wt writers believe they have inherited "Peter's keys" to the kingdom [of 1914]. and that god would have to oblige by untying the knotty problems in which they got tangled up in, here on earth.
wt bought property in Brooklyn prior. in 1975. r&f, bought, sold, mortgaged to pioneer or live it up, seriously though,
many true believers made great sacrifices, pot in an all out final sprint, no holds barred.
here is a brother who really thinks that elders are there to help him after admitting that he cheated on his wife.
his conscience is bothering him to the point of letting elders know all the details of his affair.
( his affair should have been private, between himself and his wife ).
Shepherds are the most dangerous class of people for the herd. they are the once that make sure they flock is slaughtered, fleeced and do not escape.
Of course they tone down internal conflict, stressed sheep do not gain weight or produce. but in the end, the sheep illustrations are are powerful hidden message to the wise.
it so happens that my grandfather and i share the same birthday; -- this month.
i lived with him from 1930 to ~ 1947. so, following the parenting pattern in our family, he would be born, be alive by ~ 1880, the same age as the "watchtower magazine" , therefore, you could say, we both lived in the wt era, right ?
dare we say we belong to the wt generation,?.
So it's just the org playing with numbers Fa -62.
yes, D.S. is in the chart charade using overlapping centenarians to push the end to 2075, but citing already old GB members to prove how close Armageddon, paradise is.
"last of the last days" in today's wt comments, but 175 years life for Abraham.
keep your protection, your money, for wt is sometimes right, "religion is a snare and a racket."

ike Methuselah, supposedly living for almost a thousand years.dtm:
These very chaste people, did not have sons unul they were 80, 120 years old! but now, as mentioned in the OP, ---, with 20-30 years "overlap" , and condoms handed out in some primary schools---. anyway,
wt magazine is ~140 year old, In my family. people living to nearly 100, a 30 year overlap each to make a 2 group wt generation.
If groups dont overlap (or use contraceptives) they dont generate the next generation.
I think David & co was pulling our legs. still does.

believe it or not, David Splane has set up the setup for another "75" namely 2075.
do the math, two 100, 101 year olds, overlapping by 20 years each, ( like Fredrick Franz ) = 161 years plus 1914 = 2075.
1925 was a nice year too, with Abraham living in california.
wt,s high fives.

Our lives certainly overlapped, we just belonged to different groups.
Do you realize that David Splane's overlapping centenarians ( Fred, Franz like oldsters) will cover a similar time span like our family? his wt generation from 1914 to 2075?
It is great to have spend time in this universe.
PS: In another write today I misspelled watchtower as watch rover, a freudian slip, wt writers are certainly all over the time scale, always have been, if you watch them.
The final scene of "Carry on Nurse" comes to mind. D. Trump now playing the victim card, if he recovers, the conquering hero role.
some never recover, permanent brain damage.

given his age and weight, he is at very high risk of needing to be hospitalized.. trump is arguably the most well-protected man on earth, and he got it.. people.....wear a fruggin' mask!.
It must be very re-assuring for Americans to know that their next president has acquired immunity to that plague.
hopefully it will have a sobering effect on him ans his' too.
in a disgusting new video, anthony morris iii talks about apostates, and brings to mind his 'hot dog' talk all over again as he anticipates the demise of ex-jehovah's witnesses.
i don't know if you're familiar with maggots, but when you see a whole bunch of them it's not a pleasant sight.. .
what a fitting picture of the final end of all of god's enemies.
may be because of this, -those on a counter current-, have removed the phrase " spirit directed" J - organization from the baptism question.
change the spelling from 'orga niza tion' to 'orga nazi ton'.
the switch has already happened. sadly.
they have predicted this for years.
religions of the world would become attacked by the governments.
the only difference is when they go after jehovah’s witnesses, then jehovah god will step in and destroy the governments..
how about places where religions a-r-e the government? or state religions? or the state is worshipped as god?
stately suicide?
