JoenB75 - "For some odd reason, Russia is always a bad guy in modern Western apocalyptic groups ..."
They are very convenient villains, aren't they?
jw.org is on collision course with russia.
the may wt study edition is full of prophesy related to the time of the end and what we have read so much in isaiah and jeremia bookstudy publications.. they found their enemy again.
jw.org needs enemy's to exist.

with the most recent investigative news report show entitled "the witnesses" i noticed a number of posters whose family members are pimi refer to such shows as "apostate lies.
" even the governing body (possibly loesch) made such a statement (possibly on jw broadcasting).
i was thinking of how to reply to such a statement.. first, ask "who is the apostate?
"We endeavor to report it to the police..."
...By making an anonymous tip...
...from a pay phone...
...in a neighboring town...
...completely aware that the authorities hardly ever investigate such tips because a) they're sadly lacking in needed information, and b) quite often turn out to be steaming horseshit.
And the clueless rank-and-file loyalists are none the wiser, believing the Org's actions on the matter are totally on the up-and-up.
with the recent blood baths we have seen in this forum it got me wondering of how you can objectively understand it and more importantly not let it affect you if you so choose.
what i write is not meant to be taken as gospel truth since there is no gospel truth nor is it my intention to get on my soap box since i left it when i walked out of the kingdom hall.
most of what i have to say is subjective based on personal experience and i feel no need or desire to debate anyone about anything i write.
JWD...
...putting the fun in dysfunctional.
they'll write pages and pages of stuff and yet they don't have any idea.. here's a paragraph from their latest speculations on future events, bolding is mine.. a prophecy recorded by ezekiel gives some insight into what may happen during the last days of the king of the north and the king of the south.
if we view the prophecies of ezekiel 38:10-23; daniel 2:43-45; 11:44–12:1; and revelation 16:13-16, 21 as speaking about the same time period and events, it appears that we can expect the following developments.. that's an awful lot of assumptions to make.
what they've done is picked out various scriptures from different parts of the bible and now state that they may or may not be talking about the same events.
Fred Franz left no protege, and Ted Jaracz used 9-11 to purge out all the creative thinkers...
...so there's no one left to give the WTS's End-TImes script a page-one rewrite.
All they can do is keep doubling down on what they got.

The Org must've been super-relieved when Russia started turning back into a "bad guy" in the press.

" even the governing body (possibly loesch) made such a statement (possibly on jw broadcasting).

"Everything bad you hear about us is false!...
...Even the stuff that's true!!!"
where does one begin ?.
jehovah`s witnesses pride themselves as being a bible based religion ,that their beliefs and practices are all bible based ?.
words & phrases jehovah`s witnesses use or have used that are not in the bible.. organization.
Basically, if Christendom says "zig", the Watchtower zags...
...I mean, jeezus, it's almost a reflex action at this point
this letter was put out right when the series aired.
seems they have "disfellowshipped" reporters pretty much in the eyes of their followers.
public information desk: as of july 1, 2019, a public information desk (pid) was established to handle communication with news media, academic institutions, and government agencies.
This is telling...
"...when elders learn that a publisher has granted such an interview, they should immediately inform PID."
Talk to the press, and you're in trouble.
i was informed today by a jw that the watchtower doesn't use images and propaganda to instil fear.
i would really like to see a compilation of all their armageddon illustrations.
maybe a thread or web page already exists that had this content.. the one i am really wanting is the most recent picture of the witnesses in the basement during the tribulation.. this will be a massive help so thank you..
Meh.
Easier to just watch Roland Emmerich movies.
