because "mercy" is used,
the repented "deceived" ones will surely be forgiven
but the aknowledged "deceivers" and "deceived"ones - no proof for that !
Let God/ The Judge have mercy !

Wannabe,
good post !
in fact, God has no "earthly organisation" ...... , only a "heavenly Kingdom" which will be extended over earth
. His purpose is to have a "people" of cleaned/sanctified individuals as written
14 " who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good."
only to a such kind of "people" God will give the Kingdom as written in Daniel 7 v27.
so , God has NOT earthly organisation , and don't need it , BUT His purpose is to "start" His (heavenly) Kingdom on earth with in a "people" composed by "purified individuals" of whose Head is Christ !
Those understanding these things are just now cleaning themselves through the "water" of truth , by faith !
TJLibre , good quotes !

An easy way to demolish 1914
by sd-7 ini've read so many different discussions about 587 b.c.[e.
i often wondered if those issues were debatable; either way, i found the discussions of the historical data to be far too technical for the average person to absorb.
if i may be so bold, i consider myself as slightly above average, in my more arrogant moments.

Indeed , Russell has "borrowed" the chronology from others... who lived before him
Here would be important to say that the Bible chronologies were NOT discovered by God to Russell or others of his mates or followers
the chronology was not dscovered untill about 8 years ago , but is not believed yet .
There is an important thing to be observed : all given "datas" belong to "end-times prophecies" (Daniel and Revelation) , so, they are a part of "end-time"... and these datas CANNOT be used with the purpose to find WHEN the end-time starts or begins
the real data of the begining of the latter days and end-time is to be found with OTHER MEANS , and surely WITHOUT Daniel's chronologies...

I wonder whether our languages are going to be confused again
by ThomasCovenant inwith the new burj khalifa standing 828m tall god must be pooping his pants worried about what else man may achieve.
.
that old tower of babel must have been really really really tall to have caused him to panic somewhat.. the burj khalifa is nearly twice as tall as the empire state building.. what the hell must he be thinking now.

In fact God is accomplishing his word according to the "spiritual" interpretation of his word
the Tower is already under His action of "scattering" it
its about ... Watch ... Tower
the team over W..Tower acted hard in the last several decades to "bring people of ALL nations" under their control
by imposing an "unity" under their own control
Now, God is shakening this Tower , and shortly it will be made into pieces
all its ex members will be confused ... regarding the "truth language" imposed by the Babel Tower leadership ...
and they are already....
action ongoing...

I can't imagine doing THAT in my wildest dreams.....
by AK - Jeff inputting on a three piece suit to spend a 90 degree summer day knocking on doors and trespassing!dragging an entire family, including babies and young children to three or four day meetings in an outdoor stadium, living in a seedy motel room for the week.getting home from work and spending the next six hours cramming for a 'theocratic review', getting the entire family ready to go, gulping down dinner, and speeding off to the hall, and then finally getting home around 11 pm, hurrying off to bed so that everyone could get up for work and school in the morning!going to school to explain to the teachers why little johnny can't color pictures of santa, salute the flag of his country, eat birthday cake with all the other 5 year olds, bow his head when prayer is offered, or exchange valentines with all the cute 5 year old girls in class.
and then explaining with grace why he is not immersed in a cult!well, on and on!
these things were typical of my witness life - now i cannot imagine ever doing such silly things, and especially thinking that somehow they would bring pleasure to my god!.

"You have no idea and need to understand that for some of us, the GREAT TRIBULATION has already occured."
..............................
here you have stated a truth !
this is, in fact, the GT where the great multitude (Rev 7:14-17) is coming out - the oppression done by the MOL to those seeking the Kingdom of God .

As A Witness, Were You Intrigued By Prophecy?
by minimus ini knew some jws that lived for examining so -called bible prophecy per watchtower interpretation.
everytime they thought a "new point" was being brought out in a watchtower, they would begin their speculations and discuss their views with like minded theorists.. personally, i never got into bible prophecy, especially after realizing how the watchtower has changed their opinions over the years.. did you really get into prophecy or were you more into other aspects of jwism?.

In the book of Daniel,"The March Of The World Powers" got me good. I did the public talk on that one, the head of gold representated such and such etc. Down to the toes where we are supposed to be right now!

##################Could you think that that prophecy is exactly about the WTS- its history ?
"The head of the statue was made of pure gold" >> points to Russell's period
"its chest and arms of silver" >> points to Rutherford's period
"its belly and thighs of bronze" >> points to Knorr's period
"its legs of iron" >> points to Franz and Henschel period
" its feet partly of iron and partly of baked clay." >> points to the present period
41. Just as you saw that the feet and toes were partly of baked clay and partly of iron, so this will be a divided kingdom; yet it will have some of the strength of iron in it, even as you saw iron mixed with clay.
42. As the toes were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle.
43. And just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the people will be a mixture and will not remain united, any more than iron mixes with clay.
44. "In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will itself endure forever.
45. This is the meaning of the vision of the rock cut out of a mountain, but not by human hands - a rock that broke the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver and the gold to pieces.
"The great God has shown the king what will take place in the future. The dream is true and the interpretation is trustworthy."
.........."the rock cut out of a mountain" >> points exactly to the "people of the saints of the Most High" (Dan 7:21-27)
the rock has been cut out already of the mountain,
and it is strucking/crushing the feet of this statue
the complete destruction/crushing of it will be within a few years
let him who has years, listen !wantingtruth
