  Why is there a large cat in this picture?

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i wonder if anyone can explain this.

  ezekiel 34:25 says .

  and i will make a covenant of peace with them, and i will rid the land of vicious wild beasts, so that they may dwell securely in the wilderness and sleep in the forests.. the land is said to be rid of vicious wild beasts, so why does the watchtower picture in the new pure worship book show a large predatory cat on the tree in this picture?

  See Breeze:

  Am I the only one who sees the legs coming out of an opening in the ground beneath her?

  Probably, until you point out what people are ‘meant’ to see, and then some may agree. See also Pareidolia.

  slimboyfat:

  The picture of the new system in chapter 22 looks like a planet on Star Trek to me.

  I also noted this in my review (along with comments on various pictures throughout). I couldn’t find any other source for the sci-fi looking buildings.

  Also check out the ‘rebellious’ face of one of the women in the bottom left of page 232.

  (Both covered in chapter 22.)

  Sea Breeze:

  Does anyone know when the book came out and what it looks like?

  2018 at the Annual Meeting of the Watch Tower Society, with minor revisions yearly since then.

  I noted this inconsistency in my review of the Pure Worship book (relevant section here). The scripture alludes to a cull of animals, but the Watch Tower Society apparently wants to make God seem a little bit nicer, just making the animals 'friendly' rather than killing them off.

  HowTheBibleWasCreated:

  Sure Lloyd made a funny video on 1 Samuel 15 with his famous "Stab, Stab Stab, Death, Death Death." comments. The fact is that if you read the same story in the Iliad no one would complain

  And if anyone out there starts saying that you’ll die if you don’t believe and respect everything in the Iliad, that will be a valid point.

  They didn’t trot out the old story of someone finding a mystery envelope with ‘exactly the amount they needed’?

  ‘Once, I started watching this video on YouTube and I didn’t really like it so I stopped watching’.

  Yeah, cool story.

  Some people seem to follow their preferred YouTube channels with a cultish mindset, and complaining about others. Whether it’s Lloyd or Kim and Mikey or various others.

  These people provide information that anyone can watch for free. If you like it, watch it. If you don’t, don’t. If you don’t like long videos, just watch the short ones. What’s with all the complaining?

  It’s ridiculous to expect that all of a YouTube channel’s views will exactly reflect the opinions of the viewer. And complaining that videos are too long is pointless. If someone has tied you up and forced you to watch a video longer than you want to, that’s a matter for the police. Otherwise, what’s the problem?

  The King of the North and the South, who are they now?

  i know several wit-lesses that to date are researching these topics.. however i haven't heard much from any publications recently about it, i think the latest refresh was ~10 years ago.

  since then the power of the us has severely diminished (or at least the rhetorics about it has), russia is a small potato in modern era, the eu is a cowardly dog in the eyes of everyone and we have the rise of china which is as far as military might is concerned, a paper tiger.. we also have the rise of islam, especially since the end of the nato nation-building effort in afghanistan which is now in power in most of the middle east and africa, as well as regions of asia and growing strong in europe.. does anyone have noooo light about these developments.

  is islam the king of the south?

  Rocketman123:

  The King of the North in ancient biblical times is relating to the King of Israel and the King of the South was referring to the King of Judah.

  No. As used in Daniel, the ‘king of the north’ refers to the (Syrian) Seleucid kings and the ‘king of the south’ refers to the (Egyptian) Ptolemaic kings. The story in Daniel chapter 11 traces those kings from around 333BC to 164BC.

  There is no identifiable association to any modern day country accept within imaginative delusions.(via prophecy)

  Correct.
