  The "First Lie" Comparative To Change In Generation Teaching?

  by TheKings in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the wts, and perhaps other religions, teach that in the book of genesis we find an account of the first lie.

  this was satan's words:"you positively will not die" in reference to them eating the fruit of the tree of knowledge... you all know this one, of course.. .

  it occurred to me today that the change in the generation teaching is a mirror of the adam and eve scenario.

  a couple months ago my jw mom told me that in all the book study groups for their congregation they were told to go out and by emergency kits because "things were getting so bad".

  i restrained myself from rolling my eyes.

  has anyone else heard of this happening?

  an elder is at my house right now studying with my dad in the next room.

  he can probably hear me typing now .

  i got two crank calls in a row (the phone is right by the computer on the desk) ...then someone called a third time and i just picked up the phone and slammed it loudly.

  2. beliefs

  i admit to being curious as soon as i saw this new bit of propoganda put on the dining room table 'casually' in my view by my mother.

  i know i can't look at any of the magazines without being questioned why...so i took a look while i had some private time.. what a fine lot of manure... :p. .

  they must be getting scared in brooklyn.

  i don't know if that's the universal jw term for potluck nights or if all congregations have them but all the ones i went to had a potluck night at the book studies once a month.

  does anybody have any good stories related to these occasions?

  tonight my family is going to a potluck night and as usual they asked me to make something for it.

  HELP with history and daniel and damned confounded circular reasoning!

  by TheKings in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i've been put into the corner arguing with my jw mom about 607/587 being the destruction of jerusalem.. i got her to admit 607 was wrong, but she says the prophecy in daniel with the cutting of the tree and removing the crown (anybody know what i'm talking about???

  ) was referring to when in 607 the kings and nobles in jerusalem were taken captive to babylon (i think it was babylon...she confused the hell out of me) and it was destroyed in 587, but that doesn't matter.. so counting the seven times is from the time the crown was removed in 607 to 1914 and jesus' invisible reign.. .

  anybody understand this and want to help me?
