  where a few of us here on the forum live is in an emergency situation.

  the main spillway on oroville dam -- the tallest dam in the usa -- is damaged.

  the emergency spillway, never used before in the 48 years the dam has operated, is eroding.. major confusion and panic occurred when the order went out sunday, late afternoon: this is not a drill!.

  I look forward the the JW Broadcasting report that jehovah's witnesses were taking the lead in volunteering and helping people find shelter while Stephen Lett held back the waters with his finger in the dike.

  
  

  Stephen Lett shows "the finger of god" he used to save the Oroville Dam.

  So, Watchtower is claiming that Stephanie lied to the elders. In that case the elders would have counselled her on lying and given a 'marking' talk. Further Watchtower would not claim privilege on lies. Methinks Watchtower is lying.

  It will be great to question the elders about when or under what circumstances did they suddenly realize they were lied to.

  this was sent to me from doug shields blog.

  for those who like stats and numbers may find this of interest.. 1914 – recognizing the ”the elephant in the room”.

  the problem with the date ”1914 ad” lays with the two calendars that are involved – jewish and gregorian.

  As the prophecy of "seven times" [insert scripture here] was inspired by jehovah [insert scripture here] then he knew that "in the last days" [insert scripture here] true light will be abundant. [insert scripture here]

  Evidently jehovah knew [insert scripture here] that the Jewish and Gregorian calenders kept different numbers of days. Hence as the great time keeper [insert scripture here] jehovah could foresee [insert scripture here] that his prophecy would need to take into account the overlapping years [insert scripture here] so that true correct date would fit in with accurate teachings of the Watchtower. [insert scripture here]

  Are we not happy brothers that jehovah pointed to 1914 as the start of his kingdom [insert scripture here] and the appointment of the "faithful and discreet slave" [insert scripture here] in 1919.

  Clearly jehovah has our best intests at heart [insert scripture here] by revealing to "the slave" [insert scripture here] the times and seasons. [insert scripture here]

  by darkspilver in

  i believe this has appeared into today's edition of the cairns post print newspaper (saturday 4 february 2017) at the top of page 4 under the headline: "indecent charges for man" - the actual text of the article is apparently the same as the online version below:.

  cairns post - saturday 4 february 2017. tablelands police charge former jehovah’s witness with offences against children.

  an elderly tablelands man and former jehovah’s witness member will appear in court this month amid allegations he molested three young girls from the church more than 25 years ago.
