Dear friends,
It is according scripture that demands my letter to you. Ezekiel 33:9 “But if you warn someone wicked to turn back from his way and he refuses to change his course, he will die for his error, but you will certainly save your life.”
The Bible specifically admonishes us to “test
all things” (1 Thess. 5:21) because over time, many would arise who would claim
sole representation of God, dispensing His teachings. You agree that scripture rather than man’s
commands is imperative. But do you agree
with the scripture and to be vigilant in testing whether teachings are true, or
if they are lies of Satan? If not,
reconsider that scriptural admonition to “test all things.”
Surely you are aware by now of Brother Jackson’s testimony at the Australian Royal Commission inquiry regarding Watchtower policy and child sexual abuse. If not, his testimony is available on the governmental website, https://www.childabuseroyalcommission.gov.au/case-studies/case-study-29-jehovahs-witnesses. I have watched the video and read the transcripts. Brother Jackson said that he and his governing body members consider themselves “Guardians of Doctrine,” and that “it would be quite presumptuous to think we are the only spokesperson for God.” The disgraceful defamation they have brought upon the God [Jehovah - Wikipedia] with their child abuse scandals and cover ups made it immediately clear that they are not true representatives of God and Christ. Examining the scriptures has found that their interpretation of scripture is not from Jehovah and Jesus, and they are not speaking for Them.
The governing body is not a term found in
the Bible however, they have given themselves this authoritative title (albeit
a corporate title), and despite their double speak when claiming they are not
prophets, they act as prophets, saying that God and Christ speak through them. This scripture wholly applies to them: Deut. 18:20 “’If any prophet presumptuously
speaks a word in my name that I did not command him to speak or speaks in the
name of other gods, that prophet must die. 21 However, you may say in your
heart: “How will we know that Jehovah has not spoken the word?” 22 When the
prophet speaks in the name of Jehovah and the word is not fulfilled or does not
come true, then Jehovah did not speak that word. The prophet spoke it
presumptuously. You should not fear him.’”
Jesus too warned us of false prophets
arising. He described how we can discern
the difference between true and false prophets. Matthew 7:15 “Be on the watch
for the false prophets who come to you in sheep’s covering, but inside they are
ravenous wolves. 16 By their fruits you will recognize them. Never do people
gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles, do they?” Fruits are teachings, are they not? So either prophets speak truth, truth that
endures and that is founded in the Word of God, or they teach self-serving
human doctrine, which is like rotten fruit…teachings that expire and need to be
replaced (John 7:16-18; 8:28,47,50; Deut. 11:18; Matt. 15:9; Rev. 13:16). We are not ignorant to Watchtower teachings
expiring. The organization’s entire
history contains changing doctrine and “end day” dates (i.e., 1975, “end of
twentieth century), failed calculations using “this generation,” all of which
after the fact, expire, and must be replaced with “new light.”
Is not God’s Word clear and succinct? A false prophet is a false prophet (Deut.18:20-22). Where is your loyalty? With our Father and Christ, or with men who claim to speak for them? Each one of us must decide for ourselves who we want to listen to. Jesus did not say who was the “faithful and discreet slave,” but asked, “Who then is the faithful and sensible slave whom his master put in charge of his household to give them their food at the proper time?” [NASB]. The governing body claims to be a steward over all the household of anointed, and forbids fellow anointed from speaking. Is it scriptural that fellow anointed are admonished not to speak, thus telling them not to contribute what the spirit has revealed to them? Is this command according to the way the body of Christ is to act? They have forgotten that each chosen one is a member of the body. 1 Cor. 12:27, “Now you are Christ’s body, and each of you individually is a member.” Is there any part of Christ’s body Jesus said was of no use and to remain silent? Most abhorrently, these chosen ones who are directly anointed with Spirit, are commanded to be obedient, to be in submission to not-anointed elders - those without Spirit, and are being trampled by them. "The Disgusting Thing Standing in a Holy Place" Matt.24:15 (pearl-disgustingthing.blogspot.com) Review the scriptures and prayerfully reflect upon ancient Israel and the priesthood who alone were divinely appointed to render serve in God's Temple. WELCOME--MAIN PAGE: "Disgusting Thing" rationalized (4womaninthewilderness.blogspot.com)
The scripture is clear, “As for you, the
anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to
teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things and as that
anointing is real, not counterfeit-just as it has taught you, remain in him” (1
John 2:27). Carefully consider Luke
12:45 and think about this silencing of fellow anointed ones and who might fit
the description of the “wicked steward.”
Yes, the governing body is the “wicked steward,” beating the master’s,
Jesus’, servants, not allowing them to contribute what the Spirit has taught
them. Not anointed elders judge such
ones, and disfellowship them, “killing” them if they do not submit all
authority and recognition to the eight leaders of Watchtower who promote their
own doctrine, not Christ’s.
I have not left Jehovah/YHVH/Father, and am
concerned about those who remain and are spiritually drunk from the teachings
of men and who are not carefully scrutinizing teachings from leaders who
proclaim that they “not inspired and can err in doctrinal matters.” Our Father and His son do not relay truths
that expire. It is blasphemous to think
that Jehovah and Jesus are incapable of communicating truth and are wishy washy
in dispensing everlasting sayings to their servants. You may ask as Simon Peter did… where will
you go? Remember, Simon Peter did not
ask where to go! “Simon Peter answered
him: “Lord, whom shall we go away to? You have sayings of everlasting
life” (John 6:68). Jesus said, John 14:4
“And where I am going, you know the way.” 5 Thomas said to him: “Lord, we do
not know where you are going. How can we know the way?” 6 Jesus said to him: “I
am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except
through me” (John 14:4-6). Jesus did
not say go to the Jehovah’s Witnesses religious organization, or to the Watchtower
corporation. Acts 17:24 states, “The God
who made the world and all the things in it, being, as he is, Lord of heaven
and earth, does not dwell in handmade temples.”
“God is Spirit, and those who worship Him
must worship in spirit and truth” (John 4:24).
Please wake up, do not be dazzled by the
showy display and empty deceptive talk of the rebellious anointed leaders you
ingest teachings from…no early apostle or disciple of Christ received adulation
as the Watchtower governing body does, nor would Jesus or his apostles be found
when on earth, living at a compound with housing, food, laundry service,
personal doctors, lawyers, and assistants.
Please give prayerful consideration while
you open up the scriptures. Test all
things. Truth always
stands up to scrutiny. Consult Strong’s
or the Greek Interlinear as Watchtower has made several key changes and omissions
that suit their doctrine. A good
resource is Biblehub.com, which will provide the actual Greek word. You may want to begin with Rev. 5:10 and
compare the NWT to the Greek words. Is
your salvation dependent on belonging to a man-made organization?
Only you answer to our Father and Jesus, only
you are judged by them. Your attachment to Watchtower is not salvation, in
fact, it is a death sentence. https://pearl-satansthrone.blogspot.com/
“And I heard another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people,
lest you share in her sins, and lest you
receive of her plagues” (Rev. 18:4).
Warm love,
Rachel
