The WTS, a swindler

Hi, all

I'm writing about people like JWs who are ruled from tip to toe.

When a person studies with JWs, the one will learn basic bible truth, along with the WTS' interpretation and organizational policies and rules.

The latter is unnecessary, but in time it will become main concern.

When you attend the meeting or the assembly provided by the WTS, you will experience the order produced by the WTS. It will be impressive and comfortable. As you are regularly attending their meetings, before long you will find that everything is carried on by the direction of the WTS. The outlines of the public talk and the study articles are all prepared by the WTS, and JWs' way of living is all regulated by the WTS.

In their study materials, the reasoning and the scriptures are used to establish the WTS' intentions and purposes. JWs are expected to make a comment going along with the WTS' will. Different view of the expressed will of the WTS is not welcomed, even if you feel that the WTS' view has flaws.

They want you to have faith in the WTS.

They want you to believe in the following.

1. The WTS is the only God's organization on earth.
2. No one can get the accurate understanding of the truth unless through the WTS.
3. To obey the direction of the WTS means to obey God and Christ.

And JWs say that the WTS is not perfect, but it is God vessel, since God can't help using imperfect human at present time.

In order to build that conviction in the WTS, they prepare study materials and arrange and organize meetings and assemblies, and direct people by their representatives like elders so that people live according to their policies and rules of conducts fully convinced of the organization.

Above all three bases of the faith in the WTS are just only their claim without biblical bases.
But, the Bible exposes the falsehood of their claim.

Does God have organization on earth today?

Let's consider the first claim that The WTS is the only God's organization on earth.

Many church organizations starting from the Catholic have been claiming the same. But the Bible tells us that God discontinued using earthly organization along with the termination of the Law Covenant with earthly nation of Israel. Since then, there is no such an earthly organization of God. All Christians are placed under Christ's kingdom. And his kingdom is no part of the world. Those who believe in Christ belong to the heavenly arrangement in other words organization, no longer belong to earthly organizations. And the sons of the kingdom who belong to the heaven are not in the particular religious organization on earth, but they are among the weeds.

People who say that their organization on earth represents the heavenly kingdom are just saying so without biblical ground, so they can't prove their advocacy.

Joh 4:21-24
21 Jesus said to her: "Believe me, woman, The hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will YOU people worship the Father. 22 YOU worship what YOU do not know; we worship what we know, because salvation originates with the Jews. 23 Nevertheless, the hour is coming, and it is now, when the true worshipers will worship the Father with spirit and truth, for, indeed, the Father is looking for suchlike ones to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit, and those worshiping him must worship with spirit and truth."

Mt 21:18-19
18 While returning to the city early in the morning, he got hungry. 19 And he caught sight of a fig tree by the road and went to it, but he found nothing on it except leaves only, and he said to it: "Let no fruit come from you anymore forever." And the fig tree withered instantly.

Since it is impossible for the earthly arrangement to produce the desirable fruits in the eyes of God, it was discontinued along with Judaism.

Mt 23:38
38 Look! YOUR house is abandoned to YOU.

Christianity does not have the organization on earth.
Christian congregation belongs to the heaven, and the sons of the kingdom have been playing an active part of that heavenly kingdom awaiting Christ's return from heaven for many centuries. Christ's coming back from heaven is visible and recognizable worldwide, unlike the WTS' interpretation of the invisible Parousia or presence.

The time when the Christ will come back will be the time to judge and to end the Satan's world, and to give heavenly reward to the sons of the kingdom who belong to the heaven.

The WTS' doctrine of Christ's invisible presence from1914 onward is a false story contrived artfully.

Actually, Christ's return is a visible spectacular event of heavenly armies.
James, John, and Peter were invited to be eyewitnesses of this heavenly event in advance when they were with Christ in the mountain.

At that moment, Jesus configured himself into heavenly angelic being in front of their eyes.
In this manner Christ will return with myriad of heavenly armies.
Then, all will see the event.

Mt 16:28-17:9
28 Truly I say to YOU that there are some of those standing here that will not taste death at all until first they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom."

17:1 Six days later Jesus took Peter and James and John his brother along and brought them up into a lofty mountain by themselves. 2 And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone as the sun, and his outer garments became brilliant as the light. 3 And, look! there appeared to them Moses and E·li′jah, conversing with him. 4 Responsively Peter said to Jesus: "Lord, it is fine for us to be here. If you wish, I will erect three tents here, one for you and one for Moses and one for E·li′jah." 5 While he was yet speaking, look! a bright cloud overshadowed them, and, look! a voice out of the cloud, saying: "This is my Son, the beloved, whom I have approved; listen to him." 6 At hearing this the disciples fell upon their faces and became very much afraid. 7 Then Jesus came near and, touching them, said: "Get up and have no fear." 8 When they raised their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus himself only. 9 And as they were descending from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying: "Tell the vision to no one until the Son of man is raised up from the dead."

2Pe 1:16-18
16 No, it was not by following artfully contrived false stories that we acquainted YOU with the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but it was by having become eyewitnesses of his magnificence. 17 For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when words such as these were borne to him by the magnificent glory: "This is my son, my beloved, whom I myself have approved." 18 Yes, these words we heard borne from heaven while we were with him in the holy mountain.

Jesus' coming back will be an awesome event indeed.

The WTS, the swindler only can deceive people with their false story of invisible presence until the Christ's actual coming back with awesome heavenly armies.

Joh 14:1-3
1 "Do not let YOUR hearts be troubled. Exercise faith in God, exercise faith also in me. 2 In the house of my Father there are many abodes. Otherwise, I would have told YOU, because I am going my way to prepare a place for YOU. 3 Also, if I go my way and prepare a place for YOU, I am coming again and will receive YOU home to myself, that where I am YOU also may be.

Re 1:7
7 Look! He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, and those who pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth will beat themselves in grief because of him. Yes, Amen.

Mt 24:29-31
29 ". . . after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 30 And then the sign of the Son of man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will beat themselves in lamentation, and they will see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And he will send forth his angels with a great trumpet sound, and they will gather his chosen ones together from the four winds, from one extremity of the heavens to their other extremity.

Re 11:18
18 But the nations became wrathful, and your own wrath came, and the appointed time for the dead to be judged, and to give [their] reward to your slaves the prophets and to the holy ones and to those fearing your name, the small and the great, and to bring to ruin those ruining the earth."

The wheat are among the weeds until the harvest by the angels.
Both of them grow together.
And no one can tell which is which.
So the idea of God's sole organization on earth is unbiblical.

Mt 13:24-30, 37-43
24 Another illustration he set before them, saying: "The kingdom of the heavens has become like a man that sowed fine seed in his field. 25 While men were sleeping, his enemy came and oversowed weeds in among the wheat, and left. 26 When the blade sprouted and produced fruit, then the weeds appeared also. 27 So the slaves of the householder came up and said to him, 'Master, did you not sow fine seed in your field? How, then, does it come to have weeds?' 28 He said to them, 'An enemy, a man, did this.' They said to him, 'Do you want us, then, to go out and collect them?' 29 He said, 'No; that by no chance, while collecting the weeds, YOU uproot the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest; and in the harvest season I will tell the reapers, First collect the weeds and bind them in bundles to burn them up, then go to gathering the wheat into my storehouse.'"

37 In response he said: "The sower of the fine seed is the Son of man; 38 the field is the world; as for the fine seed, these are the sons of the kingdom; but the weeds are the sons of the wicked one, 39 and the enemy that sowed them is the Devil. The harvest is a conclusion of a system of things, and the reapers are angels. 40 Therefore, just as the weeds are collected and burned with fire, so it will be in the conclusion of the system of things. 41 The Son of man will send forth his angels, and they will collect out from his kingdom all things that cause stumbling and persons who are doing lawlessness, 42 and they will pitch them into the fiery furnace. There is where [their] weeping and the gnashing of [their] teeth will be. 43 At that time the righteous ones will shine as brightly as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Let him that has ears listen.

Is it true that nobody can get correct understanding of the Bible unless though the WTS?

This idea is frequently used by those who want to control others with the Bible.

But this can not be biblical.

Jesus says that his sheep know his voice.
In fact, the sons of the kingdom will voluntarily follow the voice of Christ without any order or direction by somebody.

In addition to that, Jesus promised to send a helper to teach and direct the sons of the kingdom.
He told his disciples that the spirit of the truth will guide them into all the truth.
But this promised spirit of the truth is not only for select few disciples, but for everybody.

So anyone who claims that the accurate understanding of the Bible is only through themselves is in fact depriving Christ and the holy spirit of the God given authority to teach and to guide the sons of the kingdom.

The voice of Christ

Joh 10:14, 16, 27
14 I am the fine shepherd, and I know my sheep and my sheep know me,
16 "And I have other sheep, which are not of this fold; those also I must bring, and they will listen to my voice, and they will become one flock, one shepherd.
27 My sheep listen to my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.

Joh 18:37
37 Therefore Pilate said to him: "Well, then, are you a king?" Jesus answered: "You yourself are saying that I am a king. For this I have been born, and for this I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone that is on the side of the truth listens to my voice."

The spirit of the Truth

Joh 14:15-18
15 "If YOU love me, YOU will observe my commandments; 16 and I will request the Father and he will give YOU another helper to be with YOU forever, 17 the spirit of the truth, which the world cannot receive, because it neither beholds it nor knows it. YOU know it, because it remains with YOU and is in YOU. 18 I shall not leave YOU bereaved. I am coming to YOU.

Joh 16:13
13 However, when that one arrives, the spirit of the truth, he will guide YOU into all the truth, for he will not speak of his own impulse, but what things he hears he will speak, and he will declare to YOU the things coming.

1Joh 2:27
27 And as for YOU, the anointing that YOU received from him remains in YOU, and YOU do not need anyone to be teaching YOU; but, as the anointing from him is teaching YOU about all things, and is true and is no lie, and just as it has taught YOU, remain in union with him.

In any age, the sons of the kingdom were taught and guided by the voice of Christ in the Bible and the spirit of the truth sent by Christ, as Jesus stressed saying that the Christ is the leader, and they are all brothers. Earthly visible representative of Christ is unnecessary, since Christ live forever in heaven, and the sons of the kingdom are placed under this heavenly oversight and protection of their Lord in heaven.

Mt 23:8-10
8 But YOU, do not YOU be called Rabbi, for one is YOUR teacher, whereas all YOU are brothers. 9 Moreover, do not call anyone YOUR father on earth, for one is YOUR Father, the heavenly One. 10 Neither be called 'leaders,' for YOUR Leader is one, the Christ.

Who is it that dare to say that only through us, people can correctly understand the Bible.
By saying that they push Christ aside so as to rule over others by their imaginary authority.

So the WTS can not justify their self appointed faithful discreet slave who has the authority over others.
They are the notorious religious swindler who uses the Bible to deceive religious people to become slavery to them.

They are always saying that the WTS is the spirit directed organization, the divine education is only from the WTS.
But this is a lie.

Anybody can receive the divine education though the Bible.
And the Bible is not for the select few, but as it is obvious for everybody.

It is the Bible itself that unite the sons of the kingdom who don't have any visible governing agency on earth. Anybody who reads and loves the Bible truth and lives according to the voice of Christ will reach the unity in faith, as it is said that Jesus' sheep know the voice of Christ and they will follow Him, so that they will be one flock. And the sheep of Christ are not dependent on others in discerning the voice the Christ.

Disunity is only among those who disobey the voice of Christ.

Those who are taught by the voice of Christ and the spirit of the truth are all united by the same understanding of the kingdom and by the same rule of conducts as the seed of Abraham. They are walking by faith not by sight, being no part of the world, nor having any visible structure and agency on earth just as their Lord was when he was on earth.

They are things in the heavens like Jesus.
They belong to heaven.

Is it true that obeying the policies and directions of the WTS is to obey God and Christ?

God no longer has earthly organization since the reality came into existence in heaven by Christ. So, any man-made religious organization on earth is not God's vessel, but Satan's.

The Revelation's account depicts such religious organization as a harlot called the Babylon the Great who sat down on the scarlet colored wild beast. The WTS is also receiving the benefit provided by the political wild beast like other Church systems. So the WTS is also a part of the deceptive Babylon the Great.

Let's think of the point that obeying man-made religious organization does not mean obeying God and Christ.

Obeying the truth despite of the wrong teaching of religious organization means obeying God and Christ.
But blindly obeying the wrong teaching of the religious organization does not mean obeying God and Christ.

It is not sound reasoning that God can't help but uses imperfect organization since there is no perfect human at present, and even if the WTS made mistake or went wrong in teaching or in direction, God still uses them as his vessel, so obeying them means trusting God who uses the WTS to guide his people.

If you reason that way, you are actually saying that God guide his people by mistake or lie.
Are you going to make God responsible for damages some might receives due to the WTS' mistake or lie.

Obeying lie or mistake doesn't mean to obey God and Christ.
So no one can say that I'm obeying God because I'm obeying the imperfect God's organization.

It is not obeying God to obey mistake or lie created by imperfect men or organization.

Of course we should pass by others' mistake or imperfection, but we should not blindly accept or follow the wrongdoing, or lie.

The falsehood and the wrongdoing should be corrected, not to be tolerated by false reasoning.
Those who obey God and Christ will raise their voice against anyone for the sake of truth and justice.

Jesus and his disciples were exposing and condemning the hypocrisies of Jewish religious system which was still regarded as God's organization.

Apostle Paul condemned Peter for his hypocritical behavior although he didn't reject him because Peter accepted his correction.

The Bible does not teach us to tolerate lie, hypocrisy, and the wrongdoing.

Rather, anybody who is wrongdoer, or teacher of lie which misrepresents God and his truth must be condemned. The sons of the kingdom are doing so because of obeying God and Christ.

It is not obeying God and Christ that blindly obey a self-clamed religious organization.

The sons of the kingdom will expose and condemn the hypocrisies and wrong teaching of the religious organization, for the benefit of captives.

Christ's condemnation upon Jewish religious leaders

The same things can also be applied to the WTS' leaders.

Mt 23:1-28
1 Then Jesus spoke to the crowds and to his disciples, saying: 2 "The scribes and the Pharisees have seated themselves in the seat of Moses. 3 Therefore all the things they tell YOU, do and observe, but do not do according to their deeds, for they say but do not perform.

Jesus does not recommend us to blindly obey religious leaders.
If the things that the religious leaders tell us are the truth in the Bible, obeying those who are teaching the truth is regarded to obey God and Christ, since those truth belong to God and Christ.

But we should not go along with their hypocrisies.
Lie and wrong teaching should be corrected or be condemned so as to always obey the truth from God and Christ.

4 They bind up heavy loads and put them upon the shoulders of men, but they themselves are not willing to budge them with their finger. 5 All the works they do they do to be viewed by men; for they broaden the [scripture-containing] cases that they wear as safeguards, and enlarge the fringes [of their garments]. 6 They like the most prominent place at evening meals and the front seats in the synagogues, 7 and the greetings in the marketplaces and to be called Rabbi by men. 8 But YOU, do not YOU be called Rabbi, for one is YOUR teacher, whereas all YOU are brothers. 9 Moreover, do not call anyone YOUR father on earth, for one is YOUR Father, the heavenly One. 10 Neither be called 'leaders,' for YOUR Leader is one, the Christ. 11 But the greatest one among YOU must be YOUR minister. 12 Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.

13 "Woe to YOU, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because YOU shut up the kingdom of the heavens before men; for YOU yourselves do not go in, neither do YOU permit those on their way in to go in. 14 -- 15 "Woe to YOU, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because YOU traverse sea and dry land to make one proselyte, and when he becomes one YOU make him a subject for Ge·hen′na twice as much so as yourselves.
16 "Woe to YOU, blind guides, who say, 'If anyone swears by the temple, it is nothing; but if anyone swears by the gold of the temple, he is under obligation.' 17 Fools and blind ones! Which, in fact, is greater, the gold or the temple that has sanctified the gold? 18 Also, 'If anyone swears by the altar, it is nothing; but if anyone swears by the gift on it, he is under obligation.' 19 Blind ones! Which, in fact, is greater, the gift or the altar that sanctifies the gift? 20 Therefore he that swears by the altar is swearing by it and by all the things on it; 21 and he that swears by the temple is swearing by it and by him that is inhabiting it; 22 and he that swears by heaven is swearing by the throne of God and by him that is sitting on it.

23 "Woe to YOU, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because YOU give the tenth of the mint and the dill and the cumin, but YOU have disregarded the weightier matters of the Law, namely, justice and mercy and faithfulness. These things it was binding to do, yet not to disregard the other things. 24 Blind guides, who strain out the gnat but gulp down the camel! 25 "Woe to YOU, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because YOU cleanse the outside of the cup and of the dish, but inside they are full of plunder and immoderateness. 26 Blind Pharisee, cleanse first the inside of the cup and of the dish, that the outside of it also may become clean. 27 "Woe to YOU, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because YOU resemble whitewashed graves, which outwardly indeed appear beautiful but inside are full of dead men's bones and of every sort of uncleanness. 28 In that way YOU also, outwardly indeed, appear righteous to men, but inside YOU are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.

Joh 7:7
7 The world has no reason to hate YOU, but it hates me, because I bear witness concerning it that its works are wicked.

The apostle Paul didn't go along with the falsehood of others.

Each individual Christian also does not need to sacrifice the truth so as to please someone.

Ga 2:11-14, 5-6
11 However, when Ce′phas came to Antioch, I resisted him face to face, because he stood condemned. 12 For before the arrival of certain men from James, he used to eat with people of the nations; but when they arrived, he went withdrawing and separating himself, in fear of those of the circumcised class. 13 The rest of the Jews also joined him in putting on this pretense, so that even Bar′na·bas was led along with them in their pretense. 14 But when I saw they were not walking straight according to the truth of the good news, I said to Ce′phas before them all: "If you, though you are a Jew, live as the nations do, and not as Jews do, how is it that you are compelling people of the nations to live according to Jewish practice?"

5 to these we did not yield by way of submission, no, not for an hour, in order that the truth of the good news might continue with YOU. 6 But on the part of those who seemed to be something-whatever sort of men they formerly were makes no difference to me-God does not go by a man's outward appearance-to me, in fact, those outstanding men imparted nothing new.

People who obey God and Christ won't blindly follow men or organization.

Ac 4:19
19 But in reply Peter and John said to them: "Whether it is righteous in the sight of God to listen to YOU rather than to God, judge for yourselves.

Conclusion

The unmistakable conclusion from the Bible is as follows

God no longer has earthly organization.
Sheep are to follow Christ because they know the voice of Christ.
They don't need religious leaders nor agency to guide them.
It is the spirit of truth sent by Christ that teach the sons of the kingdom.
All of the sons of the kingdom are brothers, Christ is the teacher and the leader.
To obey God and Christ means to always follow the truth in the Bible regardless of hypocrisies and false teaching of any man or of any religious organization.

The WTS is a man's enterprise using name of Christ like other Church systems in the Christendom.
They all are notorious swindlers because they appointed themselves to be God's agency on earth.

Re 18:4-5
4 And I heard another voice out of heaven say: "Get out of her, my people, if YOU do not want to share with her in her sins, and if YOU do not want to receive part of her plagues. 5 For her sins have massed together clear up to heaven, and God has called her acts of injustice to mind.
