  New light and confessing to congregations.

  by asp59 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  2017 - wt: the gb is neither inspired or infallible and can err in doctrine and organisational matters... clearly gb have received biblical information about things that been done wrong.

  not from god directly, but letters received at headquarters.

  if important new light about biblical matters have come to the gb attention, why are they not telling the congregations about that information?

  Are you talking about bringing certain false teachings to their attention via letter, and being told to wait on Jehovah or something to that effect? They've heard it all, and in some level they already know.

  They know the blood ban is a product of Rutherford's time that can't hold up to biblical scrutiny, but too many have been affected so there's no way they can reverse it.

  They know that the understanding of the earthly resurrection and 144,000 is outright contradicted by the Bible, but too many members have there hopes tied up in these.

  They know 1914 is based on shoddy research, but the urgency of the last days and their very 'appointment' in 1919 depend on it.

  Even if one of them had doubts, there's nothing they can do about it. They're too far painted into the corner.

  GB 2021 Update #10 - "get vaccinated"

  by neat blue dog in

  am the turd comes the closest to just coming right out and telling jws they have to do it.

  he says, 'there's no need to worry, just keep doing what works: wear masks, wash your hands and get vaccinated when possible'.

  the busybodies are going to be even more insufferable now than they have been.

  HowTheBibleWasCreated:

  It's apparent you only have a superficial understanding of what the vaccine is, somehow conflating it with acknowledging the existence of germs. In fact, up until this year it couldn't rightfully be called a vaccine (Miriam Webster had to change their definition to fit it.) I'm not saying it's dangerous, but there are valid concerns that "the experts" (really only a select few that are allowed to give their opinions) cannot answer outside of blanket, unwarranted reassurances.

  Agree about the isolation part, it's terrible what's being done especially to kids, in that area.

The busybodies are going to be even more insufferable now than they have been. They're emboldened, because the vaccine is now official doctrine.

  Just how much of a dramatic FLOP is this NEW LIGHT?

  your opinion, please, on the above video.

  1. before jesus, humans were judged either by the law (jews and converts) or by natural law (noahide law).

  I'm sure there'll be a lot of confused PIMI's, it can't be just us noticing this. There'll be the usual WT study article based on this talk, but they might add some more information and caveats and make it seem like that's what they always meant to say.

  It's beyond crazy how I took this stuff for granted when mentally in, especially the things in the children's books.

  Funniest insults

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  1. social
  2. humour

  so, i was wondering what are the funniest insults i've heard/been called.. the woman who taught me the arabic alphabet did a lesson about insults in colloquial palestinian arabic.. the one that stuck out to me was iniqbir or ini'bir.

  literal meaning: bury yourself.

  "go and bury yourself".

  Interesting thought, but they might not want to touch it so as not to offend anyone.

  Snowman at assembly hall

  a few years ago i built a 6 inch snowman on a picnic table at the assembly hall.

  just whimsy during lunch, no one was out in the cold.

  i thought maybe some kids would get a little enjoyment.

  as many probably remember, in 2018-2020, multiple kingdom and assembly halls were set on fire in the state of washington, so fbi, atf, local sheriff and arson alarm foundation offered $61,000 in rewards for information leading to arrest of the arsonist.

  the attacks (seven arsons and one shooting) included:.

  march 19, 2018: two arson attacks - one at a tumwater kingdom hall and the second at a kingdom hall on cain road in olympia.
