  2) reliable; accurate 3) accurately 4) unswerving; exactly The Watch Tower Bible & Tract Society and the Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses have a long history of "flip-flopping" on doctrines and proclaiming prophecies that failed to come true. Mistake of fact is being "erroneous" which means it is not true. Being "exact" means just that. Armageddon was proclaimed to arrive in 1914. It did not happen. It's anything but the truth and it certainly is not the "Truth".

  I did say it first! And are you being mean?

  Because calling me "she" means I'm not here or a part of it, doesn't it? Nancy, N.drew, or you would be nice. I'm a little sensitive. Sorry!

  mind blown

  Thus my reasoning. Many lives have been affected (died or df'd or been left by spouses and family) due to the blood doctine. Now after many years, it's been changed. So now what? What about the thousands, upon thousands who have been negatively affected by this? I do not see this as accecptable to God.

  What about telling people the 1914 doctrine? Really? Telling millions of people on earth Christ took his place at that date? After all other of their p rophecies have failed. This is not acceptable to God?

  What about the many who have been cast out for literally stupid reasons? And to make is so hard to come back? I also don't think this is acceptable to God.

  I don't think it's acceptable to God, once they see the three witness rule is working regarding Child Sexual Abuse to continue, instead of reform.

  N.drew made a very interesting statement.... "an apostate would want them to fail, a Christian would want them to repent". I had always hoped they would repent and reform, simple tweeking....as they would expect us to do, however, it has not happened.

  The WTS is correct when qouting from the bible, saying gods word does not change. Read: 2 Thess 2:1-17/ 1 Timothy 1:1-20 / Ephesians 5:9-12 / 2 Corinth 11: 12-15 / LUKE 11:46

  In my personal opinion, I'm not going to sit here and lie to you. I personally feel things are worse. When Jesus said he's coming again, maybe it's going to straighten out the whole bs, where religion has gotten it wrong.....I don't know.......all I know is the WTS has serioulsy fucked up. They are more worried about being sued and their money, instead of doing what's wise and right.

  With everything I now know about the WTS, I couldn't go door to door asking thousands of people to change their lives for a lie.......
