My Prediction Regarding New Space Telescope That Will See Back to 100 Million Years From the Big Bang

by Sea Breeze in

a new space telescope launched a few days age that will supposedly be able to see to within 100 million years of the big bang.

wow... only 100 million years from the big bang.

that is pretty early given the 12 billion year age of the universe assigned by scholars who adhere to naturalism.

waton

what we can extrapolate back into the past is that .

the matter in the universe was made from energy, and energy can not be created or destroyed, just converted. Matter had a beginning and "Big Bang" was just a term coined by Hoyle as a joke . Even as JW looks at older light of a certain wavelength, all it will show is, how it happened. It could have been done on autopilot no on hand fiddling, micro management necessary. So, no matter who did it how, a fantastic feat.

JW (the religion) even claiming credit for Jw (the instrument view)? but

It would not be wrong to think it was your father, starting life with mother was a great feat too, and feasible.

Jesus prophesied Global ''heat waves''

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

https://www.jw.org/en/library/.

keep on the watch!.

record-breaking temperatures worldwide—what does the bible say?.

waton

Even the everlasting wt paradise will succumb to the final heat wave, when the sun expands to 1 AU size, engulfing the earth a merre 4 billion years from now, an age, that does not even register on the eternity scale.

Elon Musk's starships to the rescue, for Mars, and more distant, cooler destinations.

Send Elon some wt tracts please. make him a publisher, Armageddon survivor.

JW "new light" immediately reversed/contradicted

by BoogerMan in

september 2022 study watchtower - par.

14 p. 18 - "after all, no one will be allowed to practice vile things in the new world.

the unrighteous must have practiced these vile things before their death.

waton

" bad conduct will not be allowed in the new system" could also mean that those really rotten apples, coming back, and having the recreated bad traits ( Poor J and j for having all that crap to memorize) , will in short order depart again.

If the millenium is an (ongoing) judgement day, judgement could be ongoing, as your resurrection court date comes up.

not predicting, just suggesting alternative talking snake plot.

predictions create predicaments wt should know.

Sanderson’s “Young People” convention talk

by FFGhost in

so did anyone else have the misfortune of listening to sanderson’s talk corresponding to the saturday morning convention program?.

full title is “young people - choose a path that leads to peace!”.

the basic idea is, hey you teenagers, you ought to be pioneers, wt construction workers, and/or bethelites.. i tried to put myself back in time an embarrassing number of decades…if i were in this talk’s target audience, how would i respond?.

waton

There another, now again religiously tightly controlled country, that wants to bring its young back down to the lowest level. telling, but not a record to be proud of.

Note, that wt has even dispensed with it's weakly sessions of their "Kingdom Ministry School" It was weak and weekly, nowe its zilch. sales training only.

Family division

by joao in

the worst part of my experience of getting rid of the shackles of wt is not the shunning.

i can live with that.

if people don't want to talk to me, there are many more who do!

waton

Joao, remind the good ladies in your life, that, as in today's daily text 1, II , 3 (1 Cor 11, 3) wt states, that your are the head of the family, no matter what your religious wt status. Its basic truth, like 1,2,3.

use that fact gently.

Do you believe that this life is all there is

by Fisherman in

the bible records resurrections and there is orher evidence besides that gives hope.

what do you think, is there enough evidence to believe in another life?.

waton

That is soo true! If they were resurrected, then why did they have to die again? St. Laliberte'

not only that, but it not seem to make any difference whether the ransom was paid and delivered.

If there is an automatic afterlife, why would this most important information, interview style, not have been provided after all the recorded bible resurrections.? After all, the story has snakes and asses talk, why would the newly minted "children of the resurrection" be mum?

Vivre la pensee libre, vivre Laliberte'

Can a Bank "legally" steal your $$ ??

by Terry in

jw
friends

when a bank fails, it is legal for that lending institution to perform a "bail-in" (rather than a bailout) for itself.. .

the first sign or signal to the depositor is a red flag moment easy to recognize.

the atm is "out of cash"..

waton

one way to protect your deposits is to have them in government secured accounts. (but with next to no interest returns in those vehicles, you're losing 10% in value per year, due to inflation).

Do you think the brothers who wrote watchtower articles are living in real world?

by Longlivetherenegades in

do you think the brothers who wrote watchtower articles are living in real world?........

david splane........ powerful by faith convention 2021 video.

please i got an excerpt of this from another video but the response by david splane is not included.

waton

Bible example: Paul, a bible writer, was not member of the Governing Body, but more of a field worker rubbing shoulders with outsiders.

Is that why Peter said he "finds Paul's writing hard to understand"?

Who really is the faithful and discreet slave?

by Fisherman in

“who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time?” — math 24:45. according to jw, the faithful and discreet slave are the “anointed” men of the “governing body” of the jehovah’s witnesses religion..

waton

Fm: Remember how Jesus told Peter to feed his sheep and Jesus wasn’t only referring to Peter.

Yeah, Wt writers for one, do not fit into the category of those that obey that triple command to the F&DS.

wt is the only religion that forbids the sheep The "one flock" to partake, to feed on the emblems. yet

These sheep are the 12 tribes of Israel, who are in the New Covenant, out of which the sealed 144 000 come. read it in Rev 7, 1-8.

wt is hiding the 12 pearly gates, access to the water and the trees of life's harvest. wt is not feeding the sheep. is too cheap to feed the sheep.

watchtower inc can not possibly be the F&DS.

The scriptures warn against slaves in Governing positions. Beware of the awl.
