  Great Tribulation and Trump

  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.

  then being the honest loving caring person he was, he would have actually pointed to a time frame, and not be vague

  Your logic is flawed. If you do not believe me, study logic and compare to how you are forming conclusions -no disrespect intended

  @Fisherman. You have just made a huge contradiction here. You need to re-read your submission, in one breath you are saying you believe, then in another you doubt whether this is true?

  No, I have not. There is a gap between knowing and believing. Knowing requires some measurement of the evidence or witnessing of an event (you know for a fact) Belief is a conclusion, for example, eyewitness testimony about an event is knowledge versus those hearing the testimony and forming an opinion is belief. The later cannot swear they know such event to be true -only that they believe it is true. If you ever find yourself signing a Deposition or any other sworn statement, you will see the distinction made in the document.

  But , with respect to 1914............ is a belief, a conclusion sort of speak.... -Fisherman

  The WT has published that in 1914 "the anointed" "saw" "a sign," striking proof, remarkable evidence, that such believe corresponds with" the sign of Christ's presence" - or what turned out to be the beginning of the sign of Christ's presence. There are 2 aspects to this testimony: 1. "The sign" and 2. the conclusion about what the sign means.

  I believe that the testimony the anointed gives about the sign is true but I do not know if it is true for a fact because I was not there myself to measure it some way, but, I do know for a fact that wt and JW are backed up by God's Holy Spirit and that is what I am convinced about with certainty.

  Although the wt is non-political, they are a huge and powerful organization with millions and millions of supporters globally. IF the wt is found to be doing something improper or wrong by international court standards of what is just and proper, wt will be compelled to change and wt will have to change. There are entities in High, High positions internationally that are investigating the wt child abuse matter objectively and will determine what is just and proper irrespective of what some nation, etc feels wt should do. If these investigations against wt turn out to be a gimmick propagated by wt haters, etc., -it will backfire.

  It appears to me that DT kicked a lot of people out and replaced them with people of his own liking. The former had been serving themselves with the big spoon, and being now in a position of having to do things someone else's way - they don't like it none. And they want DT out and want someone else in so they can have it their way. Such forces want to push things again their way. If that is the case, such will scrutinize and rebel against every effort DT makes that they do not like. Maybe it will die out and everyone will pull in the same direction -but who knows because change is on the way for sure.

  as the appointed F&DS, to stop the brothers from selling their houses,

  Anyone at that time reading the literature and listening to the discourses could only conclude that the FDS believed 1975 was the "finish line."

  “he will—maybe unintentionally—break laws.”

  Trump's political inexperience is obvious but all he needs to do is to surround himself with experienced politicians that are running the country already - and maybe listen to them, which seems to be the case from his remarks about Obamacare, etc. AS for breaking laws, all people in High Office break laws and get away with it, except when they happen to be an unpopular target -like Trump for instance, I say, give the man a chance. We will see effects soon enough.

  Most people that voted for Trump know that he said a lot of things with the purpose of getting elected and also know the limits of his power when sitting in the seat of power -but what Trump said reveals his thinking and the direction of his policies when elected and that is one reason why people voted for him. His voters believe that he can only do what he can which is a lot more than what his opponents were going to do. It is very revealing to see what people want and the people voted for the many things TRUMP SAID. If the people did not want the things that Trump said he would do, they would not have voted for him.

  Are you sure you didn't mean Phallacy?

  No, I did not mean Phallus see. I meant that your posted conclusions are false. See for yourself.
