the great pyramid and the flood of noah.

5 but, wanting so much to be right about this, they overlook the fact that it was by god’s word that long ago there were heavens, and there was land which arose out of water and existed between the waters, 6 and that by means of these things the world of that time was flooded with water and destroyed.________________________________________________.
Notice how they the cult doesn't talk about the flood in detail anymore, they admitted the earth could be older then they thought back in 2013 and again don't talk about it anymore. This cult is only using about 10 percent of the Bible now to push their doctrine. The rest of the book just causes them problems.
One other thought, ice core samples from the South Pole and Greenland prove no Noah's flood event happened not for at least the last 800,000 years.
i wanted to relay an example that i heard about translating difficulties.
take the 5 word phrase.
"i didn't eat your sandwich".
Over 90% of the world could not read or write during the time we've been told the Bible books were written. Why would an all powerful all loving god use this way to communicate his wishes to the people , knowing all to well that men that could read would just tell the people what they wanted in order to get power and wealth?
for the first time in my life i get to fully enjoy the nfl season without missing games i really want to see because of meetings and service!😀 go seahawks!.
To bad the hawks look as bad as last year. They need to trade away Graham for some line talent.
gorby went for family reasons today, sunday, to the convention in switerbant, netherlands.. from the start it was clear, a fully media event.
country, gospel and choir songs combined with socio emotional videos for tear teasing.
some sisters danced with their hips.
Her smile tells you what, that she agrees? The JWs really are simple minded people.
the great pyramid and the flood of noah.

Great thread, this is one subject that just kills the Bible and taking it literally. According to the JWs timeline the pyramids at Giza had to be built before the flood. Even if they could some how argue this way there's one issue they can't. Mizraim, the patriarch of Egypt according to the Bible. But wait there literally a thousand years of Egyptian kings before this guy written in stone and on the Turin list as well as several temples in Egypt. These kings most have been confirmed by archaeologists. That's again one thousands years of Egyptian history and kings before the grandson of Noah came on the seen.
We also need to remember (if the JWs are correct) after they were all killed by the flood Noah's grandson moved to Egypt had kids and his offspring picked up right were the Egyptians left off , building the same way , worshiping the same gods, making the same kind of temples , dressing the same , and then built more pyramids, the same way.
the internet is what helped bring me and so many others out of this evil organization or at least confirmed our doubts.
i have to say, i have seen quite a few youtube videos recently of ex jw's secretly recording their interactions inside of different congregations, halls, etc and see how empty the halls are!
so many people comment on how the attendance is so low, far more emptier than when i was in 6 years ago, even on a weekday meeting.
Slimboyfat, great post because you hit the nail on the head. Their retention sucks and I've noticed that if your in a congregation with lots of social people doing lots of things it may work out better for the cult at keeping ones in longer. But in all reality a lot of congregations have little going on members are not that friendly lots of cliques etc. Those congregations chase their members away .
cults truly have to keep their members in a vacuum or they lose them. Your going to hear more and more the cult telling its members not to watch tv go on the internet look at any info etc.
hey just wanted to ask if anyone here knows where i could find a legit copy of the finished mystery, one of charles taze russell's books if i'm not mistaken?
there's a couple of older brothers and sisters that i know, you think it's a good idea to ask if they have a copy?
i've seen some on amazon and even on ebay but again not entirely sure if they're legit or not.
It was written after Russell died supposedly Rutherford wrote it but he wrote that he was being guided by Russell who was one of the angels spoken about in the book of Revelations.
so...i watched the new netflix movie, "uncknowledged" by dr steven greer today fierce hearing to dj's discussing it on the radio, minds blown.
it makes a strong case for ufo's and totally screws up jw doctrine about the earth having the only intelligent life in the universe, as it is where the issue of universal sovereignty is played out and decided....the gb will need to do some fast talking.
it will be fascinating to blow some jw minds with this.
Didn't listen will check it out but the thought that this planet is the only one with any intelligent life is just plain stupid!
in the past, i have known many brothers that had trekked down to the southern us to perform relief work on behalf of the wtbt$.
they return as heros.
they shared the repairing and rebuilding of kh and the property of fellow believers.
I think they want local elders or Ldc brothers running the show down there. They then can get the insurance checks and have local brothers do all the work. Done, maybe they didn't take you up on your offer because they hadn't thought of the scam yet or they didn't want to expose themselves in some way by using you?.
my family has been nice acting after a family member eavesdropped on me and learn that i don't like jws any more.but how mad and the feeling of getting backstabed when i had my hole family got mad at me at one time.i love my family and understand why they acted that way but that feeling of getting backstabed never goes away i have tryed to put the feeling in back of my mind but he always comes back when i talk to a family..
Remember their victims too.
