I always thought the weirdest JW weddings were the ones thrown by the rich Elder, for his daughter. They always had a creepy vibe. I really don't know why. Maybe because of the wedding talk?!

Russell's chronology was right after all!

by Vanderhoven7 in

the kingdom of god is already begun, which is pointed out in prophecy as due to begin the exercise of power in a.d. 1878, and that the "battle of the great day of god almighty" which will end in 1914 with the complete overthrow of the earth's present rulership, is already commenced.. i just did the math....and russell was right.

christ returned invisibly in 1874 and took rulership (restored kingdom reign) in 1878.. 2520 years minus 607 when jerusalem was destroyed = 1913 (accounting for no year zero) = 1914. that`s 2520 - 607 = 2014. but wait, that`s 2520 prophetic years of 360 days, not solar days of 365.25 days.

to convert to solar days then one must multuiply 2520 x 365.25 which gives us 2,484 actual years.

Is Vanderhoven being sarcastic?

Oh my goodness.

This is JW 2.0 all the way.

Looks just like a Mormon video.

Glad I left in time

Hello all,

If any other Christians can answer this:

Is preaching a main goal?

Other duties?

i have posted a review of the kingdom hall that i attended before i revoked my jw membership, on both yelp & google.

i figured that it only takes me 5 minutes to write a good review, and it could save someone a lot of heartache.

keep in mind that you have to post a firsthand account of your experience.

Hello everyone,

I have posted a review of the Kingdom Hall that I attended before I revoked my JW membership, on both Yelp & Google. I figured that it only takes me 5 minutes to write a good review, and it could save someone a lot of heartache.

Keep in mind that you have to post a firsthand account of your experience. My first review got taken down because it was a more generic "this is a cult" review, and someone flagged it (hmmm..I wonder who).
