  matthew 16:28 verily i say unto you, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the son of man coming in his kingdom.

  mark 9:1 and he said unto them, verily i say unto you, that there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of god come with power.

  They "Keep Following the Lamb" - February Study Article (Praise for the GB)

  by Ultimate Reality in

  2. bible

  the article is not yet in print, however on jw.org you will find the audio recording for the february 15, 2009 study edition.. this article sums up some of the talks given over the past year or so.

  it makes clear that we should trust the faithful and discreet slave because jehovah and jesus trust the "slave".

  the slave has been faithfully providing spiritual food for 130 years.

  The Parousia by James S. Russell and a different view of Revelation

  by Ultimate Reality in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  many who hear about the "preterist" point of view become confused since thoughts often run to the idea that all bible prophecy has been fulfilled--for many this cannot be reconciled.

  for the average witness, we have never even been exposed to a different view on bible interpretation.

  indeed, the watchtower view of revelation and bible prophecy is that most everything in the bible applies now, to our special time since 1914, with the end of the system of things and the great tribulation right around the corner.. however, where does the concept originate that matthew the 24th chapter has a secondary fulfillment beyond 70ce?

  Let's predict the next 10 years of "noolite"

  by Awakened at Gilead in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the past 15 years or so have seen incredible "advances" in the new light agenda of the wts.. there have been changes in the generation (twice!

  ), sheep and goats, celestial phenomena, opening up the way to heaven (closed since 1935), the "composite sign", "blood fractions", along with major organizational changes, such as paperbacks, once monthly awake!

  's, cult edition of the wt, along with the reduction of the meeting nights and change to the po nomenclature becoming the coboe (ssdd).... some of these changes have been foreseen by posters here on jwd, or were suggested by information in apostates recomended reading lists (i.e.

  Searching for Yearbook Quote 1939

  by Ultimate Reality in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i am searching for a scanned page from the 1939 yearbook.

  i think it is on or around page 32. the paragraph mentions how they are not seeking to gather men into an organization, and it discredits the concept of salvation by means of a religious organization.

  if any one has this, your posting would be greatly appreciated.. .

  WTS Kingdom Hall Asset Grab

  by Ultimate Reality in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  many here are familiar with the wts request to "hold" the cash funds of congregations so that a higher rate of interest can be earned, not for the local congregation benefit, but for the society to use in the worldwide work.

  in particular, the funds are loaned, with interest, to other congregations that need to build or remodel halls.. .

  however, a new opportunity has presented itself to the wts.. .

  Finished Mystery - Censorship Question

  by Ultimate Reality in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i have obtained a 1917 edition of the finished mystery.

  there are some pages that were removed, supposedly due to censorship.

  does anyone know the history on this and how (or if) it relates to the imprisonment and release of rutherford and associates?
