any body know?
the 7000 year figure is not correct no matter how derived, If you want to chop the "preparation" of the planet for us into 6 periods, you get 750 000 000 years per "day", and our current rest day should be that long too. which would leave another 5 days like that to the end of the endless planet
The nearly endless overlapping
greetings.
does anyone have the answers for this weeks last written review?.
thank you.
anyone that is/was a dedicated jehovah's witness knows that the worship of the ''faithful and discreet slave'' is the only relationship we know.i don't remember having a personal relationship with jehovah without the governing body being in the way.they make all the rules on every matter.anyone who thinks that jehovah has any control on your daily matters is a fool.jehovah's witnesses only answer to an organization!.
"we do not dedicate ourselves to a religion, nor to a man, nor to an organization.
no, we dedicate ourselves to the supreme sovereign of the universe, our creator, jehovah god himself.
jehovah's witness strangled girls and was getting away with it for over 20 years.
.
ok i don't mean to put all of them into just one box so to speak, their are some that are smart successful etc.
but my god most of them are just wasted space, ignorant, no drive, horrible jobs, make nothing for income and the only thing in life they have going for them is this title.
no wonder so many will not wake up and hold on to this stupid cult, it's all they have.

Blondie; According to the January 1st, 1987 Watchtower on page 30, Jehovah's Witnesses maintain that each Creative Day was 7,000 years long, totalling 49,000 years. thank you, trust researcher.
The flaw with the wt calculation is, that on the cosmic scale the seventh day has barely started, not finished, so you have to divide or multiply by 6, not seven imho. It was not that long ago that evolution stopped and the snakes shut up for good.

BB: How gracious of wt to allow scientists to do such research and the the straw man: longer than 24 hours. wt never taught that, they taught 7000 years, whereas it is theoretically ~120 000 times longer than their old teaching.
4.8 billion : 6 days. = .8 .--The 7th day will be 800 million years long. start overlapping now.
so why has the growth flatlined?
why is less time spent in the ministry?
why have aux pios droped by 1/3rd?.

somehow the idea of 6 creative days of 6000=42 000 + 7000 of a rest, Sabbath day appealed to the numerology minded wt writers, it fitted with the OT Jubilee cycle of - 49 +1 year. Subdividing the the last 7 millennia further into an 6 work +1 day of rest and judgement by "jesus". This fitted the overall pattern, and the 1 day= 1000 year rule. It allowed too to re-inforce the idea that after the end of the 1000 year kingdom would follow another millenium "day" to complete the type of the 50 year jubilee cycle. since seven is a spiritually perfect number, it makes perfect sense. of course Satan the talking snake has to raise it's ugly head in the 50th day again, so, no peace for the wicked. time out.
P.S. wt: the creative process of the earth, including the "new creation" is EONS long.
if this has been discussed i missed it.
i think the january study watchtower is a concerted attempt to reduce the numbers claiming to be anointed.
but i love the sneaky way they go about it this time.
