one of 'positive proofs' they used to use was that the annointed numbers were dwindling.

The Witnesses are freaking out
by Sour Grapes ini still go to a few meetings a month just to keep members of my family happy.. the witnesses seemed to be getting all worked up about how close the end.
it sorta feels like the 1975 era only 35 years later.

in 2006 when i was dfd-they made the announcement so and so is no longer one of jws.they had to have a special needs talk on what that meant.this way a da jw does not get recognized as such.

i believe jesus meant the generation of his audience in the 1st century. jws just need to accept the fact that they are going to grow old and die just like the previous 1000 generations.

Questions that completely dumbfound Witnesses
by Megachusen in"so is the nearness of armageddon from jehovah's perspective or from ours?".
"why is the majority of the memorial talk dedicated to bringing in more members?".

i am coming to believe our pourpose in life is to keep procreation going and bettering life on the planet.christian religions in particular are very confusing.

in 1935 the judge said-stand up everyone.then he told them-"behold the great crowd".then everyone said-"gee,i always thought i wasnt going to heaven.the truth is they felt they were not going to heaven because they did not have a relationship with jesus.

Would any of you DESTROY ones faith and life as a JW if they were your dying grandparents?
by EndofMysteries inthis is a serious question, trying to decide the right thing to do.........i do believe in god, i am sorting out what i believe and true from lie and such.
have question on how atheist and just ones belief in god would respond to this.. .
if you have a grandparent, (or even some relative) who spent their entire life as a jw.

i would let them die peacefully-god has mercy on all of us.i have failed to find a christian religion without error.jws believe jesus died for our sins and was raised up.i feel that is sufficent.

generation teaching reconsidered
by inbetween inwas thinking about this new generation teaching, and to some extend it makes sense, let me explain.. first of all, i personally believe, it only applied to jesus time, it only made sense there, and when jesus talked about it, in the year 33, this generation certainly observed the events leading to jerusalems destruction 70 ce.
( even though the context does not really give much hint, since he talks about the sign of the son of man being seen in heaven etc, something that did not happen in the first century).
the main question is, what is a generation ?.

jesus alredy returned in 70 ad to execute armageddon on gods unfaithful nation and open up the new christian covenant.now heave n is opened up for believers.
