Governing Body-Part of Great Crowd

by TakeOffTheCrown in

it appears that the governing body members today are part of the great crowd and are not of the anointed.. to those with some knowledge of the subject, is it possible that the christian congregation would eventually be lead by those who are not anointed?

.

SGoE: Shortly before the GT they will be taken to heaven for their reward along with all others of the anointed. After that there will only be OS/GC left on earth. so:

The great crowd is really the generation that Jesus was speaking about when he said the the generation would not pass away until all these things, ( GT, Armageddon Judgement of goats) has happened. and,

while, according to this wt theory, the anointed GB can not be of the GC, it definitely is not the generation, --save yourself the overlap.

unless of course the GC really ends up in the heavy heavenly temple, Naos.

so, according to wt. the bodies of the last anointed (called to heaven ) will be disposed off by angels, like the Jesus episode. will we ever know wether they will die because of judgment als part of the false prophet? and then the Other Sheep Governing Body will take over? the very ones that were writing, filling in, all that weird stuff about overlapping? bonne chance.

Today's W.T on GB not being inspired is having ZERO impact on most J.W's

the congregation i attend had it's watchtower study on thursday night because of l.d.c work this week-end, and another congregation i have some not very spiritual friends in had their watchtower study on wednesday.

from what i have delicately prised out of people, the congregations loved the watchtower study this week, saying it was so encouraging and all the usual stuff, with no-one seeming to realise the g.b.

said they're not inspired, so the spirit int he past has moved them to teach wrong things, and all the other ideas excellently summed up on reddit.. today's watchtower will wash over the heads of most j.w's like it never even happened, the all remaining as loyal as ever, and it makes me so, so sad..

It seems there was no wt study of this in Canada's congregations. . Instead a wt talk talk beamed in, from Toronto. Par. 12 glossed over with the mind controlling rhetoric, Even hiding what little facts there are in the mags.

That is why the anointed generation is wrong, the generation is supposed to survive all these things, not disappear before the end. in other words the idea of an anointed generation, concocted by gb, Fds are all fake, Scripturally speaking.

PS: the generation (if there was a talking snake) are the sheep going into everlasting life, not the overlappers that reach the 2075. centennial.

Surprise Adam and the writer of Genesis.....

by James Mixon in

it's possible human were living in southern calif 130000 years ago.

yes young people were surfing at the beach, snow skiing down the mountains unaware that adam and eve believe they were the only ones on earth...lol.

waton

Yes young people were surfing at the beach, Yeah, that having two on the same wave would not be tolerated the, and now, that is how the tribes were driven down into central America beaches, fighting about the swell, curl.

How long can a fig leaf last in that turbulence?

Has China Already Become the Equal of the USA - superseding the Knorr/Franz March of World Powers?

i would personally say, this was going to happen, but not quite yet.

but then i noticed this recently published story in the south china morning post (a newspaper once owned by rupert murdoch, but now owned by jack ma, one of china's richest men).. quote:.

how china has become america’s equal, as showcased at a harvard forumauthor: robert delaneyon the campus of harvard business school this past weekend there was little doubt among corporate leaders and investors gathered for an annual conference that china had arrived as an equal to the united states.keynote speeches, panel discussions and a business pitch competition at the 20th annual harvard china forum convened under the theme “sharing the road ahead” in english.. and, i got to thinking about donald trump's reversal of all the things he said he was going to do to china in his campaign speeches, and the reality now that he acts as president of the usa.

To cement this overlapping claim, China now controls de facto all the islands in the South China-, aka West Philippine sea. The philippines are a past Colony of the US, so it is here strengthening its claim as the seventh World, since the territorial claims of China and the Philippines over lap. see post 2 above. ha ha.

Would human settlement of Mars invalidate Bible prophecy?

by truthseeker in

i don't think this topic has been discussed before but yesterday i read something to the effect that trump wants a human mission to mars to be completed within his presidency.. with that being said, the watchtower teaches that what started on earth ends on earth, in other words, the fall of adam and eve would end with the passing of the 1,000 year millennial reign when christ destroys all his enemies, rebellious "perfect" humans, and the devil and his demons who are let out the abyss for a short while.

he then hands the kingdom back to his father.

an elder in my old congregation once told us during a public talk that he was an ardent astronomer but then referenced the scripture where it says, "the earth he has given to the sons of men" (psalms 115:16).

waton

He will destroy this present universe and create a New heaven and earth

do not take that too seriously, he did not flood the ancient Heavens and Earth either, Everest, kangaroos and all.

The status quo will go on in wt land. China is just an extension of the Anglo American world power, Hong Kong, the Boxer rebellion quelled,-- the same way that Britain is considered an extension of the Roman Empire, the bath, Hadrian's wall and all.

the way the Watchtower explains it is that the 'vicinity' of the Earth refers to the whole universe

new to me, any references?
