Earlier I said you were ill informed about your religion or you are being deceitful. The very fact that you are trying to discredit the messenger, because the messenger just so happens to have inside info on your religion, shows that you are practicing "war strategy"

betraying your brothers is not the same as dying

I read it, and it's funny how the JW love to twist the scriptures


How can you compare what Rahab did to what you may say in court that may go against your brothers?

Rahab was trying to save her and her family's life

You really should read the referenced 1956 article before you start in on 'war strategy' and assuming that you understand what that entails. None of this has anything whatsoever to do with our preaching world. And I do not consider you my enemy. However, you seem to consider me yours.

believe me, I know alot, I mean a heck of a lot more about this religion than what you may realize, or maybe you do realize it and that is why you are being ever more deceitful.

I don't consider you my enemy either, but the entity who guides your religion, I most definitely do, and no I am not even remotely talking about the holy spirit.

Well, we aren't talking about brothers going to court for murder or rape...we're talking about our brothers going to court for preaching the word of God, as they were instructed to do. This work is far more important than the laws of the land and we will continue to do it regardless of whether we are under ban. Therefore, the 'court' proceedings the article is referring to involve these types of cases. Rahab's case absolutely applies. She knew the spies were from God's chosen people. We believe we are that chosen people today. Therefore there is no twisting of the scriptures necessary. But see it how you like.

And again, you feel that you are different than I? Interesting. I far prefer to follow the organization that i feel focuses on obedience to god than one that actually sanctions wars or fornication.

At all times they must be very careful not to divulge any information to the enemy that he could use to hamper the preaching work.

I also like this quote from Jehovah's Witnesses: Watchtower Society Official Web Site "Every lie is an untruth, but not every untruth is a lie." The cultists' favorite pasttime: semantics.
