really watchtower?
jephthah's daughter as an example of what a girl wants to be when she grows up??.
a burnt offering?!!.
With regard to the Hateful 8 ,GB members ,how many of them are married and how many have been married more than once ?
Do they have a moral right to impress singleness on anybody if they themselves are married ?
Are they the GB members or at least some of them hypocrites ?
we enter the dark world of the jehovah's witnesses: abuses, subjected women and suicides.
accusations of pedophilia, rejection of homosexuals, "social death", theft of personal data, suicides ... .
spanish interviews 15 former members of this "sect" in spain who denounce all kinds of situations.
Christendom`s priest`s / Clergy spend years studying on many levels to become ordained in there church .
And they can still stuff up
Jehovah`s Witness Elders have virtually no such training compared to what Christendom has except to have spent many hours consistently in the field service preaching WT propaganda.
And many if not most not even having a good knowledge of the history of JW`s,
And JW`s Elders are certainly not trained as counselors to the many complexities of human behaviour
jehovah reminds me of married couples who are having problems who decide to .
have children to improve their lot.. obviuosly jehovah can prevent pregnancy.. 1 samuel 1:5,6 .
but to hannah he gave a double portion because he loved her, .
Well God had to prove he was right. After all, the angels were watching!
Or was it in fact other GOD`S that were watching, Gen.3:22a
another question for jehovah's witnesses.
if the second elohim (אֱלהִים) of psalm 82:1 refers to humans, then what happens when we substitute "humans" as a translation in other verses where elohim (or elim, the other plural for "gods") occurs in the plural?
psalm 8:4-5 what is man, that you (god) art mindful of him?
Before mankind ever invented for himself Kings ,Judges or Gods or the like to rule over him ,Yahweh/Jehovah in Genesis 3:22 says this "Here the man has become like one of us"....
Who was he talking to ? his peers ? other Gods ? Himself ?

the bible clearly says a generation is 40 years (exodus and job) the 1st half of the last century saw wars, famines, pestilence.
if 1914 was the correct starting date the end should have came by the mid 1950's ( which the witnesses believed at the time) this fact alone proves beyond a shadow of a doubt.
jesus was only speaking of the events of the 1st century..
Good points Guys ? And when Jesus made that prophecy about Jerusalem being destroyed it occurred within that 40 year period namely about 38 years .
That a scriptural generation is less than 50 years can also be affirmed from 3 scriptural references such as :
Mathew.1: 17
Luke 3:23-38
Mathew 24:34
All of which attest to a Biblical generation being no longer than 50 years or thereabouts.and certainly not an overlapping generation .
And definitely no suggestion anywhere in scripture of a secondary fulfillment to Jesus prophecy.
i saw john cedars show last night about when he visited the headquarters and this was mentioned.. this is the first i heard of this.
