  RK: yes I agree, that is THE method to get at the core of the wt syndrome.

  It takes the bible ideas seriously, , and wt beliefs, but at the same time debunks it all.

  I suggested to you you to include the "millions now living will never die" detail, in just one sentence, in the reason that watchtower can give for the king of 1914 to have chosen them, over the vast choice available to be the F&DS. tongue in cheek of course.

  Today's wt pablum message contradicts their dictum " soon, last days" that is used internally,

  People after my own heart, then.

  RK: not just your's; one could imagine that the double portion in Rev 7 is a message to those that handed out the empty promises since 1919.

  Challenging the teacher.

  by Jofi_Wofo in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  imagine the case where a student disagrees with his teacher's method, and believes that he knows a better way.

  the teacher realizes that if he kicks the student out of the classroom, the other students may begin to wonder if the teacher was hiding something.

  to settle the matter once and for all, the teacher gives the student a chance to prove himself.. wisely, the teacher takes a moment to lay down the parameters for the challenge.

  wt used the teacher/ student challenge as an illustration in the blue " everlasting life " book.

  It must have been done to prevent any thinking human to become a witness. because:

  students have always as a whole, triumphed over their teacher's teachings.

  otherwise, we would be still swinging in trees.

  R.K. If the bible would be meaningful, these people you mention would be of the tribe of Joseph. in Rev 7. whistleblowers, hated and condemned by the ruling majority, who hopefully will eat out of their hand one day, as good puppies should.

  Talked to Br. Dunlap in OK twice, was not invited to get close enough to seriously talk.

  Chess is beyond the mental capacity of most. rdn:

  but not all. there is a case of one who was not satisfied with the mental torture of the board game, so he invented 3 Dimensional chess. mate.

  On the appointment in 1919 of the wt writers as the faithful slave by the king of 1914, answering his own question of Math 24, I would add,:

  he based his decision on the wt teaching at the time:

  "---millions now living will never die". and

  his approval is continuing, because that traching has not changed is still basically valid today.

  Are the Creative days 7000 years long?

  by Steve J in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  where does the idea that the creative days of the genesis account were 7,000 years long come from?.

  genesis doesn't suggest that they were specific time periods, but shows that one "day" extended into others.

  i feel that the clue is in the words; "and there was an evening and there was a morning, a first day.

  some wt writers seem still secretly to hang on to the "rest day" ides, in that they want to help the deity to finish the mess by the time the last day ends. Not to drag it into the 8st day.

  They always misquote scripture to saying the final test, execution of judgement happens at the end and not "after the 1000 years are ended"

  The whole thing is a fairy tale. The Earth was not created at the beginning .

  Ladies are the final masterpiece though.

  FOR EVERY CURRENT JEHOVAH'S WITNESS

  by JohnTron72 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the scripture said you must worship with spirit and truth.

  the publications you read which are called spritual food from jehovah, are written by those who are supposed to be the closest to god and are anointed.

  they claimed for decades to you that it was the creator's promise that those living during 1914 would live to see the fullfilment of the promise of a new earth.

  So they do not follow 1st Century Christianity as they claim.

  s3: and like in last week's wt " study ", they speak of observing Jesus' commands, and the he disappears and it becomes the other J. and

  truly they only "observe", watch from distance, especially when the bread and wine is passed.
