FACTS YOU WON'T BE TOLD WHEN JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES CALL AT YOUR DOOR
by Lori MacGregor
They believe & teach
THAT all religions except theirs are of Satan, and your Pastor or
Priest is under the Devil's control.
THAT the Watch Tower Society is the only source of truth on earth
today, and all churches teach error and will be destroyed at
Armageddon.
THAT the cross is a pagan symbol of sex worship, and that all
buildings or persons displaying the cross are likewise pagan.
Jehovah's Witnesses deny that Jesus died on the cross. However,
recent "new light" in the WatchTower Magazine now admits they
are not certain about the cross, but will continue to deny it
anyway.
THAT no one goes to heaven but 144,000 Jehovah's Witnesses, and
your soul will be destroyed if you refuse their organization.
THAT the Christ child was only an "IT", not a "HE". See the New
World Translation, Luke 2:16,17.
THAT Jesus was not the Christ (or Messiah) until age 30, even
though their own bible says in Luke 2:11, "because there was born
to you today a savior, who is Christ the Lord."
THAT after Jesus was buried in the tomb, Jerhovah dissolved his body
into gases and it disappeared forever.
THAT Jesus rose invisibly in three days, so Jehovah had to
"materialize" a fake body for him complete with fake nailprints
so His disciples would believe it was really Jesus risen.
THAT Armageddon and Christ's second coming were foretold to happen
in 1874, 1914, 1925 and 1975 by this "non-prophet" organization.
THAT when Christ failed to show up in 1914 The Society claimed in
later years that He had come invisibly--of course, and all
Jehovah's Witnesses believe this today.
THAT Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob etc. were to be back on earth
as perfect humans in 1925. The Society built a palacial home for
them BUT when the patriarchs failed to show up, the President
of the Society moved in.
THAT their light gets "brighter and brighter", allowing for many
changes and "about faces" on their doctrines. Yesterday's error is
today's "truth". Often the "light" bounces back and forth from
old to new views and back again! Does real light return to darkness?
THAT the Watch Tower Society and its followers are all prophets of
God today and the Governing Body is directed by angels from God.
THAT salvation for Society members consists of doing good works of
selling Watch Tower books and magazines and winning converts.
THAT soon Jehovah God will become a GRANDFATHER and Jesus will be
promoted to "EVERLASTING FATHER"!
THAT Jehovah God is not omnipresent, but still Almighty. Think!
How can this be?
They have NOT been told --
By the leadership of the Society ....
THAT when they translated their New World Translation of the Bible
they deliberately altered almost every scripture on the deity of
Christ, to make him only a creature.
THAT the Society used a translation by a SPIRIT MEDIUM, Johannes
Greber, to support their rendering of John 1:1 with full knowledge
that his sources were DEMONIC.
Greber was exposed in the Feb. 15/56 Watch Tower. However in 1961
they released a translation based on his occult one, then denied
they knew what they were doing on page 31 of the Apr. 1, 1983
Watchtower!
THAT none of their "translating committee" knew Biblical Greek
or Hebrew. No scholars at all.
That Fred Franz, who for many years headed the Society, perjured
himself under oath in Scotland in a court trial, by saying he
could read Hebrew, and then failing a simple Hebrew test.
THAT the following encyclopedias consider the name "JEHOVAH"
to be FALSE: Merits Student Enc.; Encyclopedia Americana;
The Jewish Enc.; Encyclopedia International, The Interpreters
Dictionary of the Bible; The New Catholic Enc.; The Universal
Jewish enc., [Encyclopaedia Britannica] etc.
J.W.'s own "Aid" book admits on pages 884 & 885 that "Jehovah"
originated with a Catholic monk about 700 years ago!
THAT the date 1874 was taught for Christ's invisible presence
by the Society right up till 1929. (See their book, "Prophecy",
page 65).
THAT top executives of the Society have admitted under oath that
they forced their members to accept false prophecies or face
disfellowshipping and be found worthy of death.
In Summary
We find the Watch Tower Society practising their belief that it is
proper to deceive people. But they say this really isn't lying.
Why? Because the Society has a different Definition of lying than
most of us. In their book "AID TO BIBLE UNDERSTANDING" under the
word "LIE" we read:
"Lying generally involves saying something false to a person who
is ENTITLED to know the truth....". "While malicious lying is
definitely condemned in the Bible, this does not mean that a
person is under obligation to divulge truthful information
to people who are not entitled to it".
OF course it is the Watch Tower leaders who decide WHO deserves
to know the truth.
DO YOU DESERVE TO KNOW THE TRUTH ?
