The GB only recently said,that they would be teaching only "simple" and basic bible teachings. Why? Because if one REALLY examines the bible,then the lies within jws are seen. So they are "dumbing down" jws,so that they dont question anything. If we are having trouble understanding what Pearl is saying,then we need to learn to study the bible and UNlearn bad "bible" habits from the GB. This will take time. When taught by jws,we were told to trust the GB,not Jah through the Bible. They dont explain HOW to study the Bible,they teach us to DEPEND on the GB. Therefore,we dont need to learn how to think and really learn the art of thinking from the Bible. "Bible study", is not being told by the GB to listen unconditionally to them! We have to learn to gain "understanding".Pro 4:7 And with all your acquiring,get understanding.<br /><br /> The challenge for the 19YO writing to Pearl is START thinking and learning how to think from Jahs point of view instead of being told how to think. No-one can do that for you. But if you are just starting to learn the Bible,then learning how to think is part of that. It will also mean UNDOING dependency on the GB,which will be the mantra from now on for those "studying"/associating with jws. We are going to be dedicated to Jah. No-one else. Pearls teachings will take time to understand. Thats because she is not telling you what you must think,she is SHARING with us what CHRIST THINKS...and He gives REASONS for saying what He does. Pearl is the messenger. Christ is who we listen to. NOT the GB or any other human. We have to unlearn terrible non Bible ways of thinking if we "study" with jws. They are NOT saying listen to Christ,they are saying listen to the GB. This is wrong! The GB are NOT Christ. If you are thinking about being a jw,then do some research on this site about WHERE the name Yhwh's witnesses are in the Bible and who it applies to? Is it Jws? Its a stolen name that belongs only Anointed who prove faithful! So going by that name alone and how its stolen,can we "join" jws if they bear a stolen name? Its this type of REAL Bible study that will help us know what we must do to be dedicated to Jah,not an organisation.<br /><br />Then there is the "hidden mantra" that we all need "gods approval". We are all insecure and have doubts about ourselves. The GB/JWs play on this. <br />"If we want gods approval,then we trust the GB. When we do that and do what they say,we have gained gods approval".<br />This is not correct! But that is what we are taught while there. There is only one way to gain Jahs Love and approval,when we listen to Christ. Its a lot to take in when young or trying to learn what Jahs Truth really is. Start with basics. Learn HOW to think in a biblical way. It takes time,so be patient. :-)RandomAbstractnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15377779901687026110noreply@blogger.com
