Zambonis, luxury this and that, bills paid.

You are all a bunch of untheocratic JUDA$$e$.

Do you remember the woman who poured an alabaster bottle of genuine nard on Christs feet? (It was worth a fortune)

When Judas Iscariot complained about the waste of money that could have gone to help the poor - Jesus said "You will always have the poor with you. What this woman did will be remembered forever."

The beloved Faithful and discreet Slave will not be with us forever. How can you be so ungrateful for the never ending efforts of the faithful Gibbering Buddies to control our lives and save us from ourselves, from our ability to think logically, from deciding how to live our lives??

Jesus enjoyed his erotic foot fix, let them lust after the athletic bodies in the volleyball court. Soon they will all be dead

Forever.

I bet the WTBTS is behind this "Anonymous".

They cant openly oppose him because they have thier own axe to grind - their motives would be obvious.

Having followed Bowens and Barb Andersons effort for years, I would trust them rather than a coward who will not reveal their identity.

Question This Weeks Study Article

by turtleturtle in

in this week's study article of the wt (11/15/12, p. 17, paragraph 6) it says does not single out the annointed for the scripture "we are god's fellow workers.

" (1 cor.

does the wt consider the "great crowd" fellow workers with god now?.

Translation:

So get your sorry a$$es out in door to bore misery and get u$ $ome money.

The give away is the word WORKER.

Suppose a scripture says "We are all sons of God united in one baptism." They would sure as hell spell out that this doesnt apply to the 2nd class Christians in the Borg.

the latest wt of september 1 2005 has another example of what i now call "the rug pull" where words are used cleverly to blame the flock for their own flagging spirit.

the mag is "why it pays to be loyal" (not good or kind but that's another thread.

the setup comes on page 16 para 13: .

Witnesses Not Budging on 1914

by stevieb1 in

just attended the sunday of the zealous kingdom proclaimers district convention in manchester, england and during the final talk we had an update on the world situation as it relates to jehovah's witnesses.

the speaker was peter ellis, a member of the london bethel branch committee.. he stated that many had been waiting for armageddon for some years and some have become disappointed that it hasn't yet arrived, and that newer jw's did not seem to have the same degree of faith as some of the old-timers in the faith, hence this was of serious concern.

then he said something along the lines of 1914 being set in stone and that the organization was not going to get any new light on this key doctrine, hence we can be sure that armageddon is very near.. interesting don't you think?

The protestations that this will not change are too much methinks. It is misdirection of the sheeples attention, whilst they add a grain at a time the foundations of a seismic shift.

This guy - is he even still alive? Id hate to be the holy ghost with my hand up his a$$ like a ventriloquist.

Necrophilia and fisting. Eauww!

"Strong hope enables us to resist apostates and their gangrenous 'empty speeches.'"

by cedars in

those obviously aren't my words, they are from the latest study edition of the watchtower (april 15th, 2013) page 11.. .

it's nice to know that, not only are we "mentally diseased" - we are also now "gangrenous.

" since the society seems to enjoy using medical terms to insult us, are there any bets what the next published insult will be?

Wait a minute!

That photo of the gibbering buddies-

Wasnt there a Witchtower a while back with a picture of another african-american who had just been appointed to the Crooklyn papacy?

I remarked at the time that he looked like the cat that caught a canary. Did he die or resign?

GB sidles out of 1919 and puts 1914 in the bin. (WT study.)!!

by hamsterbait in

has anybody noticed in many recent watchtowers that christ is now said to have "turned his attention to the earth in 1914.".

unlike the 60's they do not say christ "came" in 1914. the "proclaimers book " p137 says the bible students came to discern that "christ did not return, (even invisibly), in 1914.".

the way is now paved.

In my SPOOF post of four years ago, all the elements mentioned have now been printed in the litterature.

Once 1914 is forgotten, they can then go about sweeping their embarrassing circumlocutions about the false date of 607, and claim this was only believed by those who did not understand the "evidence".

Then when "Gentile Times Reconsidered" comes up, none of the sheeples will have a clue what Johnsson is talking about.

"JW never said any such thing". (I have already heard old timers reinterpreting the 1975 propaganda)

The prelude to dropping the generation of 1914 is in the "Greatest Man" book chapter 111. it is a classic example of how the witchtower makes an apparently straight statement which means something else:

"In fact, the end will occur within the lifetime of the people who see the fulfillment of all the things Jesus foretells."

The ALL is what this turns on, as many of the parts of this discourse have now been shunted into the future. Talk about a long preparation- this was published in 1990!

Nathan Natas highlights the quote from the Proclaimers book. What is interesting her is that the Bible Students did not realise they had been living in the last days since 1914 for many more years - they still printed the Studies in the Scriptures that stated the Time of the End started in 1799.

Strong HOPE? HOPE? What would anything the Witchtower says do to inspire hope?

Hope in whatever they tell you at the time, despite 140 years of dashed hopes and failed promises.
