131975 to 2075 a family story.
by waton ina fictional, composite tale of many true elements from a city called bostronno.
a young family man from a devout jw family was swept away in the late 60s by the enthusiasm to be in paradise by 1975. it all started at a book study with some very sincere and serious bible study members.
he turned his branch of the prosperous family business over to his brothers, and searched for a place to serve the rest of the old system's time out- in comfort and where the need was great.

according to the bible even a flat earth might not be a circle but have 4 corners. Proves that the bible is just another conspiracy product to keep the masses occupied with nonsense.

A fictional, composite tale of many true elements from a city called Bostronno.
A young family man from a devout JW family was swept away in the late 60s by the enthusiasm to be in paradise by 1975. It all started at a book study with some very sincere and serious bible study members. He turned his branch of the prosperous family business over to his brothers, and searched for a place to serve the rest of the old system's time out- in comfort and where the need was great. Frankly, he wanted to avoid the panic scenes of Armageddon disasters pictured in the children's books of the Society, so he picked as a suggestion to support a struggling congregation way up north.
Build a comfy getaway place on a lake, boat, and all. Then, early 1072, a winter storm paralyzed the region, just as their supplies of the means to limit their family size, -- ran out.
9 month later, on Oct. 4, 1972 at about 12 am ***, sister 'quiet needgreater " delivered baby unplanned.
Later, after 1975, the family sold all these assets and moved back to Bostronno, strengthened now with the hope that comes from endurance and the realisation that Armageddon was now even closer, and resumed their normal lives. Enjoyed many occasions, like when Br. Franz came to give special talks in sports venues rented for the occasion, letting unplanned talk to him, and kind of bless him. The weddings that Governing Body members attended, to be with extended family members, friends they had made in Brooklyn while at Gilead. and
The many memorials, with the full moon shining on the family, as their elder father enjoyed the late get togethers, even savouring the leftover partaker's wine and crackers.
Young unplanned became an early true and profound believer, steeped deeply in the highest aspect of the faith, and developed a desire to be part of the top of it. After his baptism in about 1988 at ~16 and finishing high school, fulfilled the family's ambitious pride to apply for Bethel, and being considered. In the meantime he also had developed a sincere desire to partake. Not just in secret, but officially , expressing publicly his aspiration to move unreservedly to the top service privilege.
His Brooklyn time was cut short however, about 2 years after Br. Franz's death in 1992, when he got married and his wife was not considered as a bethel member. Great beauty does not always also mean spirituality.
Br. unexpected, is now 45, raising a family, is prosperous, fondly recalls the great memories, the smells of bethel, the occasional meetings with the dear old members. He is battling his midlife crisis, though holding on to the partaking and the upward call.
He realises now that he is one of the overlappers of the anointed generation, and, that if he hangs on, like his "good genes" grandmother and father, -- will live to 2075, given the very healthy life and stile he had.
He is in no hurry to quit this fine life, and reflects on the many sheep that will yet be saved until he and his generation will go to their reward.
Some details have been changed to protect the innocents.
*** many important numbers here, of portants to come: beginning of October, start of many bible events. 4, 7, 10,12

Do CO's get a check each time they have a convention?
by suavojr induring our weekend convention with the co i noticed he gets his expenses paid for.
my question is if the co then summits another expense report on the following day?
the circuit is split in a and b, so therefore the co meets with the other half the next day.

It appeared in the 50s, that all the work that went into circuit assemblies, cooking meals, and so one went to pay for the circuit overseer,s car. But the on one occasion a brother asked a circuit overseer to look for a used car at a dealer's lot, while he signed for a new one for him in the new car sales office.
like all wt finances, the less you know the better, to keep your blood pressure normal.

Billions die because fruit was eaten. Please think about this.
by pleaseresearch incounties once at war with one another can forgive and move on.
even horrible murderers who killed the family members of someone can be forgiven for the act that they did.. but god, no no no.
no such thing can happen.

In folklore, the implication was, that seduction was involved. When we could show them from the bible, that procreation was a divine command, the reply about the "apple" often was, "arretez donc a chantez la pomme." stop talking about the nonsense of the apple.
the public was not buying it, it was the symbol of ultimate made-up story, but
for wt believers, it is a deadly serious joke.

Matthew 24:34 not fulfilled in the first century
by Jules Saturn ini was discussing with an elder the generation teaching and telling him when jesus christ says in matthew 24:34 “truly i say to you that this generation will by no means pass away until all these things happen.” he was referring to the generation from the first century in 33 ad and these events that were to take place took place with the destruction of jerusalem in 70 ad.
now the elder tells me to go back to a few verses to from verses 29-33 which read: .
“immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun will be darkened,+ and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.+ 30 then the sign of the son of man will appear in heaven, and all the tribes of the earth will beat themselves in grief,+ and they will see the son of man+ coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

the generation to which Jesus himself belonged.
exactly, he was the only anointed present at that conversation, wt's singling out the "anointed" is strained, even before overlapping. All present people move through time contemporaneously.
thank you for pasting that, just saying, not fully endorsing.
I find these discussion meaningful. That does not mean though that the basic premise, that The Earth was created at the beginning, or there was a talking snake, which is basic to all the biblical development should be taken seriously.
commenting but not endorsing.

These are the last men and women standing of that last generation, not what wt has made of them the long departed anointed generation.
