  by Kosonen in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  there is an unfulfilled prophecy in daniel about the last king that will be broken without human hand.

  the prophecy says he will be fierce-looking, deceptive, efficent in his doings, smart and causing ruin to many.

  and he will exalt himself.

  I would suggest that you get help. For one the book of Daniel was written much later and after the so called events recorded in the book. The gospels were also written after the fact much later. The book of Revelations the writers pulled from the book of Enoch as well as some of the minor prophets . He also smoked a bowl and ate some shrooms !

  Matthew 24:34 not fulfilled in the first century

  by Jules Saturn in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i was discussing with an elder the generation teaching and telling him when jesus christ says in matthew 24:34 “truly i say to you that this generation will by no means pass away until all these things happen.” he was referring to the generation from the first century in 33 ad and these events that were to take place took place with the destruction of jerusalem in 70 ad.

  now the elder tells me to go back to a few verses to from verses 29-33 which read: .

  “immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun will be darkened,+ and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.+ 30 then the sign of the son of man will appear in heaven, and all the tribes of the earth will beat themselves in grief,+ and they will see the son of man+ coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

  I would just like to say that I firmly believe that the writings of the gospels were written after 70 Ad and many of the details to what was said an done came out of Joshepus writtings. He mentions several Jesus’s and what they said and did and was done to them. If you take all the jesus and add together their stories they could easily make up the story of the Son of God jesus. Same can be said to some of the events Josephus wrote about during the war and destruction of Jerusalem.

  There’s obvoius throw backs to Writtings found in the Old Testament and the writer of Mathew was doing his darndest to make Jesus fulfill prophecies so much so he had him doing things that weren’t prophecies at all.

  Peters sermon at Acts chapter two goes along with Vader’s thoughts . This sermon explains in plain detail that Peter was saying it, that they were that last generation.

  so i woke up this morning with nothing planned for the day.

  i rolled out of bed around 9am and went to local mcky ds to get some breakfast, and lord and behold there was a group of jdubs sitting around eating and sipping on coffee, probable counting time.

  anyway, i glanced over and recognized all of them and they glanced back at me.

  Who’s to say these things didn’t occur, the Romans could of easily blown trumpets when attacking Jerusalem. The son/Sun of man did come in the clouds for all to see .

  Ex CO over at Reddit stated when serving in his Latin American area that the growth just wasn’t there . Despite the reported 4 % growth I believe he stated all he really saw was maybe one family that joined or a relative or two coming in but nothing major. Another thing to ask is if Central Africa is growing so much why did they close the branch in that area?

  The Elephant in the room: ExJw disunity

  by Diogenesister in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  fantastic new video by the lovely susan gaskin and friend andrea discusses the huge variety of exjw opinions and why our supposed disunity is in reality our strength.

  the witnesses will claim we cannot agree and there are nothing but fights and a lack of harmony within our community whereas they are the most unified religion who believe the same things where ever you go.

  however andrea points out that this is just an illusion, there is no unity amoung jws.

  Strange

  by Jrjw in

  2. beliefs

  a couple of times at the meetings this year we've been told that in the future we might get some strange directions from the society that might not make any sense to us.

  then they've said will we show our loyalty to jehovah by still obeying?

  seems a rather unusual thing to say.

  Israel (Is Real?)

  every nation is a kind of weird intellectual construct.

  when we say: china--all of us get some kind of fictional mental snapshot in our head.

  sure, there is a country called "china".we just don't really know a soul living there.

  Sure Israel is real now but there’s a lot of evidence that it may have not really existed back in the days when were led to believe Israel was a nation then wiped out by the Assyrians. The evidence from Egypt is a mistranslation.
