by claiming to be the sole dispenser of "spiritual food" since 1919 that frees them from anything published prior to that, potentially that covers ~ 6000 years of human bibliical history. Only their word matters for jws now. no w ay.

How do they get away with "New Light"?
by moreconfusedthanever inone thing that bothers me greatly is the fact that they can change their policies and beliefs and just say its "new light" and no one bats an eyelid.. there are many scriptures such as isaiah 40:8 "the word of god will last to time indefinite.
" or hebrews 6:18 "it is impossible for god to lie".
if he is "spirit directing" the borg then there should be no need for new light..

The problem with new light is not that there is new fields of knowledge that are illuminated. new facts discovered, but that wt claims their current knowledge is of divine origin, biblical (inspired) and holy, (spirit directed).
The Bible teach book to which content have to ascribe to or baptism, teaches that the wt teacher has the last laugh at the blackboard, teacher gives the marks. truth or not.

Wt is preaching the middle kingdom.
1) not the one of Colossians 1;13, --3) Not the 1000 year kingdom rule of Christ, , but
2) the kingdom of 1914, lasting only to the millennium, currently predicted to end not later than 2075. nowhere to be directly found in scripture.

How do they get away with disfellowshipping members for pointing out the flaw in the old "new light" and then, when that has been rescinded, not giving credit for the warning and automatically re-instating the whistleblower (latter day Joseph really) with honors?
This is going to come back and bite them, as it did the starving, humiliated 10 other brothers. . - if there was truth a talking snake story.

listener, thank you for posting the link to wt o7 15. -- What can be deduced from the text is, that wt has gone back to the interrupted Great Tribulation of past times. 1950s.
The tribulation will be halted to allow the final sealing and departure od the last remnant of partakers to heaven, and then the final attack on the remaining "Other Sheep" , The goats already having been consigned to Gehennah before? Wt calls these events having an "overlap" ( no kidding). Jesus' speech finishes with the sheep and goats though, as included in all these things.
Here is where wt has gone off the rails with it's anointed generation. because if the partakers go to heaven after the initial interrupted phase of the Great Tribulation, leaving the OS to take the brunt of the final attack, Armageddon even, They are not the Generation that Jesus spoke about in Math 24:34. because
Jesus said this generation will not pass away. wt contradicts that in your link. according to the society writers, , the anointed will pass away to heaven at the beginning of the GT. before the sheep are attacked, tested, judged, enter everlasting life. everlasting life not for false prophets.

Strip off the old personality
by eyeuse2badub inyesterday’s watchtower talked about how by becoming a jw it enabled “worldly” people to ‘strip off the old personality’ and make really significantly good changes in their life.. paragraph named 4 individuals (anonymous names of course and probably embellished tales)) sakura, ribeiro, stephen, and hans.
their lives changed for the good because they found god or because they became jw’s---right?.
so on the way home from this wt meeting, my wife commented to me how wonderful our brotherhood is and how it helps people who would otherwise be ‘lost’ n this world.

is armageddon starting ?
by stan livedeath inthe sky is so dark here in the south of the uk.
could be armageddon starting.. or then it could be dust particles in the atmosphere..

remember these winds are not the real thing, the angels are still sealing more and more partakers, enjoy the colours created by dust and ashes. Unless the UN attacks all religions, worldwide, paradise is not around the Armageddon corner. corny.
EverApostate: The sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light
anymore".happened in North America in August, a New Moon (no light) covered the Sun, for 2 minutes. enjoy the shows

There was no punctuation in the original text. so:
what watchtower really mean is, that the Good News of the overlapping anointed final (kingdom heirs) generation will be preaching/ be preached and then the end will come. Hope fully for wt by 2075, or it will be another false prophecy point against them.

Faith and the Bible.Is it all Just An Illusion ? With no basis in the real world ?
by smiddy3 inthe bible states that :.
"faith is the assured expectation of things hoped for"...." the evident demonstration of realities though not beheld" heb.11:1. looking at the "true" history of the wtb&ts and not the sanitized version jehovah`s witnesses like to portray nowadays ,nothing the jw`s put faith in ,in over 103 years of their prophecy`s , expectations ,whether it related to the world powers , the king of the north or the king of the south ,the united nations (which they joined for 10 years ) as the disgusting thing that causes desolation,their now acceptance of things they accused christendom of doing such as using atm`s for donating funds,(they never solicit for money){ excuse me while i puke} .all of the failed prophecy`s of the the end/armageddon/great tribulation and the end of false religion babylon the great and the list goes on and on and on.. 1914 , 1919, 1925 ,1975 ,the year 2000 ,and of course since 1914 any day soon , just around the corner ,its imminent ,in our day ,it cant be any more than 5 years away .. 6000 years of human history ended in the late 18th century .
oops sorry ,6000 years of human history didn`t end till 1975 and that is a date that would be appropiate for jesus christ to start his 1000 year reign.. excuse me , faith is the assured expectation of things hoped for ?.

The word faith is equal to fantasy. Meaning Bb.
That is true of religious faith, the word is even synonymous with "denomination" and their doctrine.
In the real world though, for example, millions of people rightly put their faith into the 4 ways , natural laws, that allow a wing to generate enough lift out of thin air., counterintuitive though it appears.

JW and their Governing Body , [self] appointed Faithful and Discreet Slave, of 1919, have faith, that they will continue to make divine "biblical history" ." New Books" in the "New System" and all.
Given the "historical" content of the bible, From the colossal Gen. 1;1 error, the talking snake story, offering of carrion, angels carrying on and resulting flood, ---
Jws confidently can have the assured expectation of these realities. more unbelievable stories to continue to be spun. -- current version?
last overlapping partakers will be raptured circa 2075, their bodies disposed off by angels like happened to the one of Jesus.--- no tale is tall enough.
