Sheep and the Goats - The Light Gets Brighter
by nmthinker inperhaps some of you remember a new understanding of the sheep and the goats in the epic march 2015 wt study edition - specifically the article "loyally supporting christ's brothers".. while this article was studied many months ago, it was instrumental in helping me wake up.
during my study of the 2015 article i recalled that we had just revised our understanding of the sheep and the goats a few years ago and this caused me to research the real progression of the jw understanding of this parable.
i put the results of my research in an excel spreadsheet.. .

If you give time, labor, green handshake toward the wt G,O,D., you could not possibly become a sheep at the right hand, because you know what you do when you are doing it, even the tax year. because the sheep ask : "when did we feed, visited-- -

What were Satan and his demons "doing" up in heaven, before being "cast down" in 1914?
by Dunedain ini was just thinking about how the wts has been spouting off for years that satan and his demons were cast down to the vicinity of the earth in 1914, but really, when you think about it, what was the difference before 1914 or after 1914?.
its not like satan and his demons did not have access to the earth.
satan and his demons always were messing with earth.

Every crackpot cult story engenders questions like that around their core scare theme -- like the Catholic's:
"What was God doing before creating the world?: "preparing a place for people that ask questions like that: --a very hot place."
wt demons before 1914? populating the minds of gullible wt readers. creating self-induced scares.

all of the current GB are part of the "overlapping generation"
anybody baptized in the 90s can be overlapping, so hunker down for a long wait past 2075 . even a "last" day has a thousand years.

"--Before creation of matter started, there was no time--", it should read "There was no movement through time." Even now, under the right condition that one way movement can come to a halt for you, while time keeps existing as a dimension just as before and into the future. According to wt, the angels applauded during the 13.8 billion years, that space, energy, matter accelerated (time^2). before that, blinking? -

It explains the strides in aviation, the space programs since 1914. If the Earth and it's vicinity is literal, the heavens must be too. so: Pleiades, here we come, restart " the accusing of our brothers day and night."
Everything Satan ever did was authorized by Jehovah, after all, he, and his dematerialized demons listened obediently not to kill Job, just his kids.
let's ask the astronomers: is there anything special about the sphere 100 light years around the Earth? it is demon free! and farther, past 6666** light years to infinity too, demon free! all these giant dinosaurs, mass extinction, demon free.
*** assuming that Satan harboured, internalized, dedicated his rebellion for 666 years before the snake talked.
It is amazing what you can cull from the cult.

All must be ready to obey...
by Half banana inin view of the recent financial pressures being spun as opportunities to hasten armageddon, i think we should look again at the meaning behind their cultic warning of "all must be ready to obey intructions, whether appearing sound or not".
by dripping these creepy injunctions into the watchtower study and therefore into the conditioned and receptive mind of the jw, how long will it be before they are able to decree something like this?......

Are there any ex-missionaries here??
by fulano ini have been a missionary in the dominican republic for almost 10 years and i was wondering if there were any ex-missionaries on this forum.. i am back in my country now for 3 years and totally inactive.. what i noticed in those missionary-years was the lack of spiritual interest among the missionaries.. discussions were about rooms, cars and greater responsibilities, the bad territory.
and the local c.o.s and d.os.. was this only in the dr or are there other experiences??.
ere other experiences?

very interesting read. If you were assigned far away, with no wealth behind you, and then locally assigned into oblivion, you had the true wt wt experience. The likes of E.B. White would shine nevertheless. -

There should have been an owl or something nearby to give Eve a warning.
like: "You won't die when you touch, even if you eat live to ~900+, but most of your daughters will never live to 100, if you eat. I repeat: " You will not die the day-- eat of that other tree instead it is not forbidden"
