  now this is weird, ever heard of the "mandela effect" ???

  i know how crazy it sounds but i got to tell you, this article about the governing body finally admitting the "faithful slave" was not divinely appointed by jesus in 1919 was epic to me.

  like a mandela effect feeling.

  Mandela Effect or not. It has been nearly three years since this statement in the Watchtower and very few are quoting it within the last year. Its not even on jwfacts.com yet. I realize it could just be oversight but it sure seamed like a Epic statement to me.

  "Finally, we examined why Jesus’ arrival to appoint the faithful slave over all his belongings did not occur in 1919 but will take place during the great tribulation. So, then, all three “whens” apply to the same future time period—the great tribulation. How does this adjusted view further affect our understanding of the illustration of the faithful slave?"

  All those years we have been giving them our belonging$. Maybe we can get our belonging$ back now that they admit they had no right to them. Is this not logical? They misrepresented themselves and admitted it, closed case. When did Jesus say to build Kingdom Halls? I thought he said my father does not dwell in hand made temples? Didn't the Israelites build hand made temples? What was his point? I thought they met in homes or outside in large groups by lakes and on mountains. I thought he healed and fed the people at no cost and said we could do greater works than he did. I thought he said he would send a helper, holy spirit and to have no leader but him. Don't think, just do, we will do the thinking for you, you can't understand Gods WORD on your own. God appointed us to lead you in 1919. Jesus is not your mediator, he is ours, we are yours. Drink the cool-aide... the door to heaven is shut, don't partake but be there to pass on dinner while we eat! Don't forget to touch the glass and pass. Go from door to door and pass judgment with a date stamped on it. Sounds like a different teaching to me... I want my belonging$ back. How about you? They admit they were not appointed over them so give them back!

  They went to JW.org because they are going to dump the Watchtower too, that's my guess.

  Right on Finkelstein ... It still gets me that I have not found this Watchtower quote anywhere online, including jwfacts.com or this website until very recently and it is on JW.org. Maybe I missed it in my search. I don't know but this is the quote again almost 3 years old now, like I said, maybe I missed something:

  "Finally, we examined why Jesus’ arrival to appoint the faithful slave over all his belongings did not occur in 1919 but will take place during the great tribulation. So, then, all three “whens” apply to the same future time period—the great tribulation. How does this adjusted view further affect our understanding of the illustration of the faithful slave?"

  Edit: Ok, I did find it on this site quoted a year ago just now: https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/378430001/1995-generation-change?page=6&size=10

  Great! So this is what growing old is going to be like? At least it will be entertaining... Maybe we got "Luke, I am your father from Tommy Boy" and Darth Vader actually said, "NO, I am your father." But I could have sworn he said, "Luke I am your father" as I said that jokingly all the time. Maybe I was copying Tommy Boy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TsI3lFHkU_s

  You nailed it TW but I would rather say the rank and file are under a spell and they are sleep walking. The are spiritually unconscious, poisoned, third eye blind. Thats my opinion.

  Isn't the Old King James the Bible most are quoting the lords prayer from? "Let thy will be done IN Earth?"

  When people recite this prayer, they say "Let thy Kingdom come" and "let thy will be done" quoting the old english of the King James.

  I have never heard anyone say, "Let thy will be done IN Earth." Have you? Maybe I wasn't paying attention I don't know but this really seams strange to me. Not only me, many others who have used the King James all their lives.

  Here is something fascinating. I have said the Lords Prayer many times in recovery group meetings. We always say, "Let they will be done ON Earth as it is in heaven."

  So I am reviewing evidence for this Mandela Effect and I find out all this time I have been saying it wrong. It is "Let they will be done IN Earth. Let they will be done IN Earth? Ever heard that before? I have not. Look it up in your old King James and check it out for yourself online: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+6%3A9-13&version=KJV

  Whats up DOC? Silly me, I happen to think this is a huge quote and why it is only now recently being quoted is huge. Maybe I missed something in my search but it is not on jwfacts.com so I bet he never read it. Are you telling me you read this quote and it was like no big deal? Its Epic to me! Laughable to say the least!

  "Finally, we examined why Jesus’ arrival to appoint the faithful slave over all his belongings did not occur in 1919 but will take place during the great tribulation.

  Yes, I understand CG and thank you. My question is more about the Mandela Effect. It seams to me nobody has noticed this Epic confession of the Governing Body. I searched google for this quote, "Finally, we examined why Jesus’ arrival to appoint the faithful slave over all his belongings did not occur in 1919 but will take place during the great tribulation." and NOTHING has showed up except a recent quote on this website and JW.org This happened almost three years ago and nobody has quoted it online? That seams very odd to me. Right now the Governing Body is probably trying to figure out how that got on JW.org Maybe I'm over thinking this crazy guy I don't know...

  I can not even find this above quote on jwfacts.com and it was printed in 2013??? Now how strange is that? Maybe I'm missing something here but I don't think so. This is very strange to me.
