Convention new book reveals "GROUP 2" of the 1914 generation...the horror.

by Witness 007 in

gods kingdom rules!

the convention book released yesterday....say hi to group 2 of the 1914 generation!!

a graph shows group 1 being fred franz john barr etc...with a group 2 consisting of the current young faithful slaves we "met" the "group ones.

William Penwell

William, yes they have added a third group, the "sanderson class' These are the newly "anointed" that had no contact with the first group, because they were born or more precisely were received the 'heavenly calling' after the likes of Freddy Franz died. These new ones are not Overlappers

Then they will just keep pushing the date further and further into the future. It makes me sick that people 40 years ago pinned all their hopes and died on the premise of these now failed prophecies.

At the memorial service I attended the other day the last comment by the elder was this October it is 100 years of Jesus reign. Outsiders in the audience must have been rolling their eyes with this comment. Makes the dubs out as what they are a bunch of wacko's. I also seen they had a flat screen TV on the wall for I guess the GB broadcasts.

Where does the WT pull up this crap? They were so sure of those that saw 1914 would not pass away. Now this? If in 20 or 30 years and his has come to fullfillment, are they going to add a 3rd group?

Purging and letting go of the past

by Skinnedsheep in

my wife and i decided that today would be the day that we would let go of the past.

we collected all of our watchtower published books and brochures and threw them out.

it was honestly bitter sweet to toss our old pioneer books, marked up insight books, and notes from 25 years of conventions.

William Penwell

It is hard to just walk away from 4 decades of your life. Like a death, it is time to move on.

Omfg They Made a graph. Idiots. My brother teased me once on this generation teaching Telling me I was not spiritual enough to understand it Ehhhh God I hate this jw bullshit.

Reminds me of the illustration of the train heading over the cliff that said 1975.

So the WT just extended their time line by a few more years. What happened to "this generation will by no means pass away" BS? Like the saying goes fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. I can't believe dubs that lived through the 1975 and 1990's fiasco still believe the lies.

Just watched a documentary on the Mormon church and I reckon they have got far more scandal and issues with BS doctrins than the witnesses ever did

by joe134cd in

must admit i didn't know a lot about the mormon church, so i decided to spend my saturday night exploring them on you tube.

after having viewed it i reckon the watchtower dosnt even come close to the scandal and total bs that surrounds the mormon church.

this is just 2 examples.

William Penwell

Mormonisn just another cult.

JW Info-Commercial Memorial Service

by William Penwell in

i attended a jw memorial service about 2 years ago and the speaker i thought gave a good eulogy to the diseased even though he quoted a few scriptures.

just recently i attended another jw memorial and the sermon was about 10 minutes on the person and the rest a big info-commercial with a scripture quoted one after the other.

i did not keep count but i would think the speaker read about 10 - 12 scriptures.

William Penwell

I have to say when spew off one scripture after the other it is only for the benifit of the other brain dead dubs in attendance as like I stated about it just puts off everyone else in attendance that is not a dub.

Awful WTBTS " infomercial " funeral service talk

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

w77 6/1 pp.

346-347 mourning and funeralsfor whom?

a funeral or memorial service?

William Penwell

The elder who gave the talk quickly squashed those efforts and clumsily said that the "service was over" and dismissed everyone. I WAS MORTIFIED!!!!!!!!!!

This is just another example of their self-righteous arrogance. It was not in one of their Kingdum Halls, then what is the harm. Not like they were doing devil worshipping or anything like that.

Away from the strictures of the kingdom hall, he had an absolutely lovely farewell, with even his JW siblings - my mother included - speaking spontaneously about him.

The best JW memorial I attended was one at a funeral home. They actually had a slide presentation to honor the diseased.
