  Remember the Revelation book?

  by wozza in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i recall when it was released ,that's when i was a drone, how excited i felt at the prospect of reading it and formulating ways to sell it at the homes in my area.. i thought, finally a book to explain the last book in the bible and indeed one that the churches seemed to want to leave alone!.

  i sold quite a few probably because of my enthusiasm and can still remember clearly the first day when i went knocking on doors with it ,and it's been decades since.. but over time it lost it's shine and my mind started to question the explanations in it due to the scene of other things being changed in the jw beliefs.. do you remember they flogged that book so many times in the book studies even when it was found to have "newer light " eclipsing it!.

  who else remembers the printed pages with the official corrections to insert into the book ,so many that the book collapsed to be of no relevance anymore really.....what an embarrassment!.

  Yes I remember, still have old and new versions covered in dust in my museum (or should I say graveyard?). It was by far my favorite book and I was well prepared during book study evenings.

  All the prophecies, history, angels, demons, plagues, heavenly battles and visions of paradise were food for my imagination and hunger for that special feeling of having THAT spiritual insight, carefully hidden for satan's worldly system and the gentiles. God, was I brainwashed!! Yet, I admit it was exciting to be in the cult at that time.

  I sincerely thought the Revelation book was the Wt's opus magnus, the one and only red pill for any christian. Couldn't see through the fake Rutherford era fulfillments yet, ignored it and thought the bigger picure still made perfect sense. Later the whole 1914 debacle became more clear to me, THIS wasn't marginal and couldn't be ignored! The whole thing turned out to be a lie and a placebo, New Jerusalem came crushing down hard but it still took me a few years to take a second red pill, say bye bye to the bOrg and return to reality.

  Needless to say The Matrix trilogy is my favorite movie...ever!

  this morning my wife made the comment ... "we'll probably experience famine next.".

  i don't know that she'd come up with this on her own.

  has anyone else heard a jw talking about this?.

  No, but it's Revelation style wishful thinking at its best. St. John would be proud!

  RubaDub, yes, Marathon Man. A visit to the dentist would never be the same again. Especially back then in the late 70's, that whole movie with all that nazi and secret service paranoia was so raw and scary in a realistic way. When that nazi doctor Szell (Josef Mengele) was reckognised in public by that old Jewish lady who survived the camps, brrr...

  Thanks Gorby, I've been following this for years and was waiting for the University's results. I just watched the late news broadcast and oh how Dutch headquarters keep on failing. First they refused to cooperate with Reclaimed Voices (who acted on behalf of hundreds of abuse victims) and rather would handle the individual cases internally and seperately (wtf?), not reckognising themselves in such 'high' numbers. Then the Dutch Lower House asked Utrecht University to investigate the matter and now they want to stop publication???

  What a bunch of hypocrite COWARDS! They don't love the truth, they HATE it!

  Talking Snake

  by NoAbuse in

  2. friends

  jehovahs witness yearbook, 1967 p.105: cameroon"on one occasion a large crowd was following a man who had a talking serpent.

  the serpent gave greetings and spoke in foreign tongues....a brother was passing by, attracted by the commotion, he went to the house to see what was happening.

  as soon as he entered the room the serpent stopped talking.

  i am so sick of this cult, this religion has such a grip on her.

  since i left in 2014, things just are getting progressively worse.

  and she it's just getting deeper and deeper.

  Good to vent, I feel sorry for you. Such a situation can be suffocating. Not so long ago you wrote: 'Ya, my life with my wife is shite about 15% of the time and the other 85% of the time we have a great relationshiop.'

  15% doesn't sound like total hell to me but ok, who am I to judge. Now if there's still (some) love and hope for the better, is it possible to plant seeds of doubt in her mind in order to 'wake' her up or at least slow her down from her crazy brainwashed jw life? Some on this forum have done that, a bit of 1914 here, a bit of ARC there...and with succes.

  All the best gte!
