Instructions from the Old Elder's Book

by John Aquila in

last night i was looking over the notes on my old elders book and one of the instructors told us to write this down.

"when you want to get the friends to believe and obey anything, just keep saying it over and over and over and eventually they will believe it and follow whatever they are being told.

when i went back to school, i learned this quote in one of my world history classes..

I don't remember being instructed to write that in my elders book either cantleave

I suspect many of Aquila's experiences are embellishments or fabrications.

TV.JW.ORG (September 2015): Serving Single - Do not use JW dating sites!

by Designer Stubble in

around the 39:00 minute mark the focus shifts to a single sister who cannot find a mate.

at the 42:30 minute mark she states "i cannot believe it crossed my mind...to look on jw dating sites".

guess a new unwritten rule is added to the many oral traditions of these pharisees.

FadingTruth

Funny how GB member Jacskson recently got married to that younger sister. Of all people, shouldn't he have remained single and focus only on the Lord? He's going to be raptured soon anyways, right?

Hypocrites.

TV.JW.ORG (September 2015) - Generation explained again

by Designer Stubble in

guess the overlapping generation concept is difficult for most to comprehend.

david spane does his best to explain it again.

the cutoff date for this generation has now moved to 1992 (was once 1935), the year that fred franz died.

Blues Brother, anyone claiming to be anointed prior to 1992 (in their example) would be part of the second group. It would include many born even after 1960 if they had "the calling" in their twenties.

They've extended their timeline by decades now.

Quite the loose use of the word "generation"

So 1992 is Fred W Franz' death.... What exactly is the significance of that?

They're using him as an example. "Assuming" he was the last one living that was anointed before 1914, his contemporaries of the generation would have to be someone anointed prior to his death in 1992.

Where the hell have they got 1992 from?

When Franz died.

It's what the FWF in the chart stands for: Frederick William Franz

It should really be WTF

This will be the chart on JW broadcasting in 50 years.
They'll just keep extending the overlapping generation as much as they need to and eventually include the Group 3 of the anointed.

The fall of Jericho - PROOF!

by Bloody Hotdogs! in

from the november 2015 watchtower:.

what have archaeologists found that shows that jericho was captured in a short time?.

joshua 6:10-15, 20 says that the israelite soldiers marched around the city of jericho once a day for six days.

FadingTruth

who excavated Jericho in the 1950s. She is said to have discovered "six bushels" of grain over the entire dig site

Actual quote: "In her limited excavation area, Kenyon recovered six bushels of grain in one season!"

scattered grain, dating from a thousand years too early

Actual quote: "Additional tests were done on six grain samples from the destruction level resulting in dates between 1640 and 1520 B.C."

120-240 years is hardly "1000 years"

I'm by no means a JW apologist, but just because they mine quote and take things out of context doesn't give anyone else a free pass to do the same. We don't need to exaggerate the evidence to show how deceptive the WT is.

Lemonparty - I was interested in putting one together but have no experience in video editing. It's something I want to learn. Does anyone have a video editing program they would recommend, and preferably one that is free?

How soon would a new Elders' Book leak?

by Lemonp in

as the shepherd the flock book is now in the public domain, if the .org decides to create a new manual, how soon will it be leaked?.

this is mostly a question for wifibandit, but anyone else who may know is welcome to answer.

would it be a matter of days before we get a .pdf?

FadingTruth

I'm sure it will be in "apostate" hands & read before the vast majority of elders even knew a new manual was released.

The new CO video is a prime example. WifiBandit & Pixel provide us all with spiritual food at the proper time, and by that I mean before every other JW.
