BAPTIZED Into a "Lawless" Publishing Co.

by clarity in

sunday morning food for thought.. ...into the temple of god "entry into the holy place" and that it is accomplished through baptism "bodies bathed in clean water" which also includes a public declaration "the public declaration of our hope".

heb 10:19-23. .

now if the association with baptism and entry into the temple is understood a further examination of baptism should help the reader comprehend some simple baptism criteria which is mentioned in the following by the apostle matthew:.

Zechariah 8:11,12 - Jehovah announces the 70-years ended?

by GOrwell in

hi folks,.

i've been reading into the zechariah scriptures (zech 1:7, zech 1:12, 7:1-5 etc) about when the 70-year desolation period ended, but i couldn't seem to find much about zechariah 8:11, 12. chapter 8 continues where chapter 7 left off (chapter 8 mentions that jehovah "continued" to speak), so the time frame is the same as in the beginning of chapter 7 (4th year of darius, around november 518).

for some reason, this scripture clicked :.

Try to understand when the "70 years" are ending , regarding God's people during the "latter days" .

wittnesses of who?

by arimatthewdavies in

jehovahs wittnesses have adopted their name because they want to show that they are wittnesses for jehovah, but i need to point this out for your consideration first the name jehovah while it shows your referereing to jhwh really is not valid in the least, to be a wittnesses of some one in any court you must have his real ful.

name, proxies [stand in names] are not allowed.

second it was jesus christ who comisioned us to work for him.. third he is the mediator between us and god, hence how or why can you be a wittness for jehovah ?

hello all

indeed. the Christians-Bible Students under JFR. have taken wrongly upon them the Name "JW"s"

but they have done many other wrong things , or have given many wrongs interpretations of Scriptures

regarding the Name , YHWH has prophecised that His people will receive a new name

Isaiah 62:

2 The nations will see your righteousness,
and all kings your glory;
you will be called by a new name
that the mouth of the LORD will bestow.

The "new name" is that of "Christian" , that is , a follower and believer in Christ

all people who return to God now , after realizing that they have been departed from God's word , are appreciating again the Name given by Father to His Son's followers and believers : Christians

Acts 11:26 ..... The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch

This is the new name : Christians .

The Witness Who Cried Wolf

by sabastious in

witnesses, for some reason, feel they deserve massive credibility in bible predictions and interpretations.

enough that they feel they have to right o be considered an universal authority.. their claim to fame comes from, mainly, their stance on blood, the trinity, immortality of the soul and hellfire.

maybe this is actually what the bible teaches... but to me, it is a moot stance in regards to the position they claim to have a right to.. the witnesses have been heralding the coming of christ for well over a century.

wantingtruth

Sabastious,

your words does prove the veracity of Jesus words:

29. But immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30 and then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

============================

the real understanding of these words is , for a long time , for each of us - who worshiped God through (so called)"God's organization" , the GB and those around them has been seen/perceived as "heavenly luminaries" , being also persons "with heavenly calling"

NOW , the reality around us demonstrates that "the increasing light" coming from them is , in fact , "darkness" !

than means that "the powers of the heavens shall be/are being shaken"

yes , they are the "old heavens" to be destroyed ...

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

Now , what does it follows ?

the verse 30 says that "the sign of the Son of man" ...

well , the Son of man includes those who really are members of the "Body of Christ" now on earth

how will they be recognized ?

again Jesus words :

43. Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He that hath ears, let him hear.

so , they will " shine forth as the sun" ...

will we be able to identify them ?

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

This way does God describe His ongoing action (of replacing the old heavens with the new ones )

Isaiah 51: 16 And I have put my words in thy mouth, and have covered thee in the shadow of my hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and say unto Zion, Thou art my people.

and what will be the result of His work ?

Revelation 21: 1. And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth are passed away; and the sea is no more.

does smbd understand that ?

The Mark of the Beast

by sabastious in

just a refresher on the jw explanation of the what number 666, the mark of the beast, really means:.

the mark identified.

immediately after disclosing the number 666, revelation mentions 144,000 followers of the lamb, jesus christ, who have his name and the name of his father, jehovah, written on their foreheads.

...The Mark of the Beast ...

....Interesting ! ...

Major Blunders of the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses!

by wannabe in

they never would have taken the position of the faithful slave; but they would have taken the position as the house, for that is what the anointed class in the first century, was!

but never would any of the true anointed class, have taken the position as the ones appointed over the house; as does the governing body of jehovah's witnesses.

" {matthew 24:23-26} the governing body of jehovah's witnesses will tell you; 'look!

Because this post is regarding chronology ,

I am inviting you to search also the chronology of the "latter days"

We are feeding the answers to the Bethel Lurkers!!

by clarity in

are we providing the material for damage control?

are we making them look credible?

like giving them a "heads up" as to what is ssoooo wrong, and they're trying to fix the fallout!

wantingtruth

Yes , "we are feeding the Betel lurkers"

here there is an absolutely true promission for the GB :

from Ezekiel 21 :

25. 'And you, O slain, wicked one,the prince of Israel,whose day has come, in the time of the punishment of the end,'

26. thus says the Lord GOD,

'Remove the turban and take off the crown; this will no longer be the same

Exalt that which is low and abase that which is high.

27. 'A ruin, a ruin, a ruin, I will make it

This also will be no more until He comes whose right it is, and I will give it to Him.'

Good promises for you, GB !

Helpful suggestions for The Watchtower Society ...

by wannabefree in

it seems you discontinued the wrong meeting.. 1. reinstate the "book study" at private homes - (and go back to the original name, because changing the name to "congregation bible study" isn't fooling anyone).

2. add a real bible study/discussion to the in-home meetings.. 3. discontinue the other four meetings and sell the kingdom halls ... or turn them into homeless shelters, that would be a christian thing to do.

4. stop printing magazines for the ministry, tracts work just fine.

wantingtruth

In any case , what will happen to WTS will be only God's will !

firstly, Isaiah 47 :

1. "Come down and sit in the dust,
O virgin daughter of Babylon;
Sit on the ground without a throne,
O daughter of the Chaldeans!
For you shall no longer be called tender and delicate.

.... continue with the entire chapter 47 ....

and then see Zephaniah 2 :

15. This is the exultant city
Which dwells securely,
Who says in her heart,
"I am, and there is no one besides me "
How she has become a desolation,
A resting place for beasts!
Everyone who passes by her will hiss
And wave his hand in contempt.
