w80 7/1 p. 31 - questions from readers - why does the november 15, 1979, issue of the watchtower (pages 26, 27) speak of the “new covenant” being near the end of its operation, when hebrews 13:20 speaks of this covenant as being “an everlasting covenant”?
OOPS!!
(Jeremiah
31:31, 33) “Look! There are days coming,” is the utterance of
Jehovah, “and I will conclude with the house of Israel and with the
house of Judah a new covenant; “For
this is the covenant that I shall conclude with the house of Israel
after those days,” is the utterance of Jehovah. “I will put my
law within them, and in their heart I shall write it. And I will
become their God, and they themselves will become my
people.144,000 immortal Melchizedek-type king/priests”

"The Watchtower stated: "Evidently the new covenant is nearing the end of its operation for the purpose of producing 144,000 spiritual Israelites....When the last of these approved spiritual Israelites cease to be ‘men’ because of earthly death and a resurrection to a share in the heavenly kingdom, then the mediatorship of Jesus Christ will cease also. Note that The Watchtower did not say that the benefits of this new covenant would cease. Those who live on earth will benefit in an everlasting way from the fact that this new covenant fulfilled its purpose in producing 144,000 spiritual sons of God who will reign as joint heirs with Christ in the heavens."

moving on is the hardest thing anyone has to cope with.. i have officially left the org.
and now it feels my family have been waiting to do this for a long time, officially shunning me, even though they were practically doing this whilst i was still in.. it feels like i've accomplished a victory and at the same time i feel guilty i was tangled up in communication with someone who "hid who they were" claiming to leak information from bethel.
i got the call from the man who i thought i worked with.
The WTBTS chariot has updated its business strategies, been restructured, remodelled, and has/will replace old-school GB members with more business/liberal-minded ones.
In other words, the "Society's" radical metamorphosis and "new understandings" are going to continue, until the powers-that-be are satisfied with the updated, 21st century business plan.

A prominent evangelical on TV recently stated that World War 3 will be here within the next 5 years - unless there's a huge resurgence worldwide in Christianity.
In other words, more financial contributors to his denomination.
amazing new light in the latest morning worship by gary breaux.
the gb "never lie or deceive us.
we can have absolute trust in the governing body".. he then makes a very helpful point, so as to avoid being deceived and avoid lies.
Hey Gary, your Governing Body told 3 lies regarding just one Scipture.
The evil slave is alive & kicking - in the JW HQ.
w10 4/15 p. 11 par. 17 - "How will Jehovah use his holy spirit in the coming new world? That spirit will be the force behind the new scrolls that will be opened at that time. (Rev. 20:12) What will these contain? Evidently, Jehovah’s detailed requirements for us during the thousand years."
Nowhere in the scripture does it say "new" scrolls.
Nowhere in the scripture does it say that the scrolls contain "new teachings" or "detailed requirements" - they contain judgements.
Nowhere in the scripture does it say the scrolls are opened during the millennium. Verses 1-10 show that the scrolls are opened after Satan is destroyed.
go listen to the opening verse of the smallest man who ever lived..
The persecution of "Jehovah's people" (not Christians) has begun!
“melchizedek, king of salem, priest of the most high god”.
unique features of melchizedek’s priesthood .
5. jesus, “a priest forever in the manner of melchizedek” .
It says this:
4. “Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God”
Unique features of Melchizedek’s priesthood
5. Jesus, “a priest forever in the manner of Melchizedek”
Jesus is given the supreme accolade as being a king/priest like Melchizedek, but even greater - for eternity!
If I was one of the 144,000 JW wannabe Melchizedek types, I'd be pretty peeved that I wasn't even hinted at!
C'mon WTBTS/Evil slave - your Writing Committee needs to get its act together.

watchtower august 15th 1935 - "...the greatest of all tribulations mentioned in the scriptures must come after the great multitude appears and must be that which is mentioned by christ jesus as “tribulation such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time.” that tribulation period began with the “day of jehovah”, to wit, in 1914, when the war started against satan’s organization in heaven, and reaches the great climax at the time of the battle of armageddon, the great day of god almighty.
110 years - and counting!.
other denominations claim the great tribulation is only going to last for 7 years.
