i read in a forum in spanish that there is a strong rumor spreading in the corridors of the wt.
has anyone heard anything about this??
the change that is emerging is this: the great crowd has not yet appeared, and it is a group that comes out of the great tribulation.

i'm just doing some research for my book, and i uncovered a real gem from the watch tower of july 1st 1914 - published three months before the "gentile times" were due to end climaxing (as they thought back then) in armageddon.. a rather brave "colporteur" (pioneer) wrote in to the magazine asking whether the studies in the scriptures series of books advocating 1914 to be the end of the world should cease to be circulated after october.
not only does the question itself prove that the expectations of publishers back then were entirely contrary to what the society repeatedly implies them to be, but the answer given by russell shows the same arrogance and evasiveness that we see in modern literature from the society, showing how little has changed since those days.. here is the clipping.... .
notice how russell falls back on the same line of argumentation used by the society, namely "we have not attempted to say these views are infallible.".
I think he meant the year from Adam's creation (not B.C. and not A.D. )

hi guys,.
i call myself a lurker, but it's really been a short time since i've known about this site...it's only been five days.
i discovered this site while doing personal research on the topics of porneia, oral sex, and mutual masturbation, and found a thread on this site about it.
as i was walking to the station today i passed three people handing out watchtower tracts at the precise moment that one of them happened to turn to the other and say, "it's going to rain.
" i thought it was quite amazing to hear such an accurate prophecy from them after having come across this rather interesting wikipedia entry and counting how often they have made the same failed prophecy (13, if you include the bible student movement):http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/list_of_dates_predicted_for_apocalyptic_events.
i'm reading a book, called "when prophecy fails," quite an interesting book for someone like me, being rather interested in psychology, human behaviour, logic, truth, etc.. the example in the book explains what happens under certain conditions, when people have a very strong commitment to a prophecy which fails.
Why the WT prophecies have failed ?
... because the "signs" were fabricated by Satan ... to be a "counter sign" of the real end-time signs found in Matt. 24 !

i recently watched the 5-part documentary the fatal attraction of adolf hitler on youtube.... http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=fatal+asttraction+of+adolf+hitler&oq=fatal+asttraction+of+adolf+hitler&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&gs_l=youtube.3...9316.17859.0.18511.33.33.0.0.0.0.234.3304.22j10j1.33.0...0.0.idl4vmbwceo.
without even trying i could not help but notice several similarities between the fatal attraction germans had to hitler and the fatal attraction jehovahs witnesses have to their gods organization.. example:: toward the end of the documentary it explained that even when some germans finally began to realize that hitler was not the nice guy they thought he was, they still remained loyal to him because there was no one else to turn to.. who does that remind us of?.
don cameron.
so if its true that a new 2012 version of the new world translation is to be released at this year's dc what changes do you think they will have made?.
don't forget your square brackets for interpolations.. .
"this good news of the kingdom will be preached to all the [developed] world and then the end will come" - matt 24:14.
"they" are engaged in a fight with no return / "they" have to go all the way to the end - and this , because God predicted it
..
why is it "has the governing body changed its mind"???
first they replaced jesus and now even jehovah plays second fiddle.. "has the governing body changed its mind about the closeness of the great tribulation?
" asked brother pierce.
That's right - they have "their own" plan
and Jehovah has another one ! - to reveal who are they !

splane mentioned the predecessors of the gb at his speach at the annual meeting 2012.. this is too crazy ?!?
they become mad at all!:.
"some of these were archbishop agobard of lyons in the 9th century, peter.
All of those names are in the new WT on the Annual meeting with the disclaimer : We cannot say for sure which are of the anointed.
So I say : We cannot say for sure that the current GB are of the anointed....
I say: for sure they (the current GB) are NOT anointed , and also, they have lost before GOD !

there is much speculation about many aspects of the great tribulation.
since it is in god's word the bible that we are informed of this event, then we should allow him to give us any relevant information regarding that event, if that is his wish.. the scripture tells us, "for the sovereign lord jehovah will not do a thing unless he has revealed his confidential matter to his servants the prophets.
" (amos 3:7).
"Once the "man of lawlessness" is revealed, a decisive choice will have to be made by all concerned."
Hi ! I find that you are really a searcher
