  It means they can keep this thing going for another 40 years without having to change it again.

  So... Are they done printing the number of partakers?

  by thedepressedsoul in

  2. bible

  during the wt study yesterday i had a confused look on my face the whole meeting.

  more of a, wtf, face.

  one paragraph says, "therefore,the number of partakers does not accurately indicate the number of anointed ones left on earth.".

  Another generation....

  by joey jojo in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  it has been 21 years since the 1995 article that pretty much buried the idea of the '1914 generation'.. remember those guys?

  the ones born in 1914 that would still be alive when the end of the system arrived.. i'm glad i'm old enough to remember going from door to door, preaching this belief.

  the reason i say that is because i have a lot of 'still in' jw friends and family.

  You are 100% right about the old ones dying off and the R&F losing that institutional memory.

  But they also count on the training we all got to just go with what they say because they are speaking for god.
  Reminds me of this from 1984.

  BLACKWHITE: Applied to a Party member, it means a loyal willingness to say that black is white when Party discipline demands this. But it means also the ability to believe that black is white, and more, to know that black is white, and to forget that one has ever believed the contrary. This demands a continuous alteration of the past, made possible by the system of thought which really embraces all the rest, and which is known in Newspeak as doublethink.

  All the reasoning is suspect, the logic is full of holes, and the arguments are false.

  I HATE the WT - but I don't think those things are cool - and I know they are Counter Productive.

  Does not make anyone question the GB or their beliefs. Just makes them think they are getting the persecution that "bible" says they would get.

  New Light - Two Sticks in Ezekiel - July 2016 Watchtower

  by Listener in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  ezekiel 37:15-17 prophesies about two sticks being joined together to become 1. one stick represented the two tribe kingdom of judah and the other stick represented the 10 tribe of israel (ephraim).

  the article explains how the coming together of these two sticks meant the reuniting of these tribes in 537 bce.the modern day fulfillment was previously taught to mean that the anointed had once again come together in unity in these last days.the july watchtower now explains that one stick, the stick of judah, represents the anointed and the other stick, the stick of ephraim, represents the other sheep.

  they further explain that since 1919 god's people have gradually reunited to become one flock.they are now saying that the other sheep are represented by 10 tribes of israel.

  Hey PROLOGS - When Splain said they were done with types and antitypes - what he was actually saying was that they were done with the ones they didn't care about anymore.

  IT'S the WT Circling the Waggons time, closing the Barn Doors, and making its Last Stand.

  Keep those in in - and let's not worry about getting new ones.
