Part 2: Does it Grieve God’s Spirit When We Reject Our Heavenly Hope for an Earthly Paradise?
In our previous video titled “Does it Grieve God’s Spirit When We Reject Our Heavenly Hope for an Earthly Paradise? We asked the question about whether one could really have an earthly hope on paradise earth as a righteous Christian? We showed, with the use of...The Lord’s Supper: Remembering Jesus The Way He Wanted Us To!
The Lord’s Evening Meal: Remembering our Lord as He Wanted Us To! My sister who lives in Florida hasn’t been going to meetings at the Kingdom hall for over five years. In all that time, no one from her former congregation has visited her to check up on her, to...Does it Grieve God’s Spirit When We Reject Our Heavenly Hope for an Earthly Paradise?
You might be wondering about the Title of this video: Does it Grieve God’s Spirit When We Reject Our Heavenly Hope for an Earthly Paradise? Maybe that seems a little harsh, or a little judgmental. Bear in mind that it is meant especially for my ex JW friends who,...How Can We Be Saved by Going Through the Flames?
Jesus told his disciples that he would send the spirit and the spirit would guide them into all the truth. John 16:13 Well, when I was a Jehovah’s Witness, it wasn’t the spirit that guided me but the Watch Tower corporation. As a consequence, I got taught a lot of...A Judicial Committee Accuses Maciej W. of Apostasy for Spreading Truth on Social Media
The Trinity: Given by God or Sourced by Satan?
Each time I’ve released a video on the Trinity – this will be the fourth one – I get people commenting that I don’t really understand the Trinity doctrine. They are right. I don’t understand it. But here’s the thing: Each time someone has said that to me, I’ve asked...Geoffrey Jackson Invalidates the 1914 Presence of Christ
In my last video, “Geoffrey Jackson’s New Light Blocks Entry into God’s Kingdom” I analyzed the talk presented by Governing Body member, Geoffrey Jackson, in the 2021 annual meeting of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society. Jackson was releasing “new light” on the...Geoffrey Jackson’s New Light Blocks Entry into God’s Kingdom
Within hours of the closing of the 2021 Annual Meeting of the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society, a kind viewer forwarded me the entire recording. I know other YouTube channels got the same recording and produced exhaustive reviews of the meeting, which I’m sure many...Saving Humanity Part 6: Understanding God’s Love
In the previous video of this series titled “Saving Humanity, Part 5: Can we Blame God for our Pain, Misery, and Suffering?” I said that we would begin our study concerning the salvation of humanity by going back to the beginning and working forward from there....What Does It Say About JW.org That It Rewrites History to Hide Its Past Failures?
In the October 2021 issue of The Watchtower, there is a final article titled “1921 One Hundred Years Ago”. It shows a picture of a book published in that year. Here it is. The Harp of God, by J. F. Rutherford. There is something wrong with this picture. Do you know...Jehovah’s Witnesses Say it is Wrong to Worship Jesus, but Are Happy to Worship Men
Click here to view video Hello, the title of this video is “Jehovah’s Witnesses Say it is wrong to Worship Jesus, but Are Happy to Worship Men”. I’m sure that I’m going to get comments from disgruntled Jehovah’s Witnesses accusing me of misrepresenting them. They will...Is There Proof That the Holy Spirit has Left JW.org?
I don’t have time to comment on all the mistakes the Watchtower Society makes in its publications, but every now and then something catches my eye and I cannot, in good conscience, overlook it. People are trapped in this organization believing that it is God who...Learning From the Travesty of My Own Judicial Committee Appeal
The purpose of this video is to provide a little bit of information to assist those who are seeking to leave the organization of Jehovah’s Witnesses.

This is video number five in our series, “Saving Humanity.” Up to this point, we have demonstrated that there are two ways of viewing life and death. There is “alive” or “dead” as we believers see it, and, of course, this is the only view that atheists have. ...JW News: Misleading Jehovah’s Witnesses, Stephen Lett’s 2021 Convention Review
The 2021 Powerful by Faith! Regional Convention of Jehovah’s Witnesses concludes in the usual way, with a final talk that gives the audience a recap of the convention highlights. This year, Stephen Lett gave this review, and so, I felt it only right to do a little...JW News: Why Does the Governing Body Continue to Deny that They Are Demanding Monthly Pledges?
In a recent video, which I’ll reference above as well as in the description field of this video, we were able to show how the Organization of Jehovah’s Witnesses has come to a crossroads with its donation arrangement, and sadly, taken the wrong path. Why do we claim...Saving Humanity, Part 4: With What Kind of Body Will the Children of God Be Resurrected?
Since I started doing these videos, I’ve been getting all kinds of questions about the Bible. I’ve noticed that some questions get asked over and over, particularly those relating to the resurrection of the dead. Witnesses leaving the Organization want to know about...Is the Governing Body of Jehovah’s Witnesses Like the Rebel Korah Who Tried to Replace Moses?
Jehovah’s Witnesses have a pat way of dismissing anyone who disagrees with them. They employ a “poisoning the well” ad hominem attack, claiming the person is like Korah who rebelled against Moses, God channel of communication with the Israelites. They have been...The Governing Body’s New Donation Arrangement Proves Jehovah is not Backing the Organization of Jehovah’s Witnesses
This September 2021, the congregations of Jehovah’s Witnesses around the world are going to be presented with a resolution, an appeal for money. This is huge, though I daresay the true significance of this event will go unnoticed by many Jehovah’s Witnesses. The...The Governing Body of Jehovah’s Witnesses Makes a Pathetic Attempt to Deal with Bad Media Reports
[Eric Wilson] In the Saturday afternoon session of the 2021 “Powerful by Faith!” annual convention of Jehovah’s Witnesses, Governing Body member, David Splane, delivered a talk which is so outrageous that it fairly screams for a commentary. This talk demonstrates...Saving Humanity, Part 3: Does God Bring People to Life Only to Destroy Them?
In the previous video, in this “Saving Humanity” series, I promised you we would discuss a very controversial parenthetical passage found in the book of Revelation: “(The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended.)” – Revelation 20:5a...Saving Humanity, Part 2: Life and Death, Your View or God’s?
Jehovah God created life. He also created death. Now, if I want to know what life is, what life represents, does it not make sense to go first to the one who created it? The same can be said for death. If I want to know what death is, what it consists of, would not...Are Jehovah’s Witnesses in Spain actually trying to victimize those who already feel like victims?
There is a David versus Goliath showdown set to play out in Spain. It seems that the Spanish branch of the multi-billion-dollar corporation that is the watchtower Bible and tract society is trying to shut down the recently formed Association called “Asociación...What Does It Mean to Be “Born Again”?
When I was a Jehovah’s Witness, I engaged in preaching from door-to-door. On many occasions I encountered Evangelicals who would challenge me with the question, “Are you born again?” Now to be fair, as a witness I really didn’t understand what it meant to be born...Jehovah’s Witnesses Violate the U.S. Constitution by their Shunning Practices
The murder trial of ex-police officer Derek Chauvin in the death of George Floyd was televised. In the state of Minnesota, it is lawful to televise trials if all parties agree. However, in this case the prosecution did not want the trial televised, but the judge...Saving Humanity, Part 1: 2 Deaths, 2 Lifes, 2 Resurrections
A few weeks ago, I got the results of a CAT scan in which it was revealed that the aortic valve in my heart has created a dangerous aneurysm. Four years ago, and only six weeks after my wife passed away from cancer, I had open-heart surgery—specifically, a Bentall...Mercy Triumphs Over Judgment
In our last video, we studied how our salvation depends on our willingness not only to repent of our sins but also on our readiness to forgive others who repent of the wrongs they have committed against us. In this video, we are going to learn about one additional...Do We Have to Forgive Everybody to Be Saved?
We have all been hurt by someone in our life. The hurt may be so severe, the betrayal so devastating, that we can never imagine being able to forgive that person. This can pose a problem for true Christians because we are supposed to forgive one another freely from...Bible Musings: Is Truth Important?
I want to read you something that Jesus said. This is from the New Living Translation of Matthew 7:22, 23. “On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ But I...The Existence of the Logos Disproves the Trinity
In my last video on the Trinity, we examined the role of Holy Spirit and determined that whatever it actually is, it is not a person, and so could not be the third leg in our three-legged Trinity stool. I got a lot of staunch defenders of the Trinity doctrine...Should I Get Re-Baptized? Examining How Jehovah’s Witnesses Have Invalidated Baptism
Since my recent video inviting all baptized Christians to share the Lord’s evening meal with us, there has been a lot of activity in the comment sections of the English and Spanish YouTube channels questioning the whole issue of baptism. For many, the question is...Where are we going in 2021? Memorial and Meetings, Money, Truth and Publishing
Today we’re going to talk about the memorial and the future of our work. In my last video, I made an open invitation to all baptized Christians to attend our online memorial of Christ’s death on the 27th of this month. This caused a bit of a stir in the commenting...Join us for the 2021 Memorial of Christ’s Death
https://youtu.be/ya5cXmL7cII On March 27 of this year, we will be commemorating the memorial of the death of Jesus Christ online using Zoom technology. At the end of this video, I will be sharing the details of how and when you can join us online. I have also put...Examining the Trinity, Part 2: The Holy Spirit Is Not a Force, Nor a Person.
Let’s say that a man were to approach you on the street and tell you, “I’m a Christian, but I don’t believe Jesus is the Son of God.” What would you think? You probably be wondering if the man had lost his mind. How can you anyone call themselves a Christian, while...Are Jehovah’s Witnesses Blood Guilty Because They Ban Blood Transfusions?
Countless young children, not to mention adults, have been sacrificed on the altar of the highly criticized “No Blood Doctrine” of Jehovah’s Witnesses. Are Jehovah’s Witnesses being wrongly maligned for faithfully adhering to God’s command regarding the misuse of blood, or are they guilty of creating a requirement that God never intended us to follow? This video will attempt to show from scripture which of these two alternatives is true.
Examining Socinianism: The Belief that Jesus Did Not Exist Before His Birth as a Human.
The religious leaders of Israel were the enemies of Jesus. These were men who considered themselves to be wise and intellectual. They were the most learned, well educated men of the nation and looked down on the general populous as uneducated peasants. Oddly...How Did the Bible Come to Us, and Is It Truly the Word of God?
Eric Wilson: Welcome. There are many who after leaving the organization of Jehovah’s Witnesses lose all faith in God and doubt that the Bible contains his word to guide us to life. This is so sad because the fact that men have misled us should not cause us to...Two elders meet with Shawn Burke to encourage him
Shawn has been baptized for six years, but is having issues with some of the teachings of the organization. In situations like this, are the elders interested in helping the sheep, or are they more interested in enforcing compliance?
The Role of Women in the Christian Congregation (Part 6): Headship! It’s not what you think it is.
Research into the Greek of Paul’s day indicates that the famous verse of 1 Corinthians 11:3 about headship has been incorrectly translated resulting in untold suffering for both men and women.
The Role of Women in the Christian Congregation (Part 5): Does Paul Teach Women are Inferior to Men?
In this video, we are going to examine Paul’s instructions regarding the role of women in a letter written to Timothy while he was serving in the congregation of Ephesus. However, before getting into that, we should review what we already know. In our previous video,...The Role of Women in the Christian Congregation (Part 4): Can Women Pray and Teach?
Paul appears to be telling us at 1 Corinthians 14:33, 34 that women are to be silent in congregation meetings and wait to get home to ask their husbands if they have any questions. This contradicts Paul’s earlier words at 1 Corinthians 11:5, 13 allowing women to both pray and prophecy in congregation meetings. How can we resolve this apparent contradiction in God’s word?
The Role of Women in the Christian Congregation (Part 3): Can a Women Be a Ministerial Servant?
Every religion has an ecclesiastical hierarchy of men who control doctrine and conduct. There is rarely a place for women. However, is the very idea of any ecclesiastical hierarchy unscriptural? This is the topic we will examine in part 3 of our series on the role of women in the Christian congregation.
The Role of Women in the Christian Congregation (Part 2) The Bible Record
Before we go making assumptions as to what role women can play in God’s Christian arrangement, we need to see how Jehovah God himself has used them in the past by examining the Bible account of various women of faith in both Israelite and Christian times.
Was Creation Accomplished in 144 Hours?
When I established this web site, its purpose was to gather research from diverse sources to try to determine what is true and what is false. Having been raised as a Jehovah’s Witness, I was taught that I was in the one true religion, the only religion that...The Role of Women in the Christian Congregation (Part 1): Introduction
The role within the body of Christ which women are to play has been misconstrued and misapplied by men for hundreds of years. It is time to put off all the preconceptions and bias that both sexes have been fed by the religious leaders of the various denominations of Christendom and pay heed to what God wants us to do. This video series will explore the role of women within the great purpose of God by allowing the Scriptures to speak for themselves while unmasking the many attempts men have made to twist their meaning as they fulfill God’s words at Genesis 3:16.
By Condeming “Despicable Apostates”, has the Governing Body Condemned Themselves?
Recently, the Organization of Jehovah’s Witnesses released a video in which one of their members condemns apostates and other “enemies”. The video was entitled: “Anthony Morris III: Jehovah Will “Carry It Out” (Isa. 46:11)” and can be found by following this link:
https://www.jw.org/finder?docid=1011214&item=pub-jwb_202009_11_VIDEO&wtlocale=E&appLanguage=E&prefer=content
Was he right to condemn those who oppose the teachings of Jehovah’s Witnesses in this way, or do the scriptures he uses to condemn others actually end up backfiring on the organization’s leadership?
The Judicial System of Jehovah’s Witnesses (Part 2): Shunning…is this what Jesus wanted?
Hello, my name is Eric Wilson. One of the practices which has resulted in an enormous amount of criticism of Jehovah’s Witnesses is their practice of shunning anyone who leaves their religion or who is expelled by the elders for what is considered by them to be...Kicking against the Goads
[The following is the text from my chapter (my story) in the recently published book Fear to Freedom available on Amazon.] Part 1: Freed from Indoctrination “Mommy, am I going to die at Armageddon?” I was only five years old when I asked my parents that question. Why...The Judicial System of Jehovah’s Witnesses: From God or Satan?
In an effort to keep the congregation clean, Jehovah’s Witnesses disfellowship (shun) all unrepentant sinners. They base this policy on the words of Jesus as well as the apostles Paul and John. Many characterize this policy as cruel. Are Witnesses being unjustly maligned for simply obeying the commands of God, or are they using scripture as an excuse to practice wickedness? Only by strictly following the Bible’s direction can they truly claim that they have God’s approval, otherwise, their works could identify them as “workers of lawlessness”. (Matthew 7:23)
Which is it? This video and the next will attempt to answer those questions definitively.
Media, Money, Meetings, and Me
Hello everyone and thanks for joining me. Today I wanted to talk on four topics: media, money, meetings and me. Beginning with media, I’m specifically referring to the publication of a new book called Fear to Freedom which was put together by a friend of mine, Jack...Examining the Trinity: Part 1, What does history teach us?
Eric: Hello, my name is Eric Wilson. The video you are about to see was recorded several weeks ago, but due to illness, I was not able to complete it until now. It will be the first of several videos analyzing the doctrine of the Trinity. I’m doing the video with Dr....Re-establishing the Christian Congregation: What Constitutes Honorable Marriage?
When we speak of re-establishing the Christian Congregation, we are not speaking of setting up a new religion. Quite the contrary. We are speaking about returning to the form of worship that existed in the first century—a form largely unknown in this day and age. ...What is your Thorn in the Flesh?
I was just reading 2 Corinthians where Paul talks about being afflicted with a thorn in the flesh. Do you remember that part? As a Jehovah’s Witness, I was taught that he was likely referring to his bad eyesight. I never liked that interpretation. It just seemed...Conspiracy Theories and the Great Trickster
Hello everyone. I’ve been getting emails and comments asking what has happened to the videos. Well, the answer is quite simple. I’ve been sick, so production has fallen off. I’m better now. Don’t worry. It wasn’t COVID-19, just a case of Shingles. Apparently, I had...Is the Shunning Policy practiced by Jehovah’s Witnesses their version of the Hellfire Doctrine?
How the “Shunning” practiced by Jehovah’s Witnesses compares to the Hellfire doctrine. Years ago, when I was a full-fledged Jehovah’s Witness, serving as an elder, I met a fellow witness who had been a Muslim in Iran before converting. This was the first time I had...The Branch Response to the Letter from Felix’s Wife
This is my review of the letter from the Argentina Branch in response to the registered letters sent them by Felix and his wife.
My Awakening after 30 Years of Deception, Part 3: Achieving Freedom for Myself and My Wife
Introduction: Felix’s wife discovers for herself that the elders are not the “loving shepherds” that they and the organization proclaim them to be. She finds herself involved in a sexual abuse case in which the offender is appointed a ministerial servant despite the accusation, and it is discovered that he had abused more young girls.
The congregation receives the “preventive order” via text message to stay away from Felix and his wife just before the “The Love Never Fails” regional convention. All these situations lead to a fight that the branch office of Jehovah’s Witnesses ignores, presuming its power, but which serves for both Felix and his wife to achieve freedom of conscience.
My Awakening after 30 years of deception, Part 2: Awakening
[Translated from Spanish by Vivi] By Felix of South America. (Names are changed to avoid retaliation.) Introduction: In Part I of the series, Felix from South America told us about how his parents learned about the Jehovah’s Witness movement and how his family...Examining Matthew 24, Part 13: The Parable of the Sheep and the Goats
Witness leadership use the Parable of the Sheep and the Goats to claim that the salvation of the “Other Sheep” depends on their obedience to the instructions of the Governing Body. They allege that this parable “proves” that there is a two-class system of salvation with 144,000 going to heaven, while the rest live as sinners on earth for the 1,000 years. Is that the true meaning of this parable or do Witnesses have it all wrong? Join us to examin the evidence and decide for yourself.
Examining Matthew 24, Part 12: The Faithful and Discreet Slave
Jehovah’s Witnesses contend that the men (currently 8) making up their governing body constitute a fulfillment of what they consider to be the prophecy of the faithful and discreet slave referred to at Matthew 24:45-47. Is this accurate or merely a self-serving interpretation? If the latter, then what or who is the faithful and discreet slave, and what of the other three slaves that Jesus refers to in Luke’s parallel account?
This video will attempt to answer all these questions using Scriptural context and reasoning.
Examining Matthew 24, Part 11: The Parables from the Mount of Olives
There are four parables that our Lord left us in his final discourse on the Mount of Olives. How do these relate to us today? How has the organization misapplied these parables and what harm has that done? We will begin our discussion with an explanation of the true nature of parables.

Examining Matthew 24, Part 10: The Sign of Christ’s Presence
Welcome back. This is part 10 of our exegetical analysis of Matthew 24. Up to this point, we have spent a lot of time cutting away all the false teachings and false prophetic interpretations that have done so much damage to the faith of millions of sincere and...
Examining Matthew 24, Part 9: Exposing the Jehovah’s Witnesses’ Generation Doctrine as False
For over 100 years, Jehovah’s Witnesses have been predicting that Armageddon is just around the corner, based largely on their interpretation of Matthew 24:34 which speaks of a “generation” that will see both the end and the beginning of the last days. The question is, are they getting it wrong about which last days Jesus was referring to? Is there a way to determine the answer from Scripture in a way that leaves no room for doubt. Indeed, there is as this video will demonstrate.

Examining Matthew 24, Part 8: Pulling the Linchpin from the 1914 Doctrine
As hard as it may be to believe, the entire foundation of the religion of Jehovah’s Witnesses is based on the interpretation of a single Bible verse. If the understanding they have of that verse can be shown to be wrong, their entire religious identity goes away. This video will examine that Bible verse and put the foundational doctrine of 1914 under a scriptural microscope.
Examining Matthew 24, Part 7: The Great Tribulation
Matthew 24:21 speaks of “great tribulation” to come upon Jerusalem which occurred during 66 to 70 C.E. Revelation 7:14 also speaks of “great tribulation”. Are these two events connected in some way? Or is the Bible speaking about two entirely different tribulations, totally unrelated to one another? This presentation will attempt to demonstrate what each scripture is referring to and how that understanding affects all Christians today.

Stephen Lett and the Sign of the Coronavirus
Okay, this definitely falls into the category of “Here we go again”. What am I talking about? Rather than tell you, let me show you. This excerpt is from a recent video from JW.org. And you can see from it, probably, what do I mean by “here we go again”. What I mean...Do Jehovah’s Witnesses have “a Disapproved Mental State”?
“Just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them over to a disapproved mental state, to do the things not fitting.” (Romans 1:28 NWT) It may seem like a bold statement even to suggest that the leadership of Jehovah’s Witnesses has been given over...
Examining Matthew 24, Part 6: Is Preterism Applicable to Last Days Prophecies?
A number of exJWs seem to be persuaded by the idea of Preterism, that all the prophecies in Revelation and Daniel, as well as those in Matthew 24 and 25 were fulfilled in the first century. Can we definitely prove otherwise? Are there any adverse effects resulting from a Preterist belief?
Is the Governing Body Knowingly Deceiving Us over 607 BCE? (Part 2)
In our first article, we examined the Adad-Guppi Stele, an historical document which quickly demolishes Watchtower’s theory of possible gaps in the established line of Neo-Babylonian Kings. For the next piece of primary evidence, we will look at the planet...
Have Jehovah’s Witnesses Reached the Tipping Point?
While the 2019 Service Report seems to indicate that there is on-going growth in the Organization of Jehovah’s Witnesses, there is shocking news out of Canada to indicate that the figures have been cooked and in fact the organization is shrinking far faster than anyone had imagined.

Jehovah’s Witnesses and Child Sexual Abuse: Why Is the Two-Witness Rule a Red Herring?
Hello, I’m Meleti Vivlon. Those who protest the horrendous mishandling of child sexual abuse among the leadership of Jehovah’s Witnesses frequently harp on the two-witness rule. They want it gone. So why am I calling the two-witness rule, a red herring? Am I...
Cam’s Story

Bible Musings: Are we missing the point?
In response to the last video—Part 5—in the Matthew 24 series, one of the regular viewers sent me an email asking about how two seemingly related passages can be understood. Some would call these problematic passages. Bible scholars referred to them by the Latin...

The disciples wanted...Is the Governing Body Knowingly Deceiving Us over 607 B.C.E.? (Part 1)
When the Governing Body of Jehovah’s Witnesses gets something wrong and has to make a correction which is usually introduced to the community as “new light” or “refinements in our understanding”, the excuse frequently echoed to justify...
Who are the 24 Elders of Revelation 4:4?
This article was submitted by Stephanos The identity of the 24 elders in the book of Revelation has been a subject of discussion for a long time. Several theories have been raised. Since nowhere in the Bible is a clear definition of this group of persons given, it’s...
Does a Woman Praying in the Congregation Violate Headship?
[This is a continuation of the topic on the Role of Women in the Congregation.] This article began as a comment in response to Eleasar’s thought-provoking, well-researched comment on the meaning of kephalē in 1 Corinthians 11:3. “But I want you to understand...

Ina discusses coping with her new life after Jehovah’s Witnesses.
Examining Matthew 24; Part 3: Preaching in All the Inhabited Earth
Was Matthew 24:14 given to us as a means to measure how close we are to the return of Jesus? Does it speak of a worldwide preaching work to warn all humanity of their looming doom and eternal destruction? Witnesses believe they alone have this commission and that their preaching work is life saving? Is that the case, or are they actually working against God’s purpose. This video will endeavour to answer those questions.

An Email from Raymond Franz
A local brother I just met at one of our Christian gatherings told me that he had exchanged emails with Raymond Franz before he died in 2010. I asked him if he would be so kind to share them with me and allow me to share them with all of you. This is the first one...
Examining Matthew 24, Part 2: The Warning
In our last video we examined the question asked of Jesus by four of his apostles as recorded at Matthew 24:3, Mark 13:2, and Luke 21:7. We learned that they wanted to know when the things he had prophesied – specifically the destruction of Jerusalem and its temple –...
Examining Matthew 24, Part 1: The Question
As promised in my previous video, we will now discuss what is at times called “Jesus’ prophesy of the last days” which is recorded in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21. Because this prophecy is so central to the teachings of Jehovah’s Witnesses, as it is with all...

Doubting the Bible: Does the Age of the Pyramids Disprove the Flood?
According to archeological evidence and Bible chronology, some of the pyramids existed before the Flood of Noah, yet they show no evidence of water damages. Does this prove there could not have been a biblical flood?

Learning How to Fish: The Benefits of Exegetical Bible Study
Hello. My name is Eric Wilson. And today I’m going to teach you how to fish. Now you may think that’s odd because you probably started this video thinking it’s on the Bible. Well, it is. There is an expression: give a man a fish and you feed him for...The Merit of Works and Jehovah’s Witnesses
[This article has been republished with the author’s permission from his own web site.] Jehovah’s Witness doctrine about the application of Jesus’ teaching of the Sheep and the Goats in chapter 25 of Matthew has some similarity with the Roman Catholicism’s...
The Nature of God’s Son: Who Cast Down Satan and When?
Hello, Eric Wilson here. I’ve been surprised by the reaction my last video provoked from the Jehovah’s Witnesses community defending the JW doctrine that Jesus is Michael the Archangel. Initially, I didn’t think this doctrine was that critical to the theology of...The Nature of God’s Son: Is Jesus the Archangel Michael?
In a recent video I produced, one of the commenters took exception to my statement that Jesus isn’t Michael the Archangel. The belief that Michael is the pre-human Jesus is held by Jehovah’s Witnesses and Seventh Day Adventists, among others. Have witnesses uncovered...A Jehovah’s Witnesses Elder Is Tried for Apostasy

While I was in St. Petersburg, Florida on vacation in February, I got a call from one of the elders of my former congregation “inviting” me to a judicial hearing the following week on the charge of apostasy. I told him that I wouldn’t be back in...More Distancing from Christ
An eagle-eyed reader shared this little gem with us: In Psalm 23 in the NWT, we see that verse 5 speaks about being anointed with oil. David is one of the other sheep according to JW theology, so he can’t be anointed. Yet the old songbook song based on Psalm...
The Spanish Field and Donations
The Spanish Field Jesus said: “Look! I say to you: Lift up your eyes and view the fields, that they are white for harvesting.” (John 4:35) Some time back we started a Spanish “Beroean Pickets” web site, but I was disappointed that we got very...
Does God Exist?
After leaving the religion of Jehovah’s Witnesses, many lose their faith in the existence of God. It seems that these ones had faith not in Jehovah but in the organization, and with that gone, so was their faith. These often turn to evolution which is built on the premise that all things evolved by random chance. Is there proof of this, or can it be disproved scientifically?
