Last Week's Watchtower had something that made people start questioning things?
by silentbuddha ini just got a call from a friend who said that something in last weeks watchtower caused a number of people in various congregations to start questioning things, and several long time elders left.
i am totally out of the loop but i do read things here and i heard of no such thing.. something to the effect that jw's and governing boobies are not inspired or something along those lines?.

Par. 11 "...Nowhere do we read of God’s telling Job specifically the reason behind his suffering. The main point of Jehovah’s words was not to explain to Job why he was suffering, as if God had to justify himself.
Par. 2: "---Or we could allow the weight of our personal trials to eclipse that great issue.
thank you blondie.

resurrected in the spirit, but gifted to "materialize" a new, different fake body (like the angels before the flood) , after 30 days of that, going to heaven, departing in a fake body. Ten days later showering the 120 with holy spirit in the form of artificial fake flames. or
so the story goes, written decades later with enhanced memory

I just took a quick look and couldn't find anything in the study article for last week that touched on that. Maybe I missed it.
right, every comment seems to just harp on familiar gripes, GB, prophecy, but those are not in the study at all.
It is about Job and the rest of us to put up and shut up, and being kept in ignorance by wt. the g,o,d,
Thanks blondie to at least put that up for those to read before spouting.

main message: Wt, g.o.d. , does not have to account for what havoc they create.

not that this alone would make one want to leave wt , but:
par. 2 used the words " eclipse the greater issue", ha ha, for us attending meetings in the pass of totality, next day's, August 21, 2017, event was marked. appropriately. Calendar - conscious astronomer among the writers?
par. 8 Emphazising sovereignty ad nauseum, is not belittling our salvation, so they say, but they certainly can not guarantee it, what salvation anyway?
par.9) wt shows no regard for the death of innocent victims, the servants, the children, never mind Job himself.
par 10. how dare Job demand a reason for his suffering?
par 11 the clincher: "-- the main point of Jehovah's word was not to explain to Job why he was suffering--" by extension wt is under no obligation, in their opinion, being g.o.d. , to explain anything to their suffering and longsuffering members.
The rest: do more to support (why the creator would need support, propping up?) by work, even putting in 80 hours during less than a month before your death.
to sum up: using the mixed up tale of Job to justify wt's nebulous message of non-salvation, justifying collateral damage, justifying stone walling on burning questions, demanding all for the org, down to death. good job on Job.
The eclipse came on time. there are true (scientific) prophets in the wt's last days.

Demonic content being used in the "Remember the Wife of Lot" video?
by The Fall Guy insadly it's in german, but i've been reliably informed of the crucial relevance of the moon, butterflies, owls, geckos, & mirrors in spiritistic practices - all featured in the "slave's" offering!
perhaps someone with a knowledge of german can provide a more detailed analysis.. according to this guy's forensic examination of the video, it uses spiritistic practices and symbolism repeatedly.
far too much to be a coincidence?

Cal: beards, like pubic hair keeps useful organs from getting sunburned. they became standard issue after the radiation protective water canopy over the circle flat earth was removed.
"And so through one man, did sin and beards enter into this world"
so, if for true paradise the Earth will be flat and have a water cover, so be it. No need for Burkas too.

there is a parallel with ISIS, It is in part a generational thing, the king of Jordan said.
The "victim/victor" rewriting history before the victory.
We are so stupid, we are tearing down statues of people...
stupid like the germans first killing millions of their brightest citizen, only to replace them now with the opposite, opposers.Even
Canada is getting on the band bulldozer, starting to remove Sir J. A. Macdonald's names, statues?
