  First mention of "new light" may appear in July 15, 2013 Watchtower

  by cedars in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  a trusted source informs me that the "new light" about the faithful slave is to make its first printed appearance in the july 15th watchtower, which should be available for download online three weeks from now, on around april 15th.. i'm led to believe that the references to the new understanding are made in such a manner as to suggest the "new light" isn't that new at all, which suggests to me that little or no effort is being made to explain the doctrinal connotations.

  my source and i are hoping to get a key paragraph posted at the earliest opportunity.

  watch this space!.

  False prophets or simply wrong expectations?

  by leaving_quietly in

  2. beliefs

  in a talk i heard recently, the brother was talking about how jws had certain expectations about the end, acknowledging 1914, 1925, surely before 1935 and 1975, then we learned that it's not in our jurisdiction to know jehovah's timetable.

  then he said, some say that because we made those mistakes, some say jws are false prophets.

  he said that was "simplistic thinking".

  things for jehovah's witnesses to think hard about.. .

  1.you cannot change what you refuse to confront.. look at how you are feeling most of the time.

  that sense of going nowhere and feeling down is not because you aren't spritual enough.

  apparently, the original writings of the bible canon have been found in warwick, ny.

  the new world translation will be updated to clarify discrepancies.. here are some noteworthy changes: .

  1) in genesis, right after satan sinned, he "pretty much disassociated himself", the original writings noted.

  Infographic on the March 2013 Awake

  by RayPublisher in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the watchtower has chided its members repeatedly for many years about not reading anything it deems unsuitable, especially when it is composed by former members.. interestingly, the new march 2013 awake magazine pages 10-11 has an article about a woman that studied and then converted from judaism to jehovah's witnesses.

  there are three key points in the article that actually encourage those with discernment to go against the watchtower ban on books written by those with dissenting views.

  see if you can catch the clues by clicking below to read the article:.

  Brother placed 'Teach" Book to President Obama? WTF?

  by Smoky in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i just read a post on monday aprox 9pm on the "escuela del ministerio teocratico/theocratic ministry school" on facebook (posted in spanish).. it is talking about an experience given in a ohio, circuit assembly.. it reads that a brother that was a worker at the factory obama was visiting, was able to preach briefly to president obama and place the book 'what does the bible teach' during a quick meet and greet.. i think its bullshit.. anyone ever heard of this experience at a assembly?.

  i dont have a cpu, and my phone is not working, for me to copy, translate and post on here for you all to see.

  maybe one of you can?.
