My mom emailed me and asked if they could come to town and go to our district convention with us. I politley said no thank you we wont be attending. We havent been to meeting in a long long time. My dad wrote me the following email trying to scare me in a nice way?
Hi Son,
How you n' yours doin?
Wasn't last weeks WT great!
It is fun being the Tower overseer. I have to study it twice!
The comparison of the warnings that Jesus and Paul gave in the book of Hebrews (30 yrs after Jesus) and a warning that will come from the Faithful slave at any moment about exactly what to do when the trib. starts blows my mind.
I never thought about Pauls letter to the Hebrews having to do with something the Slave will declare to us either in a letter or the Tower. I think a letter because it is faster.
The part I like was how the Hebrew Witnesses in Jerusalem recalled every detail (due to their faithfullness to Jehovah in meeting attendance) of Jesus instructions 30 years before. Flee to the MOUNTAINS!. Not just flee when you can get out, but to the MOUNTAINS. They went to Pela, in the mountains! Such faith! That detail must have been used in every meeting part for all those 30 years, just like all of our meetings.
I doubt we will be told to go hide in the mountains but somewhere in Jesus instructions there will be an order for us that the slave will discern and pass along to us just at the right moment. We may have to just respond without hast then and there and leave the kindom hall all at once just like the Witnesses in Jerusalem! Another point I liked was (can't remember if it was in the same issue or where ) that we are not in the last days... but, the last hours of the system. Amazing. I have never heard that expression before. Now if I can just pay attention like the Hebrew witnesses did!
Love you Son, give the family my love,
Daddddd
This is coming from a guy who has no heatlh insurance for he and my mom and self diagnoses his mental illness by ordering prescription drugs from canada without a doctors note. Looks like I'll get back to meetings this week cause now this world will be ending any hour. NOT. I remember growing up they said the end of this system is right around the corner, then it was right in front of us, now its hours away. WOW. Brainwashed slaves. I had to hear this kind of bull my whole life from my dad. He used to walk around the house saying "Weve started living forever already, we will never die". He is now 60 and my mom is 59.
