Mr V- goofy takes on God's prophecies is a mistake made by all.
Medical information is something one accepts or rejects.
C- I agree with you on- the WTBS goes FAR beyond "removing the wicked from among you"
D- Is ridiculous
it just that the gb has a problem mixing biblical fact with goofy opinions.. but at least is isn't like the churces!.

have you gone back to that- or lost you faith because of 'brothers'?.
Typical pattern.

I though so...

Well MB, you typify the role of an atheist.
we all know the scripture where jesus says 'this generation will by no means pass away before the end will come'.
the jw interpret this as the destruction of the jewish state in jerusalem by the romans and the dispersal of the jewish people.
however, while researching the history of judea, i come across various facts about the region.. so jesus died about 30ce and his disciples were likewise well in their thirties or older, the 'generation' by definition would've lasted until ~50ce (the time during which children are born and raised to have children of their own).
That is partially what happened, as Jesus foretell, but as MUCH greater time period was in his message..

Dead? With an IMMORTAL soul? With Jesus being on of Three Gods?
Resurrected? Without be dead if the FISDT place?
i hope this is in the right area.
i've been studying the 2520 days/years 607/587/586 debacle.
for a while now i have felt 1914 was wrong.
I have seen some goofy GB spin of the prophecies, but it looks like that is legit.
The "one day for a year" fits; especially when it fits in to the Messiahs appearance.
The Last Days most appear to recognize- and it all started in 1914.
The "over-lapping" nonsense is just that.
The generation spoken of is during the Great Tribulation.

I don't understand- are you saying it a 'Person' part of the 'Trinity"?

No. The spirit doesn't make ROBOTS of them, we all have personal thoughts and opinion!
I have little respect for the GB, since they have CONTINUED was they goofy opinions ('Overlapping-generations'), have dumbed down the meetings, and even the newest version of the NWT!
But, like it or not, they are just brothers!
