The Other Sheep are the 10 Tribes of Israel. WT answer.

by prologos in

if you still chafing under wt's false teachings, wanted to prove wt wrong , still sit through wt "studies", here is a gem from the current studies to sept 25, july 2016 wt mag.

to read while the study drones on: "questions from readers " the 2 sticks.

the summary: the two sticks: judah's 2 and ephraim's 10 tribes were reunited at the return from exile.

prologos

Alanv: "What happened to their new rule of not using types and anti types unless the bible specifically does?

The article does not have the words "type" and "antitype" directly printed, but on page 32, the last in that the issue, it say of the 1919 anointed: "--they were like the stick of Judah,--" and of the OS: "-- they were like the stick for Joseph--" clearly using them as symbolic types. My point is, that member of all tribes were Israelites, not just the Levites living among them all over the land , or just Judah and Benjamin settled around Jerusalem .Wt can not admit that most of it's adherents are real dignified humans, "israelites" not comparable to dumb animals. They never speak of anointed sheep and Other sheep. In the article their own words prove them wrong. Denying the Other Sheep full citizenship proves that their previous symbolic typing of ancient stories was misapplication of the precedents.

Cold Steel, I was specifically pointing to the wt attempt to denigrade the normal christians, as mere dumb animals, as the jonadabs, gibeonites, subclasses of christians.

The antitype (David Splane's enjoinder notwithstanding), has the Other Sheep pictured by the 10 tribes of Israel, slowly join the ruling class after 1919. So wt what is it? are Other Sheep as you say here and now not really [spiritual] Israelites? members making up the 10 tribes? Was not the 13st tribe Levi spread among them, but working in Jerusalem? all Israelites, all heavies, not lites, not goyim?

shame on wt, trying to create a multi-tier christianity, and contradicting it in their teachings. or?

New commentary on revelation coming up?

by EdenOne in

i heard through the grapevine about a forthcoming book:.

together through the great tribulation - come to jehovah's mountain.

still awaiting solid confirmation though.

prologos

The GB members must know that they are lost, lost in time, having to keep on the watch, they are probably scanning world events to find a pattern they can match to the ramblings in revelation. but like each of the heavenly star constellations, the bible, their guide, is not a real pattern, just pictures unrelated to important situations,-- so bring it on, it should be turning out worse than their last effort.

Oneeyedjoe: "--Splane is probably just going along with whatever to try to keep the gravy train going so he can die in his new compound, so he wouldn't care;

how would you know? David might be the one that is itching to get the pet ideas he is hatching, of the mystic kind, into print and bringing the Rev 1:10: "day of the Lord" aka F&DS of 1919 in line with 21st century happenings. It might be a diversion from the musical ambitions of his. Trying to find a way to make the template of the Apocalipse fit the modern events. if it happens, it is because the latter day Freddy Franzes won out over the Nathan Knorrs.

JW women true value

by Chook in

when they sent out internal letter to elders regarding the binding of elders book , worldly men could do the job but only under supervision of a elder.

but under no circumstance could a sister touch the book.

the idiots put it in print, any elders wives on this forum should take it up with their man.

prologos

smiddy, --- given the odious record that the wt leadership, from the false prophets at the pinnacle to the un-christian cruelty of the local "glorious" enforcers, jw woman should consider it a tremendious triumph not to be part of it. and shame on those that tried,-- by vocal or underhanded means.

At least the Australian government printed the credits. The kingdom government [earthly] never does anymore.

Origin of Life

by cofty in

in recent years significant progress has been made in solving the question of how life originated on our planet.. how do you think theists will respond when it finally happens?

as a former christian i know my reaction would have been something like "well that just goes to show that it takes intelligent life to make life", but for two reasons that defense doesn't work.. firstly it would prove that life is not an ethereal force that originates with god.

there is no 'ghost in the machine', no elan vital.

“molecular fossils” he calls Urzymes — Ur meaning earliest or original.

whenever I r[h]ea[r]d "UR" I perk up my ears. like Uhr=" time piece" showing 4.5 billion years ago.

watchtower knows that the wives control the men, but don't want them to control the book too. ladies provide 90% of the blabber at the hall too, so wt does not want to be even in more of a bind. The true value of woman is priceless, never mind the jw slavery.
