i came across this article written in 2004 by an evangelical.. “when did jerusalem fall?”, rodger young, journal of the evangelical society [jets], 47/1 (march 2004), 21-38.. http://www.rcyoung.org/articles/jerusalem.pdf .
these are the conclusions of the 18-page analysis.
(1) jerusalem fell in the fourth month (tammuz) of 587 bc.
Seems very nonsensical to me that anyone would try to reasonably pinpoint a specific year that took place 2,600 + years ago! With all the calendar changes over the centuries, lack of reliable historical dates or dates based loosely on some event or someones birthday it's a fools game. It's fairly unreliable to go back even 100 or 200 years and establish a definite date. But then faith is blind, deaf, and DUMB!
just saying!
it's seems that even the revised edition of the book revelation: it's grand climax a hand was wrong again.. in the 2019 agm david splane "clarified our understanding of the prophecy recorded in joel 2".
clarified?
you mean he done a 180 reversal.. from revelation: it's grand climax a hand page 143, para.
Damn it would have been entertaining to have Splane try to ex-splane how the gb came up with this "new clarification" of the locust by using some charts and graphs with 'overlapping' understandings from Mad Freddy thrown in just for emphasis!
In other words, all the shit the wt shoved at us for decades was just uneducated guess work, they had no idea what any of those fantasy stories and visions meant! lol lol lol And you can't ex-splane the unex-splanable!

so with the news that they are remodeling patterson and expanding warwick, where are the funds going to come from?.
could this be a ruse like the need for thousands of kingdom halls proclaimed a few years back only to be replaced with the we realized the halls were not at capacity and the great sell-off began?.
maybe the hope is going to be that the sheep will give give give and then all of the sudden, after prayerful consideration the gb have determined that the current resources are sufficient to create the needed media and content.. my bet is that in 10 years it will all be consolidated to warwick and walkill and patterson will be sold to who i have no idea, but they own a ton of property in upstate ny..
Jehovah will provide! Or the gb will ask the sheeple for money! lol

would jehovah kill her?
or would she be shunned by her religion as a whole?
say anything you would think of..
Didn't Jeptha's daughter have a better fate that Lot's 2 daughters? Lot's daughters had to 'witness' jehober turn their mommy into a pillar of salt, lol,lol, and then they were both probably so traumatized that they screwed their daddy and both of them got them pregnant from daddy Lot! Wow!
Of course Lot was innocent because he was totally drunk during both incestuous encounters! lol-lol

the annual meeting (2019) is happening as i am posting this.. any comments yet or information from what is being presented?.

Oh that's right, it was the annual anal meeting!

Was it the annual meeting or the anal meeting! Or is there any difference?

with the ramped up rhetoric the last few years many were totally convinced the end would be here by 2019-20 .
and instead of making due, the org.
has burdened the brothers once again to donate and volunteer for the new and improved patterson and video production center to be completed by 2026!
I graduated in 1965. My math is bad-----so how many years is that for me? I have too many really important numbers in my head like 1914, 1919, 1925, 1931, 1975, 2000, 7 x 360=2,520 years, you know all those important numbers!

Mythology has some wildly interesting stories and characters for sure!

last sunday's watchtower tells the story of a man who:.
was baptized in 1908 at the age of 20. he was very confident that he would soon receive his reward.
in fact, when he proposed marriage in 1911, he told his prospective bride, pearl: “you know what is going to happen in 1914. if we are going to get married, we better do it soon!” did this christian couple give up the race for life when they did not receive their heavenly reward in 1914?
I spent 6 decades inside the borg. However, I have to admit that after 1975 I never put my full effort into it. Today, I'm perfectly content knowing that one day I will join my ancestors in death. I'm truly puzzled by some of my lifelong friends that still seem to be captive in the borg. I often wonder if they really believe the bullshit from the borg!
"You will know the TRUTH, and the TRUTH will set you free!"

since they’ve announced the dates for the next 3 memorials, no talk about this “may be our last one!”.
since they’ve announced the patterson construction project will take 3 years to complete.
let’s also not forget when they designed warwick, they spent money on expensive energy saving technology to save millions in the long run, years and decades in the future.
The Great Tribulation must be at least 3 years away
Actually it's 3 1/2 years away. I know because I measured the tRump Tower in New York City and came up with 2,520 tRump inches. Then I divided 2,520 by 60 (the number of minutes in an hour) which equals 42. Divide 42 by 12 (the number of tribes in the nation of Israel) equals 3.5 years. I could be off by 1 year because A.D. 2020 ends with a zero so I'm not sure if that means that there is no zero year in my calculations. Easy peasy. Should I post a chart to show how easy it is to understand?
Look out for 2023 (unless it 'overlaps' 2024)!
