  ward at ill ac.

  Imagine it there was no talking snake , the whole thing made up, as the bard would say "much ado about nothing" ?

  A for effort though.

  recently, in the past few months, and this only applies to in dubs who might have taken note, the watchtower study edition made a change.

  it mentioned the “warning work” where dubs are going to march around and proclaim everyone is going to die.. anyway, this article said it was now only a possibility, not a sure thing.. i can’t find it.

  did watchtology change it already?.

  since , according to current wt doctrine all anointed partakers , most prominently the eminent Governing Body cum Faithful and Discreet Slave will at the onset of the Great Tribulation depart for heaven, the wt organisation will be on auto pilot, and

  may be another virus outbreak at that time will confine all wt warriors to the barracks again. Anyway, according to Jesus' words, non of this will happen as wt predicted, because he is reported to have said,

  that the generation (the wt anointed) will not pass away, to heaven or the other place after and until the Gt and sundry other signs, events have occurred first.

  God is faithful to his word and he will give every human being the opportunity to find him. GB.

  "God will destroy those destroying the Earth." Rev 11. so, look at your actions and determine your fate.

  Everybody has a long list of complaints against the Bible, against Jesus, against God. But are they valid and who decides? Fisherman,

  note that Van der Hofen's list is not beefs against the scriptures, but deal with the ever changing "light" S.F, emanating from Columbia Heights. Brooklyn, War wick. NY USA. and their instance to remove dissenters, even if the objections raised, corrections suggested, are later taught as true food in due season.

  the simple truth about wt's 1914 prediction was, that they fully expected to go to heaven at the onset of that great Tribulation.

  wt still predicts that, to happen, with a new overlapping time line, not later than 2075. trouble is,

  Jesus nowhere mentioned any of that. He said instead, The generation will not die until everything is over, has passed, not the beginning.

  wt and 1914? wt is wrong, coming and going. from A to Z

  "It is entirely mundane that God’s kingdom is a theme in Daniel " Jeffro the scholar

  Wt writers perplexed me with mundane food*. The diet of grass the crazed Nebuchadnezzar ate, unprepared (still remember the unkempt emperor's hairdo, at ground level).

  How wt twisted the meaning of that episode into the symbol for the "Kingdom of God being abased between 607 and 1914" is an incredible feat. imho. it is an degrading insult that can only be excused as the product of twisted minds.

  * pertaining to the mouth,"Mund" in german.

  my nephew called me sunday night to tell me that his nine year old son was giving his first talk.

  he gave me the zoom i.d.. and password for his congregations in-person tuesday night meeting.. i haven't been to any meetings in nine years.

  many things have changed.

  There was a footstool for the kids to stand on. great for reading skills. audience contact skills. problem is, if you are not of the right clique, the same person might be still only reading 10-15 years from now. and without saying anything meaningful after the reading, unlike Jesus in the synagogue in his home town,

  Of course a truly meaningful comment would ban you from ever reading up front again, like what happened to the carpenter from Galilee.

  This word implies the entire planet including the heavens.

  yeah, I was confident that all the infrastructure that Nasa was building on Merritt Island FL, would never produce an event that send a vehicle, or human beyond the Earth dominant gravity, The Earth, that confined "Satan" --- onto the moon, venus, Mars and beyond.

  so much for biblical relevance, guidance by wt writers.
