  To garyneal and Others, Evidence that the anointed remnants represented by the GB were selected in 1919.

  by mankkeli in

  2. experiences

  1st evidence: the release of loyal jews from exile, made possible by the fall of babylon, foreshadowed the release in 1919 of anointed christians from spiritual exile.

  2nd evidence: that year marked the beginning of the period when the anointed remnants were released from a form of spiritual captivity to the ideas and practices of false religion.

  although having rejected such false teachings as the trinity and the immortal soul, they were still tainted by babylonish practices.

  Armaggeddon may occur invisibly

  by mankkeli in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  at the end of today's meeting, some over-righteous friends were discussing the various possibilities of armaggeddon occuring invisibly, considering the explanation given within the "parousia" domain on the invisible presence of christ in 1914. they reffered to some articles which i am presently looking through.. .

  while he was sitting upon the mount of olives, the disciples approached him privately, saying: tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your presence [pa?rou?sia, greek] and of the conclusion of the system of things?.

  "in our day, then, what is meant by the biblical expression the presence of our lord jesus christ?

  Interracial Marriage

  here is a question i want to pose because i do not know the correct answer.

  i have seen many interracial married couples among jehovah's witnesses--moreso than i have seen in other religions.

  however, i have been told that once upon a time, interracial marriage was frowned upon by the wts hierarchy.

  by Abandoned in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  ok, i've heard it all: sincerity, honesty, security, money, love, romance, flowers, poems, promises, and more.

  but, in my arguably limited experience, i've been shot down while doing all of these (at differnt times obviously).

  so, what do women really want?

  Is David Blaine Possessed?

  1. jw
  2. friends

  that is a question i used to ask myself in my dub days.

  prior to that, i'd always enjoyed magic and stunts, simply for entertainment, and always felt it was just a bunch of bologna.

  then, when i studied the bible, there were the answers, so i thought!

  How do you feel, relieved or sad?

  by jula71 in

  2. experiences

  ive been doing a bunch of reflecting and pondering> im just seeing if anyone else has been feeling this and/or if its common.

  relieved that i have a new found freedom, free to pursue goals and dreams i never could as a dub.

  free from the guilt, always feeling god is watching waiting from me to screw up so he can erase my name from the book of life.
