RED ALERT FOR JULY 15TH STUDY on SUNDAY!
by The Searcher inin the very first paragraph, matthew 13:38 is to be read - "the field is the world; as for the fine seed, these are the sons of the kingdom; but the weeds are the sons of the wicked one..".
jesus speaks of only two groups, so if you accept the wtbts "anointed" doctrine, then if you haven't got the "heavenly hope", then you've got no hope!.
simply put, there aren't any 'other sheep' members of jesus' "one flock" mentioned, unless of course theyare also "sons of the kingdom", but of course, that would be ridiculous!!.

you'd think that before they tell everyone what new light is and who goes where in post armageddon world that they'd at least inform the big guy how many to expect for tea..............all this generation twaddle and partaker muddle is just one big mess.....perhaps the gb need to be tucked up in bed with a cup of cocoa and a cookie....out of harms way to the rest of us........as for listen obey and be blessed..more like listen obey and be stressed........

Truly, Raymond Franz was a brave man! Please see quote...
by ILoveTTATT ini think that raymond franz, he was part of the "medicine man" and he got to know it was false.
he was brave to denounce the falsehood.
i just hope that one day the gb has the courage to come out clean... this is an ironic quote, considering it is part of an article designed to go against vaccinations, implying that the "medicine man" knew that vaccinations were a hoax, and it would take a courageous person to denounce vaccinations.. in reality, vaccinations work!!

Raymond Franz was a man of integrity who saw through the sham of gap filling doctrines...he was treated shamefully by his peers who should have been ashamed of themselves. his C of C book is simply brilliant...refreshingly candid. shame current elders/lurkers/overseers don't read it and have their sense of perspective retuned...

July 2013 WT Sunday ? Who is now the FDS ?
by Legacy incontinue on wt july 2013...a question to all...so, the congregation gets fed spiritual food by the fds (past & now), right?
the great tribulation and beyond.. but the article says, the fds will not come until after the un will attack christendom, jehovah will cut short the attack on false religion; god's people will be saved, then...jesus will judge people of all nations as sheep or goats, then.....jesus will appoint the faithful slave over "all his belongings ....so, have the fds been appointed as of yet & if not who has been given the congregation the spiritual food upto now...i'm confused...no i'm not..i do understand...i think a bunch of guys been feeding us.... i spoke to one of the sisters & she said, that jesus will appoint the slaves & give them additional duties...uh ?
the floor is open...will welcome all thoughts..... legacy.

Do you believe God is using the governing body to lead his organization?
by Zoos inwere familiar with the statements about how a persons claim to be anointed is between that god and the individual.. the governing body went on to say: "a number of factorsincluding past religious beliefs or even mental or emotional imbalancemight cause some to assume mistakenly that they have the heavenly calling.
we thus have no way of knowing the exact number of anointed ones on earth; nor do we need to know.
the governing body does not keep a list of all partakers, for it does not maintain a global network of anointed ones.

the whole thing is a web of corporate deception foisted on well meaning publishers etc....chopping and changing ideas and beliefs to suit/justify their own position. in the 30 years + I was in I have seen doctrines come and go. the generation fiasco and the are they or are they not the fds/annointed bluffing game have exposed the society as nothing more than men wandering in the dark...looking for new light switches..........!
