  Why build a new movie studio when we are in the last part of the last part of the last day?

  if the end is so near as the jehovah’s witnesses leadership claims (somehow they must have special insight), why are they building a movie studio that will be finished in 2026?.

  it’s not the first time something of this nature has happened in the society’s history.

  It was stated with no hint of doubt that the Generation of 1914 “WILL BY NO MEANS pass away” before the end came.

  Vh7. now, with the generation having been anointed, they WILL BY ALL MEANS pass away before the end, even qualify for kingdom rulership if "killed by the axe".

  are alert to recognise current falsifiable prophesies that fail, and they now have a platform on which to speak out and expose the falsehoods.

  one of these current prophecy is the anointed generation. it is already falsified, proven wrong.

  Jesus said that the generation would pass away after all theses things,[ including the end] have occured. but according to newest light,

  the anointed wt generation will pass away before the end even starts.

  Did pioneers get cheaper meal tickets at conventions too at some point?

  sbf: yes, free meal tickets for full time "servants". meals were a great fundraiser, basically financed the circuit overseer's car for the 4 month interval. imagine the operation for 250 000 in 1958, yankee stadium and Polo Grounds, NY city. .

  in order to answer this question properly, it is important to distinguish between the various meanings of the phrase ‘jehovah’s witnesses’.

  They said same thing back in the 90s, with all new KHs. They gonna be used in new system also. We know now how that went.

  a: The new system will be ushered in by a destruction, that will make the deluge seem like a picnic.

  Buildings will not survive, particularly not khs, assembly halls, that have been sold and turned into churches,

  Has the governing body been had by the 'superior Authorities'?

  Up into the 1960s, The superior authorities were The Father and the Son (Jesus.)

  Yes wt leadership was had by them. J&j never supported wt leadership in their wild prediction, what they bound on earth, in their bound volumes, was never bound in heaven.

  let us see whether the overlapped groups will have played out by 2075 as the math demands.
