  Science disproves JW claims

  by elbib in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  according to quantum theory and non-locality, two particles, can act in unity.

  for example, take a and b (photons or electrons for example).

  pair them, then separate them, and put them on either side of the planet.

  What was your first public bible reading? And when?

  by Mandrake in

  2. experiences

  i perfectly remember that, rehearsing with mom, trying to read with enough emphasis and in a proper tone.

  i was 5 years old, back then in 1996 i think, and the portion was james 5:1-13.... i found today that i still know the first verses by heart!!!

  it's actually a cherished memory for me, i came to memorize those because mom had me starting the reading all over again until i got to read it properly... and in time!!!

  ( My first Ministry School Bible reading was Isaiah 44:1-20 when I was 6 or 7 years old around 1961-62)

  Russell's chronology was right after all!

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the kingdom of god is already begun, which is pointed out in prophecy as due to begin the exercise of power in a.d. 1878, and that the "battle of the great day of god almighty" which will end in 1914 with the complete overthrow of the earth's present rulership, is already commenced.. i just did the math....and russell was right.

  christ returned invisibly in 1874 and took rulership (restored kingdom reign) in 1878.. 2520 years minus 607 when jerusalem was destroyed = 1913 (accounting for no year zero) = 1914. that`s 2520 - 607 = 2014. but wait, that`s 2520 prophetic years of 360 days, not solar days of 365.25 days.

  to convert to solar days then one must multuiply 2520 x 365.25 which gives us 2,484 actual years.

  If you really wanted to do this, you would need to have some kind of 'apostate' connection inside Bethel. If my memory serves me correctly, you could write a letter to each individual member of the Governing Body (tm) and then have your 'apostate' connection send these letters through the internal Bethel mail system. They would each get their respective letters during the morning 'mail delivery'.
