  Doctrine about undertakers in 1924?

  by GBSJG in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have read some books that dealt with the history of the wts so i'm familiar with a lot of strange doctrines that they had in the past.

  however when reading the wikipedia article on controversy regards jws i found this section take a look at what it says:.

  "1924: as of 1926, there would be no more deaths.

  Tyre shall never be rebuilt. Failed prophecy?

  by GBSJG in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  according to ezekiel 26:14 tyre will never be rebuilt after it is destroyed.

  the society says that after nebuchadrezzar alexander the great came and finally destroyed tyre.

  but in insight on the scriptures they also mention that tyre was rebuilt and later jesus and paul go to tyre.

  2. beliefs

  i always had trouble with answering that question.

  if there is a god why is there so much suffering?

  so i looked up the offical explanation of the wts in the bible teach book chapter 11 paragraph 12 says: let us consider an illustration.

  Biting my tongue at last nights bookstudy

  by GBSJG in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  so i went to last nights bookstudy which discusses 6 paragraphs of the daniel book so there was lots of room for comment.

  the study itself already was pretty frustrating it was taken from chapter 17 paragraphs 24-29 and it goes on about how the fds has to be lead by jehovah because of all the prophecies of daniel that fits them (1335 days was this convention to that etc etc).

  but the paragraphs also mention the failed prediction for 1925. here are some interresting quotes from the book: .
