not sure if anyone mentioned this yet, but yeah.
they just posted up the new watchtower...with the confusing new information.. time for me to go dive into this "new light" and try to see what sense it makes.
of course cedars already nicely did a run down for us.. .
Another change: they now portray Jesus' "evil slave" Mt 24:48-51 remarks as a hypothetical reminder of encouragement to the "faithful slave." And, those that disagree with their doctrines are simply "apostates." pp. 24
So, they know to take the "evil slave" out of any discussions. Cautiously they realize they're at risk of being painted with the "evil slave" image.
Very interesting!
i'm interested in how we all view the bible?.
let me start by offering three different options:.
a.. a book that at best may have cultural or historical interest but that is it.. b.. a divinely inspired guide that i consult to make important life choices.
Its prescience thousands of years prior to scientific discovery is one of the things that separate the Hebrew narrative from the entire rest of religious and secular writings , that's ancient and modern .
i just started reading "a.d. - after disclosure" by richard dolan.
it is an attempt to rationally predict what will ( or would, depending on your viewpoint) happen when authorities around the world admit that extraterrestrials exist and first contact happens.. will markets crash?
will religions collapse?
Physical intelligence had to start somewhere; it's plausible we are the first. Being first is a common occurrence OFTEN.
It does sound amazingly fortunate. That too happens OFTEN.

@Meta
Michio Kaku (physicist) likes to talk about these things. It's interesting, but I'm more excited about the things happening at CERN. There's going to be a watershed of discoveries coming.
Also, there's a new book coming, "Darwin's Doubt." Suppose to be a game changer and paradigm shift in the Creation vs. Evolution debate. It will be out in June. First book, "Signature in The Cell," snapped players in this debate to attention.
mediator and the new covenant.
the society has taught that only the 144,000 are to par-take of the emblems and jesus only mediates and died for them.
"he is the mediator between his heavenly father, jehovah god, and the nation of spiritual israel, which is limited to only 144,000 members.
You are on the right track. All true disciples of Jesus are "spirit anointed." Read comments by QC here and comments by Bobcat here.
glaciologists from ohio state university have been studying the ice fields in peru.
tropical peru is home to ice formations 18,000 feet up in the quelccaya region, the largest of these tropical region ice sheets.. the glacier is melting so quickly that plant samples are having to be frozen artifically so that scientists 30 years from now can have something to study, lonnie thompson from the university said in the interview.
the ice field is the smallest it has been since the last ice age.. peruvians rely on the water from the glaciers, which will be reduced by 50% in their lifetime.
@designs
You're right, we probably don't have time to fix this "ice melting." IMO, we are past the tipping point.
The world community refused to act. We have nothing but TIME to watch it unfold.
Reality will let us know who saw and understood in advance, the proper calculation of what the melting means.
It’s not JWs.

We all have time... let's see what happens. Reality is great at settling things.

The ice is a big issue right now, video confirms it. All over the planet.
Now you know.

I agree, make sure you get a clear picture of the evidence.
