      @JDG1971- Greetings and thank you so much for your kind comment. I wanted to let you know that I will be in Netherlands, in Ellecom area July 26-29 and then traveling a little more there until the 2 of August. I would like to meet up with you if you could be available. It would be so nice to meet in person. I see you are south west nearly on the border of Belgium. It is only a little more than 2 hours away from Ellecom. Please email me at meleti.vivlon@gmail.com. You are welcome to join a small group of us as well, if possible.

    The Bible does not say we must belong to a specific religious organization and Jesus never said we need to associate with a specific religious organization. In fact the word organization is not found in the Bible . He didn't even give a scripture to back up his statements about a specific religious organization. Great job Eric at exposing them for who they really are .

      But didn't Jesus use Petter as the foundation of the Christianity? If he didn't want all Cristian to be congregated or be together in some way, why did he do that?

      Matt 16:18 "And I say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it" (NKJV)
      What is the rock that Jesus is referring to?
      Let's look at verse 16; "Simon Peter answered and said, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." The rock is Jesus Christ Himself, the chief cornerstone spoken of throughout the Bible. It was Peter's declaration of faith of this truth as revealed to him by God the Father of Jesus being the rock, the chief cornerstone that the Kingdom of God will be built on. The Roman Catholic Church has misunderstood and misused this scripture to establish themselves as God's authority on earth. But that was never accurate. Jesus makes it crystal clear that only He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life - there is no other way but Him. All those in union with Christ make up His church wherever they are on earth at any time period. We worship and fellowship with other fellow believers in Christ which are all over the world in various churches. The key is to find a church that holds the true Biblical & Apostolic Gospel as taught in the Scriptures. Personally, I have found those churches that are connected to Reform Theology hold to the Biblical Apostolic teachings and offer the richest teachings of Scripture, Biblical & Church history. Now, unfortunately due to the sin nature in humanity they do divide over various issues. But those are secondary & tertiary issues. However, they are united in the core understanding of the Biblical Gospel of Jesus Christ and stand united. The Watchtower controlled the entire narrative that we as former JWs based our knowledge on - and it was wrong. It was only after I gave myself permission to research outside of the Watchtower's publications that I started to learn the real truth. I began listening to Christian radio, TV, books, etc. along with reading my Bible and praying constantly for God's wisdom, direction, and guidance. Teachings had to harmonize with Scripture. Heck! Just Google your questions and you will find more truth online than in Watchtower publications!!
      TH-cam has many great ministries to help one learn the truth. Besides our brother here on Beroean Pickets there is also Mike Winger, Bible Thinker that is excellent. Then there is Ligonier Ministries with RC Sproul, and Grace To You with John MacArthur. Ligonier Ministries and Grace To You are in the Calvinism stream. I personally do not agree with their teaching on election but everything else they teach is solid. I personally believe the teachings of Mike Winger and SOTERIOLOGY 101 with Dr Leighton Flowers are Biblically correct on this topic of election/determinism.
      I know I've said a lot here - and I hope it helps. May God bless, guide and keep you. 🙏🙏🕊️❤️

      Correct, Peter did not call Jesus a rock. Peter called him the Christ, the son of God. Jesus Christ the prophesied Messiah is the rock, the chief cornerstone upon which rests the Kingdom of God. Jesus states clearly that only He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Jesus affirmed what was revealed to Peter by God the Father and further connected it to Himself as the foretold cornerstone(rock). This is attested to by faithful Christian theologians &
      scholars of the ancient Biblical texts & Church history. Although I have done extensive research regarding this point and am convinced of this application for myself each one has to research these things for themselves. I only meant to share my experience and encourage others to do research. I thank you for sharing your comment and wish you and all trying to find truth grace & peace.
      On a slightly different note, I am still learning how commenting works. I cannot find my first reply that I sent. I don't see it anywhere, so please forgive me - I am not sure how or where one will see this comment. I have recently drummed up the courage to comment where I feel led to and still have much to learn about how to navigate these things!

    You said [31.40] "when you say something over and over, it becomes true in the mind of your listeners."
    This is so very true, and one of the reasons why it is so difficult to leave the JW organization. I learned in school that once you hear something 15 times, it becomes ingrained in you.
    This is a tactic that the JW organization likes to use. They pick out a few scriptures, put their spin on it, and keep repeating it, year after year after year.
    (I personally struggled with the understanding of Matthew 24:45.)
    If you want to know the truth, the REAL truth, you MUST read the Bible for yourself. Look at and understand the words used. (Look up the meaning of words in the dictionary if you must.)
    In the bible, God's promise is: 'if you search for me with all your heart, I will let myself be found by you' (Jeremiah 29: 8-9, 12-13.).
    The way to God is through His word, the bible - not through men and their interpretation.
    The truth is that we can learn from one another, (Proverbs 27:17), but our salvation comes only from listening to, and following our Creator, ... not men.

    One biblical verse I have not heard used by JW's (and other religious groups) is - Matthew 18:19-20 New King James Version (NKJV)
    “Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.” So surely, an organisation is not required at all?

    Awesome presentation Eric! 😊
    Mum and I both had the privilege of viewing this one 😁
    Something that jumped out at me while watching and following along in my bible was that, even if one were to accept the ludicrous notion that those congregants, elders and apostles in Jerusalem made up some kind of governing body, though they all belong to Christ they didn't all come together in peace and agree off the bat, what was right and true.
    In fact, satan had attempted to use "some men from Judea" in order to sow division amongst the body of Christ in that region.
    "..but after quite a bit of dissention and disputing by Paul and Barnabas with them (the men from Judea)..."
    So we see when that leven came to Antioch, our Lord Jesus appointed Paul and Barnabas to speak the truth and to take this matter back to its source in Jerusalem.
    After they arrived, although they had gathered in the peace and love afforded to us all by God and his son, satan once again attempted to introduce leven to the unleavened body of Christ by persuading ex-pharisees to say, "It is necessary to circumcize them and command them to observe the law of Moses."
    This is a lie.
    Once again, this issue arose from disagreement. Not from the collective agreement of our brothers in the first instance, but from the disagreement which is a fruit of satan and his lies, his leven.
    Again, Christ Jesus our redeemer, appoints Peter alone to speak the truth to all those congregated there, to defeat satans lie with the truth and to cause a distinction, if any, between those that would accept and cling to the leven and those who would refuse it completely.
    Peter said, "God made no distinction at all between Jews and Gentiles in Christ, but he purified their hearts by faith. So why are you making a test of God by imposing on the neck of Jesus disciples, a yoke that neither our forefathers, nor we were capable of bearing?"
    "...at that the entire group became silent..."
    Jesus combated the leven and defeated it by feeding his sheep truth via Peter, and then the entire group listened to Paul and Barnabas, which our Lord had sent to Jerusalem to resolve this issue.
    When they had finished speaking, James replied by God's holy spirit, and then the whole congregation came to a uninamous decision.
    And ever since that day, the followers of Christ have understood that we are not to press the law of moses upon anyone.
    This leven still exists brothers and sisters, so feed on Gods truth!
    May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you Eric, and all the holy ones.
    Your fellow servant in Christ,
    Obadiah

    I came across the WT article entitled “Tell Us, When Will These Things Be” about the appointment of the Faithful and Discreet Slave in the July 2013 WT Study Edition stating a new understanding in Paragraph 19 of the first study article stating, “Then, we reviewed why Jesus’ judgment of the sheep and the goats did not begin in 1914 but will occur during the great tribulation. “Finally, we examined why Jesus’ arrival to appoint the faithful slave over all his belongings did not occur in 1919 but will take place during the great tribulation” but yet they are still teaching that they are the Channel God is using today to guide his people instead of the Holy Spirit! You Can’t have it both ways! So clearly if they were not appointed in 1919 doesn’t everything else about 1914 just fall apart ? 🤔

    • @MR-gx3gc
      @MR-gx3gc 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      You have indeed recognized the crucial aspect.
      The statement of Jesus in his speech can only be understood as a parable, according to which all his followers are to prove themselves faithful and discreet until his coming, for the following reasons. (Luke 12:35-48)
      1.) The entire discourse revolves around the theme of his future coming as the Son of man, and not on the appointment of a faithful slave before his coming. (Luke 12:35; 40:43)
      2.) Jehovah's Witnesses are not aware that this specific teaching of the Watchtower Society de facto corresponds to the doctrine of the Catholic Church, according to which God is said to have appointed the respective bishop of Rome as the Vicar of Christ on earth.

      3.) If God had indeed already appointed a "faithful slave," which is not the case, the question arises as to what gives the appointed slave the legitimacy to claim for himself the title of a "leading" or even "ruling" class within the brotherhood. (Matthew 23:10)
      According to his own predictions, will Jesus appoint a "faithful slave" or a "leader"?
      4.) In his same speech, Jesus mentioned another parable of the Lord and his 3 servants. In this parable, after the coming of the Lord, two faithful slaves will be appointed over his belongings? (Matthew 25:14-30)
      If the first of the "faithful" servants named in the parable is supposed to represent the Governing Body of the Watchtower Society, the question inevitably arises as to who symbolizes the second "faithful" servant in the parable. (Matthew 25:21-23)
      5.) Now to the all-important aspect.
      Before his ascension, Jesus promised, that when he returned, he would appoint all his followers over all his possessions, and not just some of his faithful slaves. (Luke 12:43, 44).
      In this respect, this statement of Jesus can refer not only to individual of his followers, but to the totality of his followers, whom he will unite with himself at his return. (John 14:2-3, 1 Thessalonians 4:14-18, 2 Thessalonians 2:1-3).

      Your quote of the WT 2013 states that there was two appointments, firstly in 1914-1919 to feed the domestics, then second appointment during the tribulation to come to give them “all of his belongings after the go to heaven”. The scripture doesn’t state two appointments! They’ve made that up

    Playtime 14:28. The governing body's reasoning is downright grotesque, for what organization are the apostles supposed to have founded in the 1st century?
    Jesus did not establish an organization on Pentecost in Jerusalem, but an EKKLESIA with the assurance that this EKKLESIA will not pass away until Jesus comes again one day. (Matthew 16:18, Matthew 24:30).
    And this EKKLESIA, consisting of individual members of the body of Christ, has existed according to the promise of Jesus for two thousand years and not only since the beginning of the twentieth century. (Ephesians 4:11-16, Matthew 28:19-20).

    Great point about how God gave gifts of the spirit manifest in many ways, to men and women all across the spectrum of the early Christian congregations! " "gifts of knowedge" tongues, prophesying, (likely interpreting prophecy) , And 1 Corinth. 14 repeatedly stresses that the "entire congregation"; "all of you should prophesy clearly and translate if others were of a different language group! They didn't get their knowledge and gifts of prophecy interpretation and healings from a group of men in Jerusalem only! The holy spirit active on them did just fine! Thanks Eric!

    Rud Persson: Excellent refutation, Eric. If there always was a "God´s organization" to belong to, there would have to be one also just before C.T. Russell entered the stage, and then he and his supporters would have been obliged to join that organization instead of starting a new one! And what "God´s organization" would that be? And if there was no such organization in the latter part of the 19th century, it must have been all right to be Christians without belonging to a "God´s organization." For Jesus promised his disciples to be with them always, even to the end of the age.
