  Is 1914 date flawed?

  by badboy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  reasoning from the scriptures says on pp95-97 that months consist of 30 days.. years therefore would be 360 days long.. i have calcaluted(sic)that for every year in the `western'calender such a 360 day calender would fall 4/5 days depending on whether it was a leapyear or not.

  now over a period of 2520 years,a 360 day calender would be 9,940 days behind a 364/5 day calender(25 years!

  ) therefore 2520 years according to book of daniel would fall in 1889!.

  Hello

  Yes 1914 is the biggesr crock....In their history of arriving upon 1914, this was by pyramidiology something they later learned to be demonic therefore did away away with it. BUT they kept the date. GO FIGURE!!!!

  Christ BEGAN his rule when he said "ALL authority in heaven and earth has been given me." Matthew 28:18 How much authority does one need to be reigning?
  That started when he ascended back to his father 40 days later.

  The famous scriptures the WTBS uses to prove "HE SAT" til 1914 is Psalms 110:1,2.... Yes, he says "SIT at my right hand" Doesn't mean he is not reigning as he is sitting.
  Notice he says "til I place your enemies as a stool for your feet."

  NOW read 1 Corinthians 15:25. "He would RULE as king until ALL enemies are put under his feet."

  So....
  He was ruling as he was sitting...

  If he was waiting acording to the WTBS til ALL enemies are under his feet then.... technically he IS STILL NOT KING. Cause the LAST enemy is "death" is it not? And we are still awaiting its destruction. Being thrown into the "lake of fire."

  It is quite simple my friend
  May you have peace

  Amen my sista:

  Hows it goin????

  For anyone that may be lurking or new here that is asking, seeking, or seeing that what they have been taught their whole life inside the organization is starting to crumble.

  They (the WTBS) call themselves "the truth." The ONLY VISIBLE way to Jehovah.
  You have been misled!!!

  There is only ONE truth, YES. But it is HE, the Christ that we must turn to to lead us as our shephard.
  Pray for holy spirit to come upon you to lead you and teach you.
  Truth doesn't keep changing as do doctrines of the WTBS.

  Entering into the new covenant and coming into union with our Lord is not JUST for 144,000, it is for ANYONE. John 6:48-58
  As ALL of Israel were in the covenant, but AMONG them were the priests. If you want to "live forever" (have life in yourselves) as the WT promises then you MUST "eat the flesh of the son of man and drink his blood." John 6:53

  By continuing to "load down the flock" with heavy burdens and laws that THEY themselves make and refuse to carry.......
  and prophecy continually dates, times and seasons that do not come true.....
  by "shutting up the kingdom" by not allowing sheep to enter the covenant by eating AND DRINKING.....
  by NOT showing the TRUE identifying mark of LOVE......
  by JUDGING, not showing MERCY, COMPASSION or FORGIVENESS......

  They make themselves "Pharisees" that have hearts that are "white washed graves" and inside "dead mens bones."

  EZEKIEL 34 and JEREMIAH 23

  They make themselves "false Prophets" that are "blind guides."

  May you have peace and blessings

  Hello Bill Parker:

  My dear brother. That is a whole lotta "kool-aid" to be gulpin down at once. At least swallow in-between the poison.

  My dear one, you continue to alow yourself to be misled...
  This info on the "generation" is NOTHIG NEW. A few changed words to try to cover-up the false predictions that continue and it sounds convincing.

  All the scriptures you quoted are excellent I must say! And YES, they do apply. Only not as your have it, "to the world"...They apply as always to ISRAEL. Thats who the prophets were talking about. Those supposedely that "belonged to Jah" and had left him. Apostate Israel as a WHOLE.
  So when making this application, you CANNOT apply it to the world, but instead to "WITHIN" your own people who call themselves Israel, but do not NOT only live under 'the new covenant' they are NOT even ALLOWED to be in the covenant. What blaphemey on their part!
  If this organization professes to be "THE TRUTH", to possess the "priests", to be the "covenant" (only a few which is NOT scriptural my brother) then everything that applies to Israel MUST apply to the WTBS!

  Please do not allow yourself to continue to be led by man and "trusting in them" where there is NO salvation! Psalms 146:3

  Instead there is ONE TRUTH and is he at John 14:6 and John 5:39&40!
  Come to him. Matthew 11:28-30

  The Key To Happiness is...........

  ........good health and a bad memory.

  i heard that recently and it made think of the many of us who have suffered in our years of association with the wts.

  trying to cope with a traumatic past is very difficult.

  Hello ISP:

  Wanted to say something in response to your statement on "The key to happiness"....

  I have come to learn lately that in order to have TRUE happiness one MUST be "a giver"...giving from the heart, not out of compulsion or obligation. Remember, "There is MORE happiness in GIVING than in RECEIVING."

  Giving of ourselves in whatever gifts we have been given is what brings happiness and joy.

  Just a thought

  What did you do to free your mind from WBTS??

  by Nicolas in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i ask you this because i saw a lot of hypocrisy in the org but i still have sometime this old fear of armageddon with a feeling a culpability.

  should i do some research on my own about all the lies of the wbts?

  what did you do to find a goal in your life?

  Hello Nicolaus:

  Coming to the understanding that the organization is NOT who they say they are, THE TRUTH, doesn't take too long. BUT LETTING GO truly in your heart is difficult and takes time. I was raised my whole life in the org and came out at 36. FEAR, GUILT and FAMILY is some pretty tuff baggage. With time, it heals. Only with continuous prayers in my case, that are answered daily.

  Suggestion: Do not worry about the research. In your heart continue praying for truth. Do not blame Jah for the fact that the adversary posed as "an angel of light" and misled even US for a time. Use what we were taught and LIVE IT. As the saying goes, "Do as they say, NOT as THEY (the org) do!"
  Remember we are not under mans laws, domination. LOVE is the genuine motivating factor to follw.

  Also, remember JOHN 5: 39 and 40. There is only ONE way to LIFE.
  Also, there is ONLY one truth. It is a he! JOHN 14:6.

  Pray for the helper, the holy spirit, to guide you in your walk and teach you all things. Listen with your spiritual eyes and ears to hear what the spirit is saying.

  May you have peace

  Hello Serena:

  My name is Kim and I post as "JUSTAMOM".

  I feel for your situation right now that you are torn with.
  May I ask you, Fellowship is important, yes. But do you feel you have to join or go to a "CHURCH", building, to get the true encouragement you need?

  Remember the encouragement at GALATIANS 5:1. And since we have come out of such a "great bondage" under man in the organization, why put ourselves 'back under' man again?

  The true church that Christ formed were "people", they were the Church, the temple NOW that Jah's spirit dwells in. Not something handmade. ACTS 17:24,25.

  1CORINTHIANS 3:16

  Pray that Jah through his son send you the help you need and the direction needed to strenghthen and upbuild you spiritually.
  There are people out there, NO not the majority, but there are some, unlike what we have been taught in the org, who truly love our Lord and master and will be a support in that for you. Pray that our Father send them to you. Listen to the direction of the spirit and you will find joy, peace, and comfort.

  I pray that you find that.
  We are here for you also

  Ex-Witnesses in Oregon?

  by CatholicGuy in

  2. friends

  i voluntarily disassociated from the jws in 1980. i was actively involved in ministry to jws and ex-jws for the next 10 years.

  the past 10 years or so i've moved on with my life and lost touch with much of what was happening with the watch tower society and ex-witnesses.

  of course, growing up in the witnesses leaves its imprint on you.

  Hello:

  My family and I live in Mt. Shasta, Ca. It is a little over a hour from Medford, OR.

  We came out almost 4 years ago. The spirit opened our eyes to THEM and the truth about them almost over night. We left immediately.
  Sort-of-like Lot and his family leaving Sodom and Gomorrah.

  We are here for our brothers and sisters that need help, encouragement and fellowship.

  Reasons why its so hard to break from the WTS

  by Leander in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm still sitting on the fence trying to figure out which direction to go in.

  i think one of the reasons i have'nt left yet is because of the fact that i'm not entirely sure that the wts is really not god's organization.. some of the reasons why i feel that way is because of their insight on the scripture.

  i've never heard of any other religion attempt to decipher the prophecies in the book of daniel and revelations.

  Hello Leander

  I just wanted to share some thoughts and scriptures that I found helpful in my 'coming out.'

  First, if you are NOT sure, then continue in prays "seeking, knocking and asking" for truth, it WILL be opened to you. That is, IF, you really are asking and WANT to hear the answer, it will be given.

  Understanding first who really is behind this WTBS is a true eye awakening. Of course, for many sheep that NEED to be led is where GALATIANS 4 comes in. If our faith is not to the point where we truly understand what "walking by faith and NOT by sight is" what "worshipping in spirit and truth" really is...then "under men in charge" is where we will remain.

  Remember, the adversary posses as "an angel of light." So he and what he produces, propanganda, religion, etc....will look as close to the real thing as possible without it being such. Remember he can even mislead chosen ones. So it will look and feel like the real thing, but be spiritually detrimental.
  There is only ONE TRUTH and it is not a where. It is found at John 14:6 and it is HE who is the truth. He also says and invites each of us to : MATTHEW 11:28-30, John 10, John 6:48-58, Luke 11:13,....come to HIM, enter this new covenant, remain in it, ask for holy spirit to come upon you and lead you. (1John 2:26-28)
  We have been taught something very confusing. We are told that ALL of Gods people can have holy spirit if they pray for it, yet on the other hand we are told that NO YOU CAN'T unless your anointed.
  So, which is it? Is there truly a mans number that says only 144,000 can receive holy spirit. Because the great crowd HAVE IT ALSO, because they "stand before the throne dressed in white robes."
  And where might that throne be?? Revelation 19:1 gives you the clue.

  Notice in John 6:48-58 ANYONE is invited into this covenant of eating and drinking, not just 144,000.
  In the wilderness (1Cor.10:1-) ALL of Israel ate and drank, yet not ALL were priests were they? Eating and drinking doesn't make an invidual "anointed." The 12 apostles "ate and drank" with Jesus the night before he died and they hadn't "received" holy spirit until 50 days later at pentecost. So......

  just someting encouraging that helped me and my family to start with.
