It's not just 607 BCE
by Doug Mason in
1. watchtower
2. bible
its not just 607 bce.. to prove that joseph rutherford was anointed by jehovah god in 1919 ce, the governing body of jehovahs witnesses needs to tick every one of the following boxes as proven without question.. o nebuchadnezzar did go mad for seven years.. o the fulfilment upon nebuchadnezzar was itself a prophecy.. o the length of each year that nebuchadnezzar experienced madness was a prophetic year of 360 days.. o the state of a heathen king symbolised the state of jehovahs kingdom.. o each day of nebuchadnezzars 2520 day madness predicted a 2520 year hiatus in the operation of jehovahs kingdom towards earth.. o this 2520 year hiatus commenced two months after jerusalem was destroyed, when jews entered egypt following the murder of gedaliah.. o the land remained depopulated until jews returned in 537 bce.. o even though the land was now holding people, the seventy years did not end until they dedicated the altar later in 537 bce.. o the land was totally devoid of human habitation and their beasts for over 70 (jewish) years.. o this identifies the date of the starting point of the kingdoms 2520-year hiatus, dating the event as 607 bce.. o the 2520 year hiatus in the operation of jehovahs kingdom government ended in october 1914 ce.. o the restart of jehovahs kingdom rule was proven through people on earth declaring war on one another slightly earlier in august 1914 (instead of 1914 ushering in peace under the zionists , as had been expected by russell).. o the setting up of this kingdom under davids descendant resulted in spirit resurrection of most of his co-rulers.. o the heavenly kingdom government then set about looking for its earthly representative.. o in 1919 ce, jehovahs government selected rutherford as that representative.. o about 1930, rutherford discovered that christs parousia had not taken place in 1874, and amended its date to 1914 ce.. o people on earth can tell that jehovahs kingdom has now started its operation towards earth because of the ravaging wars, earthquakes, pestilences, famines, and murderous, deceitful, evil people that are tearing at the earth.

the world was at peace before jehovahs kingdom began to rule.. o the governing body inherits the anointing given to rutherford..

WOW!! The Finished Mystery SCAN showing Jesus was WORSHIPPED and was THE GOD!!!
by Lady Liberty in

2. bible
unbelievable!!.

just came across this tidbit from the finished mystery, from the organization, in the early years.

keep in mind that these bible students were supposedly selected out of all mankind on the earth to feed christs sheep at the proper time, with "spiritual food"...here is some of that "food" that was supposedly from christ himself:.

Most-Ignored Scriptures by JWs
by Mad Sweeney in
1. watchtower
2. bible
the watchtower has been known for over 130 years as a great scriptural cherry-picker.

they pick out disparate unrelated verses and combine them to support the wackiest of wacky doctrines.. on the other hand there are many scriptures they almost never address, whether because they contradict wt doctrine or because they simply don't have a clue what they mean or how to spin them to the wt advantage.. one of these is revelation 19:1 that mentions a "great crowd" "in heaven.

" the only time it is ever brought up it is dismissed.

Are you like Ivan Ilych?
by AK - Jeff in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
his reaction at the knowledge that he was mortal - was yours similar when you recognized that you would die?.

on some level it seems very difficult as a human being to accept one's mortality.

though we may acknowledge it verbally, we submerge our heads in the figurative sand when it comes to realistic acceptance.

The Story of Adam and Eve, Sexist, Egotistical and Guilt-Inducing
by sabastious in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
put yourself in the mind of an ignorant early human.

he can speak, he can understand his surroundings and can even chart the stars in the night sky.. .

one other thing this man can understand is injustice: when bad things happen to people who didnt do anything to deserve them.. .
