He says that recent info confirms that the UN is no longer considered the Beast of Revelations. Anyone can confirm?
here is some of the chat:
CUT
Eduardo says:
you guys went to memorial yeah?
Ellis says:
in artesia for a few years because the co wanted him to move their and help out
Eduardo says:
I see
Ellis says:
of course
Ellis says:
ours was early
Ellis says:
i didnt invite joann this year because shes got tattoos and body piercings hanging all over
Eduardo says:
yuk
Ellis says:
she said she would have gone. just hung a sign for sale
Eduardo says:
I went but I had fun because I deliberately didn't wear a tie. I have had it with ties, they are something that needs to go out with the 20th century. no more ties for me unless absolutely required to wear them like for a job or court
Eduardo says:
oh is she selling her business?
Ellis says:
not yet
Eduardo says:
diana wore tight black pants and a red leather jacket. the baby was dressed in a dress though.
CUT
Eduardo says:
crazy, where do you post or lurk?
Ellis says:
but everybody gos awe and they dont mess with me
Eduardo says:
I participate on Jehovahs-Witnesses.com
Ellis says:
perfect huh
Eduardo says:
It is a cool site but very anti-JW
Ellis says:
i know
Eduardo says:
what do you know?
Ellis says:
i cant see why antis would want to post or be on jw site
Eduardo says:
they feel wronged, hurt, don't have a life, lots of reasons.
Ellis says:
if you dont like smelling shit.... why are you surfing in it
Eduardo says:
Mostly I am moderate in my viewpoint
Ellis says:
let it go
Ellis says:
i think some just want to influence others
Eduardo says:
that is a funny saying, did you make that up or hear someone say it?
Eduardo says:
nothing wrong with influencing others
Ellis says:
yea i understand some people brought up in it
Ellis says:
but if they cant come to peace with it now get out
Eduardo says:
well I am still working on my site
Ellis says:
i was discussing the blood issue with workmate and i told them if the person could not agree with jws dont go. find another church
Eduardo says:
many might if they could leave without repercussions. With the new OM book saying that one can be disfellowshipped for being inactive which is what it basically says that one who is inactive is not going to be considered one of Jehovah's Witnesses....
Ellis says:
thats the thing about going to the hall nobody makes you go
Ellis says:
every time its time to do time. i ask elva what lies should i make up now
Eduardo says:
yeah but what if someone accepts everything but the blood issue...and then 10 years from now the blood issue is changed to allow all blood both fractions and whole parts as a matter of conscience?
Eduardo says:
that is funny
Eduardo says:
do you turn in time?
Ellis says:
hopefully somebody hasnt died during their time
Ellis says:
yea ive tried not to but the brothers come up to me and insist even if i only incidental witness for fifteen minutes
Eduardo says:
that's crazy
Ellis says:
so i do a lot of witnessing a t work
Eduardo says:
its insanity
Ellis says:
and i claim a lot mags because i bring them to me to the wt study and hand them out when people forget thiers
Eduardo says:
well things are changing. I do believe they will be different in 10 to 30 years from now, very different in the Organization. It is too bad that Dad and Mom won't live to see these changes but then again it is probably good cause they might be devastated.
Eduardo says:
I am sad that I am not going to get to hang with them for their Golden Anniversary and that they declined our invitation to , I really wanted to take mom before it gets to late.
Eduardo says:
ROFL at your last message, that is hilarious
Ellis says:
i gave a reading number two about a month ago and i actually read the script better than the po that went over the bible reading for the week. the brothers were more impressed so they said
Ellis says:
i give great talks but because of my low service time and yes being constantly late, i cant be used much
Eduardo says:
I have been there
Eduardo says:
not much you can do, just do your own thing and be happy, someoneelse doesn't like they can kiss your butt
Ellis says:
i dont think we have to worry about the changing thing much longer
Eduardo says:
why?
Ellis says:
the mayan calendar ends sep. 2012
Ellis says:
theve been right on lot of predictions
Eduardo says:
yes, I know, remember my whole Life in LA about that
Ellis says:
i dind read it
Ellis says:
seven years of tribulation begins this year
Eduardo says:
well it was last year. I can email it to you again. I found out another coincidence relating to that date
Ellis says:
it s started with the pope dying
Eduardo says:
are you SERIOUS?
Ellis says:
yes
Ellis says:
were not suppose to speculate
Ellis says:
but even the world knows
Ellis says:
may not get bad here
Ellis says:
us is relatively safe but alot of things have been already hapening around the world
Eduardo says:
let me ask you a question that I have been thinkng about for a while and maybe you are more in touch wiht what the latest literature says: Is the UN still the Beast of Revelations according to the Society or are they backing away from that teaching?
Ellis says:
no not anymore
Eduardo says:
So the stuff in the Revelations Grand Climax book is already Old Light?
Ellis says:
the beast of rev is the world society including govts and religions
Ellis says:
yea the un thing started a lot of problems
Eduardo says:
what UN thing, you mean the Society's NGO membership? That was actually no big deal.
Eduardo says:
Embarrassing maybe but not the major scandal some have made it to be.
Ellis says:
what they are still sure of is the religions will be destroyed first and then they will go afger jws
Eduardo says:
Are you sure that the UN is not considered the Beast anymore? I hadn't seen that anywhere officially.
Ellis says:
thats the thing most didnt know about it
Ellis says:
we had a wt study like two months ago that kind of dealt with it
Eduardo says:
If you find the cite send it to me, I want to look into that issue.
Ellis says:
and another one like three weeks ago that toouched on a new of view ofthings in perspective
Eduardo says:
Are you sure? You better ask Elva
Ellis says:
yea
Ellis says:
i can look for it. it was not worked up much
Eduardo says:
I don't believe you. I would have seen something on the Net for sure. Mary hasn't sent me magazines in a while so I don't have the latest.
Ellis says:
kind of just slid in. in fact i met the po in back of the hall on the way out and discussed it with him
Ellis says:
i said i had never seen it like that although its been there
Eduardo says:
Well of course not. Let me ask you another question. Didn't Mom not get to graduate from high school in because her paper on the UN being the Beast was rejected and she didn't get the credit? That is what she once told me.
Ellis says:
dont know
Ellis says:
dad said she didnt grad. she said she walked with her class
Eduardo says:
I want confirmation on the UN thing. I won't believe it tell I read it in the WT myself.
Ellis says:
ok ill have to look for old mags in back of elvas car
Eduardo says:
She told me once that she didn't officiallly get her diploma because her teacher failed her for writing the UN paper.
Eduardo says:
yeah another placement
Eduardo says:
can you count placements to a disfellowshipped person? that's a thinker for you
Ellis says:
just when we put them in baskets at walmart after loading up groceries
Ellis says:
if they pass from my hands to theres i dont care if i give it to osama. its a placement
Eduardo says:
Ellis says:
they know how much are printed so they expect so much to be placed
Eduardo says:
ok well you better stop procrastinating and go work out
Eduardo says:
actually that is another quick question for you , someone on JWD asked whether the numbers reported in the KM are numbers of Placements or numbers of printed? Is the answer number of placements?
Ellis says:
well ive been waiting for elva and chole to get home from eating dinner so i can let her know i said i would wait for her. but not here yet
Eduardo says:
oh ok
Ellis says:
placements are listed on service time sheets
Ellis says:
i usually just leave them lay9ng around at work
Eduardo says:
yeah I know that, so the KM numbers are just a tally of th etime sheets right?
Ellis says:
yes
Eduardo says:
that's what i thought, when the Society talks about circulation numbers though, they are talking about actual printing right?
Ellis says:
probably. circulation of newspapers are number printed
Eduardo says:
let me ask you another question. If you weren't a JW would you vote?
Ellis says:
yea
Eduardo says:
Or do you think it is pointless anyway?
Ellis says:
i tell other people to vote they say why are you telling me. i say because i cant so you should
Ellis says:
they ask are you a demo or rep i say niether theocrat
Eduardo says:
that's funny
