comments you will not hear at the 07-02-06 wt study (may 15, 2006 issue date, pages 26-30)(integrity).
review comments will be in red.
wt material from today's wt will be in black.
Hi Blondie, I didn't get to read your comments until after the meeting. I'm glad I did not comment. I sat right next to a guy who's been coming to our meetings, but he's currently not studying. There's no way I'm leaving him astray and confused here.
Back to the article, how can the WT tell people not to think about the future when all it does is promise a paradise earth? Its a sad state of affairs there...
sorry if this has been discussed previously.
i will be leaving this false organization soon, but i'm slowly trying to help other see the actual liberation and joy exists.
have you been succesful in bringing out others from the wt?
The peace and tranquility is something not from me nor any human origin. The scriptures describe this as the indwelling Christ. I know my sins have been forgiven and the Father views me through the prizm of his Son.

Yes, I know that if someone had told me the WT was not the truth, I would have considered them insane, hateful, and blind. LOL, so I know what I'm up against. Thanks for sharing everyone. Seeing how we have the link up above, please continue the discussion there! Thank you!

I've recently found inner peace and tranquility in meetings, no longer afraid of what anyone else may say.
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 ??
Yes, I remember this article when it came out. I still look at all these publications which directly mention this to take place. I'm getting so tired of this. What a slap to the face for all the people that believed they would never grow old and did not prepare for the future.
who do the sons and daughter-in-laws represent (did they have children before the flood)?.
what does the ark represent?.
(2 peter 2:5) the true god gave righteous noah explicit instructions on how to build an ark for the preservation of life through a global flood.
Hi Hamsterbait, for those and several other reasons I don't think there was a global flood, but a flood affecting all of mankind. The introduction of racial differences lacks a natural mechanism. It very likely happened when God spread humanity across the lands (tower of babel).
I have noticed that regarding the pictures. It looks so staged for some reason. I thought today's study was particularly disgraceful towards God. No one can ever work hard enough for salvation, but being born again.

Hi Blondie, I feel time is running out. I noticed in WT magazine, they specifically jumped over Psalms 23 and 24 that have actually been fulfilled in Christ. He said it himself, I'm sure you know the scripture.
I can tell the society doesn't want anyone being on the internet...
Cyberguy, you're right on your comments! Thanks

Thanks Blondie, now I know this study inside and out and I'll be ready to comment. LOL.
My brother just asked me if I forgot what the Watchtower says about chatting online. :)
one of the things we are studying is how the bible is god's inspired and faithful word.
a paragraph mentioned how we should really study the bible with the aid of their book if we really appreciate the ransom.
at least nobody responded with such words, but instead we should study the bible.. i've got a question, in regards to the passage "but of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, neither the son, but the father only".
Thanks everyone, especially UnDisfellowshipped. That was very insightful. I suppose this reasoning also applies to the who the Creator is. In some scriptures it specifically says the Son is the uncreated creator. I'm liking this site more :)
jwfacts I probably misread your message. Something I've learned is to let scripture interpret scripture. God reveals himself in three persons. I don't know how blinded I was and felt sorry for all those 'Christians'.

I've got a question, in regards to the passage "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, neither the Son, but the Father only". The WT books poses a question, if the trinity is real, why isn't the Holy Spirit mentioned?
This is about the only logical question the WT offers? Any ideas?
