Glaring contradiction between 1995 new light and Society's authority as FDS
by yaddayadda in

in the 15 october 1995 watchtower the society brought out 'new light' that although christ sat down as king in 1914, but he did not sit down on his 'glorious throne' mentioned at matt 25: 31 in that year.

i cant understand why the society bothered to make this change in 1995?

this change was in some ways more damaging to them than the generation change, because the society essentially sawed off the branch they were sitting on by announcing this 1995 new light.

The Watchtower has played a shell game, and the vast majority of dubs are far too numb to see it.
To keep the spin on this teaching, Watchtower has had to move the coconuts very often.
Take for example Mt. 24:45-46. The supposed answer to the slave question in verse 45 is found in verse 46, "on arriving" he appoints the slave. Here the WT uses their famous word "arriving" to point the reader back to 1914-1918. Yet, when you carefully examine the verse, right from the NWT reference edition, there is an asterisk on the word "arriving*" which takes you to the bottom of the page. The reference says "46* Lit., "having come." Gr., el-thon'.
In other words. the Literal translation from the Greek is "having come" which puts the fulfilment of verse 46 squarely in the future as fully in context with the verses before and after. Verse 42 says "Keep on the watch... your Lord is COMING." Verse 44 says "... the son of man is COMING" Verse 46 says "...on having COME he finds him doing so" and verse 50 says "...the master of that slave will COME on a day that he does not expect and in an hour that he does not know..." which takes us back to verse 36 "Concerning that day and hour NOBODY KNOWS..."
But dubs are too numb to see it.

I read the last post and was sitting here pondering what it would be like to have helpers within my own congregation.

JWs are allowed to sit on one side of this machine, but not the other.(see link below)
On one side, a witness may sit and recieve life-saving fractions that gAwd will allow. But if that same witness sits on the other side, he or she will be disfellowshipped, shunned by peers, kinfolk and gAwd allFrighty for donating blood.
On one side of the Baxter AMICUS Separator, a "worldly" non-'witness who will die at Armageddon can sit comfortably and donate blood, but a witLess may not for fear of "displeasing God" and being TERMINATED AT ARMAGEDDON. But it's OKAYSIE with gAwd if you get the goods on the other side.

Only now after years have I made headway with my parents and now my wife's parents.
It's not easy, but that doesn't mean you should give up trying.

That's interesting. There are actually many avenues to be explored when helping JWs see the truth.
JWs have such an aversion to the truth, unless it's watered down be watchtowerism to the point that it doesn't resmble the truth anymore.
Like coolaid with rat poison. Watchtower would still call it "coolaid" but it's not "coolaid" anymore... is it?

"...informing the public about this Cult"
I like it very much. I just sent a letter to the local newspaper. Well, actually it's more than a letter. I can't go into too much detail, but I put in a copy of the new "Doomsday Tract" as I have been calling it. You know, the one we start to deliver tomorrow.
I will say this, the WTS's tract leaves alot of room for interpretation. Folks might get the wrong idea about the WTS. So I included a paper with quite a few WT quotes so that there will be less confusion.It will be an eye opener.
I wonder if the kingdum hall phone is ringing...?

JWdaughter... your Mom is still in? There is a procedure whereby you can help her. But I must saay that in the end, all you may achieve is bettering your personal relationship with her. She may not budge from the Borg.
My mother-in-law knows quite many things. But she sticks. Sometimes the adage holds true, "you can't teach an old dog new tricks." The reason is that the old dog doesn't want to learn. Even if it meant dying, they don't care anymore. I think they feel that life has passed them by.
The older generation has been doing it for so long that even if they were eywitnesses the a governing body orgy which included farm animals, they could still not move. Abused people often seek further abuse. It's a type of mental illness and it's widespread.
