predicted the watctower falsely predicted before 1914 that,"millions now living will never die" before 1914. its now a year before we hit 100 years mark.
was god's or god's holy spirit guiding them when they falsely predicted that prophesy?
what is your reaction or perspective on this big lie?.
I think the confusion is that there are two separate prophecies being mixed together here: the prophecy that the generation that was born before 1914 would not die until Armageddon occurs and the other prophecy of 1919 which stated that millions then living in 1919 would never die. In any case, 2014 is an obviously important date because it is 100 years after 1914 and none of the things the WT said about it have even come true and all of the people who were alive in 1914, except for possibly a few Peruvians, are dead, Jim, dead.
And, if we did the research we'd probably find that there are not 2 millions at least people alive today that were alive in 1919 when the words were first spoken.

Well, I think that it may have been just after 1914 when it was first said and applied the way it has been. 1918 or 1919 possibly. But hopefully some of the scholars here will have a link right ready.
yeah i know its taken me almost 5 years to reach 1000 post and many of you get that in a few months.. but i do take long extended breaks from the forums (especially in summer months for sun an fun).. i've seen where others had made a thread on celebrating this particular point of being a member on here and thoguht well that sounds fun so i will too.. plus considering how close we are to the "end of this present wicked system of things", and that it was going to happen any day now, and right around the corner, i figured i'd not make it long enough to hit 1000 post.
lol.
anyways hope this post finds all of you out there in good health, with plenty of wealth and enjoying your life to its fullest.
I tried a chocolate wine recently that I thought would be horrible, but I was wrong. It was wonderful. I found that even when I drank a lot of it I would not get sick or sick of it. Can't remember the brand but the whole bottle was worth the price, which was less than 20 bucks, so even that part of it wasn't bad. So both.

i don't really know where to start, but i guess you've all been here before so you'll know where i'm coming from.
Welcome captain. It sounds to me like your brain is definitely working, so I don't see any reason why you should call yourself stupid or whatever. All the greatest intellectuals in history have one thing in common, they have the intellect, the balls, the guts and the humility to simply say, "I DON'T KNOW." It's the moronic apologists that go around wagging their cocks in everyone's faces like they know everything that are the real asses and dumb and ignorant and stupid and arrogant. So, great that you are modest and smart enough to know that you don't know and man enough to admit it. Kudos, you are on your way to your destiny.
miss you all!
thank you for your encouragement/advice.
love to all!.
Happy B Day Buddy!
even as an elder, i had doubts as to this being "the one true religion".
i personally had chosen 2014 as one of those "make or break" dates.
fortunately, i left years ago.
There will always be a new date to move everything up to. We haven't even begun to see the time of the end moved up. They could suddenly say that 607 was bogus and therefore change 1914 to 1934 just like that. That gives them 20 extra years to fool around with.
Let's see. Then they could say that 1975 really was something after all and the beginning of the last days started then. Finding scriptural support is always possible, in fact that is the easy part. Then they could say 1914 was 100 years off and 2014 is the new date. There is 100 years right there. People would buy it no problem.
We could just go on and on and on. The possibilities are endless. The new dates and putting it further down the road are endless.
so i started working at my new job in december.
there is one person in my department who is a jw.
then there is another jw who works in my building, who just started going to my old hall about 6 months ago.
Yeah he needs to be set straight. Just tell your boss he is hrassing you about your religious beliefs.
i'm falling apart here.
the false teachings of the jw enrage me; we started covering the information for the jeremiah book, and i was outraged at how they twist up the scriptures to meet what they want to say.
my dad wants to consider the "god's love" book during family worship evening.
Sounds like all good advice, especially about continuing with your education. Except for this little bit "Don't take it all so seriously" I wouldn't presume to tell you how seriously to take your own life or how upset and worried you should be. The reality is that you have much to worry about. The worst case acenario in all of this is really, really shitty. Many on this forum have experienced the worst case scenario, and I think as a community this is one of things that we should be helping one another acheive: AVOIDING the worst case scenario. Homelessness is nothing to joke about. I'm homeless now and sleeping in a church restroom. I lost my apartment as expected about a month ago. I was swirling out of control finacially, I reached out, and there is just no one and no thing to help me, especially in the case of PREVENTING homelessness. There are shelters, which are just worst than sleeping in the gutter and contain the most foul beasts of humans imaginable, once you get homeless, but there is virtually no such program in America that helps you BEFORE you are out on the street. believe me, I have looked. There is plenty of money being spenty on bicycle lanes and such here in Long Beach, but the idea of helping someone prevent themselves from being homeless is as alien as suggesting there be a city paid oprogram for alien abductions and offering the aliens a time share.. whatever. So, keep reaching out on this forum, and anywhere else you can look. I don't think you are LYING on your FAFSA, and you should get that out of your head I think. Maybe even tell your FAFSA worker the whole story. State you are under the threat of being put out any minute, or just refuse to give any information on your parents under the defense that giving such information would compromise your position as having a roof over your head... and it will! Take care, and I don't say that lightly. PM me if you like, I have been through the whole student loan / grant process. I graduated from college in 07, and I was homeless once during college as well. I do know the system pretty well too. i can direct you in certain ways but just PM me and I'll give you the info.

Has anybody caught on to the idea of turning the Watchtower on this GOON? Wouldn't that be funny if this guy was tracked down by the WT and disfellowshipped?
