  Random Thoughts on Getting Older

  by Lee Elder in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the reality that all of us ultimately must face is that we get older and our bodies, and our minds eventually fail us.

  i have seen this first hand in my family, in the jw community, and in the ex-jw community.

  it is simply a sad part of the human condition, as is physical, emotional, and mental illness.

  QFR August 15, 2014 - Resurrection and Marriage

  by wisdomfrombelow in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the article addressed luke 20:34-36 and now they finally admit jesus could have been referring to the heavenly resurrection.

  they said "put simply, the answer is that we cannot say" which is surprising because they have something to say about everything.

  perhaps all the old people who are waiting the new world as widow and widowers want to know if they have a chance to be reunited with their dead loved one.

  I have often seen JW`s supposed beleif of 1925 as the end .....It`s not what I remember

  by smiddy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i could be wrong of course , but as far as i recall 1925 was not the date of armageddon , but was the date the" princes of the earth" would be resurrected .

  the princes of course were faithfull men of old such as abraham issac and jacob, anybody who had a prominent part in gods favour.. witnesses at assemblies after 1925 were constantly awaiting to welcome the resurrected princes of the earth up until the late 1950`s.

  these faithfull resurrected men were to lead the rank and file into the glorious new system of christs thousand year reign.. smiddy.

  2. beliefs

  every now and then i have seen rare mentions of countries where dubs do attend a civilian service as per watchtower 1996 may 1. i have been asked to compile a list of those countries, the reason being that right now finland is revaluating its old jw exemption law.. .

  The (missing) brackets in the NWT

  by kifoy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  it was a great day, that convention day they announced that the new world translation now was to be released in the norwegian language.

  first the greek scriptures in 1991, and in 1996 the whole bible.

  finally we too were able to read the best translation ever made!
