Yep. They moved the goal post. And Jehovah's Witnesses continue to chase
the carrot that dangle before them . They cant see that they are continuously bein' taken for a ride
on a bus goin' no where
Group One was told
" Before the last members of the generation that was alive in 1914 will have passed off the scene, all things foretold will occur, including the " great tribulation " in which the present wicked world will end.____Reasoning from the Scriptures Book pg 97
" some who saw the events of 1914 will also see the complete destruction of the present wicked world "____Reasoning from the Scriptures Book pg 200
And......
" The present wicked system of things, which extends world wide, entered its last days in 1914, and some of the generation alive then will also be on hand to witness its complete end in the "great tribulation "
And.......
" ( The " generation " that was alive at the beginning of fulfillment of the sign in 1914 is now well along in years. The time remaining must be very short. ______Reasoning from the Scriptures Book page 239
Now the WTS hopes group two will buy the same lie
I agree Vidiot
I would argue that the WTS was truly wrong in what they taught as truth about 1914
and the first group

Did anyone in the congregation discourage you from going to college?

i remember being out on service with an elder when i was 17. he asked me what i plan on doing after high school.

i told him i was thinking of going to college to be a teacher.

he then asked me, "do you think this system is going to be around that long"?

Three Elders in the Hall I attended all had children

that attended Universities, These Elders did not lose

thier position in the Hall

.

.

Sadly, the children who took the advice of these elders

now work along side thier parents at the nearest

chicken shack

When I finished High School , I threw my diploma in the cedar chest

went straight to work in Textile that paid wages decent enough to build homes

and send kids off to college and save for retirement

.

Then times changed, Jobs were outsource

higher education became more of a necessity

.

I knew my daughter would need more than a 12th grade education

to make a decent wage

.

The Sister who held my Bible study

fed me the lines " Time is so short, the end might be here by then "

and ALLLL that other crap

.

Even the Elders would spout that WTS crap from the podium

I could tell that they didn't even buy the " The end is soon " Tripe

.

.

So how could they tell me what to do

when they had children of thier own who held

college degrees

.

.

And it wasn't my imagination

that those brothers were pleased in thier childrens achievements

The Apostasy Within
by Ultimate Axiom in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
in the latest watchtower (july 15, 2014, page 14, paragraph 10) it says; today, jehovahs people are not often confronted with apostasy within the congregation.

still, when exposed to unscriptural teachings, regardless of the source, we must decisively reject them.. so, not often, but occasionally jws are exposed to apostasy within the congregation, and they are instructed to decisively reject it.

as we all know, the vast majority of the apostasy they are exposed to comes from the governing body.. i am meeting up soon with an old friend from the 1970s who i havent seen for decades, who is still an active jw, and who would really like to hear what i think about things.

Jehovah' Witnesses should be so " Happyfied "

Hello Make Lemonade

everything the WTS qouted can be proved wrong

" Jehovah's Witnesses have suggested dates that turned out to be wrong "

Jehovah's Witnesses did not suggest but state dates as a fact :

" The year 1914 is marked by Bible prophecy. For details regarding the chronology, see pages 95-97 under the main heading "Dates" . The correctness of the date is shown by the fact that world conditions foretold to mark this time period have come to pass scince 1914 exactly as foretold. "____Reasoning book page 239

.

.

" Never in these instances however , did they presume to originate predictions " in the name of Jehovah ", never did they say " these are the words of Jehovah "

Yes they did. they claim the lies taught come straight from Jehovah

" Thus what is taught is not from men but from Jehovah " ___Sept 15, 2010 WT para. 8 page 13

.

.

" Jehovah's spirit does not mean those now serving as Jehovah's Witnesses are inspired "

That ain't what they wrote in the Reasoning book

" If someone says____

'Do you have the holy spirit ?

You might reply : ' Yes, and that is why I have come to your door today '

.

.

Silly Dubs, you can't separate inspiration from Holy spirit

They know if they out right claim inspiration on top of failed predictions

that is a nail in thier coffin

.

.

And that was a lie they told in they reasoning book

The only reason they come to your door

is to make their qouta on thier field service reports

Ultimate Axiom, you miss my point. I agree

Jehovah's Witnesses have followed false prophets

.

.

On page 133 in the Reasoning book

they describe what Jehovah's Witnesses do as the mark of a True Prophet ( Without quotations )

.

.

" Evidently," They are tellin' lies as representatives of Jehovah

Hananiah played that same game

" scince Jehovah's Witnesses are not prophets , according to thier own words . They are not inspired and need to make corrections "___Make Lemonade

.

.

As we all have come to know. Ain't no inspiration in this so -called religion

but they do claim to meet all the qualifications of a " True prohet "

.

.

" If any individual or organizations claim to represent God but decline to use God's personal name, and make it a practice to express thier own opinions on matters, are they measuring up to this important qualification of a true prophet ?_____Reasoning book page 133
