"Keeping up with Jehovah's Chariot"

by FusionTheism in

clarified understandings / new light of the past 7 years or so:.

* the faithful and discreet slave is only the governing body and only since 1919.. * the faithful slave was appointed in 1919 by jesus but it will not receive its greater authority until the judgment of the sheep and goats.. * charles taze russell was not part of the faithful and discreet slave.. * there was no slave for 1900 years before 1919.. * there may not have been any anointed during those 1900 years, but it's possible there were a few.. * 1935 was not the cut-off date for the selection of the anointed-- this selection is still ongoing.

* 1935 has no special biblical significance.. * 1918 has no special biblical significance.. * gog of magog is not satan, but is a coalition of nations, who may be ruled by the mysterious king of the north.. * there is no evil slave class.

I'm just glad it's becoming legal to smoke weed in this country because to be a JW ones needs the weed.

We are slowly moving away from that kind of preaching work

by oppostate in

john hoyle--jws go knocking on strangers doors and try to get inside homes to preach.. wt rep--we are slowly moving away from that kind of preaching work, we do more preaching by using literature carts and personal telephone calls.. .

the above quote is from john hoyle's website:http://insidethewatchtower.com/doctrine/phone-calls-to-bethel-jw-org-email-and-contacts/.

it's interesting, isn't it?

Crazyguy

That's hilarious because they always made it as though they were the truth because they were the only ones going house to house. Probably stopping this kinda of work do to the pedophile problem. They also don't want followers exposed to ttatt or any other message that may wake them up. The cart witnessing is to keep them busy but they don't talk to people anymore. They know they don't get new ones in thier just trying to keep ones from leaving and indoctrination the kids.

Blood Transfusion Options for Parents

by ctrwtf in

jw
friends

i didn't want to hijack the anderson's informative thread below, so i thought i'd post something i've been thinking about for quite awhile now, regarding children and blood transfusions.. even the bloodthirsty god the wits worship probably wouldn't hold it against a child if their legal guardian forced them to have a blood transfusion.

legally, morally, even cognitively children especially as young as the tyke in the story referenced cannot make decisions for themselves.

so this story, and many others, is not about the child's will but rather the parents will.

Crazyguy

I was like so many JW's most of my life. I would refuse the blood and die I even thought fractions were a bad idea. When talking to a hospital liason person about blood I was informed of all the options available to my wife and unborn child should they need it. Most of these options had blood in them or some ingredients of blood anyway. I decided that I would do some research about the whole subject and we'll let's just say. If there was a hell every GB and leader of this cult should go there immediately do not pass go, but go there now!

Going back to the 2008 Generation

by FusionTheism in

it looks to me like the society is rapidly moving back to the february 2008 watchtower "new light" on "this generation," which said this:.

* jesus used "this generation" to mean "anointed ones.".

* in the first fulfillment, jesus was promising that some anointed ones would still be alive to witness the events of 70 c.e.. * in the secondary fulfillment, jesus was promising that some anointed ones would still be alive when jesus returns to judge the sheep and goats.. the new 2015 jw research guide posted on jw.org lists this 2008 watchtower article as the first article people should read about the "clarified understanding" of the generation.. this 2008 view also matches the statement in the new 2015 jesus--the way, the truth, the life book, which says that "this generation" refers to disciples who see the signs of the last days.. i think they are abandoning the overlapping part..

Does this mean I have a pea brain too? Oh crap!

Sounds like maybe thier going to say that the generation that sees these events fulfilled. So they could be setting it up for a future fulfillment stating that the generation will not exist until the tribulation starts. Then they can dismiss thier whole generation of 1914 and the overlapping crap and say it's still a future event that's going to happen very soon.

Where is hemopure in all this? I thought the JW elders through the liason committee were advising thier members to take hemopure.

New (non)-Witnessing Model

by berrygerry in

so, one of the kids on reddit posted this video - an evangelist trying to witness to guardians of the cart.

(both sides are fairly respectful imo).

Great video, witnesses aren't witnesses anymore thier stumps. I tried to explain this very thing the good news to my wife and it was just as he was experiencing. Deaf ears, JW's are so right everyone else so wrong.

Was the Economic Collapse of 2008 and the obvious Money Grab by the Organization a Coincidence?

by My Name is of No Consequence in

let me start off by saying that the org has always been trying to get money.

but is it a coincidence that they have been so in-your-face about it since 2008?

in 2008, most of the world experienced an economic drop-off that it has not witnessed since the 1930s and is still struggling to recover from..

Crazyguy

The down turn caused thier investments to go in the toilet, donations by the members have slowed big time. The tax man of many nations desperate for revenue is and has started changing the rules he can get more from people including non prophets like the borg. The Borg is desperate that's why they sold off most of new York. Now they may of Stade off disaster but thier obviously changing so their solvent in the future.
