If inconsistencies or predictions made the Organization false, Jehovah by this point in time would no longer have a visible organization, with more than 8 million faithful servants, but what evil apostates don't understand is that even starting back from about 51 C.E., some in Thessalonica were wrongly predicting that “the presence” of the Lord Jesus was imminent. (2 Thess. 2:1, 2) By about 55 C.E., some in Corinth had rejected the clear Christian teaching regarding the resurrection of the dead. (1 Cor. 15:12) About 65 C.E., others said that the resurrection had already taken place, it being of a symbolic kind that living Christians experience.-2 Tim. 2:16-18. There have always been unsatisfied apostates, complaining about the different "inconsistencies", and "erroneous dates and times" that would eventually end up getting clarified anyway, and along the way, since the days of Cain, apostates have been bailing out from the road that leads to everlasting life, and until now Jehovah's Organization is still existing,,, and will continue to exist WITH US,,,, OR WITHOUT US, whether we like it or not. Jehovah’s dealings with his servants in the past have shown that understanding of his purposes often comes gradually. Does it mean that because past servants did not always come up with the correct understanding, or correct prediction made them fake or false? NO, even Abraham did not know just how God’s promise regarding the “seed” would work out. Daniel did not understand the final outcome of his prophecies. John the Baptizer, who introduced the Messiah, later asked to be enlightened as to whether another was coming. Jesus himself did not know the day and hour of the “great tribulation.” The apostles had to learn progressively that the kingdom is heavenly and that Gentiles, too, may inherit it. It was only upon receiving the book of Revelation that the early Christians learned that Christ’s reign would be 1,000 years long and that he would have 144,000 joint heirs. So is it wise to leave Jehovah's Organization to now be part of nothing, as in becoming part of the (Ex JW Community) with no possibility of living for eternity? hands down NO
Even Peter didn't understand when the Kingdom was coming. Jesus does chose who rules with him in his Kingdom. John 13:6 Then he came to Simon Peter. He said to him: “Lord, are you washing my feet?” 7 Jesus answered him: “What I am doing you do not understand now, but you will understand after these things.” 8 Peter said to him: “You will certainly never wash my feet.” Jesus answered him: “Unless I wash you, you have no share with me.” After Jesus was resurrected these sealed ones was told to feed his sheep. The faithful slave. John 21:17 He said to him a third time: “Simon son of John, do you have affection for me?” Peter became grieved that he asked him the third time: “Do you have affection for me?” So he said to him: “Lord, you are aware of all things; you know that I have affection for you.” Jesus said to him: “Feed my little sheep.18 Most truly I say to you, when you were younger, you used to clothe yourself and walk about where you wanted. But when you grow old, you will stretch out your hands and another man will clothe you and carry you where you do not wish.” 19 He said this to indicate by what sort of death he would glorify God. After he said this, he said to him: “Continue following me.” 20 Peter turned around and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following, the one who at the evening meal had also leaned back on his chest and said: “Lord, who is the one betraying you?” 21 So when he caught sight of him, Peter said to Jesus: “Lord, what about this man?” 22 Jesus said to him: “If it is my will for him to remain until I come, of what concern is that to you? You continue following me.” 23 So the saying went out among the brothers that this disciple would not die. However, Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but he said: “If it is my will for him to remain until I come, of what concern is that to you?” The Apostle Peter and Paul was writing letters to the congregations before the Gospels were ever written. By about 70 AD they were executed and Jerusalem was destroyed. As long as the Apostle John was alive they believed Jesus was returning. But about 25 or 30 years later John received Revelation for the congregations. John probably was the Q source for the Gospels because he was an eyewitness to all about 70 AD.
Luke 12:35 Be dressed and ready and have your lamps burning, 36 and you should be like men waiting for their master to return from the marriage, so when he comes and knocks, they may at once open to him. 37 Happy are those slaves whom the master on coming finds watching! Truly I say to you, he will dress himself for service and have them recline at the table and will come alongside and minister to them. 38 And if he comes in the second watch, even if in the third, and finds them ready, happy are they! 39 But know this, if the householder had known at what hour the thief would come, he would not have let his house be broken into. Did the Faithful Slave pass the second and third watch. 1925 and 1975 are they false dates or prophetic prophecy. The 5th And 6th Seal of Revelation. Revelation 6:5 When he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls* of those slaughtered because of the word of God and because of the witness they had given. 10 They shouted with a loud voice, saying: “Until when, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, are you refraining from judging and avenging our blood on those who dwell on the earth?” 11 And a white robe was given to each of them, and they were told to rest a little while longer, until the number was filled of their fellow slaves and their brothers who were about to be killed as they had been. 12 And I saw when he opened the sixth seal, and a great earthquake occurred; and the sun became black as sackcloth made of hair,* and the entire moon became as blood, 13 and the stars of heaven fell to the earth as when a fig tree shaken by a high wind drops its unripe figs. 14 And the heaven departed as a scroll that is being rolled up, and every mountain and every island was removed from its place. 15 Then the kings of the earth, the high officials, the military commanders, the rich, the strong, every slave, and every free person hid in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains. 16 And they keep saying to the mountains and to the rocks: “Fall over us and hide us from the face of the One seated on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb, 17 because the great day of their wrath has come, and who is able to stand?” 1925 was the end of the Jubilee's and they thought Armageddon was coming also in 1975 the end of the 6000 years. They didn't know it was the 5th and 6th seal being opened. They built a mansion. But the 5th seal shows they was to rest a little longer. And they did believe the wrath of Jehovah was coming. Read verse 17 of the sixth seal.
Every time I hear the word "channel" it just makes me think of Spirit mediums. But then that would explain why the JW used Johannas Griebers translation to come up with their NWT.
@@scottgrey2877 can you explain your comment further. I'm unaware of the difference in greek between little g and capital G. But from your comment you do. Thanks
I realy am thankful that you are doing the work. This is verry helpful for me i been so confused all my life, my family and friends shunned me as soon as Anthony m,was dismissed. Thank yall
Thank you so much for this!! My grandma is ALWAYS using this part of their doctrine as to why their religion is still the one and only true religion. I pray for her however I don’t foresee her ever leaving the organization. The saying that goes, “can’t teach an old dog new tricks” applies here unfortunately. My aunt as well, she will not wake up to the religion because she doesn’t want to be shunned by her mother..AGAIN. I am always the “black sheep” of the family in a sense because I woke up and God saved me from that religion and brought me to true Christianity.
Check that the scriptures do talk about it at James 1:27 but I'm skeptical reason being back in the day we only had 1 belief right ? 1 Christian belief ? So I would have to ask any religious leader how many sects were around after Christ died ? Honestly the word religion in the new testament tells me we had just as many beliefs as we do now ?? Can't be maybe someone can explain it ?
This is a GREAT video and you have the best voice for delivering this type of content! I'm so glad you shared the part about the throne of God in the Pleiades Star System - it's a little-known topic. I've been out of the JWs for 6 years - this one of the best overviews on their false teachings masqueraded as new light, I've seen in years.
Your presentation is enlightening. I always called it "The Truth of The Moment, subject to change." If the light keeps gets brighter then it must be pretty dim.
Recently I read Proverbs 4 for the first time. I literally burst into laughter when I got to verse 18. I was already out but well...the light was definitely bright in that moment
I wanted to learn the scriptures so much … I meant a Jehovah witness woman I thought she was so nice when I first learned Jehovah’s name I was so excited but the immaturity and that fellowship is so unbelievable I’m no longer studying with them. May God bless them they have damage so many people lives.
Found your channel and it's great! Keep up the good work. Much of what you expose in the JWs is very similar to SDAs. Hope you takle them sometime. Interestingly enough the founder of the JWs, Mr. Charles Taze Russell, was an SDA before deciding he didn't argee with Ellen White and SDAs move to promoting the divinity of Christ (early founding SDA members held much of the heresies of Arianism but eventually moved towards the more traditional view of Jesus as God and the Trinity, albeit it turned more into Tritheism having 3 distinct beings that are called God and not 3 persons in a single being).

@@Mr.DC3.1914 Except God told us it would throughout the Old Testament. Also this was the plan from the beginning. God wasn’t saying “this is the truth and nothing is coming after it. He was teaching, this is the way now, but there will be a new one. This is not comparable to the truth claims made by the false teachers of the JW org. Ephesians 1:4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love
@@LightoverDarkMinistry the point is IT CHANGED, and the Bible called it CHANGED. and you antiJWs lied that the TRUTH does not change. btw, GOD reveals his truth later at the end - Daniel 12:9 Then he said: “Go, Daniel, because the words are to be kept secret and sealed up until the time of the end.
@@Mr.DC3.1914 God changing something and the WT changing something are not the same. That's the piece you're ignoring. Scripture documents things that changed, but scripture itself doesn't change. The WT, however, changes scripture.
Watchtower's FDS claims that instruction and direction for JW's comes to them from Jehovah via Jesus. How does Jesus communicate Jehovah's instruction and direction to the FDS? Do all the Governing Body members (as FDS) sit around a table waiting for Jesus to communicate with them? Is communication similar to when Harry, from the TV comedy Third Rock from the Sun, begins to shake and quiver when he is receiving an incoming message from the Big Giant Head?
Revelation 22:18-19 “For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book;” “and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book”
I was a 4th gen born in for 40 years now ex cult member. I argued this over and over again with elders. The last one before I left was over the change of the meaning of the word Generation in 1995. The elder told me he was appreciative of the clarification. I said this is not a clarification. A clarification is when you make the same fact more understandable not change the meaning. This was a change of the fact or definition. I got out in 1995. I had long argued that if the cult was right then Armageddon would have to come soon as the generation that was even born in 1914 was about to die off. Then they changed the meaning and I tossed down my watchtower and said I am out. Literally. I threw it on the floor and said I am done. I lived through the 1975 bull shit and watched so many sell homes move to "where the need was great" only to suffer after 75 came and went. My father in law was one, he quit his job at General Motors and moved to northern Michigan and now lives on SS alone barely getting by. He was so condescending to anyone not a dyed in the wool JW, now he is a broken man whos wife is in an Alzheimer home and the state has to pay for her every month because he has no money at all and can barely survive. I argued with him for years, to save some money, put it in the stock market, CDs but save for retirement. I was shut down and told he would not need to worry about his retirement and he would never die.
they did the same with my brother... they convinced him to leave his job as a manager at a bank to pioneer and work in the betel in Brazil, then he got old and now lives on a self-employed job with low wages... he stopped talking to me because I discovered the mistake of the Governing Body and went about my business and caught up with my studies …. the government body is an antichrist
True that I remember it very well also 1975 what's interesting many who are JWs today have a different answer and they were not around in 1975 they're being trained not to talk about it or sweep it under the rug I was a JW from 1976 to 1983 and not a very good one at that but what they have done is wrong only Jehovah can correct them now or later until Christ comes back and changes or corrects those those who were wrong ? until then this is what we have Chaos.
I am old enough to remember the stay alive till 75 bs. I lived in Northern Michigan at the time. So many moved up north because the end was coming in 1975. My inlaws moved up north and father in law quit his job at GM because the end was coming in 75. The kingdom Ministry of 74 said some have quit jobs and sold homes to preach full time. what a good way to spend these last days. LOL He now lives in a shit hole home and tries to live off of SS. About 1100 a month. I tried to talk to him about saving for the future in the 80s and was told I was weak in the truth and was not spiritual. I saved every pay check I bought CDs, Gold and silver, stocks ect. I retired at 60 and make about 4k a month off investments. I take no pleasure in this but god damn it I was right. @@Jollygreen-y6z
All one has to do to disprove new light is examine these scriptures Proverbs 18 the entire chapter James 1:17 2 Corinthians 11:14 Read and meditation on those scripture will not only prove that God's light of truth doesn't change, but in contrast Satan's DOES change himself to resemble an angel of light which is where new light comes from, the father of the lie!
Proverbs 4:18 is a verse from the Book of Proverbs in the Bible. It reads: "The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day." This verse is often interpreted as a metaphor for the spiritual journey of the righteous. Just as the sun rises and grows brighter until the full light of day, the path of the righteous is said to become clearer and more illuminated as they grow in their faith and walk with God. The verse can also be seen as an encouragement to those who strive to live a righteous life. It suggests that even though the path may be difficult at times, it will become increasingly bright and clear as they continue on their journey. Overall, Proverbs 4:18 is a verse that speaks to the importance of faith and perseverance in the life of the righteous.

Deleted and reposted due to a long thread of completely off-topic back and forth. Please, folks -- address the topic of the video and keep the personal fights for another venue. “A new view of truth never can contradict an older view. ‘New light’ never extinguishes ‘older’ light, but adds to it.” - Charles Taze Russell, WT, 2/1881, p. 188 - How many times has the identity of the faithful and discrete slave changed? Three? Four? More? - If organ transplants were "cannibalism" in 1967 (their word for it, not mine) but are a personal choice now, that's a *contradiction*, not an addition. - If blood transfusions were okay in 1944, but the kiss of death in 1945, that's a complete reversal, not an addition. - The cross was celebrated in their "Photo Drama of Creation". Then in 1931 under the direction of Rutherford, it becomes pagan. Again, not an addition, but a complete contradiction. By their founder's own definition, their "new light" is not truth.
I have had this conversation with my elder husband and he said, see the JW's admit to "clearer understanding, at jest they admit it and it can be explained"..... like you would say....NO!!.....NO!!! I'm gonna have to remove myself from the 🐂💩..... it will cost me my whole family tho!
From God to Jesus to the governing body to its members ? No thx HARD PASS . Hebrews 4:16 therefore let us confidently approach the throne of grace to receive mercy and find grace WHENEVER we need help.
Hmm, if you were to read the book of Hebrews, you would find that only Christ is our mediator. I guarantee you it's NOT J.W'S! In the old testament, man had to go through the high priest, and the high priest talked to God in the Holiest of holys room. But now that Christ has died on the cross, he is our mediator between us and God.
How can someone disprove New light unless he is God? (Acts 1:7) He said to them: “It does not belong to you to know the times or seasons that the Father has placed in his own jurisdiction. It was not that Jesus' disciples will never know. It meant that God would reveal things as and when appropriate. 'Food at the proper time' - Matthew 42:45.
It’s clearly The final part of the last days of the final part of the final part just before the last days. Hope I could clear that up. (Actual clarification from Stephen Lett)

Jesus is NOT God himself. Hosea 11:9 states "For I am God and not man,The Holy One in your midst;" GOD is NOT MAN/HUMAN. And GOD does not change, so are you thinking GOD is a liar and changed?
Was Jesus a false prophet? He--and all the writers of the New Testament -- taught that the 'son of man', the parousia, and the end, were coming in "this generation ". Furthermore, Jesus told the high priest, you shall see the son of man coming in his glory.
The coming of God is an Old Testament way of saying, God is coming in judgement. Jesus is not talking about his physical return, but him acting on the people who rejected their messiah and oppressing his church. God did come in judgement against them in 70AD when Jerusalem was destroyed.
im no a jehovas or christian. but i know why they change "the"truth" . they always seek the "truth" by examine the bible and pieces of it and becouse of it, they have no true belif becouse they seek the truth.
Do you consider the Mosaic Law and the priesthood as TRUTHs? In your false reasonings, they are NOT truths as those btw have CHANGED. so you are WRONG AGAIN. HEB 7:12 For since the priesthood is being changed, it becomes necessary to change the Law as well
Mary had a little lamb, She called it Del the sheep When she realised Del just bleated nonsensical piffle She had Del put down. It's a good thing Nursery Rhymes are not true Del. Very much like the Prophecies from the Faithful and Discreet Slave re 1975 In 1975, I started High School. Contrary to the FDS, I finished High School and now I'm ready to retire soon. It's funny the JW Armageddon didn't effect my life at all. 1975. The Faithful and Discreet Slave didn't see that coming.
LOL. Oh ya! After 1500 years, God decided just to change things out of the blue. God was like, "This isn't working, let's change it." It's not that God instituted the Mosaic law as a picture and shadow of Christ who was to come (Col 1:17; Heb 10:1), no that can't be it. It couldn't be that when Christ came he fulfilled the fulfilled the Mosaic covenant (Mat 5:17), and thus instituted a new one (Luke 22:20). No, we can't be living under a new covenant. It couldn't be that God had a set time for the Mosaic law, that it would only last until John (Luke 16:16), no that can't be right. During the 1500 years of the Mosaic covenant, no one had the right to change the Law. Likewise, in the New Covenant, God is not changing his mind on things as he goes along. JW's don't get progressive revelation, they get revolutionary teaching. The new "light" they receive doesn't build upon the previous but contradicts what they previously taught.

I stand with my Brothers and Sisters in maintaining that the light get's brighter, and that Jehovah reveals knowledge at the appropriate times and on a 'need-to-know' basis. Sometimes what is true and right DOES change in the Bible. Consider meat. At first, after the flood, God told Noah and his family: "EVERY moving animal that is alive may serve as food for you." (Genesis 9:3) But then come the Law, suddenly there are clean and unclean animals. In the new covenant, it's back to being able to eat what you like! (Caveat against eating the blood still stands, though)
Truth didn't change. A new covenant (contract) was instituted which stipulated certain things. The Mosaic covenant (contract) was fulfilled by Christ and he instituted a new covenant (contract). That covenant (contract) has not been completed, so the terms of that contract do not change. So to claim that "new light" changes truth is false. You were either not following the covenant (contract) stipulations before or you aren't following them now. God didn't add a new verse to the Bible and say, "Ok, I know the contract has already been instated but I wan't to add something... as of the 21st century, beards on men are no longer acceptable." No. That's your organization changing its mind, not God.
Matt, serious questions. Proverbs 4:18, do you believe the Witnesses org using that as evidence of the light getting brighter is a the correct interpretation based on the context?

One of the scriptures Proverbs 4:18 is cross-referenced to is 1 Corinthians 13:12, which reads in part: "For now we see in hazy outline by means of a metal mirror, ...At present I know partially, but then I will know accurately,..." What Paul was saying was that the early Christians’ understanding of certain matters was limited, because It was not yet God’s time to reveal certain things. Ergo, when he does, adjustments might need to be made. So the answer to your question is yes. Certain scriptures can have more than one application.
@@mattgardiner614 Matt, couple things that make what you said so incredibly dangerous. 1. A cross reference is when the Bible quotes and old passage or alludes to it in topic. There is absolutely no way that is happening here. Claiming this is a cross reference is wrong. 2. Pulling new light out of 1 cor 13:12 is like pulling new light out of proverbs 4:18. Also notice how the text says “I” I will know all, not us, or the church, I, when face to face with God. Meaning, I don’t fully understand God’s plan or action, but when I’m his presence he’ll understand fully. This is a personal hope, and has nothing to do with interpretation or prophecy or progressive revelation. 3. If you follow the principle of “verses can have multiple meaning” this is the excused used in all cults. You are taking a basic principle of literary interpretation and committing eisegesis. It’s one thing to say “Jesus is the door” means he’s the only way in. Means it’s only through him, etc. but you can’t say “Jesus says he’s the door, which means any spiritual leader is the gate, therefor our supreme leader is the gate keeper as well.” You do not get to slap another meaning on a text to make it fit into your belief system. 4. The Bible is the ultimate interpreter. It’s meant to be read as a book. Think about this, Those taking the lead, defend the change by saying the light gets brighter, and use proverbs to justify their position, even though the text doesn’t say that, and say their are able to pull another meaning, because they have accurate knowledge, and then use 1 Cor 13:12 to justify it, even though the text doesn’t say that, and say their are able to pull another meaning, because they have accurate knowledge. So it doesn’t matter what the Bible says, they are telling you what it says, adding meaning that doesn’t exist. 5. You know full well proverbs 4:18 doesn’t teach the truth gets brighter. The only defense is, “well it can have multiple meanings”. Ok, if it didn’t have multiple applications, just a simple reading, what is the text saying?
Might have to pass this one over to Mom. It kinda blew her mind that the "Generation that would never pass away" has... well, passed away.
If inconsistencies or predictions made the Organization false, Jehovah by this point in time would no longer have a visible organization, with more than 8 million faithful servants, but what evil apostates don't understand is that even starting back from about 51 C.E., some in Thessalonica were wrongly predicting that “the presence” of the Lord Jesus was imminent. (2 Thess. 2:1, 2) By about 55 C.E., some in Corinth had rejected the clear Christian teaching regarding the resurrection of the dead. (1 Cor. 15:12) About 65 C.E., others said that the resurrection had already taken place, it being of a symbolic kind that living Christians experience.-2 Tim. 2:16-18. There have always been unsatisfied apostates, complaining about the different "inconsistencies", and "erroneous dates and times" that would eventually end up getting clarified anyway, and along the way, since the days of Cain, apostates have been bailing out from the road that leads to everlasting life, and until now Jehovah's Organization is still existing,,, and will continue to exist WITH US,,,, OR WITHOUT US, whether we like it or not. Jehovah’s dealings with his servants in the past have shown that understanding of his purposes often comes gradually. Does it mean that because past servants did not always come up with the correct understanding, or correct prediction made them fake or false? NO, even Abraham did not know just how God’s promise regarding the “seed” would work out. Daniel did not understand the final outcome of his prophecies. John the Baptizer, who introduced the Messiah, later asked to be enlightened as to whether another was coming. Jesus himself did not know the day and hour of the “great tribulation.” The apostles had to learn progressively that the kingdom is heavenly and that Gentiles, too, may inherit it. It was only upon receiving the book of Revelation that the early Christians learned that Christ’s reign would be 1,000 years long and that he would have 144,000 joint heirs. So is it wise to leave Jehovah's Organization to now be part of nothing, as in becoming part of the (Ex JW Community) with no possibility of living for eternity? hands down NO
Have you asked her about this prophecy?
About who the originator of it was?
Or about what deut 18:20-22 says about false prophets?
Even Peter didn't understand when the Kingdom was coming. Jesus does chose who rules with him in his Kingdom.
John 13:6 Then he came to Simon Peter. He said to him: “Lord, are you washing my feet?” 7 Jesus answered him: “What I am doing you do not understand now, but you will understand after these things.” 8 Peter said to him: “You will certainly never wash my feet.” Jesus answered him: “Unless I wash you, you have no share with me.”
After Jesus was resurrected these sealed ones was told to feed his sheep. The faithful slave.
John 21:17 He said to him a third time: “Simon son of John, do you have affection for me?” Peter became grieved that he asked him the third time: “Do you have affection for me?” So he said to him: “Lord, you are aware of all things; you know that I have affection for you.” Jesus said to him: “Feed my little sheep.18 Most truly I say to you, when you were younger, you used to clothe yourself and walk about where you wanted. But when you grow old, you will stretch out your hands and another man will clothe you and carry you where you do not wish.” 19 He said this to indicate by what sort of death he would glorify God. After he said this, he said to him: “Continue following me.”
20 Peter turned around and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following, the one who at the evening meal had also leaned back on his chest and said: “Lord, who is the one betraying you?” 21 So when he caught sight of him, Peter said to Jesus: “Lord, what about this man?” 22 Jesus said to him: “If it is my will for him to remain until I come, of what concern is that to you? You continue following me.” 23 So the saying went out among the brothers that this disciple would not die. However, Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but he said: “If it is my will for him to remain until I come, of what concern is that to you?”
The Apostle Peter and Paul was writing letters to the congregations before the Gospels were ever written. By about 70 AD they were executed and Jerusalem was destroyed. As long as the Apostle John was alive they believed Jesus was returning. But about 25 or 30 years later John received Revelation for the congregations. John probably was the Q source for the Gospels because he was an eyewitness to all about 70 AD.
Luke 12:35 Be dressed and ready and have your lamps burning, 36 and you should be like men waiting for their master to return from the marriage, so when he comes and knocks, they may at once open to him. 37 Happy are those slaves whom the master on coming finds watching! Truly I say to you, he will dress himself for service and have them recline at the table and will come alongside and minister to them. 38 And if he comes in the second watch, even if in the third, and finds them ready, happy are they! 39 But know this, if the householder had known at what hour the thief would come, he would not have let his house be broken into.
Did the Faithful Slave pass the second and third watch.
1925 and 1975 are they false dates or prophetic prophecy. The 5th And 6th Seal of Revelation.
Revelation 6:5
When he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls* of those slaughtered because of the word of God and because of the witness they had given. 10 They shouted with a loud voice, saying: “Until when, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, are you refraining from judging and avenging our blood on those who dwell on the earth?” 11 And a white robe was given to each of them, and they were told to rest a little while longer, until the number was filled of their fellow slaves and their brothers who were about to be killed as they had been.
12 And I saw when he opened the sixth seal, and a great earthquake occurred; and the sun became black as sackcloth made of hair,* and the entire moon became as blood, 13 and the stars of heaven fell to the earth as when a fig tree shaken by a high wind drops its unripe figs. 14 And the heaven departed as a scroll that is being rolled up, and every mountain and every island was removed from its place. 15 Then the kings of the earth, the high officials, the military commanders, the rich, the strong, every slave, and every free person hid in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains. 16 And they keep saying to the mountains and to the rocks: “Fall over us and hide us from the face of the One seated on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb, 17 because the great day of their wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”
1925 was the end of the Jubilee's and they thought Armageddon was coming also in 1975 the end of the 6000 years. They didn't know it was the 5th and 6th seal being opened. They built a mansion. But the 5th seal shows they was to rest a little longer. And they did believe the wrath of Jehovah was coming. Read verse 17 of the sixth seal.
Every time I hear the word "channel" it just makes me think of Spirit mediums.
But then that would explain why the JW used Johannas Griebers translation to come up with their NWT.
Amen!!

I realy am thankful that you are doing the work. This is verry helpful for me i been so confused all my life, my family and friends shunned me as soon as Anthony m,was dismissed. Thank yall
Thanks for this. If you ever need anything, just contact me
Thank you so much for this!! My grandma is ALWAYS using this part of their doctrine as to why their religion is still the one and only true religion. I pray for her however I don’t foresee her ever leaving the organization. The saying that goes, “can’t teach an old dog new tricks” applies here unfortunately. My aunt as well, she will not wake up to the religion because she doesn’t want to be shunned by her mother..AGAIN. I am always the “black sheep” of the family in a sense because I woke up and God saved me from that religion and brought me to true Christianity.
Check that the scriptures do talk about it at James 1:27 but I'm skeptical reason being back in the day we only had 1 belief right ? 1 Christian belief ? So I would have to ask any religious leader how many sects were around after Christ died ? Honestly the word religion in the new testament tells me we had just as many beliefs as we do now ?? Can't be maybe someone can explain it ?
This is a GREAT video and you have the best voice for delivering this type of content! I'm so glad you shared the part about the throne of God in the Pleiades Star System - it's a little-known topic. I've been out of the JWs for 6 years - this one of the best overviews on their false teachings masqueraded as new light, I've seen in years.
Your presentation is enlightening. I always called it "The Truth of The
Moment, subject to change." If the light keeps gets brighter then it must be pretty dim.
Recently I read Proverbs 4 for the first time. I literally burst into laughter when I got to verse 18. I was already out but well...the light was definitely bright in that moment
I wanted to learn the scriptures so much … I meant a Jehovah witness woman I thought she was so nice when I first learned Jehovah’s name I was so excited but the immaturity and that fellowship is so unbelievable I’m no longer studying with them. May God bless them they have damage so many people lives.
Found your channel and it's great! Keep up the good work. Much of what you expose in the JWs is very similar to SDAs. Hope you takle them sometime. Interestingly enough the founder of the JWs, Mr. Charles Taze Russell, was an SDA before deciding he didn't argee with Ellen White and SDAs move to promoting the divinity of Christ (early founding SDA members held much of the heresies of Arianism but eventually moved towards the more traditional view of Jesus as God and the Trinity, albeit it turned more into Tritheism having 3 distinct beings that are called God and not 3 persons in a single being).
TRUTH = Light
Error = darkness
Darkness is the ABSENCE of light therefore it can NEVER get brighter.
Do you consider the Mosaic Law and the priesthood as TRUTHs? In your false reasonings, they are NOT truths as those btw have CHANGED. so you are WRONG AGAIN. HEB 7:12 For since the priesthood is being changed, it becomes necessary to change the Law as well

Fantastic content and so well taught good sir.

Makes me so sad. I know someone, a former JW who’s now a Christian, and is constantly sent watch tower articles and books by their parents. Tried to send one video to them, and was warned never to do so again. So sad what the leaders have done to these people.

@@Mr.DC3.1914 Except God told us it would throughout the Old Testament. Also this was the plan from the beginning. God wasn’t saying “this is the truth and nothing is coming after it. He was teaching, this is the way now, but there will be a new one. This is not comparable to the truth claims made by the false teachers of the JW org.
Ephesians 1:4
just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love
@@LightoverDarkMinistry the point is IT CHANGED, and the Bible called it CHANGED. and you antiJWs lied that the TRUTH does not change. btw, GOD reveals his truth later at the end - Daniel 12:9
Then he said: “Go, Daniel, because the words are to be kept secret and sealed up until the time of the end.
@@Mr.DC3.1914 God changing something and the WT changing something are not the same. That's the piece you're ignoring. Scripture documents things that changed, but scripture itself doesn't change. The WT, however, changes scripture.
$ CULT $
The holy spirit never misleads a surrendered heart 😊
Watchtower's FDS claims that instruction and direction for JW's comes to them from Jehovah via Jesus. How does Jesus communicate Jehovah's instruction and direction to the FDS?
Do all the Governing Body members (as FDS) sit around a table waiting for Jesus to communicate with them? Is communication similar to when Harry, from the TV comedy Third Rock from the Sun, begins to shake and quiver when he is receiving an incoming message from the Big Giant Head?
Revelation 22:18-19
“For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book;”
“and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book”
I was a 4th gen born in for 40 years now ex cult member. I argued this over and over again with elders. The last one before I left was over the change of the meaning of the word Generation in 1995. The elder told me he was appreciative of the clarification. I said this is not a clarification. A clarification is when you make the same fact more understandable not change the meaning. This was a change of the fact or definition. I got out in 1995. I had long argued that if the cult was right then Armageddon would have to come soon as the generation that was even born in 1914 was about to die off. Then they changed the meaning and I tossed down my watchtower and said I am out. Literally. I threw it on the floor and said I am done. I lived through the 1975 bull shit and watched so many sell homes move to "where the need was great" only to suffer after 75 came and went.
My father in law was one, he quit his job at General Motors and moved to northern Michigan and now lives on SS alone barely getting by. He was so condescending to anyone not a dyed in the wool JW, now he is a broken man whos wife is in an Alzheimer home and the state has to pay for her every month because he has no money at all and can barely survive. I argued with him for years, to save some money, put it in the stock market, CDs but save for retirement.
I was shut down and told he would not need to worry about his retirement and he would never die.
they did the same with my brother... they convinced him to leave his job as a manager at a bank to pioneer and work in the betel in Brazil, then he got old and now lives on a self-employed job with low wages... he stopped talking to me because I discovered the mistake of the Governing Body and went about my business and caught up with my studies …. the government body is an antichrist
True that I remember it very well also 1975 what's interesting many who are JWs today have a different answer and they were not around in 1975 they're being trained not to talk about it or sweep it under the rug I was a JW from 1976 to 1983 and not a very good one at that but what they have done is wrong only Jehovah can correct them now or later until Christ comes back and changes or corrects those those who were wrong ? until then this is what we have Chaos.
I am old enough to remember the stay alive till 75 bs. I lived in Northern Michigan at the time. So many moved up north because the end was coming in 1975. My inlaws moved up north and father in law quit his job at GM because the end was coming in 75. The kingdom Ministry of 74 said some have quit jobs and sold homes to preach full time. what a good way to spend these last days. LOL He now lives in a shit hole home and tries to live off of SS. About 1100 a month. I tried to talk to him about saving for the future in the 80s and was told I was weak in the truth and was not spiritual. I saved every pay check I bought CDs, Gold and silver, stocks ect. I retired at 60 and make about 4k a month off investments. I take no pleasure in this but god damn it I was right. @@Jollygreen-y6z

All one has to do to disprove new light is examine these scriptures
Proverbs 18 the entire chapter
James 1:17
2 Corinthians 11:14
Read and meditation on those scripture will not only prove that God's light of truth doesn't change, but in contrast Satan's DOES change himself to resemble an angel of light which is where new light comes from, the father of the lie!
Proverbs 4:18 is a verse from the Book of Proverbs in the Bible. It reads:
"The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day."
This verse is often interpreted as a metaphor for the spiritual journey of the righteous. Just as the sun rises and grows brighter until the full light of day, the path of the righteous is said to become clearer and more illuminated as they grow in their faith and walk with God.
The verse can also be seen as an encouragement to those who strive to live a righteous life. It suggests that even though the path may be difficult at times, it will become increasingly bright and clear as they continue on their journey.
Overall, Proverbs 4:18 is a verse that speaks to the importance of faith and perseverance in the life of the righteous.

“A new view of truth never can contradict an older view. ‘New light’ never extinguishes ‘older’ light, but adds to it.” - Charles Taze Russell, WT, 2/1881, p. 188

- If organ transplants were "cannibalism" in 1967 (their word for it, not mine) but are a personal choice now, that's a *contradiction*, not an addition.
- If blood transfusions were okay in 1944, but the kiss of death in 1945, that's a complete reversal, not an addition.
- The cross was celebrated in their "Photo Drama of Creation". Then in 1931 under the direction of Rutherford, it becomes pagan. Again, not an addition, but a complete contradiction.
By their founder's own definition, their "new light" is not truth.

From God to Jesus to the governing body to its members ? No thx HARD PASS . Hebrews 4:16 therefore let us confidently approach the throne of grace to receive mercy and find grace WHENEVER we need help.
Hmm, if you were to read the book of Hebrews, you would find that only Christ is our mediator. I guarantee you it's NOT J.W'S! In the old testament, man had to go through the high priest, and the high priest talked to God in the Holiest of holys room. But now that Christ has died on the cross, he is our mediator between us and God.

How can someone disprove New light unless he is God?
(Acts 1:7) He said to them: “It does not belong to you to know the times or seasons that the Father has placed in his own jurisdiction.
It was not that Jesus' disciples will never know. It meant that God would reveal things as and when appropriate.
'Food at the proper time' - Matthew 42:45.
There is no new light.
The governing body is giving rotten food
It’s clearly The final part of the last days of the final part of the final part just before the last days. Hope I could clear that up. (Actual clarification from Stephen Lett)

John the Baptizer, who introduced the Messiah, later asked to be enlightened as to whether another was coming. Jesus himself did not know the day and hour of the “great tribulation.” The apostles had to learn progressively that the kingdom is heavenly and that Gentiles, too, may inherit it. It was only upon receiving the book of Revelation that the early Christians learned that Christ’s reign would be 1,000 years long and that he would have 144,000 joint heirs. So is it wise to leave Jehovah's Organization to now be part of nothing, as in becoming part of the (Ex JW Community) with no possibility of living for eternity? hands down NO
Jesus is NOT God himself. Hosea 11:9 states "For I am God and not man,The Holy One in your midst;" GOD is NOT MAN/HUMAN. And GOD does not change, so are you thinking GOD is a liar and changed?
"THE CRUCIFIX FISH TESTIFIES" Look it up. See God's perpetual memorial to the crucifixion and resurrection.
@@brisadelcastillo2840 plain and simple - Hosea 11:9 states "For I am God and not man,The Holy One in your midst;" GOD is NOT MAN/HUMAN.
Was Jesus a false prophet? He--and all the writers of the New Testament -- taught that the 'son of man', the parousia, and the end, were coming in "this generation ".
Furthermore, Jesus told the high priest, you shall see the son of man coming in his glory.
The coming of God is an Old Testament way of saying, God is coming in judgement. Jesus is not talking about his physical return, but him acting on the people who rejected their messiah and oppressing his church. God did come in judgement against them in 70AD when Jerusalem was destroyed.
im no a jehovas or christian. but i know why they change "the"truth" . they always seek the "truth" by examine the bible and pieces of it and becouse of it, they have no true belif becouse they seek the truth.
Why do you hate them so much? Instead you should try to evangelize them 😊with kind words.
Don’t hate them, I love them, otherwise I wouldn’t spend all my time creating this content.
@@LightoverDarkMinistry iam sorry, I must misunderstood you. Keep up the good work 👍. Stay constantly praying 🙏
Jesus doesn't tell us to evangelize anyone with kind words, He commands us to share the truth of the Gospel
@@busybody1474 Are we supposed to be imitators of Jesus? 👉🤝👈
Do you consider the Mosaic Law and the priesthood as TRUTHs? In your false reasonings, they are NOT truths as those btw have CHANGED. so you are WRONG AGAIN. HEB 7:12 For since the priesthood is being changed, it becomes necessary to change the Law as well
Mary had a little lamb,
She called it Del the sheep
When she realised Del just bleated nonsensical piffle
She had Del put down.
It's a good thing Nursery Rhymes are not true Del.
Very much like the Prophecies from the Faithful and Discreet Slave re 1975
In 1975, I started High School. Contrary to the FDS, I finished High School and now I'm ready to retire soon.
It's funny the JW Armageddon didn't effect my life at all.
1975. The Faithful and Discreet Slave didn't see that coming.
LOL. Oh ya! After 1500 years, God decided just to change things out of the blue. God was like, "This isn't working, let's change it."
It's not that God instituted the Mosaic law as a picture and shadow of Christ who was to come (Col 1:17; Heb 10:1), no that can't be it.
It couldn't be that when Christ came he fulfilled the fulfilled the Mosaic covenant (Mat 5:17), and thus instituted a new one (Luke 22:20). No, we can't be living under a new covenant.
It couldn't be that God had a set time for the Mosaic law, that it would only last until John (Luke 16:16), no that can't be right.
During the 1500 years of the Mosaic covenant, no one had the right to change the Law.
Likewise, in the New Covenant, God is not changing his mind on things as he goes along.
JW's don't get progressive revelation, they get revolutionary teaching. The new "light" they receive doesn't build upon the previous but contradicts what they previously taught.
@@kevinfromcanada4379 the point is IT CHANGED, and the Bible called it CHANGED. and you antiJWs lied that the TRUTH does not change. btw, GOD reveals his truth later at the end - Daniel 12:9
Then he said: “Go, Daniel, because the words are to be kept secret and sealed up until the time of the end.

@@Mr.DC3.1914 Did any of the law change while the Mosaic covenant was in effect?
I stand with my Brothers and Sisters in maintaining that the light get's brighter, and that Jehovah reveals knowledge at the appropriate times and on a 'need-to-know' basis. Sometimes what is true and right DOES change in the Bible. Consider meat. At first, after the flood, God told Noah and his family: "EVERY moving animal that is alive may serve as food for you." (Genesis 9:3) But then come the Law, suddenly there are clean and unclean animals. In the new covenant, it's back to being able to eat what you like! (Caveat against eating the blood still stands, though)
Truth didn't change. A new covenant (contract) was instituted which stipulated certain things. The Mosaic covenant (contract) was fulfilled by Christ and he instituted a new covenant (contract). That covenant (contract) has not been completed, so the terms of that contract do not change.
So to claim that "new light" changes truth is false. You were either not following the covenant (contract) stipulations before or you aren't following them now.
God didn't add a new verse to the Bible and say, "Ok, I know the contract has already been instated but I wan't to add something... as of the 21st century, beards on men are no longer acceptable." No. That's your organization changing its mind, not God.
Matt, serious questions. Proverbs 4:18,
do you believe the Witnesses org using that as evidence of the light getting brighter is a the correct interpretation based on the context?
@@LightoverDarkMinistry Hello. One of the scriptures Proverbs 4:18 is cross-referenced to is 1 Corinthians 13:12, which reads in part: "For now we see in hazy outline by means of a metal mirror, ...At present I know partially, but then I will know accurately,..." What Paul was saying was that the early Christians’ understanding of certain matters was limited, because It was not yet God’s time to reveal certain things. Ergo, when he does, adjustments might need to be made. So the answer to your question is yes. Certain scriptures can have more than one application.
@@mattgardiner614 Matt, couple things that make what you said so incredibly dangerous.
1. A cross reference is when the Bible quotes and old passage or alludes to it in topic. There is absolutely no way that is happening here. Claiming this is a cross reference is wrong.
2. Pulling new light out of 1 cor 13:12 is like pulling new light out of proverbs 4:18. Also notice how the text says “I” I will know all, not us, or the church, I, when face to face with God. Meaning, I don’t fully understand God’s plan or action, but when I’m his presence he’ll understand fully. This is a personal hope, and has nothing to do with interpretation or prophecy or progressive revelation.
3. If you follow the principle of “verses can have multiple meaning” this is the excused used in all cults. You are taking a basic principle of literary interpretation and committing eisegesis. It’s one thing to say “Jesus is the door” means he’s the only way in. Means it’s only through him, etc. but you can’t say “Jesus says he’s the door, which means any spiritual leader is the gate, therefor our supreme leader is the gate keeper as well.”
You do not get to slap another meaning on a text to make it fit into your belief system.
4. The Bible is the ultimate interpreter. It’s meant to be read as a book. Think about this, Those taking the lead, defend the change by saying the light gets brighter, and use proverbs to justify their position, even though the text doesn’t say that, and say their are able to pull another meaning, because they have accurate knowledge, and then use 1 Cor 13:12 to justify it, even though the text doesn’t say that, and say their are able to pull another meaning, because they have accurate knowledge. So it doesn’t matter what the Bible says, they are telling you what it says, adding meaning that doesn’t exist.
5. You know full well proverbs 4:18 doesn’t teach the truth gets brighter. The only defense is, “well it can have multiple meanings”. Ok, if it didn’t have multiple applications, just a simple reading, what is the text saying?
What about the “overlapping generation” teaching and its contradictions with the previous teaching?
