i have heard a few whispers that once again they are going to be changing the generation teaching.
does anybody have on info on this?.

connected with the generation timeline was also the concept ot the wt writers' "judgement period".
To even the playing field, that doctrinal twist suggested, that anybody that died during a proclamation of impending doom by jws, you were on the spot subject to the current judgement terms, . even if you died before the judgement was executed, at the end, you were already a goner.
No wormhole tunneling into the new world possible. your lifetime was vital.

remember, it is just entertaining
mf, of course it is entertaining and keeps our old brains spry, but according to wt, people will be judged to eternal condemnation on whether they agree with current wt doctrine or not, reject us at the doors, Now the phone.
Our basic premise at the doors, 150 hours a month, was: you are wrong (doctrinally) and we are right. your choice wt&awake subscription or gehenna.
Is not instant judgement in vogue again, not a delay to the great tribulation?
“bible illustrations [parables] have more than one aspect.
they … often have a prophetic meaning and application.
moreover, some had a prophetic meaning for the time when they were spoken or shortly thereafter, and some were to have, in addition, a fulfillment in the distant future.” (insight on the scriptures (1988), wtbts, vol 1, pp.
Here is what JWFACTS had to say about the inspection in 1919:
R&R great wtfacts. and their public front slogan was: " The world has ended, Millions now living will never die"
May be the picking of them was right, they still are preaching amazing stuff like that.

they have decreed that Matthew 24:45-47 is literal FFG
The parable starts with a question about the quality of the "food". which implies a competition for weeding out erroneous and untimely ideas. demoting those that have and teach them.
Jesus might have in mind his own experiences in the synagogue, where he was allowed, invited to interpret scripture. Paul too was using that open forum concept of worship, where the Bereans had the right to research and question competing ideas, aka "spiritual food".
Wt's assertion that they satisfied that requirement of quality food in 1919, shows how detached from reality they are.
wt you are no Galileo, Kepler, Copernicus, Newton. or Joseph.

It was very surprising, that wt writers used the inclusion of the question: " who then is the faithful and wise servant--" NIV in the end time prophecy, - as an excuse to appoint themselves as god's mouthpiece. of 1919 vintage.
In the process they disinherited such greats as Paul, James, John and Luther, Kepler, Copernicus, Galilei, amd yes, I. Newron the bible researcher.. Partakers all, part of the previous "slave class"
May be these parables are planted to separate the wheat from the chaff.
The heavies mentioned above from the peripheral light weights like wt, with their so called new light. Very light, with little substance - indeed, blown away by the wind, blowing, changing direction, from the "4 corners of the earth."
should these parables by treated as strained / sustained metaphors?
how are they handling the memorial this year?
zoom or open kh's?
how do they reject the wine & bread in their own home?
where does it say that people who do not partake have to touch the emblems at allrv 2000
when you think about it, the "other sheep"= jw non-partakers need the emblems more that the "anointed". the anointed will die to go to heaven, (pay the price) but the OS will never die at all, so they need the new covenant to have their sins really forgiven to keep living.
that is why Jesus passed the emblems to people with an earthly hope, that were un-anointed to eat and drink. not to wink.
gen 1: 11 says: .
11 then god said, “let the earth sprout [j]vegetation, [k]plants yielding seed, and fruit trees on the earth bearing fruit according to [l]their kind [m]with seed in them”; and it was so.
12 the earth produced [n]vegetation, [o]plants yielding seed according to [p]their kind, and trees bearing fruit [q]with seed in them, according to [r]their kind; and god saw that it was good.
all the springs of the great deep burst forth, NIV
Bobcat thanks for the reminder. kind of like a super "old faithful" letting go ~ 5000 years ago. like the earth in hot anger blowing it. now all that 9 km of water cap back in the porous mantle.
not only the talking snakes were left speechless.

mikeflood : Let's guess bold here...
John, the anointed, of bible writer fame, lived to ~103 CE. survived the end by 40 + years.
current wt generation doctrine has the anointed generation die at the beginning of the great tribulation. can they die a second death, perhaps writing the "new scrolls", -- 40 years after Armageddon too?

The "water canopy" that supplied the water for the global deluge of Genesis chapter 6 is mixed up in there as well, at some point.
FFG good points. To wt adherents must then be explained how that much water, more then double the present ocean volume, was suspended above ground (by pressure or in space by orbital velocity like saturn's rings.)
Near earth it would block all sunlight, like the oceans do now in the deep. Saturn's rings are now split by moons, our rings would be pretzels with our massive moon. .
to wt's satisfaction, perhaps the Perseverance rover will discover that Mars ran dry because Everest was flooded.
some interesting quotes from evolutionists.
natural history, vol.
' new scientist, vol.
It is totally obvious that evolution could not have occurred.
R: it is obvious that evolution did and does occur. It is the tool that a possible creator uses to develop the world. not just life,
even the laws of nature might have "evolved" by trial and error. erroneous laws would not create a universe, just have the trial situation revert back to chaos, to energy.
sex is the most enjoyable evolutionary creative tool there is, inho.
