Hello?
Into numbers are we?
Just a reminder that you should not just read your Bible but actually THINK about it.
Revelation.
The woman, representing Jehovah's anointed organization, gives birth to the child, the kingdom. What happens next?
She flies into the wilderness "out of the sight of the dragon."
STOP!
What does it mean, "out of the sight of the dragon"?
What is means is that the organization set up around the Messiah is a private organization. It's in secret. And therefore, it cannot be seen by the dragon or any of its organizations.
So if you're looking for a public gathering, you're not looking for the right thing then, are you?
In the meantime, you have the chance to decide for yourself what is "LIGHT" based upon your own examination of the Bible.
Matthew 24:29 says "immediately AFTER the great tribulation" there would be a period of darkness of the sun and moon and THEN is when the Messiah would arrive.
The WTS thinks the "great tribulation" is Armageddon. But the great tribulation is OVER before the Messiah even arrives.
So whose fault is it that you still want to follow the GB? They are not giving you any "light" from God's word. You don't have to believe me. But check the scriptures out.
Think about me. Think about my problem. I'm a witness. I'm reading Matthew 24:29 and it says the "great tribulation" is over before the Messiah arrives. Which is nothing of what the WTS is teaching. What am I to do? Accept what the GB says when I know it's wrong scripturally? No.
But if I decide I'm going to hang with them anyway, knowing I can see in the scriptures that it is wrong, will I have much of an excuse if that "broad road" leads to my destruction? No.
You're in charge of your own salvation. You need to stop following men and start following the Bible.
The GB is in darkness. Their false teachings are growing every day. The fact that they don't understand that the "great tribulation" was the HOLOCAUST and is over before the Messiah even arrives should tell you something.
Do yourself a favor. Become familiar with the 70-weeks prophecy. It has to be fulfilled by Cyrus. Know that.
Cheers,
