  I personally believe this type of stuff is just a distraction , take away from the real news like the chaos in Palestine , horrible situation whether you like the move of the Israeli capital or not , I know I wasn't going to get up at 4am to watch a bunch of arrogant royals party while people are in abject poverty

  i remember when that came out, my mother didn't catch it in the original article in the wt.

  it was in one of the review "do you remember" thingies that she caught it.

  she asked me if it means what she thought it meant.

  Don"t know how anyone can just accept it as if they weren't duped into teaching false dogma disguised as the truth , they don't like me because I won't play the game of obedient domestic with them . They don't claim infallibility but claim some sort of no accountability for lies . I know they pushed 1914 for a very long time , it was , "look how old the are getting, gotta be close """ blah blah , the number of partakers increase at memorial , ohh they are not familiar with our beliefs or mentally ill , they have deeeemennnzzzz .... filthy apostates ...

  sir82 - I guess if his father was born in 1900 and didn't have kids until he was 65 it works for them , did not know how old they are but figured since most people have kids in their 20 to 30 range it would mean they'd be pretty old , or is this a symbolic second gen? Didn't see all the dogma involved. As far as I can see you have parents , gen one , kids , gen 2 and so on

  I might actually agree with some of that , the whole end times was based on Josephs day for a year which the fall of Judah is the center of debate on that one , I could also go with the 110 year generation attributed to Joseph but don't think I buy the over lapping duel generation . They made 1914 fit with other prophesy , the 3.5 days prophesying then the shut down of the WTBTS to be later resurrected all that stuff no one else seems to get with any sort of understanding , I did read the grand climax book . Like I said I did know a second genner but he never claims any sort of special insight , just toes the WTBTS line , I would expect them to have some sort of paranormal experiences but they only claim it's a feeling of knowing if you are a boy or a girl . The bible makes it sound way more about experiencing unbelievable sightings and experiences . sorry it was jacob and the day for a year , never heard them say joseph before on this dogma

  the end better come fast as that second generation is pretty old ,in their eighties , if they expect to be leading the church during the tribulation wearing depends and using walkers , don't see it myself . They also said there would be a last calling before tribulation , I think . I knew one that had diabetes even ... no insulin and poof he's off to meet jesus I guess

  it's how they control . continue to believe the GB are merely imperfect men not responsible for lies . You are not anointed unless they confirm it , almost the catholic way of confirming bishops or the pope . The bible clearly says different , you can only approve of yourself after scrutiny as to whether you qualify , apostle paul wrote about who and why you should partake at the memorial . I was watching the web cast last summer , don't know if anyone else caught the huge blaspemy that the GB member retracted live , can't believe he did it myself , then he said the "new light ", about GOG of magog . can't remember exactly what he said but it was about jesus I think

  Who are the 144,000?

  by Canadian Sunshine in

  2. beliefs

  if i am understanding correctly only 144,000 will go to heaven, to be with jesus and help rule?

  these 144,000 are witnesses only.

  there is over a million jw world wide, what happens to the rest of the faithful followers.

  I guess you want opinions on this one and not only WT beliefs , the way I see it , 144k is literal number that get resurrected as spirits to live in the heavenly part of the kingdom and co rule the earth with christ for a thousand years and would ,I think include first century christians that were murdered by the state , believe it to be a martyr pact , once in you are expected to preach until the state imprisons and executes you , natural causes excluded or accidental . many called few chosen . The great crowd are the survivors that never know death and live on earth in human form for eternity perhaps over seeing some of the resurrection prospects .

  by the time i finish this post, i will have turned 50 years old.

  i spent over 40 years of my life not celebrating my birthday, and it never seemed like a big deal to me.

  three years ago, i received a cake and some friends sang "happy birthday" to me at a dinner party that was for a different event.

  don't make a big deal of it , some family do send presents which is nice but most don't bother as i don't bother with theirs , it's like the christmas nonsense that I learned to live without , people always feel cheated somehow unless you put some sort of rule in place as to how much you are going to spend , geez supposed to be about the giving ... no thanks
