How about this one:
Exodus 20:11 "for in six creative days of 7,000 years each, Jehovah made the heaven and the earth..."
1 Corinthians 14:34: "women should remain silent in the congregation. They are not allowed to speak except when giving a Ministry School part, Service Meeting demonstration, or commenting at the book study or WT study, but must be in submission, as the Law says."
John 14:6: "No one comes to the father except through his spirit-directed (but not "inspired") organization."
Deuteronomy 15:23 "You must pour the blood on the ground like water, or you can separate it into Watchtower-Society-approved "fractions." If you do that, you can go ahead and consume it."
LOLOLO! Some of those are pretty good!
I may have to add a page for YOURS!
1 Cor 14- appears to be referring to DIRECTING things; for female servants of God were ALWAYS vocal!
The 7,000 years for each "Day" in Genesis- is just a guess.
Care to discuss these- one at a time?
I will not get sarcastic- unless YOU do...
The 7,000 years for each "Day" in Genesis- is just a guess.
Actually, from one who lived thru dozens of articles discussing this, it seems your religious leaders thought it more than a guess:
Thus we see God’s use of the perfect number seven. The creative week consisted of seven days that were made up, not merely of hours, but of 7,000 years each. This means that each creative day was, within itself, a week of 1,000-year days. Following this master pattern, the nation of Israel was given a symbolic week of one-year days, with every seventh year being a sabbath rest for the land. This brings us down to the literal week of seven days, the seventh day of which was a sabbath in the nation of Israel. It was logical, therefore, that the fourth commandment should make reference to the great creative week of which the literal week is a small replica. - Watchtower 61 6/15 page 378-379
We could continue verse by verse through the entire period of the six creative days, periods of time that other Bible passages show to have been each 7,000 years in length - Watchtower 63 8/1 Page 460
” The Bible indicates that Jehovah created the heavens and the earth in six days, each 7,000 years in length. On the seventh day Jehovah rested from his creative work and entered into his sabbath. - Watchtower 67 7/15 page 427
Since each of the creative “days” or periods was evidently seven thousand years long, the whole creative “week” takes in 49,000 years.- Watchtower 73 2/1 page 82
Understandably, from their perspective, the insistence on 7000 year 'days' faded from the literature after 1975, which they were seeking to balance on this flimsy interpretation.
Embarrassed liars often begin to change their stories in mid-stream, eh?
