I know that the JW's survive only by forcing "Unity of thought rather than truth itself." Decades ago I found a lady who listened to what I was preaching. I told her about the GREAT UNITY! So she came with me to the KH and listened intently. After the meeting I asked her about that "UNITY" and she replied that every comment was just repeating what the Watchtower said. She observed that no one could express any heartfelt, spirit directed opinion. She was much smarter than me!!! I should have listened to our real Leader, Jesus Christ and the Advocate and teacher, the Holy Spirit. "When 2 or more gather in my name, I will be there! The Holy Spirit will guide you, remind you and teach you all things. John 14:26 No Watchtower. No GB. Just God's word, spirit and Jesus...(whom they ignore). It works! Try it!

Very true. Jehovah's Witnesses confuse "unity" with "uniformity". Prisoners in a State penitentiary are uniform in their dress, habits, and actions because they are closely restricted by the prison guards. The followers of the Nazi party in Germany were "uniformed" in their conduct, beliefs and acts against people they deemed "wicked". They were even "united" in their malicious and brutal treatments of their prisoners and their self proclaimed enemies! That doesn't make them righteous! Or approved by God!
Another good video Jan. Thank you. When you mentioned the scripture in 2 John, I would suggest the key verse is verse 7 where John states who he’s referring to - those who deny that “Jesus came in the flesh”. These were the itinerant agnostics of the day, particularly those who subscribed to Docetism. Clearly, such ones would not be greeted or welcomed into the home of true Christians. This passage of scripture has nothing to do with those who endeavour to correct false teachings

Exactly! I have saying this for 3 years on YT forums and videos. It was a parable and illustration used to impress the need of spiritual vigilance on Christ's followers! Just like the 2 subsequent parables you mentioned. IT WAS NOT A PROPHECY! When Jesus was making a "prediction" or a prophetic statement, he used the words and phrases like, "and then there will be; and "this will occur", or that will happen" and " they will do this or that", about 19 times from Matthew 24: 1-43 in my count! Jesus did NOT say, "and then there will be a small group of men who I will appoint over all of my sheep;...etc.etc... Amazing how blinded we could be and how blinded and brain dead the witnesses have become in the last 20 years especially.
Nice encapsulation of the "REAL Wizard of Oz"! As an ex-JW for 55 years; the last 10 years I was in, began to make manifest the real nature of the once inconspicuous governing body serving in NY headquarters. They are authoritarian, condescending, haughty, manipulative, controlling, and will not apologize for their mistakes! A direct conflict with inspired scripture. "To the older men of the congregation, I say, ....Shepherd the flock of GOD, (not YOUR sheep; they're God's!), willingly, not for love of dishonest gain, NEITHER LORDING IT OVER THOSE WHO ARE GOD'S INHERITANCE, but becoming examples."" Read Matthew 23: 1-13 in your Bible and see if that description of the scribes and pharisees of Jesus' day parallel the modern day governing body and congregation elders of JW's!!
Funny you should say that I was raised a JW, but never got baptized I started seeing a shrink at 14 And stopped for a while, at 18 I restarted therapy when I was 19 This was after I nearly killed myself In my college algebra classroom, I aimed to stab my neck Another student screamed The professor turned around, to see what was going on! Since she heard the girl scream The same girl took the pen away from me And was like, "were you trying to kill yourself?" I nodded, with tears in my eyes The professor told me to go to the counselor's office So, I did After I told them the story, they had to call 911 I was then taken to the hospital And stayed overnight, in the psych ward After getting some answers, they placed me in a psychiatric clinic Which is where I saw a therapist for a while I was then diagnosed with depression Nowadays, I feel much better!
So sorry for all of you. Until now you all do not understand what really is this thing called the kingdom of God. If you are reading your Bible, that is in fact the overall theme of the entire Bible. Refuting the very teachings of Jehovah’s Witnesses will not make you any better without knowing what really is this kingdom of God. “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all the rest shall be added unto you.” Meaning this kingdom is really important. This is the very foundation of everything that we hope for. Then what is it? Only Jehovah’s Witnesses knew. Which is why they’re preaching it all over the world. Yes, Christ said that we should preach it to all nations. But how can you preach it if you do not know about it after all? Jehovah’s Witnesses teachings they can explain that better. You cannot dispute that because you do not agree. Or if you are an apostate, you cannot say it’s wrong now because you ceased to continue being one of Jehovah’s loyal worshipers. I pity those whom in reality do not have the true knowledge of the Bible, yet have the guts to tell it in here how it should be understood. Sorry, Jehovah’s Witnesses are already all over the world. They have covered the entire earth unlike anyone of you. You cannot destroy them anymore, no matter what you will do. Nobody but nobody can defeat Jehovah.
I was a Jehovah's witness as I tell in my videos. I am thankful for the things that were true I got to learn there. But so much is wrong there so I have to help people. And let's be realistic. Jehovah's witnesses have had success in Christian countries where somebody already taught people about the Bible. Without that the results for Jehovah's witnesses would have been as is now in non-Christian countries. So Jehovah's witnesses should not be so proud of themselves. Especially when there are so many false teachings and the Govering Body hinders those who try to inform about what is wrong. So in general Jehovah's witnesses are not for the truth. And that is unacceptable for Jehovah God, who seeks those who worship him in spirit and truth. If words don't help. Then Jehovah God has to allow persecution until a change happens. So all the prophecies about presecution will come true. There is still no spiritual paradise or pure doctrine.
Sorry for that, but you can always hide the image and just listen. I understand the image is not human. Or if you listen on a phone, then the image is smaller and the difference isn't so big. But I will try to do in person videos. I have infact 2 in Finnish. I will try today upload with only translation. So I will appers in person and not as an AI. The video will be about God's Love.

@jankosonen315 most people if not all are enemies of Jehovah/Yahweh because he is the devil. Jesus warned the Hebrews/Israelites in John 8:44 that they were from their father the devil who was a murderer and a liar from the beginning. They worshipped Yahweh.
It is surely hard to understand. There seem to be like 10 scriptures that are in agreement, but then there is always one that contradicts. What should be done with the one that does not fit in?
"The Governing Body has decided...." 😮
