WT ADMITS TO MAKING PROPHESIES
 

The following information is taken directly from WT & Awake magazines.

I will scan some of the material so that you can see the originals & some of it I will type in as the space on the web page is running out.
 

First part is Scanned from WT magazine September 1 - 1997 page 21 & 22
 
 
As you can see from section 15 WT clearly admits to being eager in making false prophesy. Note the date 1914 also. Hmmm!!! Now in Awake magazine dated May 6, 1998 they say this:
 
I will scan the entire page so that you see the whole picture & deception.
The bits that are really of interest are Highlighted in GREEN
 
There are few things to point out on this page:
1: last paragraph on R/h side & top paragraph on L/h side WT clearly states that Knowledge of Fulfilling Prophecies of God
"IS NOT UNDER HUMAN JURISDICTION"
Which is 100% true!!
But for WT to admit to that & then go &s ay that they DID Prophecy & their Prophecies FAILED - Then according to Deuteronomy 18: 20 - 22 tells us this: NIV Text.
 
"But a prophet who presumes to speak in my name ANYTHING I have not commanded him to say, or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, must be put to death. 21 You may say to yourself, 'How can we know when a message HAS NOT been spoken by the Lord?' 22 If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the Lord Does NOT Take Place or come True, that is a message the Lord has NOT Spoken, Do not be afraid of him."
 
AS you can see from the Scripture - ANYONE who proclaims something that does NOT come true is NOt From God.
 
That being the case - then WT IS NOT God's prophet as they have proclaimed prophecies which have NOT come true & have ADMITTED to Doing so in their OWN Publications.
 
Then they MUST BE False Prophet & NOT God's Witness today as GOD Does Not say things & then those things DON'T Come True. Or does He?? {Emphasis mine}
 
 
What do you say??
 
GB & WT have many times said that Jehovah Speaks to them today:
For example  WT magazine dated July 15 th 1998 page 14 section 21:
 
"How happy we are that Jehovah IS Still speaking to us today, Through His Word & His ORGANIZATION!"
 
I ask you, If this was true - Why didn't their prophecies come true??
 
Because they are NOT God's Prophet!!
 
Anything that God says COMES TRUE - Right!!
 
 
May be what they said in WT magazine of May 15th  1998 page 19 has something to do with it.
 
"Another test we light face relates to .. the counsel provided by the Faithful slave class.. Will we QUESTION the Wisdom of the Counsel offered?"
 
May be WT magazine of June 1 - 1998 page 17 gives us a better example:
 
"How vividly these examples teach us to Listen to counsel and to respect those whom Jehovah uses in position of responsibility!! .. Some will, at times, criticize  a decision made by a Body of Elders or Judicial committee.  Never would we want to pose a spiritual danger to others."
 
May be WT magazine of August 15th 1998 page 12 section 11:
 
" Those who view Jehovah as their confidence also show confidence in the MEN Jehovah chooses to use in the outworking of His purpose.. For us today, IT MEANS HAVING CONFIDENCE IN 'THE FAITHFUL AND DISCRETE SLAVE appointed to give us 'Spiritual Food at the proper time,' as well as those from among them who from  Governing Body." Matthew 24: 45
 
Section 12 goes on to say:
 
"Actually, PLACING Our Confidence in those taking the lead in the Christian congregation is for OUR OWN BENEFIT."
 
Wouldn't you say that those passages are interesting to read??
 
In WT magazine of March 15th 1998 page 11 we read this;
 
"Some may have been told that Jehovah's Witness belong to a religious organization that enslaves its members, exercises authoritarian control over them, unduly restricts their freedom, and throws them out of step with society as a whole."
 
On page 19 it continues:
 
"In order to avoid misunderstanding, Jehovah's Witness try to be careful about how they express themselves. Instead of saying, 'The SOCIETY TEACHES,' many Witness prefer to use such expressions as, 'The Bible says' or ' I Understand the Bible to teach.' In this way they emphasize the personal decision that each Witness has made in accepting Bible teachings and also avoid  giving the false impression that Witness are somehow bound to the dictates of some Religious sect."
 
How do those words strike you??
 
Talk about placing the blame on INDIVIDUAL JW's - Who after all are FOLLOWING the WT Teachings word for word.
 
Please note what the same magazine on Page 18 says:
 
 
".. the Witness USE Watch Tower Society as a legal instrument .. the Witness are dedicated to God, not to any legal agency..  If as Witness makes decision on the basis of Bible counsel OFFERED BY THE GOVERNING BODY, he does so of his own volition because his own study of the Bible has convinced him that this is the proper course. Each  Witness is influenced  by God's own word to apply sound Scriptural counsel offered by  Governing Body, in full recognition that decisions he makes will affect his personal relationship with God, to whom he is dedicated."
 
I ask you - as  a reader of this page!!
 
WHO IS DICTATING the terms - Bible  it's self or Governing Body??
 
Do you find these words interesting??
 
I Hope that you can see who is in effect DIRECTING Individual JW's decisions.
 
It is NOT the Bible it's self as ALL the directives come from GB & hence each JW MUST Follow these directives or else he / she is disfellowshipped.
 
If you want to read more about disfellowshipping rules & regulations- Then a Good read is Ray Franzes book 'Chris's of Conscience" page 293 second edition. Even WT magazine of August 1 - 1980 page 17 is also a good read on this subject.
