the new understanding

by heathen in

hi guys , i know i was never a favorite here and haven't posted in awhile ... question .

what do you think of the new understanding of , " this generation " they seem to go in circles on this one big time , once 1914 generation was almost gone they said they didn't know what it meant and now in the new publication the generation includes the second generation after 1914 .... i agree they don't know what they are talking about and this is just another control move .

any comments ?.

That's fine you don't believe, then this discussion is for those who want to discuss it , half banana . Religion and GOD are based on believing in the unseen , I am not interested in atheism . This religion sure is a confusing one , I agree with them that all others are corrupt and worthless . 1914 would have been my grandfather as well , he was in WW1 , the WTBS belief is that the generation sees the beginning of pangs of distress , we apparently can see that the world has not improved other than technology , we still see war famine and disease killing people . WW 3 is being talked about as much as during the cold war these days . I have no love for the church or it's members but find it a curious religion ..

interesting remarks all

My Story

by HereIgo in

my story: i am a 27 year old ex jw.

former ms and regular pioneer at age 19. i was very active and had many "privileges" including district assembly and circuit assembly parts etc.

as an example for young people.

That's what my thread is about , they once again tweaked , there are now only 2 over lapping generations of FDS , they should have stopped when they were ahead , instead they do another flip flop

that's another thing they go around in circles on, finklestein , they try to convince everyone they are GODs spirit directed organization but then when wrong will insist they never said it , all this stuff about jehovahs chariot making lightening quick changes in direction and them keeping up , implies they are directed some how , if you are going to do this thing , interpretations belong to GOD and he is the one that inspires prophesy , plus the FDS dogma also implies some sort of hot line to GOD .. anyway , obvious they are wrong again on the generation

The belief on that is he showed them a vision not that they were seeing the actual event , I think they saw enough to be convinced of who he was when he showed up after the resurrection . I think he was ruling then but the WT says he wasn't , Mathew 28:18 , then he went to be in heaven and told john he was watching everything from there and was judging them , he is the one that would beat the wicked slave as well . I do realize this site refutes anything they say as the truth , been screwing around here for a long time , I know there are some still in just so they can make their family happy .

thanks for the input tho

Unlike most of you I still think 1914 is significant , of course many things have come into question about the 7 times of Daniel and the fall of Judah in 607 BCE , I just base It on Mathew 24 so there seems to be some sort of relation as the kings of the earth war in Daniel 12 as well , king of north and south , I do think their Daniel prophesy book was too much , including too much history , when it comes to religion these people and most others never admit to a lie , just wish they would , instead we get it was some sort of old light , unbelievable the way they are

really but I think it was a control thing , instead of just saying it could include any generation since 1914 they needed to keep the sense of urgency up ,dying of old age was not the way I see the bible describing their final hours , revelation says the 4 winds of destruction are held back until the last of the number die by the ax , I don't believe it to be a symbolic death , the first church were all murdered by the romans or the jews .

true it says they will not pass away until all the things happened , they do pass away , whether it's passing away as in death or passing away as in the world they live in passes away or some other type passing away , it is talking about passing away , the GC definitely not part of a death passing away . I have heard the LF talk as if they were going to share with the GC in not dying at a convention before , I believe they have to endure being imprisoned and executed as a final test and there are no governing body members that I know experienced that . Any way I think change will happen again ... It is frustrating they force you to believe whatever they say even if you think it's wrong and makes no sense , I just can't be a guy that repeats anything they hear because they are told they have to

I think we all know about the millions now living , lie ,33 was the cut off because people refused to eat and drink at the memorial , it always amazes me that all the unworthy want to judge everyone else's spirituality , we will see how long before some new stuff happens again , they still say that russel was expecting the invisible presence in 1914 but he was expecting the end , from what I remember

Today's Text: A Whole Lot Of Bull****!!!

by Divergent in

jw
friends

friday, september 30. one thing i have asked from jehovah—it is what i will look for—that i may dwell in the house of jehovah all the days of my life.—ps.

27:4.. as part of jehovah’s organization, what joy we now have in telling others about god’s promised new world!

(2 pet.

I don't care for religion but they seem to always get very convoluted when talking about other peoples spirituality pertaining to obedience to head quarters which includes ,"adjusting", your beliefs over night , take a look at the new generation dogma , once again they force it on everyone , no questions , repeat after them or elder , "spiritual inspector ", comes down heavy on you , I'm not afraid since I'm not in and don't consider them friends
