the new understanding

by heathen in

hi guys , i know i was never a favorite here and haven't posted in awhile ... question .

what do you think of the new understanding of , " this generation " they seem to go in circles on this one big time , once 1914 generation was almost gone they said they didn't know what it meant and now in the new publication the generation includes the second generation after 1914 .... i agree they don't know what they are talking about and this is just another control move .

Things are not getting better according supposed experts , they have decried a nuclear winter for economic growth ,

Which experts? If you're talking about conspiracy nuts - they're not experts!

wars are starting everywhere

No they are not:

Rate of battle deaths in state-based wars 1946-2013

because the NWO wants to control everything ,

Conspiracy nonsense. Evidence?

Monsanto wants to poison everything

Conspiracy nonsense. Evidence?

,government corruption is out of control

Conspiracy nonsense. Evidence?

despite all that it says that people will be care free ,

Who is saying that?

just like many here believe things will not change .I've heard they are deliberately trying to start epidemics because they want global depopulation ... so certainly not will I trust in them .

What. Are. You. Talking. About?

we apparently can see that the world has not improved other than technology , we still see war famine and disease killing people .

Take a read of these:

Worst forms of famine see decline

The world looks like it’s getting worse. Here’s why it’s not.

I'll believe it when it happens.

The only possible way of halting this is if a General Election is called and a party comes in on a Stay vote.

If that happens then yes, it could be stopped, but otherwise it will happen.

When has the WTS ever been right about any alleged prophetic event?

Never.

Not once in its (almost) 140 year history.

We have the Tory party doing everything it can to kick Brexit into the long grass (against the democratic will of the electorate)

Are you based in the UK?

PM to trigger Article 50 by end of March

The Tories have always been, by and large, eurosceptic. All I can see is fight over whether we get a Hard Brexit or Soft Brexit.

"This generation will by no means pass away..."

A few people left do not a generation make.

"people living contemporaneously" -CTR

That makes more sense. Yes he did (and the WT did again in 2008).

Given that 1914 is the generation that does not pass way, from that WT doctrinal position, only contemporary anointed have not passed away to make the WT 1914 generation teaching still valid.

The generation that saw 1914 have passed away. Gone. Dead. People who claim to be 'anointed' today, and whose lives overlapped with those who saw 1914 are NOT the generation of 1914. My grandmother saw the events of 1914. I am not of the generation of 1914 just because in the late 20th century we were both alive for a time. It really isn't rocket science.

I have my conclusions and you have your opinions; and what will happen to you when you see?

See? What am I supposed to see?

The wt no longer sets dates

It still claims that 1914 was predicted in the Bible. It may have learnt not to make up new predictions but it still hangs on to the old nonsense.

I pity you. Holding onto the teaching of men because you can't just hold up your hand and say 'I was wrong'.

Interlapping generation is not a new teaching but interlapping anointed is new now.

Could you quote a pre 2010 WT source on the interlapping generation please.

Knowing that 1914 era anointed are dead and also most if not all of the people alive or born in 1914 are also probably dead, the only sequitur understanding is interlapping anointed given the conclusion that the socp began in 1914 and that at least some of JC disciples would see " all these things happening."

Were you drunk when you wrote that? It makes no sense at all.

1914 is written in stone. However, a century of invisible rule is a very long time and something must give within a year or so -seems to me if 1914 generation is to make any sense now.

1914 is not written in stone!

It's not even at WT teaching. It's an adopted teaching from Nathan H Barbour.

It's based on a fictitious version of history and an interpretation of the Bible that's simply a 19th centurys man's idea of what a text supposedly written in the Bronze age means.

As I've asked you before - what happens at the end of next year when you've suggested it runs out? Will you finally give up on the WT?

(And how can something be written in stone and yet a critical part of it run out in a year or so?)
