need to "stay alive to xx75" to prove wt wrong? again?

by prologos in

you dont have be alive to 2075 to prove that the wt's anointed generation is and will prove to be wrong, it is!

and you can do it now, by asking just one question:.

does the "generation" prophecy of math.

prologos

Or by asking: Who cares what you WT freaks have to say

good point, but we do not ask to be enlightened, but to prove to them that the anointed generation is already wrong, like their other teachings that hang on 1914, and to start their exodus from wt land. thank you, scratch me 2 1010.

Or maybe Jesus meant the generation he was talking too there and nothing more.

well perhaps it does, but wt does not think so, and that belief has to be demolished to set more on the course to freedom. darkknight757 right?

Have you ever known a holocaust denier? How did you feel about them?

by Esse quam videri in

i sometimes did work for a lovely old couple who at times needed repairs done around their home.

my wife and myself spent time with them, having tea and crackers from time to time.

one day the husband and myself got into a conversation and he clearly showed himself to be a holocaust denier.

jwleaks" very interesting first hand details. and: was it not R. Hess that flew into great Britain to plead the Nazi's peace deal ? Do your sources have anything on that? was he trying to tap into the nazi-phile royals? . and I remember in the 1930s, people being beaten up for not saluting the Swastika flag, a typical jw stance, given their "no Superior Authorities to be honored" teaching.

You Have Been Looking Forward to This for a Long TIme - October 2nd 1914

by steve2 in

picture yourself as a member of the brooklyn bethel family on friday morning, october 2, 1914. you are seated at your usual place at the breakfast table, awaiting the arrival of brother c. t. russell.

suddenly the door to the dining room opens and brother russell appears.

he pauses for a moment, as is his custom, and greets the bethel family with a cheery “good morning, all.” but then, instead of immediately taking his place at the head of the table, he claps his hands and makes a thrilling announcement: “the gentile times have ended; their kings have had their day!” you can hardly contain your joy—you have been looking forward to this moment for a long time!

My father was old enough to have taking the emblems, with knowledge, and be among the overlapped generation, and may I add to the list?

in 1918, undaunted, 4 years later, wt, then under Rutherford, started a 4 year campaign " Millions now living will never die", a false hope promised, but changed now to a reassuring:

the generation will surely die.

in 1919, unbeknown to them, wt leadership became the first and only Faithful and Discreet Slave., demoting even the apostles.

Why isnt the overlapping generation( interpretation), consistently applied to these scriptures.?

by smiddy in

why does the wt interpret matt.24:34 "truly i say to you this generation will by no means pass away until all these things occur.

" as having overlapping generations ?

and not applying the same reasoning to any other scripture/s referring to a generation or this generation .?

prologos

Smiddy: good scripture: Philippians 2:15 : -- a crooked and twisted generation--"

The wt generation has turned out to be just that, crooked and twisted. like a rope, endlessly intertwined, currently in two groups, spliced together from the other frayed ends., that have disappeared in the fog of passed time. since 033 ce.

Jesus Christ was no Moses

by smiddy in

moses has a history of what 80+ years as a servant of jehovah ?

in one form or another .. moses wrote / penned the first five books of the bible and went through many trials and tribulations in serving his god jehovah in his long lifetime.interacting with god at times.. jesus was born and nothing is recorded of him until he is a young adolescent child ?

and very little about him.. then we are introduced to him when he is 30 years old and gets baptised ,and only then does he start his preaching .. does he start preaching to the world ?

prologos

Did he not spend a couple of nights in the Samaritan city of the lady at the well as well?but: he out-miracled Moses, in that one's place he could have walked the Israelites across the Red Sea, brought forth wine from the rock, ==

Why Finding the One True Religion is Impossible

by Simon in

jws like to think they have found the one true religion.

but like so many other religious people, it's usually the religion they were born into, the only religion they know because it's the first one they found or, at the most, one of two or three (typically the second one after they left their first / born-in faith).. the trouble is, there simply isn't enough time to explore and investigate each and everyone of the many thousands of belief systems, religions and sects around the world.. think of it this way: which is the best neighbourhood to live in where you would be most happy and most successful?

not just in the city or even the country you are in, but the entire world.. how would you ever know?

prologos

If there is a creator, would he not want to create with him? further his work ? fit in with nature? not killing animals or humans or fell trees to worship him, wt style?

Finding the true religion is impossible, founding the true religion is possible for yourself use, and live your best life.

The person that exposed me to wt literature was a Holocaust Denier, a rabid nazi ( a demented former SS member who had a heavy metal brain disorder from his occupation). an avid witness that could not shake the hate from his traumatised back ground ( not all war crimes were committed by the Nazis ). The plight of the Jewish people is so well documented, filmed. not just in the extermination camps, but the CO gas and bullet shoa. The US Air force even filmed the crematoria, and open pits in Auschwitz/ Birkenau, as they bombed the nearby, Inmates- build IG Farben/ Buna factories.

My father, who was a technician using Concentration Camp slave labor, was shown through the camp and its skeletal victims, and beaten (perhaps somebody knew is technical part of the inmate exploitation). I remember in 1938-39 the jewish neighbours wearing the yellow star, and that they all had dis-appeared ftom the neighbourhood when we returned after the war. Holocaust deniers are nuts as the person in the opening above, or vicious bigots.

Benjamin Schnell, no, I am computer illiterate, and pressed the quote button at the wrong time, and could not get rid of it. It was my question. it would be nice, if we all could use our real names, but hidden, with absolute security, for those like wt that are not entitled to it. and:

you will have to go north to latitude Masdras on August 21 ti be in total shadow. Why Schnell and not Jehu?
