  Great Tribulation and Trump

  by TakeOffTheCrown in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  please, let's discuss this subject without attacking one another.. it appears that trump has won a victory that no one expected.

  is it possible that trump may play a part in the great tribulation?.

  there are some who believe trump is one of the most unqualified of men to ever be elected president of the united states.

  cast down to earth at so late a year in history

  The irony of the original serpent eating dust all the days of his life. It is an allusion to the fate of the Satan in the last days. Seems that Satan had a penchant for the earth.

  WT never said outright that "the end" would come in 1975 but the literature and thinking circa 1975 implied that if it did it, the event would converge with Bible chronology; but the wt also concurrently published in the ASI book that the time of creation of Eve and the end of 6th Creative day was an unknown variable that was a factor affecting any conclusions about 1975. The wt has not backed away from 1975 as the 6000th year from the creation of Adam; wt still stands on the date, and if the 7th creative day is 7000 years in length, it would fit if the Millennium would start 6000 years after the end of the 6th creative day -so that 6000 years of evil + 1000 years of restoration and killing death ("death where is thy sting?") God can finally proclaim the 7th day as GOOD, same as he did with all the other creative days. It fits nicely IF wt chronology is correct. According to Genesis we are still living in the 7th day of Creation (7th day is God's rest day.) 6000 years + 1000 years= 7000 years= 7th Creative day= God's day of rest.
  

  -But wt never outright proclaimed that 1975 would in fact be the end. I never recall that.

  Just a thought since we are on the topic of the GT; since the devil has been cast down to earth, is t possible to go to mars or to the moon or to outer space to avoid being tempted by the devil; and did such astronauts experience any relief from the devil when away from the earth?

  Another Outright Lie Published 2/17 WT

  by LostGeneration in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  this info is from the article "who is leading god's people today" feb 17 study edition.. to help them disseminate bible truth in various languages, zion’s watch tower tract society was legally incorporated in 1884, with brother russell as president.

  * he was an outstanding student of the bible, and he fearlessly exposed as false such doctrines as the trinity and the immortality of the soul.

  he discerned that christ would return invisibly and that “the appointed times of the nations” would end in 1914.. pretty sickening article overall about how badass the gb is, though this little gem is printed as well, paragraph 12. the governing body is neither inspired nor infallible.

  . However, at that time they believed that Christ’s presence had begun in 1874
  Do mistaken ideas such as these -MSS

  There is no admission of error in doctrine in the above by the wt. WT has always said that CTR was off by timing and not by doctrine when challenged. Neither does the related WT study article referenced on this thread outright admits that wt HAS erred but only that wt can. Whether or not the wt has actually erred is left to the reader of the related article to conclude for himself.

  Fossilized foot prints, how do they explain it away?

  by Crazyguy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so there have been many sets of fossilized human footprints found in africa, italy, europe, britain and new mexico.

  these foot prints are thought to be anywhere from 20,000 to 2 million years old.

  so what do christians and jws do to try to explain these away.

  These foot prints are thought to be anywhere from 20,000 to 2 million years old.

  Actually, trillions of years or even older. The footprints "are thought" to have existed before the universe was formed. And nothing caused them - according to Krauss.

  Science can estimate the age of the substrate where the impression was formed.

  Given WT interpretation of the GT, the GT does not depend on dt, but on a generation that will not "pass way" "until all these things occur," coupled with a preaching work and an invisible kingdom ruling for a century + 2 years -according to wt. In relation to wt interpretation of the gt, something must give now with or without dt. Another 10 years of preaching the proclamation of 1914 and an invisible kingdom while everyone from 1914 is dead and humanity hoping only in technology and human intelligence, does not appear on the horizon for wt. Something must give, something must happen, or something must change -and I do not mean DT deployments to change the USA.
