Avoimen keskustelun hedelmiä
Lähetetty: 11.10.2013 13:25
Avoin keskustelu ei jostain syystä maistu Jehovan todistajille. Ei Seuralle, eikä todistajille itselleen.
Yksi esimerkki tästä on Facebookiin perustettu Jt-sivu. Sivun teki (hyvää ajatellen tietenkin) joku rivi-Jt. Sivun perustajalle sattui kuitenkin vahinko ja tämä kadotti Fb-salasanansa niin että ei enää päässyt puuttumaan sivun kommentointiin (tai näin ainakin sivuston perustajaksi esiintyvä henkilö kertoo).
Sivulle tuli ajan kanssa tietenkin myös kriittistä tekstiä, mutta vastaaminen ja keskustelu ei jostain syystä maistunut.
Sivun perustaja kertoo:
Leinonen osasi valistaa mediassa suurta yleisöä, että he eivät ole suljettu yhteisö. Avoimesta keskustelusta kieltäytyminen ja se, että se pyritään estämään, on tietenkin aina selvä merkki siitä että ollaan tekemisissä avoimen yhteisön kanssa.

https://www.facebook.com/pages/Jehovahs ... 70?fref=tsDear brothers and sisters,I am the administrator of this page.
I need to apologize to everyone who has viewed this page because of what has happened.I will copy and paste this message to all the other posts so please read carefully:
I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses.
Several months ago I thought it would be a great idea to make a social networking page dedicated to sharing our beliefs with others.
I used the word 'official' in the sense that a baptised brother made this page,not in the sense that the Faithful Slave made the page..which would never happen since we have jw.org,published by the Faithful Slave.I should have been more specific and because of using that one word 'official',it has drawn many opposers to the page.
Unfortunately,as we all know,it is not a good idea to do so because apostates enjoy going to pages like these to debate over simple Bible truths.Blinded by their own selfish desires,their aim is to discourage our brothers and sisters.
I created this page using another email and using a complicated password.Unfortunately I lost the scrap of paper with the password on so I deleted the facebook app,abandoning the project,thinking nothing will happen.
Well it was brought to my attention by a few brothers I know that the page actually gained popularity and many slanderous messages were posted.This troubled me,so I downloaded facebook again,making a personal account so that I could share the message you are reading today.
Now when I saw these apostate comments,believe me..I was VERY angry at how stupid and senseless these people can be.Because I no longer have control over the page,which I am very annoyed about,I need to ask you brothers to help me out.Report this page to facebook and request it be deleted.State a good reason for the request.The more complaints facebook receives the more likely they are going to act.Thank you dear brothers and sisters,your help is much appreciated.I send you all my love.
Now,a message to the opposers on this page:
I am not afraid to say that your views are satanic.
That may sound harsh to you,but the Devil used deception,asking Eve 'Is it really so?' and saying 'you positively will not die!' Your prattle is written exactly like Satan's words.Your debates end you up nowhere.And that's why we avoid your sites,blogs,web pages etc.
Let me tell you a personal experience.My dad read your literature.He became a control freak,abused my sisters physically and mentally.He rammed down their throats apostate propaganda.My mum and I remained in the congregation and stuck to theocratic goals like pioneering and so forth.He opposed us without mercy,but our persistence silenced him.He broke up our family.Apostasy destroys families but the truth of God's Word unites families.So let me tell you all this:
Back off,you disgust me because you ruin people's lives,destroy relationships and harm people's spiritual routine.Go find something better to do with your lives.Try preaching the kingdom that Jesus spoke of..oh wait,some other group does that!Try showing love for your neighbour.
Try to stop staring at your computer screens,becoming religious fanatics online.
You are false teachers.You do not wish to use Jehovah's name and be known by him.
But as for us,we will continue respecting that Grand Name,Jehovah!We will not stop preaching the Good News.We don't worry about you opposers of our faith.
We leave the judging in Jesus' hands,then you will see who was right!
Well,back to my brothers and sisters now,I will not come back to view this message because no doubt someone else will have something negative to say.In fact I will just delete the facebook app and hope that you brothers will,like me,request that this page be deleted.And I also hope you brothers and sisters will continue being careful on social networks like this one.Out of conscience decision many brothers decided not to follow pages like this and just go to the website.Think about that,because that could be a little nudge in the right direction.
Brothers,continue making sure of the more important things! (Philippians 1:10)
