  "You too must logically reason

  "And third, you need to confirm BB

  did not the first "truth" criteria of the article involve a literal interpretation of the bible? anyway

  in all three cases, the wt puts the responsibility on the R&F to establish the truth in their minds. in other words:

  brainwash yourselves, true believers. so:

  1) the bible is not literally true,

  2) the bible description of the creator is only a caricature.

  3) with 2 fundamentals wrong how can the "true org" claim be right?

  Knorr --- was an interested observer of current events." That would account for the WT's "predictions."

  Bc; yes, avid reader of Time magazine, not tea leaves.

  The Himmler story is bazaar'

  rtn: yeah, wt wording gives the impression, that Luebke, a Jw , freed from the camps was talking to the "reichfuehrer", who was also on the run, and as a result of the jw's. revelation, HH committed suicide, not so, The SS leader killed himself ( like Goering) in allied custody

  by cyanide poisoning, biting on a capsule, hidden in his teeth, to escape worse fate.

  Interesting that wt wriers mention not to leave the "truth" because of th wrongdoing of some pioneer, elder, but are silent on the failings of wt doctrines.

  Jw inmates in the KZ "--camps did not know all prophecies?--" some did not know the new, wrong position of Brooklyn on the 'superior authorities' . it was hard to stand up for death not because of Brooklyn's teaching but in spit

  Did you know that there were more witnesses in Germany than the US at that time? with the guillotine in full fall, and Rev 20 true, The axe of the axis power gave bible fulfilment.

  Rev11:18 non religious fulfilment

  i took "the truth" because of this one text, unknown to me: .

  "god" will destroy those destroying the earth.

  religions have trotted out the deluge, tower of babel as precedents, that never really happened.

  so, making this a blog for natural events that were made divine in the bible, or sacred book of your choice:

  Every morning and evening, at sunrise and sunset I see burning bushes on the horizon. "burning" in different colours, depending on the smoke content from the forest fires.

  Sun shining through the branches, leaves sets them ablaze., yet they are not consumed. Tomorrow the bushes more to the south will light up.

  Now, -- did I heard voices? no.

  "More than Solomon is here", indeed, by a ratio 1/ 144 .

  Terry,I based my reply on an old "experience" by a CO in a catholic country, who in the hh work addressing a nun as "Miss" like demoiselle, was told, that the she was "married, to JC". so, he pulled out the Magazines, and said: " well, here then is a message from your husband".

  David Splane's 2020 Conventionl talk ....''Jehovah has to come first''

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  '' has your desire to put jehovah first been tested during this pandemic?

  you lost your job and you searched for another one.

  finally, after a long search, you found one but it was a job that would require you to miss all your meetings and field service.

  David Splane, who was one of the many pioneers that came out of the then resources - rich western Canada to work in the Eastern, Quebec battlefield, probably never had to rely on the 'Society's' , or even local donor money.

  having been burdened to sell the 'overlapping groups generation' to the R&F, he clearly did not relish this task, hinting that wt writers, strategists still hope to finally hit it Big, when their schemes will align with world events, hopefully divinely directed.

  i was never a jw but i lurk in this forum occasionally, trying to rescue some family.

  i will spare you those details.. jw.org and jwfacts are there with youtubes out the wazoo but i would appreciate your thought on this.. i know there are contradictions plenty but this is foundational, blatant and current.

  i know they typically just blow off.

  this still current Watchtower mythology? VdH

  Have not read anything to the contrary,

  The heavens were cleansed in the struggle starting in 1914, and once clear, heavenly resurrection started.
  Peter, Paul and Mary, helping to formulate the wt campaign:

  " The world has ended. - Millions now living will never die".

  Now waiting for the remnant of the anointed generation to join them, battle, ready, dressed as a bride, not later then 2075.

  wt writers follow "the Lord" very closely, when he sits down on the right hand, , then stands up, then sits down again for judgement.

  Is it really possible to read that fine a distinction into the phases of the F& DS, parable, or allegory that in mho, only by scribal choice ended up among the 10 virgins and the sheep and goats.?
