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In our first article, we examined the Adad-Guppi Stele, an historical document which quickly demolishes Watchtower’s theory of possible gaps in the established line of Neo-Babylonian Kings.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?

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

The Nature of God’s Son: Who Cast Down Satan and When?

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...

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? Likewise, can the existence of God be proven by science, or is it just a matter of blind faith? This video will attempt to answer these questions.
Awakening: “Religion Is a Snare and a Racket”
“For God “subjected all things under his feet.” But when he says that ‘all things have been subjected,’ it is evident that this does not include the One who subjected all things to him.” (1Co 15:27)
Awakening: Part 5, What’s the Real Problem with JW.org
There is a key problem with Jehovah’s Witnesses that transcends all the other sins the organization is guilty of. Identifying this issue will help us to understand what is really the problem with JW.org and whether there’s any hope of fixing it.

Awakening, Part 4: Where Do I Go Now?
When we awake to the reality of JW.org doctrine and conduct, we are faced with serious problem, because we have been taught that salvation depends on our affiliation with the Organization. Without it, we ask: “Where else can I go?”
Awakening, Part 3: Regrets
While we may look back on much of our time spent serving the Organization of Jehovah’s Witnesses with regret of misspent years, there is ample reason to look at those years in a positive light.
