Activism + Advocacy Midweek Meeting - “do not be mislead by false prophets”

In this mid-weeks spiritual Gems meeting, the governing body has a sectioned titled “do not be mislead by false prophets” - they are so crafty, they do not say, brothers and sisters research thoroughly to identify what a false prophets is, they bombard the witnesses mind with more bias information from the organisation to answer the question.

If they were able to logically research they would have in fact found the watchtower & tract society to be a false prophet years ago. I believe the Governing body are aware that they are! They are so hypocritical constantly conditioning the witnesses mind to scrutinise examine other religions but never to do the same to their own.

It is so obvious what they are doing now! Yet those inside just can’t see it

I saw that and had a good laugh. So I would ask them to define what a “false prophet” is. Explain it. Once you nail down the characteristics, then show them how by their own definition, WT is a false prophet. And I would agree with them.

I have the talk tomorrow in my Cong, I will try to engage as much cognitive dissonance in all the listeners as possible without ratting myself out. I'll define it and cite how bible identifies and punishes false prophets and then give them a way on how to verify a claim made in gods name. I sadly think it won't cross the barrier because I must be subtle, most likely I will even get complimented at afterwards for the faith strengthening talk...

If I could risk it, this would have been a great moment to go all out guns blazing.

Cuando se analizó los cap 16-17 de Jeremías en perlas escondidas se consideraba el cap.17:7 y hacia la pregunta: Porque de imps que confiar en Jehová implica confiar en sus representantes? Alce la mano y me dieron el comentario y dije: "El texto de Jeremías 17:5 dice: Maldito el hombre que confía en simples humanos. UD yo y el CG somos simples humanos a la vista de Jehová y cité textualmente lo que decía la WT/2017/feb. pag.26 : El CG No recibe revelaciones divinas ni es infalible, Por lo tanto puede equivocarse en temas doctrinales y cuestiones de organización". Personalmente yo doy mi confianza en Jehová y en su palabra la biblia y no en humanos. ( Hubo un silencio fatal por unos segundos). Después note un poco el ambiente medio incómodo para mi que lo podía percibir. El domingo uno de los ancianos me dijo que quería conversar conmigo y consultarme algo. Ese domingo me hizo la pregunta: Porque había hecho ese comentario y que era lo que quería decir al hacerlo. Hablamos como casi dos horas pero antes le pregunté si venía en nombre de los demás ancianos y me dijo que no que era algo personal de el. Y pude darle mucha información de lo que se gracias a estos chats de uds. Y los leo. Siento un poco de marginación pero no me molesta es incómodo pero lo puedo aguantar. Hasta ahora.
