it's incredible how this cover, and also this "series" of watchtower's is burned into my mind.
i was almost 5 years old when these were released.
“1914 and you” — may 1, 1984 watchtower.
LHG;
They cant tolerate anyone waking up or showing any kind of intelligence.
This is what makes me so mad.
They(borg) think they can just lead people by the nose & hope they(sheeple) never use their heads & do any critical thinking skills or research.
The hope people stay blind and uneducated. The Borganization knows exactly what they are doing.
Infuriating.
the ot of wing commander made me think about the following.. i was born in 1970, 4th generation jw.
in the 70's i got the indirect message of 1975, and in the early 80's we were promissed a paradise were we could life for ever!
this all combined with the 1914 doctrine.. it was all about show activity and works, that lead to a reward, the paradise earth.. i'm curious about the jw's of later years and the current "generation z".. we don't visit the hall, maybe once in a year.
Sadly,,,many old school long-lifer JWs will never see Armageddon. Because its never going to happen.
Thats the sad reality.
the new class action lawsuit against the watchtower for having covered up child sexual abuse will begin in court on may 13-14-15, 2024 in the province of ontario, canada.
it is not the same as in the province of quebec because the laws aren't the same.
i don’t have more details.
Biahi;
The couple in Calgary, AB Canada?
I believe you are correct. This lawsuit is in Toronto,ON. Guttierez are in Calgary.
Not,,that that would be or make any difference.
hello all.. i could use some help identifying the title of a wt book that i read back in the early 90's.
it was an older book when i read it.
i wish that i could recall more than i do.
Yes. The Proclaimers book was in 1993 released.
Way later after Divine Purpose. But I still Got my original copy of Proclaimers.
Pristine condition. & 30 years later too!!!
Kind of depressing in a way yet too. Years and decades passing by.
🙄

Ahh yes the Proclaimers book.
I still have my original copy of when they were first released. Its in pristine condition.
Its a matter of time before the Borg puts this book in the "apostate" list.
from the earliest of times of the catholic church's ecumenical councils were used to make major changes to its doctrinal direction.
decisions were made by bishops, they were ratified by the pope ... and it was done.
and the laity had to accepted them or not.. and while splinter catholic religions accepted most of these councils, non-trinitarian faiths which developed latter (of which jehovah's witnesses are apart) did not.
""...the GB and everyone else"".
S'bout right.
i was reading a bart ehrman book, .
armageddon: what the bible really says about the end.
no, i won't bore you with complicated various theories i was reading.
When you realize that you are not actually guaranteed another minute on this earth,,,every human being whos ever lived before you,,present time and after you is in the same position.
You can ""go"" at any moment in this life.
Your life is ""finite"". All we have is the ""now"". We are on borrowed time,, in a way in this ""conscious"" life we have.
You see,, thats why the Borg hates this kind of thinking. Their objective is to keep the $heeples donating,,infantilized & depending on them. Uncertainty.
Endless,, repetitive hampster wheel.
Armageddon,, paradise,, resurrected. Dangle that carrot & yank.!!

If I had a quarter for every time I heard a JW say ""I thought I would never grow 'old' in this system"" ,,I would be a millionaire.
Thats part of the indoctrination. Thats why they never want you to miss a meeting. To keep that urgency up.
quote from that world wide resolution: .
that, in order to prevent the destruction of the nations by their own means in war, the nations further refused the surrender of their sovereignty to god’s messianic kingdom by setting up a society of nations, which, since 1945, has taken the form and the name of the united nations, with international headquarters at new york city.
this international organization stands for world sovereignty by political men.
Please hang on to your Revelation Climax book. 1988 original edition.

Another reason why the Borg cant scrap the 2 class system.
Its because of ""fear"".
Fear of Armageddon,,the big A.
Uncertainty. Will I make it? ?? Will I make it??
If you scrap the 2 class system and JWs realize they ""could be"" heavenly bound,,one realizes that they are going to die anyway and that heaven is their destination.
Take away Armageddon because they realize ""why put on the fear & uncertainty when,,,OH I'm going to die??'"
When you realize that there's no having to ""work"" for your salvation
I'm just pure speculation,,,expect the the gaslighting,.fearmongering to ramp up.. With the continued US vs Them mentality. You have ti earn your salvation through the big A.
Im just speculating of course.!!
