OLD information for NEW light

by architect in

has anyone ever stop to realize that since the new change in thought regarding the generation that jesus spoke about was from references dated: (w95 11/1 pp.

1011 saved from this wicked generation...).

1957 walter bauer's greek-english lexicon.... 1940 or so w.e vine's expository dictionary.... 1964 theological dictionary of the new testament.

1964 Theological Dictionary of the New Testament

Sounds like we had the basis of this information for years ago and now the WTBS had found it in 1995!

In addition, why would they use secular references instead of the scriptures to change the most benchmark of all JW thought and livelihood?

Was the faithful slave sleeping?

Still on the fence!

friends

hey everyone i know its been a while since i posted but today i felt the need.just wanted to update you all on my position which is still brainwashed!i just dont know what to do i gain my strength to conquer this disease,(thats what i call being born in the org) from others like freedom lover who have come out of this religon free and clear i know its not easy but i know it can be done.i dont know why i just cant get over it and move on already,but theres thats piece of me that says,but what if?then im back, screwed and tatooed with jdub on my forehead,thinking that jehovah is upset and dissapointed with me and satan has me in his grasp.im stil sooo confused even with all the evidence pointing to they are full of crap!what if they arent?i just want to know the truth even if i dont choose to follow it,i want to know if jehovah is watching me torment myself every day,going back and forth and i cant take it anymore.then i think what if there is no jehovah?who the hell am i praying to with my daughter at night?

(the air mabe)you see my daughter still believes even though she is ready to celebrate halloween this year and yes we bought her a costume,cinderella!my mother comes and takes her every now and then only if i promise to go to some meetings and i did last weekend i attended the sunday meeting for once in a about 6 months!felt strange to be there but once again going to a different cong i got love bombed.btw i feel guilty and scared about having anything to do with halloween this year.yup still dealing with the guilt,fear,agony,of knowing and believing in the dubs,for so long now trying desperately to get out without feeling the way i do.i just dont know what to do anymore and its a shame because the dubs have sucked the life out of me(guess i didnt check my doubts soon enough).if i dont get off the fence soon im going to go nuts.i like believeing that satan doesnt even exist and that there is no heavenly org.gives me peace of mind that i can just live my life,if theres a god,fine,is it jehovah?thats where the conflict arises and i cant just go on with my life thinking jehovah has lost me to the other side!

!im not a lost cause yet guys.i need new light!

How can we all be sure that Ray is right about what he wrote? sure all the evidence is there about them claming to be prophets and all

but there needs some how to be I think more CONCRETE proof that we were all part of THE LIE !

Where is their Scriptural proof?

by Honesty in

that people who discover the jehovah's witnesses and their watchtower bible and tract society are not nor ever have been approved by god to 'speak' for him and then leave the group are not going to be resurrected?

according to the bible everyone who has ever lived experiences a resurrection, so where does the wt 'no resurrection' teaching originate other than in the demented minds of the wt hierarchy?
