I just had a revelation about the org.
from watching splane's chart: They will close the door to the anointed ones again.
This is what my gut tells me.
guess the overlapping generation concept is difficult for most to comprehend.
david spane does his best to explain it again.
the cutoff date for this generation has now moved to 1992 (was once 1935), the year that fred franz died.

Splane says we should give a scripture that can say how much a generationis, here it is:
Mathew 1: 17 Thus there were fourteen generations in all from Abraham to David, fourteen from David to the exile to Babylon, and fourteen from the exile to the Messiah.

@ Israel Ricky Gonzales
You brought up a very important point: That Jesus linked the time of the end and "this generation" with Daniel's 70 weeks prophecy.
Mathew 24:15 has as a reference Daniel 9:27. Daniel 9:27 speaks of the last week of the 70 weeks of Daniel.
The jw's say that last week of the 70's weeks already took place in the first century.
Many bible researchers say the 70's week will be in the future.
From Daniel 9:24-27 you can see that there is a gap between the 69 and 70 week. The jw's do not recognize this gap.
If you read the whole context you can see that during the last week a short term - 7 year "covenant" is made by a price of the country who comes to destroy Jerusalim, but he breaks the covenant at the half of this period of 7 years.
The wt even changed the verse Daniel 9:27 to make it appear more that the covenant is made by Jesus and support the fact that the 70th week already took place. NWT States “And he will keep the covenant in force for the many for one week; and at the half of the week, he will cause sacrifice and gift offering to cease.
While NIV : He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven.’[h] In the middle of the ‘seven’[i] he will put an end to sacrifice and offering
around the 39:00 minute mark the focus shifts to a single sister who cannot find a mate.
at the 42:30 minute mark she states "i cannot believe it crossed my mind...to look on jw dating sites".
guess a new unwritten rule is added to the many oral traditions of these pharisees.

They used to say that a prophecy is better understood while it fulfills.
Instead of admitting that they were wrong about 1914, they keep coming up with crazy forced tentatives to explain this falsehood originated in pyramidology.
to see how many years a generation is they should read the genealogy of Jesus in Mathew, at the end of the genealogy it says there were 14 generations from Abraham to David, 14 generations from David to Jesus.
Jesus said that generation when all happens will certainly not pass. Truly! I believe Jesus!
I have to contradict you. For them, who are prophesying the end for 100+ years, the sun coming up every day is a curse, not a blessing. It proves they are false prophets.
i have noticed that the jws are participating in meetings organized by the osce.
they are registered or participate under the "european association of jehovah's christian witnesses".
one point highlighted in this organization is tolerance.
.. in institutions is needed.
it needs to be done as soon as possible.. and i need you to help me.. i need someone, maybe more than one person, to draft a template, for a letter to the white house.. it has to clearly state that the usa is falling way behind many other countries, in terms of protecting children in institutions nationwide.. it has to make this clear: .
both australia and the uk (independent inquiry into child sexual abuse in england and wales, see here: www.csa-inquiry.independent.gov.uk/about-the-inquiry ) are currently investing large amounts of time and financial resources to research the best possible policies to protect children, across all institutions, religious and nonreligious.. they are working to expose the failures of various institutions, that have not reported child abuse, or have even covered it up... why are the united states of america not doing the same?!!.
i'm wanting to set up a youtube channel exposing what goes on at meetings and the hypocrisy that goes on.
trouble is i'm not exactly welcome at the meetings if you know what i mean!!!
i was wondering if anyone out there in uk or us could let me have a khconf number and pin so i can record parts of the meeting and expose them on the tube.
i find strange the wt study articles where they say how we should feel.
and tthe q to the public is : how might we feel when ....
and you have to answer like it's written in the paragraph.
Like they tell us how we should feel .... very strange ....and inhuman
a lot of people, ex-jws, believers and unbelievers alike, think that jw's are just a somewhat kooky brand of christianity.
is it possible to "try and follow jesus" and not be christian?
what exactly makes someone a christian?
From what I know KJV has some verses deliberately changed to sustain the doctrine of the trinity.
Even them changed those verses back in newer editions of KJV ...
