  .......do as we SAY!

  w02 3/1 p. 17 par. 16 - "Consider how many....speculate recklessly in the stock market, dreaming of making a fortune."

  At 4 mins 9 seconds in the video, the Borg quotes the apostle Paul's advice about giving, but throughout their history they've never exhorted "career JW's" to follow his example - to earn their own living while preaching the good news!

  I'm just waiting for the WTBTS to join the evangelical's gravy-train on TV, and start up JW-TV.

  link to article .

  a spanish court ordered the newspaper to publish the reply of the jehovah’s witnesses to a defamatory 2022 article.

  the court found the newspaper has been fed false information by an association of disgruntled former witnesses and has uncritically published it.. .

  If it looks like a cult, speaks like a cult, and acts like a cult - then it's a cult!

  Millions of ex-JW's will testify to the fact of their being "stoned to death."

  Why do Catholics pray to Mary/saints?

  by BoogerMan in

  a very good friend of many years told me that he prays to mary and makes requests.

  i didn't try to discuss/debate the subject - his choice - but wondered how catholics would view these scriptures: .

  (john 14:6) jesus answered, “i am the way and the truth and the life.

  (John 16:23) In that day you will no longer ask me anything. Very truly I tell you, my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.

  (1 Timothy 2:5) For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus

  This Generation/ 1975

  by TxNVSue2023 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was born in 1977 & came in as a convert in 2003 --- so i have no idea what went on before my time.. however i have been familiar with the scriptures of "nobody knows the day or hour" & " it will come as a theif in the night" meaning that it was sure but unpredictable time.

  how could anyone belive that anyone else ( organization or not) put a date on it?.

  also what was the significance of 1975 anyway?

  @ TxNVSue2023 - Most of us here thought the same as you - that the "slave's" interpretation of Matthew 24 had a "greater fulfilment" for our time.

  Regarding the great tribulation at Matthew 24:21, Jesus said "....no, nor will occur again".

  How can something which Jesus said would never be repeated, possibly have a greater fulfillment?

  Which part of "never" is too difficult for the G.B. to understand?

  Jesus also said, "Truly I say to you that this (not "that") generation will by no means pass away until all these things happen. (Matthew 24:34)

  The generation he was speaking of did see all these things occur, and then the "end" did come in - 70 C.E.

  Thanks Atlantis.
  

  LOL - The daily text and the next Watchtower are "confidential." 🤣

  The org's woeful attempts at building "anticipation & excitement" are excruciating.

  (Revelation 11:3) "I will cause my two witnesses to prophesy for 1,260 days dressed in sackcloth.. . ."

  (Revelation 14:6) "And I saw another angel flying in midheaven, and he had everlasting good news to declare to those who dwell on the earth, to every nation and tribe and tongue and people. "

  Such a "new light" would confirm the Annual Meeting's "new light" regarding "great tribulation repenters" being saved.

  this is going to break the hearts of a lot of uber-jw's!

  reddit has now removed the video link of samuel herd telling jw's they will no longer have to report time or placements - just tick a box which says "active.".

  @ Riley - "There was no sane reason that anyone should be out there."

  But the "slave" was quick to stop every JW doing the worldwide preaching work for many months because the governments would penalise them there was a flu-like virus going around.
