  Do old time present day active JW`s genuinely believe in overlapping generations ?

  by smiddy3 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for the life of me i can not come to terms with old timers in the "truth" who could swallow this interpretation of scripture about an overlapping generation .. when jesus spoke about "this generation" .

  are their any real bible students among younger ones any more ?.

  here are 3 bible scriptures that confirm a generation is approximately 40- 50 years long give or take a few years .. 1. matt:1 :17 abraham born 2016-18 bc jesus born 2 bc approx.

  This convoluted, indigestible mess has all the fingerprints of the insufferable David Splane all over it. It seems he's arrogated to himself the moth-bitten mantle of Fred Franz as WT oracle..

  Please help.... depressed jw teen

  i think i’m going insane.... i’m 17 years old and being raised in a jw household.

  i really want friends and a boyfriend but i can’t have that because my parents are jw and i’m also homeschooled.

  they are those jw parents that refuse to let me go to public school because of bad influences.

  Welcone to the forum. I'm deeply sympathetic to your plight. Unfortunately your home schooling has impeded you from developing friendships outside the constricted realm of the JWs. You need to bide your time until you are legally independent of your parents and use the intervening time to explore the options available to you. Don't despair, there are many here who are willing to help.

  I reworked my Study on "The Temptations of Jesus"

  by Doug Mason in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the scope of my writings now extends beyond the myopic borders of the wts's focus.

  at the same time, however, i know that most here have a broader interest, so i am making my latest study available.. i have rewritten my study on matthew 4:1-11, which is often called: "the wilderness temptations of jesus".

  the study led me to similar conclusions, and along the way i located further resources and i restructured the document.. https://jwstudies.com/matthew_s_messages_through_jesus__inaugural_tests.pdf .

  It will be interesting to see whether they circle the wagons, trim him back, or purge him... My guess is that they will opt for the first.

  The drinking culture is entrenched in Bethel. When I was there in the mid sixties, there were at least five cases of alcoholism serious enough to warrant rehabilitation. Two of them were women, wives of Bethel "heavies."

  I dont understand why KH's are less attractive than churches

  i mean, come on.

  if they call themselves the "true", then why are most kingdom halls not as attractive as churches and dont do any better?.

  If not ornate, there was a time in the 50s and 60s that many of the Kingdom Halls built by the then-relatively autonomous congregations with their own funds were quite attractive and showed some individuality.. that's all been wrung out of the organization.

  Let's Talk Horror Movies

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  horror is easily my favourite genre of movie so i just thought i'd start a thread on it.. horror can be done badly and there are plenty of crap horror movies, no doubt about that.

  but horror can also be done very well, too - often on a low budget.. plus, there are quite a lot of subgenres - slasher, supernatural, monster movies, body horror, psychological horror, zombie, vampire, etc.. so, do you like horror?.

  what's your favourite subgenre?.
