  The necessity of "Spiritualizing" prophecy fullfillment

  by refiners fire in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the watchtower organization has certainly, in times past, taken an absolute position on the matter of interpreting prophetic scripture passages.

  but they are not the only ones guilty of that crime.

  it is easy to demonstrate the same pattern from adventism, and ( as i have done previously) from many other churches of the ?born again?

  Famine in Dubdom

  reading thru this rutherford book, religion, it occurred to me how often the judge talks about the sins of other organizations but the crimes he self righteously accuses those other organizations of are actually the crimes his own organization is most guilty of.

  it must be some kind of subconscious transferral thing common to all totalitarians.

  just consider the message conveyed by substituting the term the organization in place of the word christendom in these quotes.

  The "Heavenly life of Free Love"

  by refiners fire in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i just got handed a book published by a group called the children of god aka the family.

  theyre a bit of a worry i reckon.

  there was a big kafuffle with the movement here in oz sometime in the 80s when the government moved on their compounds and removed all the children.

  brethren.

  one of the apostates here in melbourne has grown weary of his dub/cult literature and has given me his full set of russell wts, 1879 thru 1916 reprints in very fine condition.

  also his complete collection of rutherford books such as government, harp, enemies etc.

  The Mandate of Heaven

  by refiners fire in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  all of the cults claim some kind of divine mandate.

  at the least to be in contact with a higher power or to have a guaranteed method to create success and plenty.

  it is the key by which they enslave the minds of their followers.

  What was Fullfilled in 1975?

  by refiners fire in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as we all know, the lord jehovah causes expectation to arise regarding certain dates.

  these expectations have usually resulted in the members of the organization, erroneously, expecting the apocalypse to arrive on those dates.

  1914 was such a year.
