Jehovah's Witnesses Straight Talk - Forum/Blog

Explanation of why some can't hear the truth. Written for a sister who talk to a JW's that wanted her back into the WTS. The WTS memeber could not hear anything but what she believed.

I will state somethings that we already know simply as a reminder. It is very frustrating when such an experience happens, yet we can talk to people of the world, the same happens, other religions, the same happens, but occasionally and rarely Christ has an appointment,a divine appointment for us to speak to someone about the truth, in “Spirit”! Arranged by heaven through God's angels declaring the Good News.

John 14:17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world can't receive; for it doesn't see him, neither knows him. You know him, for he lives with you, and will be in you.

What a vast difference, what a joy! Flesh can't hear what the Spirit has to say, it is blinded, and death to the words of the Spirit, and if it is religiously trained flesh it will attack like a dog, trampling your find pearl of Spirit into the mire like a pig, both very fleshly animals.

Matt.7:6 "Don't give that which is holy to the dogs, neither throw your pearls before the pigs, lest perhaps they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces. 7:7 "Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you. 7:8 For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.

We will find while Jesus was on earth particularly in the book of John calling Israel the “world”, not the Gentles, as some perceive, but Israel those boasting in being Abraham's children. They were flesh, in other words, they could not hear Christ spirit words coming from God's Spirit indwelling him; one cannot cross over that great chasm without miraculous help from God's Spirit.

Luke 16:26 Besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, that those who want to pass from here to you are not able, and that none may cross over from there to us.'

The flesh, that is, our fallen flesh cannot be reformed as so many in false religion believes and teach, when the fleshly mind thinks it cannot think in the Spirit mind of Christ, which is, God's for us anointed as a gift of the Holy Spirit. Flesh thinks in laws, rules believing with all of its power that is what God is, blinding it to the truth of the Spirit of God. Spirit words are weak to the fallen flesh, foolish, laughable. Moreover, false religion teaches that reading words from the bible is the Spirit, it is not.

John 5:38 You don't have his word living in you; because you don't believe him whom he sent. 5:39 "You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and these are they which testify about me. 5:40 Yet you will not come to me, that you may have life. 5:41 I don't receive glory from men.

It would be like us thinking we can change a weed into a wheat with words from our bibles, we are not God, we don't have that power, to recreate weeds into wheat, we are but vessels of Holy Spirit directed from heaven to speak to those Christ wants us to speak with. This is how we know the truth and the lie, why? Simply because those of the flesh cannot listen to us, if they cannot hear us, they cannot hear the Spirit that unlocks the scriptures for God's anointed. Subsequently, they are not of us!

1 John 4:6 We are of God. He who knows God listens to us. He who is not of God doesn't listen to us. By this we know the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

We are not being arrogant here, we are speaking a very painful truth we have to endure in, and deal with each day, we are no part of this world, and can't be, simply because we have the life of Christ indwelling us. We suffer being unknown, unliked, and hated, and not heard because they could not hear our brother Christ. The world does not work for God's anointed, we are the target, Satan uses all in his power to keep us unknown lacking success, respect it is the flesh that is exalted in this world not God's Spirit. The WTS made it all about reforming the flesh, and its personal goodness, it was, and/or is a successful business its leader respected because its is the world that cannot hear the truth of the Spirit.

1 John 3:1 Behold, how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn't know us, because it didn't know him.

1 John 3:13 Don't be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you.

Those called out, rather their in, or literally out can't be successful in the WTS if they have the Spirit. They will be hated, persecuted by the flesh, and its teaching of power, control through merit gained by the flesh for obeying the rules of the WTS through works of law. Nor can we change them, we cannot make the field of weeds into wheat no matter our sincerest desires.

John 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh. That which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

John 6:63 It is the spirit who gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and are life.

John 8:15 You judge according to the flesh. I judge no one.

Romans 8:7 because the mind of the flesh is hostile towards God; for it is not subject to God's law, neither indeed can it be.

Romans 8:8 Those who are in the flesh can't please God.

But we have the power of Christ indestructible life in us, which gives us the power of God's Kingdom to war with evil spirits, not the flesh which cannot be changed, that is why God killed the flesh in Christ to work with the spirit of us. We are doing a work unseen by human in the flesh, the WTS does a work seen by the flesh, to boast in the flesh. Our work will not be known until Christ is reveal from heaven to all flesh. This is why we must have our minds armed correctly not in fancy of WTS teachings, we must suffer humiliation in the flesh because we have chosen treasure in heaven.

1 Peter 1:5 who by the power of God are guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

1 Peter 5:1 I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and who will also share in the glory that will be revealed.

1 Peter 5:4 When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that doesn't fade away.
