Blondie's Comments You Will Not Hear at the 06-13-10 WT Study (HOLY SPIRIT)

comments you will not hear at the 06-13-10 wt study (april 15, 2010, pages 7-11 (purpose).

as we have seen, jehovah used his spirit in the past to protect individuals as well as the nation of israel as a whole.

why doesnt god protect individuals today?.

Well, once again by reviewing your "review" it helps to see other "stuff". I thought from looking at this material, or study, early on and narrowing to the incredible generation debacle that's what would stand out as the meat. However by looking at the study further I found that there was other stuff just as silly. So right from the start we have the plan versus purpose. So Jehovah has/had a purpose which he could "tack" as needed when satan thwarted his (ideas I guess) which resulted in the death of adam and his wife, caused the delay of spreading the edenic garden globally at that time, etc. But then when he starts to implement his (idea I guess) to fix the problem, it becomes a plan apparently. It certainly appears that it changed to a plan since each effort to thwart this new idea was not tacked around, it was stopped or overcome often very forcefully. Anyway for me these articles are getting dumb and dumber. I noticed to how they throw attention off this new unexplainable light by saying "look at the box on the left and see if you have been keeping up with these other absurd postulations" and surely if you bought into those you should be okay with this new generation thingy. Just my two bits worth.

The Generation Watchtower (TOMORROW!) and The Cough of Incredulity

by slimboyfat in

the watchtower will be studied tomorrow that contains the new overlapping generations teaching.

paragraph 10 reads:.

"he evidently meant that the lives of the anointed who were on hand when the sign began to become evident in 1914 would overlap with the lives of other anointed ones who would see the start of the great tribulation.".

The finger - Me thinks you are just giving the finger to make a point? If you are trying to be serious and trying to make this claim plausible you still have to explain why they have changed umteen times to get to where they are, and what you there propose is in no way what they are saying. If your wonderful explanation was their workaround that is what they would have printed.

DVD "JW's Faith In Action, part 1 Out of Darkness" Omits! Omits! Omits!

by Wasanelder Once in

i've been watching the new dvd and it is a bull fest about russell.

i haven't even gotten half way and they already excluded one very important bit of information.

you'll recall that russell "lost" his faith and "turning away from church creeds and searching for truth, russell examined some leading oriental religions, only to find these unsatisfying".

designs. Right you are. Most witnesses don't know much about alot of these details. I am cutting and pasting a little experience I had past weekend, and although I know how blinded so many are including my brother who I was visiting, I was still amazed at some of the stuff that came out of their mouths. Life is really weird tho. Right know I am listening to a talk given by Ray Franz, Yes the ray that just passed, and it is clear that he was just as "in" as anyone else is/has been, at the time of this talk. I think it is circa 1970'ish, and it makes clear how far he had to go to get out from the cult. Anyway for anyone who has read this far, this is the pasted info

I had a talk with my brother and sis inlaw yesterday. They are eighty years young and like fifty years in the truff. They are the ones that my wife and I studied with, which study convinced us it was the truth. My wife and I have, after now been "free" for about five years after about thirty-five years in. Because of their age I don't see the point of hammering away at the idea of them leaving. I don't even have much chance to have discussions with them. But, yesterday was an exception, did have a discussion and although knowing how their thought process goes I can or must say I was blown away by the way this cult has them in their grasp. My brother has no good answers for many of the points I am able to bring up and so uses the defence, I don't know what the answer to it all is. This in spite of the fact that he still serves as an elder. So it was just reinforced to me that it doesn't matter if they come up with some stupid new generation or a book that hides all the silly stuff or a dvd, they will swallow, maybe hard if necessary and carry on believing the bull,

designs. You said what's to write about. I think they avoided mention of marriage to avoid any need to explain why that changed.
