Skeptical about it all, but what can you do?

Does anyone have any info on him, like if he has any professional career past?

Huge Shift in Doctrine?

by Lemonp in

i am not sure why more people aren't talking about this?.

the march 15 study edition of the wt has some major changes!

- all unbiblical "types and antitypes" are now dropped.

Former explanation: In 1919, Jesus rewarded his anointed slaves on earth by entrusting them with increased responsibility.

Adjusted explanation: When Christ comes in the future, he will reward his faithful anointed slaves by raising them to heaven.

"Humans cannot know which Bible accounts are shadows of things to come and which are not. The clearest course is this: Where the Scriptures teach that an individual, an event, or an object is typical of something else, we accept it as such. Otherwise, we ought to be reluctant to assign an antitypical application to a certain person or account if there is no specific Scriptural basis for doing so." - Questions from Readers WT Mar15 2015

That is the type and antitype deal there. Very precise language.

Same as what was said at the AGM: AGM quote went "Where the scriptures say something is a type, we accept it as such. Where the scriptures are silent, we are silent"

The March 15 study edition of the WT has some major changes!

- All unbiblical "types and antitypes" are now dropped. Unless the bible references the "type" directly it is just a story or illustration.

- Now the rapture is a thing, with annointed being taken shortly before armageddon.

- 1919 is no longer a special date; dealt with in a special box too!

The biggest change I see is the "types and antitypes" this will wipe out so many prophecies or applied fulfillments. How do they get to 1914? The tree dream in Daniel 4... a chapter that is never mentioned anywhere else in the bible, not even a paraphrase if i have done my research enough.

So am I right to see these as really big changes? or am I mistaken?
