so i'm thumbing through the new "silver sword" and i notice that in the appendix under "message of the bible" that it says, "about 1914 jesus hurls the serpent satan to the earth...." i can't remeber ever hearing the word "about" and 1914 placed together before in regards to this event.
are there any jwapologists, or anyone else for that matter, who have an explanation for this?.

"Yes. It was always said that Jesus was enthroned in October 1914, and THEN he started war in heaven. AFTER some time, Jesus won this war and cast Satan out of heaven to earth. And THEN Satan made the people start the first world war - which started in August 1914."
Oh, yes. This makes perfect sense. Wait..... whhhuuuuuutttt?????????

i noticed in the bible reading in titus this week that that they changed one instance of christ jesus to jesus christ.
it made me wonder why it was done and what benefit it could have in their doctrines..
hmmmm.... I always thought his middle name was Harvey. I've never heard Jesus T. Christ before, but I've heard Jesus H. Christ many times

Heck, since Satan is such a mighty foe that it took Jesus a couple years to get rid of him maybe since he's waged an attack on Heaven and broke back in. All those angels Rutherford was seeing in the 30's were actually demons. Then Jesus threw Satan back out again in the 40's leading to WWII. And they realizedwhat was going on so they stopped listening to them. Then Satan broke back in in the 50's. They wared a little more which was what caused Vietnam. Then Satan was really pissed, so he created LSD and the hippies, and the rest is history. Makes perfect sense to me....
we've discussed this on lots of threads, but i've noticed a few things lately.
they seem to be talking about the early days on a very regular basis, almost constantly.
the change to fds happens and this involved a dive into early history and a few knocks on russell.
They do what they want to. When you're directed by Holy Spirit, but not inspired, and directed by Angels, but not directed by Angels anything is possible. Maybe in these final days they will be directed by Jesus, but not by Jesus as to all the misinformation they've been given in the past.

What's the name of that book Blondie? I too am from a family with a "long theoctaic history". My great grandma became a witness in the early 1900's. My gransma just gave me all her duplicate booklets/ brochures/tracts/ programs etc. from the 30's through the 70's. It's so weird. I have these mixed feelings. I really appreciate and value them as family heirlooms. At the same time I realize the pain and suffering caused by what is contained in the publications. One minute I want to proudly display them in my personal library, but when i look at them sometimes i get the urge to burn them(of course I would never do that).
