Description:

Watchtower quotes that only Jehovah's Witnesses will be saved, and why this is unreasonable. A look at the unique life being raised as one of Jehovah's Witnesses. Jehovah's witnesses are not allowed blood transfusions, even at the risk of death. Learn why this is unscriptural. Famous active and former Jehovah's Witnesses, including pictures, videos, interviews and quotes. In-depth analysis of the falling growth of Jehovah's Witnesses.A Nov 2020 Watchtower announcement advised that over 5,000 Jehovah's Witnesses had died from Covid-19, a tragedy for all those affected by such loss. It highlights God does not afford Jehovah's Witnesses protection, and that the Governing Body are not enlightened to protect their followers. They have simply directed them to abide by the guidance of local governments, which varies in effectiveness by country. The spread of viruses may be slowed by vaccines and treatments based on blood plasma. Watchtower doctrine is convoluted on blood fractions, and Jehovah's Witnesses are theoretically allowed plasma treatments that may save their life, but generally unaware these treatments are a "conscience matter." For more details see Jehovah's Witnesses and Covid-19 Every global catastrophe has Jehovah's Witnesses besides themselves that Armageddon is about to arrive. This has been the case since the religion's inception in the 1870's, triggered by each prominent war, recession, earthquake, famine or epidemic. COVID-19 is no exception. The global response has been to implement measures aimed at keeping the numbers of death to a minimum until a vaccine is found. This is an incredible advancement, yet Watchtower draws on control through fear by presenting it as proof pestilence is greater than ever before, and the Last Days are at their end. To believe such shows tragic historical ignorance. Disease takes a lower toll on human life than any other time in history, evidence of which is that global life expectancy has doubled over the last century. Are these the Last Days? compares information published by Watchtower with research into whether there has been an increase in war, pestilence, earthquake and famine since 1914, with astounding findings.

This site assists people, and particularly youths, cope after they realize Watchtower is not “the truth.” You are not alone, and it offers support and advice via short articles, and links to useful resources, forums and free support phone lines. Go to jw.support JWfacts makes it as simple as possible to determine if Jehovah's Witnesses have “the truth.” Since its 1879 inception, Watchtower has preached “the End” will be soon, originally predicting it would occur in 1914, then 1925, and “within our twentieth century.” This claim was subsequently adjusted to say the Great Tribulation will be very shortly, culminating in billions of humans being killed at God's war of Armageddon. This site concentrates on three areas: With a history of significant errors and changes, can God be directing the Watchtower Society? Is the Watchtower honest when quoting secular sources and presenting its history? Are current Watchtower doctrine and practices justified Biblically? Continue reading ... Watchtower is coming under increasing scrutiny for how they have dealt with pedophiles by the media and courts. This includes an Australian Royal Commission finding in 2017 that Watchtower procedures are out of date and damaging to victims, $13.5 million awarded to Lopez in 2014, and the 2012 case Candice Jane Doe vs Watchtower resulting in a judgement against Watchtower to pay $2.8 million dollars in damages. This article explains Watchtower policy regarding child abuse, and how these policies have provided protection for known pedophiles to continue offending within congregations. Continue reading ... It is rare to see one of Jehovah’s Witnesses sporting a beard, yet the standard regarding beards has been rarely discussed in any Watchtower. This article discusses the history of bearded brothers, quotes Watchtower advice on the matter, and shows how it is enforced by social identification pressure. Continue reading ... If you are studying with one of Jehovah's Witnesses, click the image for a pamphlet explaining fundamental Watchtower concepts and practices you should be aware of, but will not be told up front. Available in English, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, German, Dutch, Estonian and Chinese. Continue reading ... Jehovah's Witnesses disfellowship those that are deemed unrepentant wrongdoers, for practices such as disagreeing with Watchtower doctrine, smoking or fornication. A disfellowshipped person is to be shunned by family and friends, usually for the remainder of their life, so go through tremendous emotional suffering. Although there is Scriptural precedence to avoid people practicing wrongdoing, the Watchtower application of disfellowshipping seriously deviates from Bible guidelines in multiple ways. Continue reading ... Watchtower has promoted six different explanations for “this generation” of Matthew 24:34. Many Witnesses based their life choices on the generation doctrine that Armageddon would arrive before all those born prior to 1914 had died. The irrational 2010 change to an “overlapping” generation can be seen as a desperate attempt to ignite urgency in Jehovah's Witnesses. Can an organization that makes ongoing critical doctrinal errors rightfully claim to be directed by God? Follow the remarkable history of this doctrine through over 100 years of Watchtower quotes, and see how the Governing Body continued to adjust the teaching in order to make Jehovah's Witnesses think the end would take place within a few years. Continue reading ... Jehovah's Witnesses are to refuse blood transfusions on the belief that the Bible forbids use of blood under any circumstance. Awake! 1994 May 22 p.2 admits that children of Jehovah's Witnesses have been losing their lives in support of this doctrine. The Watchtower stance is not only dangerous, but unscriptural and plagued with logical inconsistencies. Continue reading ... The teaching that the Last Days started in 1914 is fundamental to the existence of the Watchtower Society, based on Jerusalem being destroyed in 607 B.C. However, all evidence proves Jerusalem to have fallen in 587 B.C., removing any basis for this Watchtower doctrine, and hence the reliant one that the Watchtower Governing Body was chosen in 1919. This is but one of many flaws of Watchtower interpretation regarding the Seven Times of Daniel 4. Continue reading ... Watchtower has made an incredible range of audacious statements over the years. For instance, over half a century ago it assured; “If you are a young person, you also need to face the fact that you will never grow old in this present system of things.” Awake! 1969 May 22 p.15 Or compare the difference when referring to people who want to join Jehovah's Witnesses, with those that leave: “No one should be forced to worship in a way that he finds unacceptable or be made to choose between his beliefs and his family.” Awake! 2009 Jul p.29 “Do not look for excuses to associate with a disfellowshipped family member, for example, through e-mail.” Watchtower Study Edition 2013 Jan 15 p.16 Here are some of my favourite. Continue reading ... It is frustrating to have family and friends belong to a high control religion, and very difficult to change a person’s belief. No matter how obviously wrong the religion is, cognitive dissonance prevents a person giving up what they are comfortable with. It is critical to learn what is important to the person you are trying to reach, in order to understand how to help them. Whilst you will want loved ones to know why Watchtower is not the truth, do not rush into confronting them. You risk being labelled as apostate, which will destroy any relationship you have, and any chance of educated discussion. Continue reading ... The following video from revealnews.org Feb 2015 by reporter Trey Bundy is the best summary I have seen of the history and doctrine of Jehovah's Witnesses, all in under 5 minutes.
