the bible at 2 kings 25: 8 and 9 says "in the 19th year of king nebuchadnezzar the servant of the king came to jerusallem and burned the house of jehovah.
he is slowly coming around as he has already admitted that he may be in error.
Yeah I can see you got him right where he wants you, er you want him.
scholars have nicely provided a workable chronology that is truly functional
So post it already, geeze we are all waiting. Or just give me the post where you did write it.

Neil Im still searching your posts and have not come across your "neo-Babylon" kings list. What year did you post that?Thanks in advance

Am I being ingnored?
like so many people, i'm (very carefully)trying to convey the obvious "truth" about the wtb&ts to some of the members of my family.
is there any key point that "stands out" in your memory as pivotal in the opening of your eyes?
or any particular point that may have opened the eyes of your loved ones?
For me, "Beth-sarim" that the org would actually build a house for the prophets return. Laughable to the enth degree.
Like my 7yo says "your--ah... goofy goober yeah.... (Spongebob movie).
i want to say how brave i think all of you are for stepping out of the jw's, even if it's hidden (those of you still going).
whenever witnesses would knock on our door, i always felt they were ok and just worshipping god in the way they felt was right.
i never knew it came with soooo much stress and shunning if one does not comply.
I was born in but from my earliest recollection knew it was just all wrong....
ditto!
read ezekiel 40:1 in the twenty-fifth year of our exile, at the beginning of the year, on the tenth of the month, in the fourteenth year after the fall of the cityon that very day the hand of the lord was upon me and he took me there.
--- one verse showing that babilonian captivity is not the same as jerusalem destruction.
ofcourse if we start to count the 70 years from babilonian invasion into whole region (jeremia is talking about whole region not only jersualem and even not only judea)
very grateful to those humble and wise Bible Students who properly discerned matters.
Does this apply to the reason beth-sarim was built? Discerned matters, like what?

scholar: History shows that 1914 was the most significant date of world events and that is because of the events that happened both in the heavens and the earth. We can all be very grateful to those humble and wise Bible Students who properly discerned matters.
Hey genius, what about the embrassing fact that the "Gentiles" where still trampling Jerusalem past 1914. Anyway show us your neo-Babylonian kings list, ya know the one that streeeeeeeeeeeeetches out one of your kings rule 20 years.

Your model is just plain stupid and deceitful, just a compromise made to fit your twisted and convuluted interpretations which are all dead-ends.

You assume that because I don't believe you I believe nothing. If that is your view, then you are a bombastic arrogant fool.
You said Bombastic ....LMAO
Here we go again with the "scho-liar" Come up with that list yet Neil?? edited to add: Neil, Im still searching your posts' to find that list you said you posted.
when you were a witness did you get depressed around the holidays ?
tell me what your feelings were then and now.
When I was a young dubby I wished I could be a part of it. I would say merry christmas to people to fit in. We were poor and seeing gift giving was a bit depressing, that with my realizing the jw doctrine was the root of my parents divorce which left us in financial straights was salt to the wound.
However, Ive been celebrating xmas for about 21 years. I love it. Being a Christian recongnizing/remembering Christ' birth is first for me personally, secondly is getting together with friends and family and neighbors and of course everybody loves getting a gift. I certaintly dont stress, I guess if your that kind of person you'll stress no matter, I look forward to it every season.
Its strange watching my elder-stepfather in my house at xmas. He was not raised a dub but hes been one for some 40years. So he knows xmas. I just wish my parents could share this family tradition with us. It would be great. Merry xmas ya'll
