  Hebrew Was The First Language

  by Bloody Hotdogs! in

  2. bible

  according to the newest watchtower:.

  jehovah communicated with adam in the garden of eden, using human language.

  god likely did so in an ancient form of hebrew.

  When someone starts with the viewpoint that humans have only existed for about 6,000 years, you can only expect the conclusions drawn from there to be idiotic.

  recently a lady i knew in china who contracted a rare virus, a sickness from which few chinamen ever survive.. .

  in china the woman was shifted from hospital to hospital with no one being able to treat the disease.

  eventually she was taken in by a hospital in shanghi.

  The first image in the lame story isn't even from China. It is from Japan after an earthquake in 2011.

  i have just recently started talking to a family member who is leaving the jws and i wanted to know what are the best sites available these days for finding out all the topics of information - failed prophecy, 1975, rutherford's drinking, russells tombstone - you know all of that kind of stuff.. back in the day there used to be a site run by a norwegian i think called kent.

  my mom called me yesterday to ask how i was doing.

  i hadn't seen her in a while, so it was nice to hear her voice.

  we went through the motions of jw small talk and then she started telling me about her co visit from last week.

  Soon, very soon, their way of worship will be altered.  How soon?  Sometime between April 18 and August 10, 2015 as Neptune lines up in 9 degrees of Pisces.

  No. Just... no.

  Magwitch:

  OMG!  It is hard to imagine that this is the same religion that Russell and Rutherford were a part of.

  Why not. They celebrated Christmas and birthdays too. Christmas was only banned by Rutherford in the 1920s, and birthdays weren't banned until years after his death.

  Separation of Powers:
  

  She then reminds me how much Jehovah loves me and the urgency of the times.  She says, "The brother said that the GB want us all to know that soon, very soon our way of worship will be altered by this wicked world."

  Their 'special announcements' are never particularly exciting.

  If their previous form is anything to go by, it's probably another Kingdom News 'campaign', though it could refer to yet another nutty change in doctrine.

  The 'GB' is basically just making it up as they go along.

  Or it could just be speculation based on gossip.

  Jw still believe 4026 B.C.E as Adams creation...?

  by thedepressedsoul in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was doing some "research" and came across jw articles that all talk about 4026 b.c.e as adams creation.

  it even went as far as to state, "there are no actual records of ancient man, his writing, agriculture, and other pursuits, extending into the past before 4026 b.c.e., the date of adams creation.

  since the scriptures outline mans history from the very creation of the first human pair, there can be no such thing as prehistoric man.

  DesirousOfChange:

  Have not seen that mentioned recently, but have not seen it retracted either.

  It was most recently mentioned in 2013, in the revised edition of the New World Translation, appendix B2.

  Did God establish His Covenant with the Gentile Nations or the Jews?

  by sowhatnow in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  im not sure where to post this but i think its telling.

  not long but read it closely i get a bit confused on the latter half.

  the question is did god establish his covenant with the gentile nations or the jews.. [though i have read from a jewish web source, that the jews have nothing to do with israel and the greek scriptures or half the hebrew scriptures ].

  No.

  Well... that was easy.
