    Theophanies: God’s appearances to people in the Old Testament were not direct, face-to-face encounters. Instead, they were manifestations of God’s presence or power, often in human form or through angels. These theophanies were not a direct revelation of God’s essence, but rather a way for God to communicate with His people. Moses’ experience: Moses’ encounter with God in Exodus 33 is often cited as an example of a theophany. While God spoke to Moses “face to face,” this phrase is often interpreted as a figure of speech, emphasizing the intimacy and closeness of their relationship. Moses did not see God’s face, but rather God’s back, as God’s glory was too great for humans to behold (Exodus 33:20). John’s emphasis: John’s statement in John 1:18 may be emphasizing that no one has seen God in His essential nature or in His glory. While God has appeared to people in various forms, these appearances were not a direct revelation of His essence. John is highlighting the uniqueness of Jesus Christ, who is the only begotten Son of God and has declared God’s nature to humanity. The limitations of human understanding: The Bible teaches that humans are limited in their ability to comprehend God’s nature and glory. God’s appearances to people in the Old Testament were often adapted to their understanding, and even Moses was not allowed to see God’s face because it would have been too much for him to bear (Exodus 33:20)

    The phrase “rightly dividing the word of truth” is found in 2 Timothy 2:15, where the apostle Paul encourages Timothy to be diligent in his study of the Bible. The phrase is often misunderstood, and its meaning is crucial for understanding the Bible correctly. What does it mean to rightly divide the word of truth? According to the search results, the phrase “rightly dividing the word of truth” means to accurately handle the Word of God. It is not about dividing the Bible into separate passages or books, but rather about understanding the context, audience, and intended meaning of each passage. The importance of rightly dividing the word of truth Rightly dividing the word of truth is essential for understanding the Bible correctly. It requires diligence, effort, and a commitment to studying the Bible. As Paul writes, “Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15)

I think we're all just trying to find our authenticity and sovereignty. The wife is coming at it from a toxic point of view and prescribing what works for her onto her husband. I did that with an ex once, not good!!! many therapists suck but not all. i found a great one 20 years ago she's just pricey!!

    It seems like this gentleman's wife may have an "all or nothing" outlook, much like being in a cult. Perhaps the mind control of watchtower is still at play. Very sad. Perhaps she's programmed to only be comfortable if things are highly controlled. It's terrible that watchtower could still maintain control even after someone leaves and seeks help.

Who do you think this would group would be today? [Their governing body claims to be acting like the voice of Christ]

  • @pafedu
    @pafedu 2 дня назад

    Sorry Lloyd, but your handling of the subject is problematic and inadequate. 1. The caller did not describe anything that would do justice to the evaluation as a cult. Especially as former members of the JWs, one should not devalue this word just to be able to frame a topic with it. 2. Asking the other person only whether they have ever heard of others living psychotherapy as a cult, but explicitly excluding the possibility of getting help from you, gives a good insight into the person's mindset and possibly justifies the polarising portrayal (in the sense of "partner does everything wrong, I do everything right"). 3. We all know that JWs cross boundaries time and time again. Setting personal boundaries about your partner's behaviour is right and important and by no means toxic. So admitting and demanding boundaries in the process is perfectly fine and in fact an extremely important step in the healing process. For people who are not that advanced in their process yet, this may seem harsh. But even they will come to realise that it is the right thing to do. If today, after leaving the JWs, it is a requirement for a person that their partner undergoes therapy, that is absolutely their right. Just as it is the right of the partner do decline, bearing all according consequences. 4. If one approaches psychotherapy with a fundamentally wrong attitude, it cannot help. To what extent the JWs demonisation of psychotherapie still plays a role here would need to be clarified. 5. Certainly, the consequences of the JW period are different for everyone. However, it is undisputed that the JWs are a high control group that operates with manipulation, subversion and threats. It is obvious that this, especially if you were born in, leads to misprogramming in character and the psyche in general. To not hide and not avoiding these effects is an tough challenge. There are various compensation mechanisms that allow one to maintain life structure and thus cushion the true effects of the JW period. However, these effects will always hit. The only question is when. All the better if you have scientifically sound, clinically proven help from psychologists or psychotherapists at your side. With a little empathy and knowledge of human behaviour, one could have recognise the one-sidedness of the callers descriptions. You have not asked enough questions about this or worked deep enough to point it out. It is very problematic to make psychotherapy and people who (strongly) advocate it look so hearless and uncooperative. By doing so you are potentially contributing to victims of JWs not receiving adequate help because they could get the feeling that psychotherapy is not a valid demand. I strongly recommend that you take a closer look at this issue. And not only in the course of your personal contact with a therapist. It is good that you're counseling, even more this should let you feel the importance. But also shed light on the overarching, meta-level in relation to psychotherapy as such and even more so in relation to cults and leaving cults.

    • @katydid5088
      @katydid5088 2 дня назад

      While you have valid points, there are two realities to be faced. One people may need therapy, and two, they may not be ready for that level of self reflection. If you were to ask a veteran with ptsd if they want therapy right after exiting a war zone, they won't take it. Even if they know about it and have symptoms of dysfunctional or unhealthy behavior without self-realization, ultimatums are what will motivate them to either begrudgingly go and get nothing from the experience or they might stay if it helps. We know from mandatory counseling sessions in alcohol and drug abuse that the rate of relapse remains high. A person forced into therapy may benefit, or it may turn them so far from ever looking at help again that they won't try till years down the road with more compounded issues. This person's wishes from what we hear from them is that, a declaration they must do it or else. Given their from an environment where penalizing yourself with ostracism and shame is the norm, they're in another path to continue the isolation. They've survived once they can do it again. For what we know this is an order not a dialougue and the caller clearly isn't in a place (and nor is their spouse) of explaining what they mean,why they're upset, and finally if they're ready to accept that while they might separate the decision to go to therapy has no element of choice. If you can't see how much it relates to growing up in spiritual and religious conversion, maybe you're playing devil's advocate for someone who is not going to be a helpful part of this person's recovery. Issuing ultimatums is bad, but so is languishing in a relationship where there's no self sovereignty. The partner has a right to ask for therapy as a boundary as they do for a case of separation without it. Honestly, I wish them the best because leaving on terms like these will take more time to integrate and accept.

    Re Jephthahs daughter - the WT are not the only ones who follow the reasoning of the woman to become a nun. This is similar of Hannah offering samuel to Jehovah and his temple. If she was to be burned there would be no point to weep for her viginity. Really it makes sense she became a nun and then wept for her virginity. The problem is changing it from lamneting to giving commendation. That totally changed the meaning.

I can fully see this therapy can be it for someone, theyll pushing it to people. I have been 3 years in therapy, but it should be doing by free will, not by anyone saying you wont be worth of my love if you dont go. Thats insane. Therapy is just one of the tools we can use, its not for everyone and maybe person isnt ready for it that moment, maybe later or maybe not.

At the same time people who are leaving have to rebuilt their identity. Feeling deceived or frustrated can lead to old behaviour patterns. In most cases and for most people therapy is useful, but it's not helpful trying to force someone to do it. It's a problem itself. And actually there are people out there who maybe won't benefit from a therapy.

    I don’t mean to change the subject but my mom is a JW and asked me to research why they haven’t came out with any new watchtower and awake magazines. I guess they’re behind. I wonder if anyone else has brought this up and if you have any idea if they are struggling?
