  Pawn to Queen 2034 anyone?

  by Fisherman in

  not a  hint of a new date for the great tribulation.

  the attitude of jw is that they expect it immediately although the inter-lapping anointed allows for any additional extended time.

  given the time of the end, the end comes after the good news is preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations with the internet and 108 years and tons of publications even in finnish.

  Thread title suggests a game of chess, but I think it's more like that stage of 'Hangman' where the arms and legs have been drawn, and the players have started drawing fingers and toes on the stick figure.

  what is spiritual warfare to you?

  i experienced a situation that i could clearly say was spiritual warfare.

  I think this is better known as 'theocratic warfare' or 'theocratic war strategy'.

  That is, that the truth is something you only have to tell to those entitled to know it.

  How many still getting boosters?

  by ExBethelitenowPIMA in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  either you think the governing body was correct giving direction to be fully vaccinated and do you will keep getting the boosters, or.... if you don’t think the boosters are safe and you decide not to keep getting them then you are admitting that the direction was wrong.. if the direction was indeed harming brothers and sister who kept going to get these injections because of the covid updates then this is a huge wake up call?.

  how could this direction from the gb who are i doubt jehovah give such harmful direction?.

  "Vaccination never prevented anything and never will, and is the most barbarous practice...We are in the last days; and the devil is slowly losing his hold, making a strenuous effort meanwhile to do all the damage he can, and to his credit can such evils be placed. ... Use your rights as American citizens to forever abolish the devilish practice of vaccinations." Golden Age 1921 Oct 12 p.17

  "Thinking people would rather have smallpox than vaccination, because the latter sows the seed of syphilis, cancers, escema, erysipelas, scrofula, consumption, even leprosy and many other loathsome affections. Hence the practice of vaccination is a crime, an outrage and a delusion." Golden Age 1929 May 1 p.502

  "Avoid serum inoculations and vaccinations as they pollute the blood stream with their filthy pus." Golden Age 1929 Nov 13 pp.106-107

  dear friends,.

  i think you all know me as a person who has always strived, despite my imperfections to only ever wanting to be and remain in the “truth”.

  it is in fact what i so desperately want for my son ashton and my baby girl honey bee, to be lovers of truth and grow up to be a loyal servants of jehovah god and his son, jesus christ.

  This is the kind of clue a writer of a parody throws in as a wink to the reader.

  If it's real, then I suggest proof reading would have helped, and wish OP all the best regardless.

  Watchtower Museums

  by eyeslice in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  now covid restrictions are over, they're pushing on with watchtower museums at many locations through out the world.. looks to me as if they'll be pretty boring.

  a few old bibles and photos of the witnessing work from way back when.. one things for sure is they won't include anything relating to constantly changing doctrines or have libraries full of old publications that have since been swept under the carpet..

  I hope there's a display of 'donation boxes through the years'. And at the end, a donation box.

  It wasn't Disney that put a 1950s diner in Attack of the Clones. Space Vespas would seem to be in line with George Lucas' 'creative vision'. You know, 'It's like poetry, it rhymes!'

  Star Wars (1977) had the creative input of the former Mrs Lucas. The subsequent movies took a nose dive once George Lucas had everything his own way.

  by Listener in

  a topic was started over at reddit directing people's attention to a depiction on jw.org of the governing body.

  it's not in their publication, only on the website under the topic of "what is the governing body?

  but who are these guys in the depiction?.

  I reckon someone realised it would be easier to use an anonymous representative image than it would to keep 'photoshopping' an image of the real governing body. Because surely in the near future there will be some more departures.
