You don’t know what they think. Besides, the proximate cause of disqualifying conduct is kindly mitigated as PTSS for example. He did serve in VN as I highlighted before. And that can be taxing

YES I think they are stupid.

Nonsense. It is axiomatic that nobody gets deleted from the gb unless they don’t qualify anymore. JW know this.

How to debunk the 1914 calculus ONLY using JW publications?

by psyco in

i remember having read somewhere, but i cannot find it anymore, that it is possible to debunk the 1914 calculus using only jw publications, like "insight on the scriptures" (chronologies) for example.. do you have any sources about that to suggest to me?.

thanks..

But if you disregard it, then it **becomes** an issue.

How does concluding that Judah went captive to Babylon for 70 years and Zion lay desolate for 70 years, The 70 years ended when the king of Babylon saw the handwriting on the wall goes against grammar? The verse you reference includes the nations but the subject matter of the neviim is the punishment of the 2 kingdoms: vs 8 of same chapter referring to the Southern kingdom.
If you disregard the rest of the Bible you can construe any grammar as you like.

Most witnesses have their heads in the sand. No one is batting an eye at this.

You think they’re stupid? Obviously, no one stops serving unless they no longer qualify. Everybody knows this unless they are “new in the truth”. The real reasons why a person is removed may not be disclosed unless a lot of people know about it.

Grammar is not the issue in Jer 25:11. It is the context and interpretation. The wording of the base text allows 70 year desolation of Judah.

Sad that the R&F have NO IDEA this is going on

As usual those that do, do and those that don’t, don’t. As when someone
gets sanctioned inside the cong for wrongdoing or for not measuring up or being irrepressible, the real reason gets out because people gossip.

There is no grammatical argument necessary as a plain reading of the text and its context suffices.

That is what I’ve been saying all along with and without WT commentary. It was mrmustard that raised the grammatical issue. I use the Hebrew text in Soncino Books of the Bible. I also like to reference the commentary from a rabbinical point of view and not christological works because they usually stem from the false premise that Jesus is God Almighty and applying that to interpretation.
