  What is your favorite JW year ? 1879 - 2006

  by The_Replacement in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the oddest one for me is 1935, where do they get this idea that heavens doors were closed ???.

  makes no sense at all.. where did jesus say in the bible that in 1935 heavens doors would be closed.. with the governing body all dying off, soon the whole governing body will be replacements !

  I guess I should of said 1874 - 2006,

  forgot about the 1874 year, the first mention of Christ's presence being invisible ........

  that is too funny, too think people actually believed it.

  One of the best incites to how they preached this infatically (is that a word ?) Is to read the Watchtower articles that were in a four part series ... April 1, 15, May 1, 15, 1984. They have some awesome quotes that cannot be changed. Could someone post those articles ??????????

  The October 1993 Kingdom Ministry on the last page has a great quote to the generation and the purpose of the Awake as well.

  Generation change?

  by Jerohobobonadad in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hello all.. forgive my ignorance, but what exactly was the generation change, and what are the implications for jw doctrine?.

  although i rarely missed a meeting until a couple of years ago, this either went over my head or i wasn't listening (most likley).. i'm not the sharpest tool in the box so please keep it simple!

  references would be nice.. thanks.

  Of course the masthead in the Awake from 1982-1995 where it says why Awake is Published.

  Why Awake! is published

  Awake! is for the enlightenment of the entire family. It shows how to cope with today’s problems. It reports the news, tells about people in many lands, examines religion and science. But it does more. It probes beneath the surface and points to the real meaning behind current events, yet it always stays politically neutral and does not exalt one race above the other. Most important, this magazine builds confidence in the Creator’s promise of a peaceful and secure world before the generation that saw the events of 1914 passes away.

  Hmmmmmmm, CREATOR’S PROMISE, not man’s, not the Watchtower’s, the Creator’s

  then in November 1995 it was changed to and I QUOTE :

  Why Awake! is published

  Awake! is for the enlightenment of the entire family. It shows how to cope with today’s problems. It reports the news, tells about people in many lands, examines religion and science. But it does more. It probes beneath the surface and points to the real meaning behind current events, yet it always stays politically neutral and does not exalt one race above the other. Most important, this magazine builds confidence in the Creator’s promise of a peaceful and secure new world that is about to replace the present wicked lawless system of things.

  All reference to 1914 is now deleted, presenting evidence of this crucial change, as well as, in effect, indicating that “the Creator” has somehow changed his mind on his “promise” tied to the 1914 generation.

  The whole idea to keep the Watchtower going is that the end is so close, and they will continue to come up with new BS to keep the scam going.

  The October 1993 Kingdom Ministry on the last page has a great quote to the generation and the purpose of the Awake as well.

  Another Christ's Invisible Presence Question ? (1930 -1942)

  by The_Replacement in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  okay, we all know christ's invisible presence began in 1874, then changed to 1914 (in 1943).

  now, the last mention of christ's invisible presence being 1874, seems to be 1929/1930 , prophecy book, our lord's return booklet.. my question is .......... is christ's invisible presence mentioned in any publication from 1930 - 1942, or did it completely drop out of sight during this time frame ???????

  until it was re-introduced in the truth shall set you free book in 1943.. .

  Later on, during the years from 1935 through 1944, a review of the overall framework of Bible chronology revealed that a poor translation of Acts 13:19, 20 in the King James Version,

  yeah whatever, basically in 1943 in was Freddie Franz's job to fix all the chronology. And really who would notice.

  SO, What happened to : "the generation will not pass away" idea ???????

  by The_Replacement in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  okay, growing up a jw in the 70's 80's and early 90's, all we heard about was how the generation of 1914 will not pass away,(much like witnesses in the 60's and early 70's all heard about 1975) (what a great parallel) conventions, watchtower articles, public talks, endless studies and of course every issue of the awake magazine had it on the inside cover, it was everywhere, brothers, sisters and elders were absolutely sure about this, the society constantly mentioned it in our kingdom ministry (service), it was everywhere.

  then with the change in november 1995, it just kinda disappeared and became unimportant.. does the society even mention "this generation will not pass away" anymore ?????.

  seems to me, that the past 10 years, it has hardly been mentioned anywhere anymore.. what do you think ??
