Do any jw pubs say "Due time has approached" ala Luke 21:8?

by Check_Your_Premises in

luke 21:8.

8 he said: "look out that you are not misled; for many will come on the basis of my name, saying, i am he, and, the due time has approached.

just curious.

Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, including those who pierced him. All the tribes of the earth will mourn over him. Even so, Amen. (WEB)

Can this be more clear or should we parse it in such a way as to apply to a select group of 6 million who had to be told that they could "see" him?

there was so much hoo-hah prior to the films release, that i became ever determined to see it as soon as it hit town!.

the church leaders were up in arms about it, mary whitehouse became almost apoplectic, it was almost the end of civilisation as we knew it!.

well, we duly toddled off to see it.

Coordinator: Crucifixion?

Stan: Yes.

Coordinator: Good. Out of the door, line on the left, one cross each.

[Next prisoner]

Coordinator: Crucifixion?

Stan: Er, no, freedom actually.

Coordinator: What?

Stan: Yeah, they said I hadn't done anything and I could go and live on an island somewhere.

Coordinator: Oh I say, that's very nice. Well, off you go then.

Stan: No, I'm just pulling your leg, it's crucifixion really.

Coordinator: [laughing] Oh yes, very good. Well... Stan: Yes I know, out of the door, one cross each, line on the left.

YOU'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!

well, today i began to think there really was no point in trying to argue a point in a reasonable reasoning way with a jw, after all, there's non so blind as those who will not see.. i saw my, mother, again and we had a humungous scrap on the wtbts.

she wanted to know if i expected her to return to the rcatholic church as that's the religion she originated in.

she told me how she had been badly beaten by the nuns and that on one occasion when she had missed class and gone to the cinema instead she had received such a severe clobbering that she could barely sit down for a week.

Bush - Idiot Hypocrite

by Simon in

jerusalem - president bush said on israeli television he could consider using force as a last resort to press iran to give up its nuclear program..

erm ... doesn't israel have nuclear weapons?

i guess they are allowed to do what they want eh?

TonyT

Lets end the hypocrisy.

In the name of fairness let the UN dispense nukes to any countries that want them no matter how unstable the regime.

At least we won't have to worry about problems like global warming.
