20Lessons learned from the wife of lot drama
by purrpurr inthe video drama shown at the recent comvention was called "the wife of lot".
i noticed some stuble lessons being taught in this soap opera style video.... firstly, all the bad influence comes from women, its the wife and the mother in law whose pushing for more money and a better lifestyle.
while the men remain loyal to god, can't show the men going astray now can we?.

heart attack. They are on thin ice if the basis of their theology is him living into his 90s.
NY44M: Their theology demands constant urgency, a 911 call for Sanderson would be good news for wt.*** The anointed generation is ending! but it is the lean types like Fanatical Franz hidden in the woodworks worldwide that mean it really is set up to go past 2075.
WT's goal is not to have another 075 debacle.
*** and for "Jesus". sanderson: I am coming !

honesty
by midnight inregarding the recent 1975 video at the convention it hit me !.
when reasoning with people about the inspiration of the bible we used the bible writers candor ie/ there honesty when recording bible accounts about there personal mistakes .. how come the governing body despite its claims to be spirit directed are not honest about there mistakes ?.

...honesty when recording bible accounts about there personal mistakes .
WT errors are not personal mistakes. They are fabrications, their responsibility compounded by multiple acquisition. Even by our spreading them in the past.

My jaw dropping OMG moment at the end of the convention
by UnshackleTheChains inyes folks.
over the past few days i can honestly say the convention was relatively quite good.
most of the talks, videos, symposiums were in line with scripture if you have faith in the bible.

UTC you said: So, contrary to what the GB are telling us, all 18013 in 2016 did the right thing. They are all correctly partaking as Christians should. The so called mistakers are in fact bravely rejecting ...
NO, IMO, partaking at the "Memorial" venue is accepting the conditions wt imposes, that you are a candidate for kingship. priesthood. It would be better to celebrate privately, if you believe you have to consume be saved.

thank you all, just replaying the David Splane video chart, wt will be able to claim that they warned the r&f that a 2075 begin of the 1000 year kingdom was their teaching.
You have to accept current wt teaching to be a jw in good standing. We paid workers had to that pledge,
Message of judgement? wt gambling to boost their image by riding the wave of tension in the world, making themselves appear relevant?
If the life that is clinging to the thin layer on the surface of this globe means anything to a possible creator, he would act out of necessity.

Speaking of the 144,000...................
by The Fall Guy in...........why would an all-powerful christ, whom the bible describes as having been given "all authority", need 144,000 other king/priests as "helpers" to run his universal organization?
(matthew 28:18) .
1 corinthians 15:25 - "for he [not 144,000] must rule as king until god has put all enemies under his feet.".

If he lives as long as F Franz did
Thank you, and please listen Listener, David Splane admitted there can be longer serving anointed, being younger in 1914, not 21 like Franz, dying later than a mere 98, and younger, longer living, second group anointed overlappers too. Also,
The generation is not comprised of GB members only , but are any and all of the "sealed" remnant. so: 2075 looms large.
Anyone has the age of current local partakers?

It would take 25 times more energy to go 100 instead of 20. wt would like that, no energy left to ask intelligent questions. and
that one wire spoke , with the nut at the top, representing the true religion, invisible at that whirr.

let me correct myself, a reborn overlapping Franz would be 45 years old today. , with ~ 53 years to go.
Placing it back into the original's lifespan: today would be equivalent to 1939! -- 56 year left to the 1975 beginning of the millennium. now: 57 years to 2075. disprove it, or swallow hard.
