#43 Is New Light, True Light? Quick Questions For Jehovah’s Witnesses

August 30, 2013 10:17 am / Leave a Comment /

This question is directed at Jehovah’s Witnesses who may be unfamiliar with the Watchtower’s history of changing the identity of the Faithful and Discreet Slave mentioned in Matthew 24. This doctrine is being changed yet again, reflected in the articles discussed in the July 15, 2013 Study Edition of the Watchtower magazine.

To know more about these changes, read these excellent articles.

Quick Questions For Jehovah’s Witnesses is a series of quick questions for JWs (hence the name) and other interest parties to ponder. The answers to the questions just might be a little more revealing than most JWs would want to admit.

2013 Evidence Ministries Football Pool!

August 29, 2013 1:10 pm / Leave a Comment /

Are you ready for some football? I created a football pool seven years ago and invited family and friends to join. Since then I have opened it up to friends of the ministry. Competition will be stiffer this year and I hope to see someone topple our current two-time, defending champion, Chi Town. The winner of the season gets a $20 gift card to the restaurant of their choice. Sorry folks, but that means the winner has to be someone here in the US of A.

In order to join, you must register as a user athttp://www.poolhost.com/ When registering, you will choose a personal username and password. Once you’ve entered PoolHost.com as a registered user, go to the ‘User Tools’ menu and choose ‘Join a Private Pool’. Click on the “Pro Football Pick’em” icon in the upper left corner and then you will be asked to enter the Pool’s Login Name and the Pool’s Password.

For the Pool’s Login Name type: EMfootballpool

For the Pool’s Password type: football

That’s it and then you’re in! The next time you login to http://www.poolhost.com/, you can go to ‘My Pools’ and you’ll see all pools that you belong to. Clicking on a pool name will take you to that pool. You can switch to a different pool by going to ‘My Pools’ again at any time. To Register, click here.

The only thing I ask is that if you are going to sign up for the football pool, please consider also signing up for our Evidence Ministries Newsletter and our email update list. You can do that here. There is no cost for the pool or the newsletters. Join in and lets have some fun!

And yes, this is open for Jehovah’s Witnesses and Mormons too. 😉

Rehashing the Name of God with a Jehovah’s Witness Elder

August 29, 2013 10:30 am / 6 Comments /

This week was very different than the last two weeks. My Jehovah’s Witness elder friend was in a very good mood and we joked around for more than a half hour before we got into our study. Another man came with him this time. JW2 has come before and we enjoy each other’s company. Our study began with JW1 asking a question out of the blue. Read More →

Discussing The Authority Of The Watchtower With A Jehovah’s Witness Elder, Part 2

August 27, 2013 10:33 am / 21 Comments /

You do not HAVE to obey.

(Picking up where we left off yesterday. Read yesterday’s “part one” post for context.)
It got very quiet. The intensity level of our conversation was thicker than it has ever been. My friend took a moment to look at Matthew 4:4 and think about it. He began to pull at his tie and loosen up his collar. He eyes were wide with shock. He again referred back to Apollos and made a distinction between doctrine and opinion in what Priscilla and Aquila were teaching him. I told him the difference was that in that case, Apollos was teaching correct doctrine and was given more information. Yet the July 15, 2013 Watchtower is changing its doctrine completely.

KW: The Watchtower is saying, “We use to believe this way, but now we don’t believe that anymore. Now we believe this and you’ve got to accept it because we are the voice of God. If you don’t believe it, we’re going to kick you out.” That is the way it comes across to me. Read More →

Discussing The Authority Of The Watchtower With A Jehovah’s Witness Elder, Part 1

August 26, 2013 10:11 am / 2 Comments /

Believe me or get kicked out!

My Jehovah’s Witness Elder friend was extremely uncomfortable for the majority of our two and a half hour meeting. We picked up where we left off from last week. I wanted to talk more about the paragraph I brought up last week where the Watchtower claims to speak God’s Words. Most of our conversation was about this topic, but it took us roughly a half hour to get started. My Witness buddy confided in me about some serious health issues that run in his family. Read More →
