Patiently waiting for Truth

You should not talk about yourself like that Xero. Even if your mother's basement is the best home you've got.

Resources = books and magazines which are the words of men. Uninspired men. When all that is needed in printed form or online is God's written word. Television studio to make the GB and their lies famous. Doctrine = man made interpretations and rules by the GB who are not inspired. being specific = pretending to know the day and the hour of Armageddon. Pretending the GB are the F&DS. Telling the Anointed NOT to gather together. Pretending that a person must be a baptised JW 'to be saved'. Like I've said before, it has now been proven that 'an organisaton' could have 'leaders' in many different countries and they could so easliy communicate via internet. So the True Anointed could easily be based in, lets say, ten different countries. That way they would be more aware of 'world conditions' and what would be needed to really help people to come to know God properly. What you are politely saying here is that the less well educated are now being lied to and because they do no know any different they are accepting it. There are people that 'happily accept' the lie that all dead people go to heaven too. Lies are lies even if they make people happy.

I had a weird thought and it probably means nothing but ....... Herod tried to kill Jesus : Matthew 2 v16. Then Herod, when he saw that he had been tricked by the wise men, became furious, and he sent and killed all the male children in Bethlehem and in all that region who were two years old or under, according to the time that he had ascertained from the wise men. Obviously Herod was being used by the Devil. So my thought was, Is the Devil using 'world wide' governments to kill off older people. Why ? Because the True Anointed would probably be older people right now. So to discourage people from serving God properly, maybe the Devil removing the ones that could be used by God through Christ, is trying to cut off the source of truth. If the Devil can remove the Anointed ones then who would be the JEW that people would follow ? Could the virus and the vaccine be part of the Devil's plan to remove the older Anointed ones ? Yes it's a crazy thought i know. And i also know that God through Christ, can use anyone He pleases to use.

It worked !

The only necessary tool is the Bible. Above that of course is God's guidance by Holy Spirit, through Jesus Christ. Those that will be inspired of Holy Spirit are the True Anointed. Hence the WTBS / GB / JW Org, not being inspired of God's Holy Spirit through Christ, can only produce rotten food. Is it ? Maybe they shouldn't even be guessing at dates. Oh if only they had kept their focus, but then did they even have focus ? The GB have spent more time promoting themselves as the F&DS and pretending to know when Armageddon will arrive. And they have spent time producing horrific looking magazines to frighten people. Magazines with disgusting pictures on the covers. THAT is not preaching GOOD NEWS. That is preaching doom and gloom.

More click bate but from Tom this time. It's so funny.

Xero uses the same old record, just more click bate. So boring.

Yes, just how many companies are there ? They keep adding new ones, even real estate..

That's probably because you think sh-t, write sh-t and act like sh-t. So all you get is sh-t. But being part of that sewer it's not surprising you are that way. Live an immoral life in an immoral Org and that's the results you get for yourself.

Mormons knock on a lot of doors too . They teach lies as well.

I know it's just click bate from you but I'm not busy so I'll chip in. What you have written is a lie. Especially if a person chooses to be a JW. Firstly they get baptised into an Organisation by not following scripture. Secondly they learn or have learnt the words of men from books written by men. Thirdly they do ministry by teaching the words of men, not the words of God. Fourthly they stand at a cart / trolly distributing more words of men. Lies written in magazines or leaflets to mislead people. Fifth they have to be part of pretending to know 'the day and the hour' of Armageddon. They have to frighten people to bring them into the Org. Sixth they have to keep the secrets about all the Child Sexual Abuse in the JW Org. They have to pretend that the Kingdom Hall is a safe place to be. And you pretend that people could still have a conscience ????????????????

Full time service to other GB members and to a couple of Orgs W/t & JW.

I use it to differentiate those who are Truly Anointed, from those that your GB say have 'mental illness' or those that maybe once were Anointed but have turned away from their calling ( including the GB).

I don't know which bit of your comment to laugh at most really. Watchtower / JW Orgs / GB have nothing to do with Bible education. They do book studies studying the words of the GB and their helpers, none of whom are inspired. As for going to any other place, that is in your dreams. You seem to be determined that I will be following someone else, whereas in truth i follow no human. As for pedophilia/vs homosexuality. I've never bothered researching for two reasons. 1. we are not under the Mosaic Law. 2. My Bible traineed conscience tells me that both pedophilia and homosexuality are wrong. The topic was just a relaxing question to see if others had met with the idea. (It was something different to write about). Quote : Does it bother you that you have put yourself in a place where scriptural answers are so intertwined with garbage that for all practical purposes they cannot be found? It doesn’t seem to. I am in this 'world' but i am not part of this 'world'. Almighty God and Jesus Christ did not want to take us out of this 'world'. Every day i read things and sometimes hear things which go completely against 'scriptural answers'. BUT I am not shaken. My faith in God through Christ is strong. Do you prefer to hide away ? Is your faith weak ? And once again your jealousy of the True Anointed shows through. Those True Anointed are the Body of Christ, tom.

James Thomas Rook Jr. was a member of this forum. He was possibly a JW but has some 'individual' ideas and a loss of self control. I did not know him well enough to state ay thing else.

Um, something new to look at then, if I'm bored. Of course I'd be 'good'.

Xero is in the private club ? Wow. And JWI has proven that Xero is not a present Elder. And Xero's comments are far from Christian. Yep, you guys have an intruder.

If i was a member of any club then found out it was immoral and wicked, then i would resign. It not only makes a statement of objecting to the immorality and wickedness, but it makes a complete break from that club / organisation. I accept that the Watchtower and JW organisations (plural) have given themselves fale authority, much like a dictatorship. I prayed to God through Christ before resigning, so my conscience was clear on the matter. I was able to tell a few brothers why i was leaving before it was announced from the platform. I was able to make a complete break, without pretending to just being 'inactive'. I had enough faith in God and Christ to be able to 'loose' the 120 'brothers/sisters' in the congregation without getting upset about it. And now, anyone i tell about the immorality and wickedness of the Watchtower / JW orgs, will know that i am not hypocritcal because i left as soon as I had proved to myself the seriouslness of the situation. And yes i have made statements online about the things I have learnt through doing my own research and through this forum. Of course JWs do not like my faith in God and Christ. JWs do not like my onging confidence in being able to 'survive' without the Org. JWs do not like that I continue to make known the sins of the GB, the Watchtower and the JW Orgs. And JWs do not like that i know the difference between serving God, and, serving Men. And I will contiue to serve God.

Billy you are most strange. You must have just read that i wrote that I live by Bible principles based on Christ's words. I also said that i don't live by the Mosaic Law, because I am not an Israelite. So are you going to the temple to offer a bull in sacrife for your sins then ? Do you live by the Mosaic Law ? By the way the Moasic Law is NOT first century teachings. You are so strange.

Thank you Tom. That's great. Much appreciated.

Oh dear he drags us back into YE OLDE HEBREW SCRIPTURE again. We ARE living in the time of Principles based on the teachings of Christ. WE ARE NOT ISRAELITES. And as for the other suggestion, You have no idea what some of us have suffered from Elders, no idea at all. But as @Witness constantly tells you, the Elders DO kill people spiritually, which is just as bad as killing physically. If you add the belief of your GB, that ONLY BAPTISED JWs WILL BE SAVED. Then disfellowshipping for false reasons is killing a person. And that is what the JW Elders do.

Just read this. Just listen to the ORDERS BEING GIVEN, the DICTATORSHIP. Who does this man think he is ?

I do wish that those people obsessed with AN ORGANISATION, would tell me, in chronological order, which Organisations Almighty God was using from the year 100 through to the year 1850. All complete names of ALL the organisations, with dates from and to, please. I look forward to your thorough reply, because you people seem to be so confident that you have these answers.

Spoken like a true Ex Elder xero. Keep trying and you may convince yourself that you are right. My conscience was functioning very well when I 'resigned' from JW Org. The 'light of scripture' tells me that the Watchtower / GB / JW Org, are all serving the Devil right now. I say serving the Devil because the Org teaches that no one can sit on the fence. An Elder keeps phoning my wife and telling her that. So, as the GB / Orgs are not serving God properly, they must be serving the Devil. I don't reject any Bible book, I just know that most of the Hebrew is history that was important to the Jews, but Jerusalem was destroyed in 70 C.E. and that proved God's rejection of the Nation of Israel, and Christians live by Christ's teachings and the writings of the Apostles which were inspired by God's Holy spirit. You keep PRETENDING that organisation is the same as AN Organisation. People can be organised without being AN Organisation. You do know that RUSSELL, the very man that started the Watchtower, said people do NOT need and Organiton. I think the Pope says that God delegates authority to him. Your GB also pretend that God delegates authority to them. . Saying it does not prove it to be true. You love to 'tell me' that i can't go it alone. But in scripture many people have been lone humans. Some of the prophets had to go it alone and had to run for their lives when their whole nation was against them. I am wise enough not to permanently close any doors. But right now NO Organisation is serving God properly and i will not deliberately insult Almighty God by being part of a wicked Organisation that pretend to serve God.

This is not really a serious topic, it's more of, Have you ever heard of such a thing ? My son who is 26 and spends a lot of time 'online,' came to me with an unusual topic of discussion. He has been reading online that, there are people which believe that where the Hebrew scriptures mention homosexuality, it is really talking about pedophilia. He says that he has read, that a scripture about 'a man laying with a man' should be put to death, actually reads that 'a man laying with a young boy' should be put to death. It seems to imply that some people are saying it refers to pedophilia not homosexuality. I haven't investigated it at all for a couple of reasons. 1. From my viewpoint we do not live by the Hebrew / Mosaic Law, we live by the Bible principles given through Christ and the Apostles, recorded in the Greek scriptures. 2. I think those people involved in this 'way of thinking' are trying to justify homosexuality, and I know that Almighty God hates / condemns homosexuality as shown in Romans 1 verses 24 through 27. The point of the topic is that i had never heard of people using the 'reasoning' that the Hebrew scriptures referred to pedophilia not homosexuality. Any thought ?
