  Would God permit nuclear war?

  by JH in

  .

  by nuclear war, i don't mean 2 bombs like in japan back in 1945, but something much worse, like half of the population of the us being destroyed in a nuclear conflict.. probably jw's would say, no to the question because they think that their work of salvation is soooo important that god wouldn't permit their destruction..

  The Great Crowd

  was talking with wife a day or so ago and she asked me a question on the w.t.

  for sunday, it had to do with the annointed and malachi 3:17 being applicable in a modern day fulfillment and also for the great crowd, the question went something liek this "in principal, how is the great crowd part of the prophecy of malachi 3:17?

  well when opportunity knocks you had better open the door, so i says well turn here to rev 7:14 she of course had to read it too, so i told her there is no great crowd, has the great tribulation happened?

  OCT 1st WT SLAMS HIGHER EDUCATION.....AGAIN

  by Mary in

  not sure if this was posted yet, but the boys in bethel are at it again.

  the october 15th botchtower study article is, not so surprisingly, very negative and down on any parents that are encouraging their children to go to university.

  i don't have a scanner here, so i'll have to highlight some of the more vomitous (is that a word?

  Why would they say that? What is the goal?

  Perhaps to have brothers and sisters too uneducated to read the internet and then leave.

  man, if i don't solve this problem i'm gonna be dead one way or another.. i know i need to build self esteem.

  i am focusing on bringing things into my life that i find real fulfillment in.. i had little fulfillment as a witness.

  really only the pleasure i got from bible studies, of which i really only had about 10 real ones of.

  JB - I'm sorry not to have a good answer, but I know that if you can make it thru this you'll be grateful someday.

  I know it's not that helpful

  The 1914 Doctrine and The Threat of the Egibi Business Tablets

  by VM44 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  could the watchtower and the jehovah's witnesses survive the discarding of their 1914 doctrine?

  the doctrine that in 1914 the end of the gentile times took place, jesus took up rule in heaven.

  for some reason the jws think the outbreak of world war i in 1914 is proof their prophetic calculations were correct.

  Jeff - excellent point comparing the Darwin/missing fossils argument to the WT/missing 20 years issue.

  Thank you ScholarJW for proving VM44's point - your automatic response to his solid presentation was classic. In effect: "You must believe 607 and 1914 because it's bible based"

  The Egibi Business Tablets are indeed proof enough of the points VM44 was making.

  It's true. If you give me 100 men who believe that following my direction is an act of faith to god and they have some skills - I too will give you some remarkable results.
  

  "Now brothers I want a vat of Kool-Aid big enought to jump in."

  "How high sir?"

  "The right question is how deep"

  "Sorry sir"

  "It's okay, it will be over soon"

  "Can you give us a date?"

  "Well the harder you work the sooner the end will come"

  "OH BOY - I'm going to work on the vat FULL TIME!"

  "God will not forget your works brother"
