  Looking for Watchtower Quotations

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this thread could be used regularly for people looking for specific quotations from watchtower literature.. right now i'm looking for a quotation which says it is the duty of clergy to point out errors in wt messages.. there is also one which says that religions which claim to offer salvation to millions should allow scrutiny..

  There have definitely been quotes lately that have said ‘about 1914’ instead of just saying 1914 as they always used to.

  My grandmother called my mother

  by Anony Mous in

  so, i’m just posting this as a warning to lurking jws.

  if you’re still on the fence, here is a story.. my grandmother, now in her 80s hasn’t talked to anyone in the family for over 20 years ever since my mother was the last one of her children that left ‘the truth’, she had sent my mother a card to never talk to her again.

  so here we are 21 years later, she gets a call out of the blue that she needed help, she hadn’t been able to get into her kitchen.

  Yes they even encourage not paying into a private pension at all. Try to opt out of it and work less hours so you don’t have to pay into it at all has been the advice for decades because you will never be old enough to need it.

  now all those ones who followed that direction are a burden on others

  its criminal the direction from the ‘faith slave’

  Governing Body's failed doctrines blamed on Jehovah's gradual revealment

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nh9w8zmgli0.

  ( starts at the 21:00 minute mark ) governing body member jeffrey winder reveals the real reason for the failed doctrines throughout the watchtower's 150 year history.

  he claims that the governing body are neither inspired or infallible.. the governing body do not need to apologize for getting doctrines wrong.. the governing body ''do their best with what they have and what they understand at the time.''.

  Yes the new light that this guy Br Winder is talking about is a real problem. Why would Jehovah have revealed false light in the first place?

  There is a good chance that this new light 2023 they claim is from Jehovah will be updated with even more new light. That means Jehovah releases false light according to them?

  why doesn’t rank and file see this?

  Thoughts on annual meeting “new light”

  by FFGhost in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so, i finally saw the annual meeting video part 2.. this is the one with the “new light” on who might survive armageddon, vs. those who do not.. in summary, for those of you fortunate enough not to have to sit through it, it’s something like this:.

  old light: once the “great tribulation” starts, that’s it for non-jws.

  the “door of the ark” is closed.

  Yes that argument about Abraham being too stupid to not enough new light would apply to the GB both last and present.

  So about 150years of Governing body being too stupid to have this new light. This is what they are actually saying at the 2023 AGM.

  Its not only insulting to Abraham but it’s very insulting to the old GB members who have died in recent decades.

  Their explanation why so much old light was wrong was because Jehovah thought the brother were too stupid to have the correct light first time?

  A reasonable question would be was all the old light that has now been updated from Jehovah?

  If there are current understandings that will be updated in the future then why did Jehovah update his people the wrong understandings?

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  https://youtu.be/pi7sn2rnrke?si=lnvklqct6nuayv2q.

  branches of jehovah’s witnesses: 85 (= down one from 86 from the previous year and quite possibly they are referring to the hong kong bethel that closed down recently).

  number of lands reporting: 239 ( =the same as 2022).

  The Borg is definitely past peak in every metric. Bethel’s, Bethelites, literature published all way way down, if you saw it on a chart it would be crazy looking

  next it will be pioneers, publishers, congregations, KHs. All these numbers in decline

  I love this series, it’s totally talking about JWs.

  The young guy did fellowships did so interesting and then he falls in love with the young innocent JW girl.

  The other girl in the congregation who has had sexual relations with most of the guys is actually very common these days and the elders have no idea

  How far do we get away from 1914

  by PimoElder in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  how far do we get away from 1914 before they have a new light and admit it was all wrong?.

  they cling to the old theory of the 77 week prophecy from the wrong date that jerusalem was destroyed .

  with the overlapping generations nonsense still we are getting too far away from 1914. what will they say if we get to the 2030s and they still cling to 1914?.

  Yep 40 year generation that would have been 1954. Even overlapping generations 1994. Three times overlapping 2034, so maybe ten years left😂
