2022 - 1914 = ?

by fedup in

obviously not the orgs brightest moment for teaching that the generation of 1914 would be alive to see paradise.

forget the "new light" that bought them an extra 100 years, which if any other religion would've done this, the org would scream false religion.

the fact is that for 75 years this #1 recruiting message from the society was a lie.. i asked a current jw to get a calculator and do the math: 2022 - 1914 = an angry reaction.

- rehab- the generation teaching go away will take some work- I think they made a big mistake trying to rehab it with the overlapping generations. TonusOH.

No, it is the Anointing of the generation, in the second fulfillment that is fundamentally wrong.

The general population of old ladies in okinawa, southern France will live to 2032+ no overlap required.

The only generation in the wt fulfillment, (which is the second coming) is made up of those that somehow survive Armageddon, but die in the final test on the 4 cornered earth. because,

!) they have to die, pass away after the end time prophecy is fulfilled, and/but

2) can not be the sympathetic Sheep, because they pass into "everlasting life" so,

a rehab will only result in a a really convoluted pretzel.

better to scrap the whole thing, not even to recycle the waste.

Truly I say to you that this generation will by no means pass away until all these things happen. - Matt 24:34 NWT

tbn: so, the generation has to pass away after armageddon right? or?

well the 1914 generation of wt writers are now the anointed, partakers. but,

when do the anointed have to pass to heaven, according to wt prophecy? think about it, they will fight at the battle,so"

for anointed partakers, the onset of the great tribulation is the latest for rapture time

the wt generation prophecy is so bad it does not allow time for Armageddon, their most pivotal event, when comparing jesus to wt wording .

fu: current jws do not do analysis. but wt writers have dug themselves into an even deeper mess, when they declared the generation to be the anointed.

That meant that at the starting point of 1914 they had to be at least 21 year olds like Fr. Franz's example -- to be counted, as D. Splane pointed out.

Only a few Okinawans, Sardinians and southern France lady citizens would make it past the year 2000. none of them the stressed jw faithful, putting in 15 minutes per month.

Is it okey to express your love for Jesus currently as a Jehovah's witness?

by Kosonen in

jw
friends

is it okey to express your love for jesus as a jehovah's witness?.

it should be, even though it would lift some eyebrows in the congregation.

let's see what jesus said:.

waton

Is it because JESUS knew that his name was,--salvation--. bolds added

S3, are you arguing that Jesus hid the most holy Name, even in his private conversations, to push his own name into later prominence, but wt promoted the father's name later?

imho, the Jesus character is depicted as highly respective of the holy name, him even using "eli" in his last plea to heavens. Eli sounding to me very similar to the later term allah.

I love the way Jesus never used the Name of his father, as in the text you cited and all others.

it took 10 days from Jesus' ascension to Pentecost to get confirmation that message to & from heaven had been received (the ransom value).

It took wt writer ~30+ years to discover and correct/ reverse their bloober on the superior authorities.

are you saying that now JWs only study the WT magazines (digital ones) while at the kingdom hall, and that none obtain paper copies

DJW. no, I am talking about the quick revisions that happened in the 50s and 60s, we bound our own volumes to retain the unabridged juicy stuff. Today some seem to still have wt paper copies but also being on zoom. Moscow's pravda or twitter et all are not the only variable truths available, it is alive and well in the brave wt " New World Society."

ThomasMore, by "they are redacting former writing as fast as they can" what exactly do you mean DJW,

Even if you have bound volumes, they will not read as the wts that were "studied" verbatim at the KH. In one instant on "porneia", it had all changed even before the foreign language copies were distributed.

What are the benefits of doubts?

by psyco in

what are the benefits of having created the human mind being able to have doubts inside (or regarding) the true religion (jude 22)?.

because if you have doubts, you are not sure, so it is difficult to believe and trust.

and if it is difficult to believe and trust, it is even more difficult to have faith since it is the "assured" expectation of what is hoped for (hebrews 11:1).

waton

For example, 'I doubt I can take that hairpin bend at 100 miles an hour'. jjj

right, many aeroplanes stall at that speed in a turn. and spin in.

Sea Breeze21 minutes agoI doubt there is any real benefit.

do not be too sure. If you doubt that the scriptures are more than just that, the best that men could write at the time, you will be protected from the inevatible realisation, or lack of it, that your confidence was misplaced.

I f you doubt, you will act with enough restrain and have taken a position to fall back on at all times.

without a doubt, doubting will double your decisions to be a-droit, right, one day.
