Something funny about Armageddon

by evilApostate in

years ago, when i was still a publisher, i had a very interesting conversation with a lady in the field service.

we were talking about punishment for sin and so on.

she believed in hellfire.

You sure could, as could we...and the dubs could still explain it that satisfies them because the believe in the concept that it is "the truth" and the GB are selected by Jehoover....any facts, logic, reasoning that show this up are just ignored...cognitive dissonance at full pelt...

They get round that by saying "Jehoover knows the hearts of those who would accept and may save them at the Big A"

Of course, thousands die and thousands are born each day...chances are...out of 7 billion people...are you likely to hear from a JW who number 8 million?

I was 19 before I ever met one...

Interesting. Years ago, I think I remember them saying that their advancement in the worldwide preaching work was proof that the end was near. They would always reference the scripture I mentioned.

Yes we are both right..the scripture they use to prove the end very close is the one that talks about the good news being preached in all the earth...the JW's are doing this...they see themselves in nearly every virtual land and country.

But of course they can't speak to everyone...including the tribes etc...thus the scripture I quoted is what they use and they explain it by saying in the time of the end the preaching will increase until it is being preached in all the earth and then at some point, God will call time when it has been preached to his satisfaction because they will never cover the earth before Jesus comes at the Big A.

Matthew 10:23: "When they persecute you in one city, flee to another; for truly I say to you, you will by no means complete the circuit of the cities of Israel until the Son of man arrives."

The JW's teach that they will never "finish" the preaching work by contacting everyone...they say only when Jehoover is satisfied then it will end...but still requires them to preach as hard and urgent so that the most amount of people get preached to.

Mill Hill - Chelmsford, reduced capacity, any news on Chelmsford plan revision

by Lostandfound in

chelmsford looks to have much less work than in mill hill complex, if gb spirit guided why did they allow massive plans for new site when such significant changes must have been in discussion, planning , or contemplation.

knee jerk reaction to things looks to indicate someone or more on gb has instituted changes almost overnight.

my dog plans his day better, get up, walk, sleep, eat, walk some more, eat some more, and sleep again.

Er no. they say they are not according to Feb study edition of the WT.

Election Post-Mortem

by Simon in

i'm sure many people, republicans included, are shocked at the results of the 2016 presidential election.

really, wtf!.

the polls were wrong and although it's tempting to blame voter suppression and fbi interference, that would just avoid looking at the real issues for the loss.

Do you realize the contradiction in your comment? You want Trump to be cozy to Putin while acknowledging his tyrannical behavior and danger to the world?

Where did I say I wanted Trump to be cosy to Putin? I just said he was...more than Hilary. There is less chance of the US and Russia warring with Trump...but the caveat with that for Europe is will Trump still play ball with NATO...Hilary would have...but those concerns are for us Europeans...as from a US standapoint many are saying Trump was the lesser of two evils...a fact which I agree with.

In times of hardship voters always lean towards the more extreme, nationalistic candidates or parties. When they fail to deliver the pendulum swings backs.

It has occurred through history. Just recently in my own country of Scotland the more extreme nationalistic party won nearly the entire counties seats at Westminster which is unheard of for a minority party but only because there are hardships and people want change.

All across Europe at present there are rises in these extreme nationalistic parties where, eventually, if hardships continue, will gain political power in each country.

It's the same in the US with Trump...he promised something different and less liberal...the voters went for it.

If I was a US citizen...I would have voted Trump too....even though he is an idiot I couldn't take more of the weak democrat politics...and the fact Hilary would have gone to war with Putin whilst Trump seems cosy to him.

All depends now on how Trump and NATO get on...NATO without US are goosed and Europe will be there for the taking by Putin....and he knows it.

Relatives of those who have lost their lives putting faith of life or death in a religion that is neither Inspired nor Infallible.

by smiddy in

with the admission of the governing body that they are neither inspired nor infallible , i am curious to know how many of you people from all around the world know of somebody ,a relative or friend , who lost their life because of following the dictates of a religion that now says they are neither inspired nor infallible.,that they now admit they make mistakes.. how many people have needlesly died having followed the jehovahs witness religions policys regarding not getting your child vaccinated against diseases ,which was the case years ago, not having organ transplants as that was considered cannilbalismm years ago ,and since the mid 1940`s the ban on jehovahs witnesses having blood transfusions.. yet somehow today you can have fractions of blood donated by non jw`s who are designated as people to be destroyed at armageddon because they follow satans system of things,.

blood that is donated by these people ,stored in a laboratory , and processed into fractions by laboratory staff and given to jehovahs witnesses with their consent.with no consequences to them for doing so.. blood is not poured out on the ground and not used for any purpose as their bible the nwt dictates.or any other bible for that matter..

Isn't it a case though of how many are willing to die even though the GB admit they can be wrong? I've spoken to my still-in wife about various possibilities with our children and she just buries her head in the sand.
