Do the scandals of Jehovah's Witnesses have a prophetic meaning?

Hello. I'm ex-JW in Japan. I think that Jehovah's Witnesses is God's organization.

Watch Tower Society lost in court. Many people might be disappointed with the corruption of the organization of Jehovah's Witnesses recent.

Many people may think that God's organization is always blameless. However, the record of the Bible is not so. And, I think that there is meaning that God organization rots. What do you think? (This is my question).

-----------------

For reference, I show my opinion in the following.

-

I think that Matthew 25:5 is fulfilled in the current Governing Body.

"While the bridegroom was delaying, they all became drowsy and fell asleep". (Mt 25:5).

Please attention to "they all". In other words, even the discreet (true anointed remnants) virgins also fall into snooze.

In fact, this is the fundamental reason of misconduct of the organization of JW. In other words, now, Governing Body is falling into spiritual snooze.

But, they will soon wake up. At that time, the bridegroom Jesus Christ will come to inspect God's people.

    I don't know about prophetic meanings.

    But this I do know! And you better consider it damn good carefully!!!

    Yes their are issues taking place in the kingdom halls

    Wolves are preying on the sheep because were sheep are their will be wolves..

    But this is the part you need to consider damn good!

    If Jehovah's witnesses was not one of gods chosen people's..

    Their would not be any news!

    Nobody gives a rats tail about some old cult!

    The fact Jehovah's witnesses are at the very forefront of religious news..

    Forces you to realize that they are in everybody's mind.they are in fact

    Gods true church and when they have a problem it screams out to the wicked quick! Quick! Let's use this as to destroy! Let talk it up big time let's gossip.

    Jehovah's witnesses make the news because the wicked grab the opportunity to gossip and defame

    Rather then helping identify and jail the predator.

    They attack the sheep that got hurt by the predators.

    Who only pretend to be j.w. so they can molest.

    Individuals falling down? Yes. Collectively now? No.

    COMPARE:

    1 John 2:18, 19

    "18 Young children, it is the last hour, and just as you have heard that the antichrist is coming,+ even now many antichrists have appeared,+ from which fact we know that it is the last hour. 19 They went out from us, but they were not of our sort;*+ for if they had been of our sort, they would have remained with us. But they went out so that it might be shown that not all are of our sort."

    2 Peter 2:1, 2

    "However, there also came to be false prophets among the people, as there will also be false teachers among you.+ These will quietly bring in destructive sects, and they will even disown the owner who bought them,+ bringing speedy destruction upon themselves. 2 Furthermore, many will follow their brazen conduct,*+ and because of them the way of the truth will be spoken of abusively."

    Pay particular attention to 2 Pet 3:9 and then 1 Peter 4:6-10

    Please get the holy bible out and read for yourself if the watchtower is Gods organization on earth.

    Consider these bible facts:

    *All believers who have trusted Christ for their salvation belong to the body of Christ NOT to a man-made organization on earth (1Cor 12:27, 1Cor 15:1-4, Rom 10:9 & Eph 1:13)

    *God has appointed in the church (body of Christ) SOME apostles, prophets, teachers,evangelists, pastors etc, for ministry and the edifying of the body of Christ (1Cor 12:28 & Eph 4:11-12)

    note: In none of these scriptures are their any mention of a human organization, governing body or a faithful and discreet slave being appointed by God to the church.

    *So what are going to believe the bible or the watchtower on this matter ?

    *Also I think you know already that the watchtower over the years have predicted many false dates on the end times and Christ's return e.g 1914,

    1925, & 1975.

    *If they were truly Gods mouthpiece (prophet) on earth they would never have made false prophecies in the first place (Deut 18:20)

    *The truth is that the watchtower/JWs are another latter day cult preaching doctrines of devils e.g a false gospel and a false Jesus the apostle Paul warns the body of Christ to avoid (1Tim 4:1, 2Cor 4:4, 11:4, & Gal 1:6-9)

    hi there

    the correct scripture regarding the watchtower -

    Matthew 7

    15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

    16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

    17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.

    18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

    19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

    20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

    You indicate a Japan court case. Here's a news flash: we have no knowledge whatsoever of the court case.

    So how can we be expected to comment intelligently? So either offer a link verifying and explaining the case, or explain it yourself. Until then, our time is wasted here.

    Don't rely on your own understanding. The Bible says so.

    Proverbs 3:5

    "Trust in Jehovah with all your heart,

    And do not rely on your own understanding."
