sorry i thought it was a new morning worship video but it is 6 months old and has already been discussed on here.. it is presented by gb helper k flodin and about this generation.
the delusion and hypocrisy runs deep.. he reminds the cult members not to speculate because they aren't supposed to know the day or the hour.
then he proceeds to speculate that armageddon will occur before 2040.. https://tv.jw.org/#en/video/vodprogramsevents/pub-jwbmw_201511_3_video.
The simple truth here is Jesus said " [ This ] generation " will by no means pass away....etc.
Not overlapping generations.
" This " generation meaning one , not overlapping or multiple generations .
Their is absolutely no rationale for suggesting an overlapping generation.
The WTB&TS are guilty of adding to the scriptures , words and intent that are not their.

why murder 8 billion non-believers to just turn around and resurrect 20 billion other non-believers?
.
I can just visualise millions of resurrected Muslims in the new system of things , can you ?
Should be interesting.

i used to be a member of this site, but jumped off a good number of years ago (08?).
i don't have access to my old email, so i'm using a new account.. anyway, i was baptized jw in late 90's.
da'd mid 2000s.. when i left there were three meets a week plus field service.
Members of the Governing Body used to be just names we heard or maybe a photo in a magazine if he was lucky.In other words their was a mysterious persona about them .
Now they are JW.ORG media personalities , hogging the limelight ,and in some cases showing what buffoons they really are.
The F&F have now been indoctrinated to wear badges , trinkets ,necklaces , bangles broaches etc. with JW.ORG ,the tetragrammaton , WT 1916-2016 H.Q., and all sorts of other trinkets advertising the cult .

maybe some of you interested in this:.
between 11/2015 and 05/2016 they merged in germany 48 congs into 24 congs.
in this time they build 16 language-groups and 3 sign-language-groups.
Maybe they are just trying to wake up the spiritually deaf .their has to be a lot of them
,Your right s.o ,you would only find maybe one or at a pinch two if that , in any congregation who are deaf.
Maybe their is a cart going around Germany with a JW crier ringing a cowbell calling out "Bring out your deaf"

every year in dozens of cities where conventions are being held, newspapers typically write an article about the event.
there are exceptions, but usually it is like the articles above.
i would love to see more newspaper articles that did some actual objective reporting, rather than puff pieces.
zeb ,that is a common practice to have special editions that are only sold at the convention sights.
Naive JW`s think what a great witness is given to the community not knowing they are the only ones receiving those copies.

I tried to have a beard a couple of times over my 33 years " in " it was tolerated for a couple of weeks then the heavies showed their hand.
I have now worn my beard for over twenty years and they can all get stuffed.
CC have you watched the show Dicte ? especially the first season , its interesting.

the issue of whether beards are acceptable or not is addressed in the september 2016 watchtower - well sort of.
it is as clear as mud as to whether they are allowed in places like australia, usa and britain.. 17. what are some factors that may affect whether a brother wears a beard?17 what about the propriety of brothers wearing a beard?
the mosaic law required men to wear a beard.
Why for the love of me do the WTB&TS make such an issue over men having a beard ?
It`s absurd .
It was a requirement for Old Testament /Hebrew Scripture men to have a beard according to Jehovah`s Law.
Christ Jesus , his Disciples ,his Apostles , and the Jews at that time all had beards in accordance with the law.
Where in the scriptures does it say that GOD/Jehovah now disapproves of men having a beard , where does it say that in the Bible.?
While we are not under law , does not mean we reject everything that was under law. since becoming Christians.

we will not weigh you down with burdensome lists, as you have the freedom to choose, but here is our list anyway.some snippets:.
the law showed jehovah’s strong feelings against clothing that does not make clear the distinction between male and female—what has been described in our day as unisex fashion.
(read deuteronomy 22:5.
For lurkers here :
You try wearing the clothing that Jesus and his disciples wore at your next meeting and see how you go.
Jesus and his disciples all had beards , grow one and see how long it takes for the Elders to come down on you for growing one.
You sisters with a beard are excused

(read deuteronomy 22:5.
Didn`t Jesus and his disciples wear clothing that was indistinguishable from women ?
I mean men didn`t wear pants , they wore robes , much like what the women wore
And for that matter women wore clothing that matched men`s attire.
Did their dress glorify GOD ?........... Did it offend GOD ?
I don`t see any scriptures that say one thing or another., why does the WT /GB ,see the need to go beyond what the scriptures say .
SSSHHEEESHH......... talk about stupidity ....are they for real ? Bringing this subject up in the 21st Century ?
