Deuteronomy 15:23 "You must pour the blood on the ground like water, or you can separate it into Watchtower-Society-approved "fractions." If you do that, you can go ahead and consume it."

1 Corinthians 14:34: "women should remain silent in the congregation. They are not allowed to speak except when giving a Ministry School part, Service Meeting demonstration, or commenting at the book study or WT study, but must be in submission, as the Law says."

How about this one:
Exodus 20:11 "for in six creative days of 7,000 years each, Jehovah made the heaven and the earth..."

Wing Commander, I know, this new doctrine is so absurd that it's almost funny. I love how they go back to Genesis and twist a verse about Joseph and his brothers in order to try to marshal some semblance of scriptural support for this wacky doctrine they cooked up.
For some reason, the Society conveniently ignored the other references to generation in Matthew (such as Matt. 1:17, 23:36). Of course, it's clear why the Society ignored those references--because they don't support the "new light" cooked up by the boys in Brooklyn!

Here's a transcript of what was said in a talk (called "Remain in the Secret Place of the Most High") at a recent DC:
That brings us to the question here, or the topic, that at no time would we want to leave the "secret place." This is not the time to leave the "secret place," for that matter there wouldn't be any time to leave the "secret place." But especially now is no time to leave the "secret place." Why? Well, particularly in view of the recent clarification we had with regard to Matthew 24 and verse 34. Now turn over there, Matthew 24 and verse 34.
We just had a Watchtower lesson last week with some fine material about this verse. Matthew 24:34: "Truly I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away until all things occur." Of course, the accurate or proper understanding of that really underscores the fact that we're living deep in the time of the end and there's a need at this time as never before for us to have an increased sense of urgency. Of course, that generation consists of contemporaries of individuals who lived at the same time.
Now the Watchtower of--the 2008 Watchtower--the 12/15 issue, page 25 made this comment about the word "generation": it says the word generation usually refers to people of various ages whose lives overlap during a particular time period or event. Now we've got an example of that: Exodus 1, and verse 6. "Eventually Joseph died, and also all his brothers, and all that generation."
Just think about what's written there--it refers to Joseph and all his brothers as "that generation." Now 10 of Josephs brothers witnessed events before Joseph's birth and at least 2 of those brothers lived after his death. So they were of a variety of ages but they were contemporaries and viewed as one "generation."
Now, correspondingly, the word "generation" there at Matthew 24:34 is comprised--or comprises--two groups of anointed Christians. The first group was on hand in the year 1914 when the sign of Christ's presence first became observable. The second group of anointed Christians are those who were anointed later and for a time were contemporaries of the older group. Now in view of that, Jesus' words there in Matthew 24:34 indicate that some of the second group will witness the beginning of the Great Tribulation, so the length of the generation, while not specified as far as the number of years, but it's a limited period of time.
Now we might illustrate it this way, F.W. Franz was born in the year 1893, he was baptized in the year 1913, so brother Franz was alive to discern the sign in 1914. Now Brother Franz, escuse me, Brother Franz lived until the year 1992, and many present-day anointed ones were his contemporaries and part of the generation that Jesus said would not pass away until all these things occur.
Now in view of that, Brother Franz, and for that matter, other faithful anointed ones lived in very challenging time period. A very challenging time period where strong faith was needed in order for them to remain in the secret place of the most high.

Deuteronomy 18:20-22: “However, the prophet who presumes to speak in my name a word that I have not commanded him to speak or who speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet must die, but only if he specifically says the magic words 'this is the word of Jehovah.' If he doesn't say those magic words then that prophet has no accountability even though he was full of baloney. So ya see that whether or not this false prophet lives or dies hinges on whether he said the magic words, so you better listen for 'em! And in case you should say in your heart: ‘How shall we know the word that Jehovah has not spoken?’ when the prophet speaks in the name of Jehovah and the word does not occur or come true, that is the word that Jehovah did not speak . With presumptuousness the prophet spoke it. You must not get frightened at him, provided, of course, that he used the magic words. Again, if he did not use the magic words, he is not accountable for what he said and he can make up any ol' thing he wants with impunity .’

1 John 4:1: "Do not believe every inspired expression except for those from the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, but test the inspired expression unless it came from the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society to see whether it is from God, for many false prophets have come into the world."
