  The idea of the ransom comes from the concept that there was something going wrong with creation 6000 years ago. It really was a good production for 13 billion years, resulting in the universe, life and all the perfectly functioning species.

  then a talking snake precipitated the idea, that the normal life and death cycle of all creation (including stars) , to be an abnormality for humans.

  The ransom does not have to work if it is a contrived story in the first place. no quasi-cannibalism required.

  good glass of wine under the full spring moon though.

  mankind,s progress/regress continues unabated since the golgotha event, the "second" coming in 1914 even.

  Great answers. ha ha. In its barest form, wt doctrine on the ransom is, that jesus had the right to eternal earthly life. he gave that up in favour of humans, and the better hope of himself returning to a, better, immortal spirit life.

  The wt 144 000 do likewise, wrongly imagining to be the only ones in the new covenant for forgiveness of sins, , they too, are willing to sacrifice that right for the higher calling. now,

  if only there really had been talking snakes, asses. did the story work?

  The gambit worked for wtbts inc so far.

  can you identify or show the difference in the group of words labelled a and b. a. last part of that last day.... year 1967 .

  b. shortly before the last day of the last days..... year 2020 .

  is the light getting brighter or going into darkness?

  light is named such for a reason, it is very light. one square km of sunlight weights as much as one litre of water spread over that huge area,( or 2 quarts of water covering a square mile) and sunlight is very bright, it will blind you within minutes. Unlike

  the light from redundant wt doctrines, which carried no weight at all, it is darkness, it is in effect repellant.

  It is just a question of time before some current wt emissions will prove to be darkness drivel too. wt is repelling but never repenting. ( well, they said they regretted to have published the number 1975).

  Perhaps the lecture is all about how they didn’t get the prize of heaven but got second prize.

  no, look at the chart. It is about the jeffro, vs. wt scholar debate, Daniel's statues and author status.

  For dramatic effect a young Charles Russell should have been the one up-front doing the teaching.

  Vdh, you are slipping, wt had CR resurrected in 1918, after a really short stay in she-ol, and he spirit co-directed 1919, 1925, 1975, and now 2075. wt illustrators should have him in the picture, hovering like a hummingbird over those trees.

  . technology with no support

  the millenium will be a 2 + class system, with printed, or hand copied hardcopy for the masses, but plasma screens for the elite

  i'd like to see them explain the overlapping generation teaching to this group

  perhaps a screen grab from David Splane's chart and pointer picture escaped the censors and could be used as a "teaching tool"? easy math: 2x 100=200 - (2x20) overlaps, = 160 + 1914= ~ 2075

  A natural timing for that resurrected old timer in the class from the era when a generation (when men became fathers) was 120 years.

  a far cry from the log cabin structures of past wt paintings , grey, greige colour schemes, wall to ceiling glass sliding doors. skylights, probably all manufactured by wt 1000 year slave labour.

  all resurrected students? no meeting of may be marriage partners at meetings. ha ha.

  burn with passion or marry only for survivors. David's penchant for married woman doused permanently.
