i don't think this topic has been discussed before but yesterday i read something to the effect that trump wants a human mission to mars to be completed within his presidency.. with that being said, the watchtower teaches that what started on earth ends on earth, in other words, the fall of adam and eve would end with the passing of the 1,000 year millennial reign when christ destroys all his enemies, rebellious "perfect" humans, and the devil and his demons who are let out the abyss for a short while.
he then hands the kingdom back to his father.
an elder in my old congregation once told us during a public talk that he was an ardent astronomer but then referenced the scripture where it says, "the earth he has given to the sons of men" (psalms 115:16).
Would human settlement of Mars invalidate Bible prophecy?

He told us that man was breaking God's laws by leaving the Earth that Jehovah had given to humans and landing on the moon.
One more JW, who has no idea how the WBT$ operates..
The WBT$ would claim the WBT$/JW`s were the 1st ones on Mars..

at this week clam meeting, jeremiah 29:10 is discussed:.
jer 29:10—how does this verse demonstrate the accuracy of bible prophecy?
the mistranslation of this verse is the basis of the idea that the jews spend 70 years in exile in babylon.
And he always had some mighty fine wine.

This might be a good week to start a conversation about Jeremiah.

it made me fell like, la ti da!
you helped members of your own church..
Ichiki Matsunaga, a spokesman for Jehovah’s Witnesses in Japan, states: “Over the past few months, we have been recovering and rebuilding along with the thousands of victims of the Kumamoto earthquake.
He conveniently forgot to mention..
The WBT$ will ask JW victims of the earth quake..
For any disaster relief money they may receive from the Japanese Government..
It`s another WBT$ Scam..
The WBT$ uses JW donated, JW Labour and Supplies to help other JW`s..
The WBT$ collects any disaster relief money JW`s may receive..
None of this costs the WBT$ a dime..
.........
More "Scam Money" For The WBT$..

the way that the wt conducts business in russia, hiding ownership of property and moving money overseas, was a large factor in the jws falling afoul of the russian authorities.
it wasn't just 'extremist' views that came into play, it was also their handling of money that was illegal.. this article is from a russian news source - i had to use google translate to read it, so i have copied and pasted the whole article (i usually don't...apologies to the author of the article).
if someone has russian language skills, please feel welcome to offer a better translation.. .
The brother assigned by the User of property should be prepared, if necessary, bravely to defend the legitimate interests of the congregation, and not be afraid of meeting with government officials (police, prosecutors, regulatory authorities).

Well, it's good afternoon, now......Sylvia
when growing up in a "proper" j.ws household:-.
a) our moral opinions are conditioned by this environment and upbringing.. b) to hold to jws belief and moral opinions gives our life purpose.. c) what we believe we hold it to be true.. d) in terms of approval it can be difficult for the mind to accept logical evidence if our life is based on "truth" and " moral opinions" that conflict with our conscience.. anyway i am not sure where i am going with this o.p?.
i guess my point is that settling factual and logical disputes with jws has proven more challenging than i realized.

JW`s are obsessed with and take comfort in, being right..
Truth is not a high priority for them..
how many in your age group are still jehovahs witnesses?
from where we are at, there aren't many left.
each year it gets smaller and smaller haha .
I saw a bunch of JW`s at a family funeral..
They looked old and worn out, no spark of life left in their eyes..
They were dressed nice though, we could have buried them too..
