Since they aren't making claims as to being a prophet or spirit inspired why should anyone take them seriously ? They can't even get the FDS dogma straight one minute they are apointed the next they aren't . i doubt seven dukes has anything to do with elders since they did away with the elder arrangement , this may be speaking of the last of the LF as they will provide spiritual guidance , the church leaders I've dealt with I wouldn't trust in any kind of bind they are clueless nit wits , I've even heard one boast he had as much holy spirit as the LF ... complete blaspheme . what I will find interesting is how the people that avoid the mark of the beast get around it ... They must have some well stocked fall out shelter that's entirely off the grid .

How much more strange can this get ?
by man in black inladt night i was talking to a coworker who's sister is a witness in my old hall, and i needed some asprin after listening to this.. how can this be tolerated by people who believe that they alone speak the truth ?.
a young couple ( early 30's) had two children, and they adopted another boy from the inner city, so they have three boys under the age of 13.. the father is a construction worker, and mom works pt doing various jobs.. as a babysitter they use the respected teenaged son of a very prominent elder.
well, the parents breakup.

I don't see how they allow that , jesus said people that get divorced are liable to gehenna and that was a blatant disregard for the moral codes involving marriage on the part of members

Advertise! Advertise! Advertise! The Governing Body.
by LogCon in" no one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, that those who come in may see the light.".
now that the 8 most important men on earth, the governing body, have been revealed as the faithful and discreet slave, to whom all the masters.
belongings have been given, now that the most important news of the the 21st century has been brought to light, it is time for the world to be informed.. therefore, 2014 will become the year in which all world leaders will be informed that to survive, and to help the people of their respective nations to survive,.

I've been seeing around here they dropped the FDS dogma because they now say the tribulation has not hit . oh that's right they aren't prophets or spirit inspired either ... good grief

This site has been going for 13 years. Did you ever at one point fear armageddon?
by ILoveTTATT ini am just wondering about all of you who have been on this site for long.
in all of the events that have happened since 2000 (for example, september 11th), have you at any point, even you die-hard apostates, felt like "oooh sh!t... i should go back to the kh"... just to have the world survive the latest disaster?.
what was the worst event for you, in terms of saying... "did i mess up???

I did start a study and was going for the dunk but the church once again made me turn back because of their idiot mentallity where they think church time is time to insult me . i believe armageddon is going on now , it's a spiritual war with the church and jesus against the demons and the world political powers that hate individualism and want everyone to be slaves to the state , it ends when the last saint is martyred then the wrath of GOD wipes out all the military and armies , revs 19. As far as I've seen i've not identified any JW as saints tho some of their publications show there may be some , the only way to know is if they prophesied and died as martyrs . There is no symbolic dying as to the world , revelation is clear they all died violent deaths .

Seven Headed Wild Beast officially no longer represents UN?
by donuthole inaccording to a new "bible questions answered": " the wild beast with seven heads introduced at revelation 13:1 represents the worldwide political system.".
i know that they have quietly been backing away from the un identification for awhile.
is this feature on jw.org a new official teaching, or just a spin for the sake of the public?.

the thing that makes me mad about the WTBTS interpretations is that they will blatantly deny any spirit direction nor claim to be a prophet , that is completely absurd , the book of daniel is clear that interpretations belong to GOD therefore require holy spirit , opinions are not the same , if they are talking opinions then they speak the mind of men and there is no need to take any of it seriously .

OMFG Dinosaurs and Noah
by konceptual99 injust fell off my chair whilst listening to the bible "highlights".
someone has actually just said that the flood account actually helps inform scientists on matters that perplex them.
for example for decades they have wondered how the dinosaurs all disappeared but if they looked at the account of the flood then they would see the answer.

sadly most mainstreamers still believe in the young earth , the WT changed it a long time ago but you can find the picture of dinos in the 70s bible maps . Latest theroy is the meteor wiped out the dinos about 65 million years ago

probably the stupidest thing I heard was the then president of the tower giving a sermon at a convention of which he professed to be of the LF but still intended to walk out of the world and into the kingdom , which is the earthling class hope not the LF hope , anyway I understand he died quite a while back .

I agree with DOC , they are still trying to cover up their UN NGO affiliation and are not condemning the UN as they did as being the disgusting thing causing desolation , a false hope of peace , I wonder if they still use the library and UN ships for relief in disaster regions . I thought they toned it down just prior to being found out . Granted the eighth king is probably the crown in britain anyway , the common view of what's going on is that the brits run the banking and money system whilst the US is the military backing of what the bankers want to do and the vatican is there for a spiritual center of which there are a billion catholics in the world so they get big support from that . In reality tho the RCC is involved in drug money laudering with the royals and the US politicians . I actually thought they were on to something there but so far the RCC or whore of babylon and it's affiliates are still allowed members of the UN and there has been no attempt to destroy it on the grounds of organized crime or anything else ...

It's kinda amazing how the 1986 year of peace from the UN was still not the peace and security they are waiting for , they had all major false religions pagan and christian praying for peace , the WTBTS was the only one not involved that I know of . At the time tho they once again made it sound like soooo close ......... I don't know how many times you can play the, soooooo close, card and still have people fall for it . These articles are nothing but opinion since they will insist they are not prophets , so why would anyone listen to them ? They just pretend to speak the truth when it's apparently just an opinion .They panick when people grow tired of the same attempts to control and manipulate , you don't want to leave now ,, you know we're right but we don't have a money or life back guarantee . this especially after the new generation dogma , clearly an example they are not a prophet and if are , they are a false prophet as they dangled that carrot for a hundred years ..
