not so long ago on a russian-speaking resource http://antifranz.narod.ru/ was published a volume article in style "contra apion" named "franzizm".
i was extremely interested by that fact that the author of article has mentioned about some mystical letters from gb in branches in connection with an expelling of ray frenz.
ostensibly in these letters said that raymond franz has been expelled for financial affairs.

now that you no longer have the wt's view, what do you believe it actually refers to?.
Whatever it happens to be, I’m not afraid, not while we got people like "Bruce Willis"

my wife wanted to go visit some friends at another kingdom hall so i tagged along.
to keep her happy.
the elder giving the "public" talk brought up the 1975 myth.. he said, as he looked around the audience, "it looks like there are not a lot of brothers.
I gave away my own business, an engineering and plastic coating company in 1974 because of what I foolishly thought was the "TRUTH"
Like many others here I found the elders were dabhands at telling lies and whats more getting away with them, whatever the serious nature may be.
I remember seeing a letter re; 1974 written by Fred Franze, it left you in no doubt that 75 was the end, my study elder came running in to me in 74 saying we have only months to go. ( something he denied after it didn’t happen)
Unlike you I publicly accused the elders in a watchtower program of being FAT elders (this was when we were referring to the shepherds in Ez. 7 )
In my 30years of being brainwashed I did not trust ONE elder, I found them to be the biggest hypocrites going.

5 you shall not bow down to them or worship them; for i the lord your god am a jealous god, punishing children for the iniquity of parents, to the third and the fourth generation of those who reject me!.
wtf !
so if your grandparents screw up god will punish future generations.
Manasseh according to 2Kings 21-6 was bad in the eyes of Jehovah.
He had a son Amon who also was just as bad, 2Kings 21-20
Then comes Josiah who was accepted by God 2kings 22-2
So Josiah had a bad FATHER AND GRANDFATHER but was good.
I don’t read of him being punished for his parentage.

I havn’t done research on the subject but if we went back four generations from, lets say Abraham, Solomon.etc. ones that god approved of.
Have all the preceding generations before these ones behaved themselves ?

I heard that many were praying on the way down !!!
I wonder how many were thinking or praying to "Charles Darwin"

problem with the account of cain.. .
does anyone know the age of cain when he killed abel.
i have heard the figure of 35/40 years mentioned.. the reason i ask this is, when he killed abel he fled to the land of fugitiveness who were the people living there?
Hi all,
I know it was a basic question but it seems that we still don’t know the answer.
Thanks KT
by our actions we have missed paradise!!!.
my wifes parents (catholic beliefs) have lived all their lives in manchester (150 miles away from us).. six months ago my wifes father died (age91).
many trips were made to look after matters and of course to take care of her mum.. eventually, because of her age (92) and dementia coming on, we have brought her down to live with us.

Permanently. There’s no doubt about it, she would have died had she been left on her own.
Now according to the WT she would have had a resurrection because she would have died BEFORE Armageddon. (;as my wife’s father will) But because we are looking after her every need, thus keeping her alive, (as the scriptures say looking after widows), if Armageddon arrives NOW, she will miss out on the resurrection, even though other scriptures have been adhered to.
We know (according to WT) we have missed out on our resurrection, (this was for asking question about the UN. Blood. Paedophiles etc.) BUT WHY SHOULD MUM MISS OUT?
Have we done wrong! Should we have let her stay up at Manchester to die and thus have a resurrection.
IF A SUBJECT CANNOT STAND UP TO COMMON SENCE THEN IT IS NOT THE TRUTH.
