144000 The numbers don't add up

by LevelThePlayingField in

in 1935 there were 63,146 who attended the memorial and 52,465 partook.

(proclaimers book page 717).

according to the bible teach book on page 78, it says, “since the days of the apostles, god has been selecting faithful christians in order to complete the number 144,000”.

nstead of the numbers decreasing they are actually increasing to the point where we currently don`t have just 8000 Anointed we actually have over 18000 claiming to be Anointed with the heavenly hope.

where did you find that , the year book ? I firmly believe it's a literal martyrdom not the symbolic one they claim . Probably wont happen until the GT and mark of the beast stuff happens .Some of those probably legit , many called few chosen . If they died of natural causes in the first century they were believed to have sinned and not confessed , like the story of Ananias , the early apostles were pretty indestructible , the apostle paul ways beaten left for dead a couple times , survived a ship wreck and the bite of a deadly snake , thrown off a cliff ... still moved on to being fed to the lions

I believe it's literal myself . revelations shows that the four winds of destruction are held back until the last one is martyred by the axe . GOD chooses which ones actually qualify . I personally exclude women , they had gifts of the spirit just not the same tho . Men were commissioned to preach the gospel ,women , according to the apostle paul were only allowed to teach each other women and remain silent in the church , if they had questions about what was said in the church they needed to get with hubby , the WTBTS does seem to twist this around a bit .

"World conditions have never been as bad as they are now"

by Sour Grapes in

i went to a funeral yesterday and ran into a jdub.

of course, he approached me and it didn't take more than a minute into the conversation for him to get into the jdub gloom and doom mode.

he said that world conditions have never been as bad as they are now.. i looked straight into his eyes and said, "i think that world conditions were a lot worse during world war two.".

In the Daniel prophesy book they said that the kings of north and south was based on north and south of Israel of which they did or over did the significance of it through out Israels history , today it does seem like there is an awful lot of "pushing" going on over the oil in the mid east , it's even been said they have been using secret weapons of war on each other , weather wars , with the HAARP system . obviously the only reason for the US or perhaps the "kittim", is over there , to keep other nations from taking over the dollar petro scam as russian and china have dropped the dollar and advocated taking it over ... to me seems a possibility what it's about , I don't give up belief that there is a GOD or that the bible is insignificant

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.

looks like they waited until he was on his death bed to make a change , doesn't sound like spirit direction to me , must not be tribulation time as the second genner I studied with didn't sell all he owned , guy lives in a half million dollar home . You know the scripture about the little flock , sell it all and give it away... I can imagine even if they did ,they hide their ,"unrighteous riches," in a trust or something , these people have been so secretive and dishonest . I don't have issue with what they say about the government ,just research , bohemian grove , they actually worship a stone statue of an owl and they are extremely corrupt , pretty much what they say , satanic and corrupt , everyone knows that , I'm a 911 inside job guy , they did it to attack the bill of rights and start wars .

so I guess steve2 would not do anything if it were to happen? I keep hearing from the alternate web they are not really doing anything about human rights , instead they have human trafficking , child sex slave rings,drug cartels , most member countries are muslim , they have made noise on attacking Israel unilaterally , erdogan from turkey from what I read was advocating it , of course not everything is true on the web and i don't speak arabic . Really how long can a human rights organization ignore the RCC priests and their pedophilia ?

yah that is vague , which ones are respectable ? sounds like they are looking at UN organizations of which they insist is the scarlet beast under satanic direction . They like to flip flop on where the world governments stand , one minute satanic the next they are put there by Jesus (romans 13) . Revelations shows that the human authorities give their authority to the beast and satan during the end times according to their own beliefs in the grand climax book .

What I don't like is they don't ever ask forgiveness for the lies and never admit to it being a lie , they forced that 1914 generation on people , if you didn't say hallelujah when they brought it up they would just be rude to you and act stupid to you like you were an out cast , I would leave at times , I was a study and say it didn't add up really , I also don't believe women get the heavenly calling according to the bible , unless they rewrite it again to make it fit which they seem to do at times , john said they don't defile with women and are virgins , to me it means they gave up sex with women so that when they are spirits they don't do what the angels did and lust for women , virgins part I think they got right , keeping themselves chaste from satanic influence ....

They are expecting the great tribulation so any bad news would seem to fit , it seems like there will never be peace , corruption is rampant everywhere , The UN is under scrutiny , what would most of you do if they are right about the UN being the scarlet beast that destroys the RCC and affiliates ? Then it just goes off into destruction leaving the one world tyranny of the so called anti christ , thought that was always interesting myself . One of the first things trump did was commend the UN for an excellent job as we know that's a lie and now they refuse to recognize Jerusalem the new capital of Israel ...

I know they like to appeal to the european courts , I can't imagine them trying to get support from the other churches they condemn , same for political parties , jesus said I think , woah to you if the world speaks well of you , (something like that ) they are supposed to be thrilled of the sign persecution on them , the apostles thought so anyway , they didn't whine and cry about it .
