The history of 1914

by PYRAMIDSCHEME in

i am still going through the questioning my faith stage as i just discovered the inconsistencies of the org.

it was 1914 that really threw me for a loop.

i have never been completely sold on the "new light" policy.

what HAS Jesus been doing since 1914?

-- well, He is reigning in Heaven from the time of His ascension - but not on earth !

---------------------------------

... how did they arrive at the date? Was it the same way Rutherford did using Daniel?

-- I know how they arrived to this data !

it is written in the Bible.....Jeremiah 2

12. Be appalled at this, O heavens, and shudder with great horror," declares the LORD.

13. "My people have committed two sins:
--- They have forsaken me, the spring of living water,
--- and have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that cannot hold water.

So , that data (as others ) was "found" because they (as God's people ) did not used the Bible in a correctly way /they did not rely on God's word , as truth,

but they have dug cisterns .. that is , they have rely (past tense) in other "sources" (extra biblical ones ) for their findings ....

The reality is that God didn't gave to them the understanding of the biblical datas found in Daniel and Revelation until around 8 years ago.

Here I have tried to explain a little the chronology.

Regarding when the Kingdom was settled in Heaven (or when Jesus was enthroned , I wrote here .

Now , a few words regarding Jesus coming - what it means , are found here .

WHO understands these verses ?

Isaiah 44

1 "But now listen, O Jacob, my servant,
Israel, whom I have chosen.

2 This is what the LORD says—
he who made you, who formed you in the womb,
and who will help you:
Do not be afraid, O Jacob, my servant,
Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.

3 For I will pour water on the thirsty land,
and streams on the dry ground;
I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring,
and my blessing on your descendants.

4 They will spring up like grass in a meadow,
like poplar trees by flowing streams.

5 One will say, 'I belong to the LORD ';
another will call himself by the name of Jacob;
still another will write on his hand, 'The LORD's,'
and will take the name Israel.

All of the high and lofty appointments I metioned at the beginning of this writing, that the Governing Body bestows upon themeselves, constitute that Organization as "sitting down in the Temple of God Professing themselves to be God." The reason being, was it to be true Jehovah did have such an earthly Organization, at this time; only Jehovah himself could make such appointments, by taking those appointments for themselves, they are actually professing to be God themselves, just as Paul predicted the Man of Lawlessness, would do.

This is all the truth! And the Truth will set you free!" Wannabe

Who really is the Faithful Slave?

by wannabe in

who really is the faithful slave?.

not so long ago i had a conversation with one of the witnesses at my door, and i drew his attention to the fact that nowhere in matthew 24 - mark13 - luke 21 did jesus mention any appointed organization on the earth, when he gave the sign of his coming.

i pointed out to him that all jesus foretold was the prevalence of many false prophets.

well,

I have found one person who fits Jesus description !

A Proper view of the appointed times of the Nations!

by wannabe in

a proper view of the appointed times of the nations!.

most today reading luke 21:24 draw the conclusion that ancient jerusalem is in question here.

of course that's a natural conclusion to draw, because it looks like jerusalem of old is in question, however this subject needs to be examined a little closer; because jerusalem of old is not in question here at all.. 24"and they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and be led captive into all the nations; and jerusalem shall be trodden down of [the] nations until [the] times of [the] nations be fulfilled.

"As Paul had said; this would take place after he left. These savage wolves would move right in and take over, influencing others to arise and distort the truth, even from among the true anointed class, to follow their course to draw away disciples after them. Abandoning the true faith, and take up these teachings of demons that came through hypocitical liars. By so doing trample on Jehovah's Throne City of Truth, as represented by the Twelve early Apostles. So, the appointed times of the Nations began right within the Christian Congregation, with these savage wolves, and from those who deviated from the truth of God's word, to follow those teachings of demons. No one can put a date on the beginning of those apostate workers. So, because of that, it cannot be known how long those times ran, only to say they are still running at this time, and did not end in 1914 as taught."

Wannabe,

I invite you to give attention to the Angel sent by Jehovah

Daniel 10

4. And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel,

5. I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, a man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with pure gold of Uphaz:

10. And, behold, a hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.

11. And he said unto me, O Daniel, thou man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright; for unto thee am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling.

14. Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days ; for the vision is yet for many days:

You should understand !

When the NT references the "word of God" what is it referring to?

by WalkTall in

the nt references the 'word of god' in a number of places.

(for example: hebrews 4:12-the word of god is alive and exerts power and is sharper than a two-edged sword).

it can't be referring to the ot and the mosaic law because those authors writing after jesus's death were trying to put away the old law traditions, and it can't be referring to any of the nt books because many were not even written yet or known to be scripture per se.

wantingtruth

the "word of God"

4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

Jesus included also the teachings (words) He was preaching

6. Jesus therefore answered them and said, My teaching is not mine, but his that sent me.
