Start of the Great Tribulation will be announced soon

by joey jojo in

at the 2021 annual meeting, samuel herd revealed new light and claimed the anointed will all have passed away before armageddon.

it has since been revealed that while they will die before armageddon, there will be some anointed still around that will witness the start of the great tribulation.. so the question is, how many years until the existing members of the governing body have passed away?.

im not a doctor, but based on their age and various stages of obesity, im thinking 10- 15 years- give or take, sounds about right.. with that in mind, the great tribulation could be announced any day.. the new understanding has now freed the org from the burden of having to identify a particular generation in relation to the date of armageddon.

As Simon said, the maths just doesn't work. I remember posting about this when I still thought it mattered; https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/14945/do-jws-still-believe-wt-version-144000

Oof! I was a different person then 🙄🤣

But honestly, I wish you a soft landing here and hope everyone gives you enough room to be yourself and get settled in.

Can you at least let us know if you're young? Middle aged? Senior?

Don't forget that the Bible has very little geographical, historical and scientific support for any of it's supernatural and miraculous claims.

None in fact.

If the crime of insult, which I agree is nuts, is enough for anyone to slap such a nasty label on a country then I think it speaks more about the intolerance of the person.

I'm curious. Which country are you from that you think you couldn't have that label stuck on you?

"Enjoy whatever shithole country you currently occupy, and please - stay there!"

Nothing wrong with Croatia, it's actually a beautiful European country. Why not keep your unattractive xenophobia to yourself?

You have nothing to apologise for. That Evans can trigger you like this is just disgraceful. He doesn't care how his behaviour continues to hurt people.

Wishing you well

Are Satan and demons able to create life?

by psyco in

aaron's rod became a big snake (exodus 7:8-10).. when something not alive, like dust, becomes alive, like a living person (genesis 7:2): is this not called "creation"?

so, when pharaoh's wise men, sorcerers, and magic-practicing priests of egypt also did the same (exodus 7:11, 12): how could we called this instead?

i read about some jws explaining it as a magic illusion.

i get all the good things about being in the cong, good social life lots of invites to bbqs and meals out.

lots of interesting gossip 🤣🤣🤣🤣.

I have more respect for a committed Jehovah's Witness than I do for you.

Not wasting my time on you anymore.
