Everyone is inspired.

Yes, in smaller or bigger scale. But we need to accept that when talking about inspiration as general phenomenon and feature
in all humans we must not be focused only in religion aspects of this "divine" gift. Musician, poets, painters, writers, people who made things - all of them are inspired from time to time. 

But if one person or group claim that he/they are inspired ... or on contrary... if one person or group denied that gift in him/them and claim that they are not inspired while talking or doing something .... both of this group must be taken very carefully and warily. You never know what is with them :))))

”Jehovah leads and feeds those in the earthly part of his organization by means of “the faithful and discreet slave” under the direction of Christ, the “head of the congregation.” w16 November pp. 14-

So every changed teaching; say, about “this generation”, or failed Armageddon dates, was a gift from Christ, because the governing body ASKED for Holy spirit on the matter.  Or, did they forget

Check it out... Which change was the result of Christ's direction and not the Wt leaders' own understanding?

I do not know how it is in country you living, but chlorine is still implemented in water purification and much more.

This I agree with. Chemicals in our water, in our food in products, chemicals that damages the body and or the environment. The sad reality is even if you fight against it, there is no resolve and I learn this the hard way several years ago.

The one that indicates that "concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father."

I presume you are talking about what constitutes a "generation" in Jesus prophecy at Matt.24:34?

Well isn't it obvious? We cannot actually know how long the generation Jesus spoke of is until "all these things happen".

If Jesus wanted us to know how many years were meant here, he would have said the number of years wouldn't he surely? So actually trying to put a number to it by convoluted mental gymnastics based on 101 general understandings and comparisons of what constitutes a "generation", Biblical or otherwise, is just a game to play while you're waiting for the bus.

Nice table though , with an excellent theme scripture, very well demonstrated. That, I can use actually. Thanks. ?

What people also fail to see is that those of that generation, those destined for Priesthood are seeing the signs of the end times which will lead to a great tribulation that is possibly on a whole other hardcore level beyond of what we can understand. 1922 of what took place prior to the League of Nations well into the whole situation with Israel, jumping years upon years later, the sudden conquest for peace with religious leaders joining forces with bankers, politicians and even those of the MSM who supports them, making the claim since we all believe in one God we should unite, things of that nature of which was not really done before in the past, and it getting stronger and stronger each day and very visible to those destined and those among the righteous and meek.

Most certainly, this generation will not pass away, for these persons of the church do indeed see these things. Speaking about signs, the conversion of followers to a branch of these religious leaders will take place in several months, I can already see very soon this being talked about in the religious space by all persons, and surely I will address it here too for briefly I made this known in another post on this forum.

    • It appears to me that this is a key aspect of the 2030 initiative ideology. While the Rothschilds were indeed influential individuals who were able to sway governments, much like present-day billionaires, the true impetus for change stems from the omnipotent forces (Satan) shaping our world. In this case, there is a false God of this world. However, what drives action within a political framework? Power! What is unfolding before our eyes in today's world? The relentless struggle for power. The overwhelming tide of people rising. We cannot underestimate the direct and sinister influence of Satan in all of this. However, it is up to individuals to decide how they choose to worship God. Satanism, as a form of religion, cannot be regarded as a true religion. Consequently, just as ancient practices of child sacrifice had a place in God's world, such sacrifices would never be accepted by the True God of our universe. Despite the promising 2030 initiative for those involved, it is unfortunately disintegrating due to the actions of certain individuals in positions of authority. A recent incident serves as a glaring example, involving a conflict between peaceful Muslims and a Jewish representative that unfolded just this week. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/11/us-delegation-saudi-arabia-kippah?ref=upstract.com Saudi Arabia was among the countries that agreed to the initiative signed by approximately 179 nations in or around 1994. However, this initiative is now being undermined by the devil himself, who is sowing discord among the delegates due to the ongoing Jewish-Hamas (Palestine) conflict. Fostering antisemitism. What kind of sacrifice does Satan accept with the death of babies and children in places like Gaza, Ukraine, and other conflicts around the world, whether in the past or present, that God wouldn't? Whatever personal experiences we may have had with well-known individuals, true Christians understand that current events were foretold long ago, and nothing can prevent them from unfolding. What we are witnessing is the result of Satan's wrath upon humanity, as was predicted. A true religion will not involve itself in the politics of this world, as it is aware of the many detrimental factors associated with such engagement. It understands the true intentions of Satan for this world and wisely chooses to stay unaffected by them.
    • This idea that Satan can put Jews in power implies that God doesn't want Jews in power. But that would also imply that God only wants "Christians" including Hitler, Biden, Pol Pot, Chiang Kai-Shek, etc. 
    • @Mic Drop, I don't buy it. I watched the movie. It has all the hallmarks of the anti-semitic tropes that began to rise precipitously on social media during the last few years - pre-current-Gaza-war. And it has similarities to the same anti-semitic tropes that began to rise in Europe in the 900's to 1100's. It was back in the 500s AD/CE that many Khazars failed to take or keep land they fought for around what's now Ukraine and southern Russia. Khazars with a view to regaining power were still being driven out into the 900's. And therefore they migrated to what's now called Eastern Europe. It's also true that many of their groups converted to Judaism after settling in Eastern Europe. It's possibly also true that they could be hired as mercenaries even after their own designs on empire had dwindled.  But I think the film takes advantage of the fact that so few historical records have ever been considered reliable by the West when it comes to these regions. So it's easy to fill the vacuum with some very old antisemitic claims, fables, rumors, etc..  The mention of Eisenhower in the movie was kind of a giveaway, too. It's like, Oh NO! The United States had a Jew in power once. How on earth could THAT have happened? Could it be . . . SATAN??" Trying to tie a connection back to Babylonian Child Sacrifice Black Magick, Secret Satanism, and Baal worship has long been a trope for those who need to think that no Jews like the Rothschilds and Eisenhowers (????) etc would not have been able to get into power in otherwise "Christian" nations without help from Satan.    Does child sacrifice actually work to gain power?? Does drinking blood? Does pedophilia??? (also mentioned in the movie) Yes, it's an evil world and many people have evil ideologies based on greed and lust and ego. But how exactly does child sacrifice or pedophilia or drinking blood produce a more powerful nation or cabal of some kind? To me that's a giveaway that the authors know that the appeal will be to people who don't really care about actual historical evidence. Also, the author(s) of the video proved that they have not done much homework, but are just trying to fill that supposed knowledge gap by grasping at old paranoid and prejudicial premises. (BTW, my mother and grandmother, in 1941 and 1942, sat next to Dwight Eisenhower's mother at an assembly of Jehovah's Witnesses. The Eisenhower family had been involved in a couple of "Christian" religions and a couple of them associated with IBSA and JWs for many years.)
