New light in this weeks WT?
by Indian Larry inanybody have any ideas where they are going with the "new light" they have been pushing last week and this week?
for instance in this weeks study article one section reads:.
in years gone by, we believed that jehovah became displeased with his people because they did not have a zealous share in the preaching work during world war i. we concluded that for this reason, jehovah allowed babylon the great to take them captive for a short time.

What if Fred Franz had never existed?
by Magnum inwhat if fred franz had never existed?.
those of you who weren’t around in the days when he was the oracle of jwdom or who at least aren’t familiar with the deeper publications he was responsible for probably won’t be able to comprehend the significance of the question.
i believe he influenced jwdom greatly, and the whole feel of jwdom would have been different without him.. during the 60’s, 70’s, & 80’s (not sure about 50’s), he was considered to be almost superhuman by some (a lot?

If Freddy had never existed
Kruschev would not have been secretly reading his books
The Cuban Missile Crisis would have brought about WW3
As his dormant paciifist leanings would then have not caused him
to back down,
Forcing Jehovah's hand to finally wake up and bring on
Armageddon
So that we would now be hugging Pandas and using live koalas
As throw pillows

"simply a result of the misapplication of the organizational guidelines"
Meaning: WE WERE PERFECT WE DO NOT APOLOGIZE FOR ANYTHING,
Indeed a poor workman who blames his tools!
More accurately a matter of throwing the scapegoat (the Branch) under the bus!
Truth was this was a long standing mandate from "The Good and
Righteous Judge"
Who famously abandoned his own wife and son, the family no one knew about,
The founder of Jehovah' Witnesses, serving Jehovah the founder of all
families
Who left His name people to the instruction and care of this man!
And now The Wicked Judge was dead!

I think the CO just knocked on my door.
by schnell ini can't be too sure, because i didn't answer, but my mother had called me this morning and said this week is our co visit.. it's been a while since i last had elders at my door.
last time that happened, i posted about it, so it was only a few months.. i really don't want to talk with them.
is there a chance i'll be announced as "no longer one of..." after he's left if i don't?.

From what I can make out you don't have anything to worry about if they
don't get the idea you're living /sleeping with someone they don't think
you should
Or have Cupid saying let me be your valentine on your front door,
A reminder:
Don't talk to them, it's "I'm having personal problems I really can't talk" and
don't say a thing
Express yourself elsewhere!

Correct we if I'm wrong but I see absolutely contrary reasoning in this article which asks:
"Would I patiently wait on Jehovah, or would I be inclined to take matters
into my own hands?"
This man went against what the Branch (the Society) was
strongly suggesting (Don't marry) and did what he thought best
Great!
So why can the Watchtower bring us to the above "point" when it is
the exact OPPOSITE of what the man did?
