Priest and prophet go astray because of alcohol

[PJ54]

Which Scripture is that?

The reference bible uses the term dungy

(Leviticus 26:30) 30 And I shall certainly annihilate YOUR sacred high places and cut off YOUR incense stands and lay YOUR own carcasses upon the carcasses of YOUR dungy idols; and my soul will simply abhor YOU.
(Deuteronomy 29:17) 17 And YOU used to see their disgusting things and their dungy idols, wood and stone, silver and gold, that were with them
(1 Kings 15:12) 12 Accordingly he had the male temple prostitutes pass out of the land and removed all the dungy idols that his forefathers had made.
(1 Kings 21:26) 26 And he went acting very detestably by going after the dungy idols, the same as all that the Amʹor·ites had done, whom Jehovah drove out from before the sons of Israel.’”
(2 Kings 17:12) 12 And they continued to serve dungy idols, concerning which Jehovah had said to them: “YOU must not do this thing”;
(2 Kings 21:11) 11 “For the reason that Ma·nasʹseh the king of Judah has done these detestable things, he has acted more wickedly than all that the Amʹor·ites did that were prior to him, and he proceeded to make even Judah sin with his dungy idols. . .
(2 Kings 21:21) 21 And he kept walking in all the way that his father had walked, and he continued serving the dungy idols that his father had served and bowing down to them.
(Jeremiah 50:1, 2) . . .: 2 “Tell [it] among the nations and publish [it]. And lift up a signal; publish [it]. Hide nothing, O men. Say, ‘Babylon has been captured. Bel has been put to shame. Merʹo·dach has become terrified. Her images have been put to shame. Her dungy idols have become terrified.’

Then there's 40 mentions in Ezekiel.

The closest I can see in the 2013 NWT is this:

(Malachi 2:3) 3 “Look! I will ruin your sown seed because of you, and I will scatter dung on your faces, the dung of your festivals; and you will be carried away to it.

I think I've had enough dung for 1 day, tbh

I have been getting stuck, pondering on this scripture repeatedly the last few years. Luke 21:8, "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.' Do not go after them.'"
Jesus said--"DO NOT GO AFTER THEM "
So if my mom had known what Jesus said---she never would have listened to the Witnesses in the first place. And only Jehovah knows where I'd be right now if that had been the case. Nobody that knew/knows what Jesus said would have/should have listened to anything coming from the Watchtower according to this scripture. Can anyone help me make sense of this?

We still must stay awake as Jesus cautioned but as imperfect humans have a tendency to do, they took it too far by saying that Jesus was enthroned and that they are the self-proclaimed channel. I also suspect that we will be judged on whether or not we accept correction when it comes.

Mark 13:33: “Keep looking, keep awake, for you do not know when the appointed time is.”

JWs and ex-JWs alike are all talking about the big policy changes on dress and grooming and disfellowshipping, etc, etc. Meanwhile, has anyone even noticed that the WT repudiated itself, that now getting out of Babylon the Great is no longer paramount, and that the GB is saying that some might change their hearts after God's final judgment? Does this even register with JW's as a casual disavowal of the Scriptures and what had been considered the truth? I find it astounding that not only has the WT canceled everything it ever stood for but JWs don't even seem to have noticed. Apparently, many a-lamps have run low on oil, and the light dims, so gradually, it goes unnoticed.

When the spiritual food is constantly pablum the brain goes numb.

Patricia , I am very grateful to the WTB&TS for giving me the basic truth . I would hazard a guess that practically everyone here is in agreement with that . I did however see that there were things wrong with the 1914 statement , and other prophesies . The Watchtowers basic truth is what has got us where we are today , but it is our seeing if everything that has been said comes from Jehovah that has brought us to Roberts site , and believe me , I spent years looking at many ex J/W sites . I believe that the fact that you are here , is what may also of brought your mother also to this site .
