Hello Everyone,


I was just skimmng through the 3/15/07 issue of the Watchtower. I found the information on Pages 8 - 11 interesting. :dontknow: :185:
Jehovah's Word Is Alive (Highlights From the Book of Jeremiah).


Particularly page 10:

Under: 6:16

7:1-15

17:5-8

I also found intersting the information on pages 12 and 13. Look! the Light is Wonderful! Particularly Page 13 under subheading A Light to Our Roadway. Especially latter paragraph of that subheading.

What's my point? :D

Just that at times I feel there is a real struggle within the departments that give us the information in these articles.

At times we are told to follow the leading of the slave and other times we are told Not to put our trust in anyone accept Jehovah......

KEEP ON THE WATCH AND PRAY CONTINUALLY. I know if we do this, we will never be confused or shocked by what we see in our publications or hear from the platforms. If we stay focused on Jehovah and his Word, we will always know what to do.

I HAVE COMPLETE TRUST AND FAITH IN JEHOVAH AND HIS WORD. He has not brought us all to this point with the knowledge we now have for nothing. CONTINUE TO HOLD ON TIGHT OKEY DOKEY.

If we are grounded in Jehovah's Word we will no longer be tossed about.

Also, side note. The Watchtower today was interesting. Only 4 or 5 people were actively participating in commenting. The same 4 or 5 on each paragraph and there was lots of silence to the point that it was beginning to get uncomfortable. I wonder what the conductor was really feeling. Oh, I almost forgot, the hall was almost empty today, I am not being dramatic.

Also, two of the 5 people commenting did keep saying: Possibly, We do not know for sure. And I was saying to myself inside ummmm hmmmmm. I do not think this made the conductor feel very secure. Oh my my. Well we will see what happens next week when we discuss 1/15/07 - TEACH WHAT THE BIBLE REALLY TEACHES.

May Jehovah continue to bless us as he helps us to use the information he has allowed us to understand to grow and also to help others when the time is right.

What exciting and dramatic times we are living in now.

KEEP HOLDING ON TIGHT to JEHOVAH'S WORD AND PRAY INCESSANTLY.

Love to you all

E & E

To be honest with people here, I don't read the entire Watchtower anymore. I just pick and choose the articles.

Some of the stuff i have been reading has done nothing but leave questions in my mind. I have yet to read the study article for this past week since i did not go to the meeting on Sunday. To be honest I haven't gone the past week at all. Been real discouraged over things that are studied.

I was at that WT study. I sat in amazement as the WT conductor went through some intricate mental gymnastics to fit 1914, Christ's ongoing parousia and the ongoing first resurrection together!

So smart and yet so blind. How sad.

Hi Juan,

I found the conductor doing the same thing with the dates, etc.

I really do believe in my heart that those present were just shocked. I do not believe that this Sunday they were in a trance. As I looked around no one seemed like they were sleep. I sure would liked to have been able to peek inside some of their minds to find out what their real thoughts were on this information.

I'm not reinstated yet, and there are a few who still speak to me, wave and smile, I really do believe these ones may have some understanding as to what is what. I will find out once I am back in "good standing" :icon_rolleyes:

Everyone take care, we certainly are living in EXCITING AND DRAMATIC TIMES AS I ALWAYS SAY HOLD ON TIGHT OKEY DOKEY, PLEASE DO NOT PULL BACK NOW.

WoW! That must have been some feat for your WT Study conductor to pull all that off. BTW - congratulations on your reinstatement Juan! I know we aren&#39;t supposed to clap after such an announcement but I am clapping anyway. Hope you can hear me?
