Jehovah's Witnesses and Independent Thinking

September 2007 Our Kingdom Ministry (an internal Jehovah's Witness publication) clamps down on individual Jehovah's Witnesses doing independent Bible research and study outside of the organisation!



The latest publication is very clear but not new. See:

The article is not about doing research per se. It is about ones setting themselves up as authorities within the congregation, publishing their own research findings, holding conferences, etc. Thus there is the potential pitfall of Christian disunity, which is not a good thing, and which the Bible frequently speaks against. For example:

For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you. Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul? I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius; Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name (1 Cor 1:11-15)

Watchtower cult is a Gospel of gobbledygook

Who are Jehovah's Witnesses?

Up close and personal Jehovah's Witnesses can be wolves in sheep's clothing.

Think about this-When the devil comes knocking on your door he may not have the 'dark goth look'.They could be smartly dressed and wielding the Christian Bible.

I have Jehovah's Witnesses family in the USA who practice the Watchtower JW enforced ritual shunning that i have not seen or heard from in 15 years.

The central core dogma of the Watchtower is Jesus second coming (invisibly) in 1914 and is a lie.Jehovah's Witnesses are a spin-off of the man made Millerite movement of 1840.

A destructive cult of false teachings, that frequently result in spiritual and psychological abuse, as well as needless deaths (bogus blood transfusion ban).

Yes,you can 'check out anytime you want but you can never leave',because they can and will hold your family hostage.

The world has the Internet now,and there are tens of thousands of pages up from disgruntled ex-Jehovah's Witnesses like myself who have been abused by the Watchtower cult.

The Watchtower is a truly Orwellian world.
