jesus’ second presence and the subsequent destruction of the ungodly right away. Let no man seduce you in any manner, because it will not come unless the apostasy comes first and the man of lawlessness gets revealed, the son of destruction.”-2 Thess. 2:1-3.

[@ramrod576]

For those tuning in. Jehovah isn't God's name. Its a miss translation that combine the tetragrammaton just the consonants from God's name. Either the vowels from a different word. It wrong. Always have been, alway will be. The letter J didn't exist till 1500's. No bible writer every uses that name. The name was deliberately obscured by the Jews at the time who were superstitious about it. Something about not taking the Lord's name in vain. The governing body will admit with a half truth that Jehovah may not be the closest pronunciation... Which is, in reality only part of the problem. The more you know.

[@ramrod576]

​@@thisth3kidlilc33zI will. The Jehovah's witnesses have incorrectly predicted Armageddon half a dozen times. Jesus mentioned a generation that would not pass away until the kingdom came. This generation was supposed to witness things Jesus spoke about. It was for application at the time of Jesus, which Jehovah's witnesses have erroneously extrapolated a secondary fulfilment. You can maybe start to see why they go it wrong... The generation that was not supposed to pass away was the generation that saw the events of 1914 unfold. The supposed invisible (not in Bible) return of Jesus. Now the Jehovah's witnesses say a generation that overlaps with them but saw absolutely none of the significant events. Will be the generation that doesn't pass away. Again a teaching not found in the Bible.

What about the long-term financial cost to young people who are discouraged from higher education, meaning they're trapped in low-paid, menial jobs? What about the psychological damage to children who are prohibited from birthday celebrations and other social activities? No initial "cost" in monetary terms but that's always the way with cults.

And while the apostates may also present certain facts, these are usually taken out of context with the goal of drawing others away from the table of Jehovah. All their writings simply criticize and tear down! Nothing is up building. “Avoid them,” says God’s Word. Other translations render that phrase “turn away from them,” “keep away from them,” and “stay away from them!” There is nothing ambiguous about that inspired counsel. Suppose that a doctor told you to avoid contact with someone who is infected with a contagious, deadly disease. You would know what the doctor means, and you would strictly heed his warning. Well, apostates are “mentally diseased,” and they seek to infect others with their disloyal teachings. (1 Tim. 6:3, 4) Jehovah, the Great Physician, tells us to avoid contact with them. We know what he means, but are we determined to heed his warning in all respects? Apostates “quietly bring in” corruptive ideas. Like smugglers, they operate in a clandestine manner, subtly introducing apostate views. And just as a clever forger tries to pass phony documents, so apostates use “counterfeit words,” or false arguments, trying to pass their fabricated views as if they were true. They spread “deceptive teachings,” “twisting . . . the Scriptures” to fit their own ideas. Jesus Christ had foretold, the apostasy did not take in the entire body of Christians; the true, loyal ones were to be as “wheat” associated with “weeds.” After Christ’s second presence begins, invisible, in spirit, and during “the conclusion of the system of things” (then existing) a clear separation and demarcation was to be made evident. The “weeds,” “the sons of the wicked one,” were to be ‘collected out of the kingdom of the Son of man.’ This cleaning out of the true Christian congregation would leave a field of clean wheat; the false imitation Christians would be outside the true Christian congregation. Whereas the ‘weed-like’ ones would finally be pitched into the “fiery furnace,” the ‘wheat-like’ ones would “shine as brightly as the sun in the kingdom of their Father.” (Matt. 13:24-30, 37-43) This definitely pointed to the concluding portion of the system of things under Satan’s wicked rule preceding its destruction. The prophetic illustration of Jesus also showed that time had to pass before the ‘weed-like’ ones would become fully manifest, finally to be destroyed. Since the apostles knew this, their use of “last days,” “last hour” and like expressions in connection with the apostasy did not mean that they expected Jesus’ second presence and the subsequent destruction of the ungodly right away. Let no man seduce you in any manner, because it will not come unless the apostasy comes first and the man of lawlessness gets revealed, the son of destruction.”-2 Thess. 2:1-3.

Odd. I don't feel like a false prophet. I've never prophesied anything. I've just observed a high control religion that routinely ruins people's lives by not allowing anyone the freedom of thought to disagree with a few old men in New York under threat of being cut off from their family, friends and often employment, especially young people who are still dependent on their parents. You are not allowed to have your own beliefs when you are a JW.

Anyone who denies the deity of Jesus Christ is a false prophet. The only way to the truth is through our salvation in Jesus Christ, who saved us. 🙏.
