  Governing Body Update #9...Jehovah is guiding his people during the pandemic

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  david splane starts off with, ''i thought we might reflect on jehovah's goodness and the way he's been guiding his people during the pandemic.''.

  not once in his talk does he mention that jehovah would give all members a super immune system that would fight off the virus.

  neither does he mention that jehovah would reduce positive covid-19 numbers, hospital admissions and covid-19 deaths of his people.. mr. splane: how does the almighty, all knowing jehovah guide his people during the pandemic?.

  Recent Annual Meeting - Asking for Clarification

  by truth_b_known in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  would someone in the know please clarify for me some alleged comments given from the governing body at the recent/yet to be streamed for the rank and file annual meeting?.

  it is my understanding that samuel herd basically tells the rank and file that old light is new light and the new light of july, 2013 is now old light.

  to be specific, herd states that the official stance on whether or not the annointed remaining on earth, to include the governing body, will all be in heaven prior to armageddon.. at this same annual meeting tony morris iii tells those in attendance that stephen letts' statement that "we're living in the final part of the last days, undoubtedly the final part of the final part of the last days!

  At this same Annual meeting Tony Morris III tells those in attendance that Stephen Letts' statement that "we're living in the final part of the last days, undoubtedly the final part of the final part of the last days! Shortly before the last day of the last days" may not be true. Morris goes on to state that it may be awhile before Armageddon gets here, we might not live to see it, but that's no reason to give up because "this is the best life."

  It`s amazing how they ignore what the religion has said has prophesised ,indicated ,expected in 1914 , 1919 , 1925, 1939, 1975 ,2000 , and now they indicate it could all be in the distant future,?

  Give me a break !!>>>>>>> If the R&F haven`t woken up to the shenannigans by now ,then I have little sympathy for them.

  I say little sympathy ,because I do understand that elderly people who have put so much time and energy not to mention monetary investment into the religion over decades ,would find it very hard /difficult to abandon it now ,yet that is what they should be doing and cut their losses.

  And live out the rest of their lives accepting our lot in life in freedom from dictates of men.

  Didn`t they also proclaim or infer that Armageddon and the new system of things would take place around the end of the 20th Century ?

  And by now we would be in the New System of things ?

  a few years ago i built a 6 inch snowman on a picnic table at the assembly hall.

  just whimsy during lunch, no one was out in the cold.

  i thought maybe some kids would get a little enjoyment.

  There maybe about half a dozen (6) friends here that I exchanged cards with in the past that I don`t have a postal address that I can send a card to this year ,which I would like to do .

  If you would like to receive a card from me just pm me your address and it will be done.

  So far I only have eight (8) to send .

  Anybody is welcome to receive one if they send me their mailing details.

  Cheers, smiddy3

  After all it is the season to be jolly .

  Sheesh Gary, it shows by your photos, just how popular you are ,i`m envious.
