Thanks, starbird. That was an excellent synopsis of the bad fruit I, too, experienced in the Way. That's the false religion you're speaking of, right?

hi TheEvan.

i havnt ever been involved in the way, in fact i'd never heard of it till i came here

false religion is not one particular religion its a collective of religions

from what i know of the way i'd say they're part of that collective.

along with:

pentecostal

baptist

catholic

methodist

mormons

muslim

hindu

siekhs

any religion that lets pagan practices and false teachings interfere with pure worship of god.

picture the scene. a harlot is sitting on the back of a fearsome beast.

the beast has seven heads and ten horns. {rev 17:1-4}

I know this isn't exact (therefore will be dismissed) but is this close?

I think the reason it's not close is, the beast is a shape shifting type. Therefore, the photographer didn't get it in the proper mode. Also, the harlot didn't feel like wearing purple that day, it clashed with her vehicle.

Be careful you're not caught up in the cleansing there, starbird! Its mighty difficult to determine which is false and which is true religion. One little slip and you're a goner...

Not to mention that there are things that the groups get right as well as things they get terribly wrong...... AND, that none of us really know which parts are right and which parts are wrong. We just think we do. ^_^

False religion?

False religion is a belief that all religions besides the one you believe is wrong. At the same time, the religion you believe is being labeled by someone else as false.

Since every religion has its share of adherents willing to be martyrs for it, the only way to get rid of these "false religions" is to kill its followers. Much like King Josiah did when he "found" the book of the law, established the first monotheism in Judia (second in recorded history, by my count, with Egypt trying it first), and proceeded to kill the followers of the other religions (baal, ashera, el, etc). Or like the Romans did after Christianity was declared the official religion of the state to those who practiced polytheism. Or like the Roman Catholic's did with the blessing of Constantine in killing off all other "Christians" who disagreed with their accepted doctrine. And on and on...

Or you can get your god to come down and wipe everyone out for you, as Revelations predicts (I have no idea why one would look at Revelations and want the kind of life it spells out). Either way, you've got a lot of people (billions) that need killing in order to remove the "false" religion.

Beloved All

God loves us all my dear friends

is it about man made groups

I say NO

its about each person personal heart

it does not matter which group one goes to

but what in each persons heart

God is a personal God

while that was a good study its not about which church but whether we share out of love or out of wants

when this end come there will be some token out of every man made group even the Way Ministry cult

thank you

In JW speak, the world empire of False Religion "fell" in 1918 and has been shrinking ever since.

Which of course doesnt explain the expansion of Mormonism or especially Pentecostalism since that date.

And the foretold destruction of False Religion at the hands of the United Nations is.....well....nowhere in sight.

Well, since the third date set (1918 was the third year when the Apocalypse was

predicted, and 1975 was the fourth), the world still seems to be moving along.

This is an incredibly slow Apocalypse.

If you're looking for converts, this is the wrong p[ace.

We're pretty convert-resistant, have been burned before

("once bitten, twice shy") and have little interest in having

our heads shaved again or any other cult initiation.

Nevertheless, if you really want to dance this dance, by all means,

I'll call for the orchestra.....

Beloved starbird

God loves you my friend

Look I care about you heart so let me talk at you because its look like your pushing your beliefs not sharing

God lets each person make up their own mind

He gives us all free will

So the JW is about numbers but God not about numbers God is about each person personally

I could give you numbers there are more EX-JW sites each year they are growing

Ok I will give you numbers

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0

is that enough numbers are do you need for

because I can even teach you about numbers

thank you

[starbird]

please dont patronize me roy

i gave those figures in answer to a previous reply.

you sent me a private message roy saying you dont have anything against

jehovahs witnesses then promptly went over to an ex jehovahs witness site

and wrote a post:

jw witnessing to ex way members about blood issue:

telling people to come over and have a good laugh and a gorp basically.

nice...

God loves you my dear friend

Yes I went over to Ex-JW and wrote a tread before I privated you but I go over there a lot

as a lot of them come over here a lot I feel me and EX-JW have a lot in common

yes I have nothing against you and just want to help you

I did not tell them to have a good laugh but to join in the debate because they know more about JW then me

I sure they would welcome you there

you might want to know some of the bad things JW has done in the past but you have to be careful because some are in a lot of pain

being cut off from friends because you no longer in a basic group is not the love and God told us to love one another

yes I mock the use of numbers because growing in love and growing in truth has nothing to do with numbers

plus I was trying to get you see its not about numbers but about our personal walk

its not about a teaching wrote by another but your personal views of what you believe while you look to see if you can learn more

only then can we get a better picture because our hearts are open to all the many parts of truth

thank you

with love and a holy kiss blowing your way Roy
