Hi Donna,
What a bunch of hogwash, if you don't mind me saying!!!
Not at all, you're entitled to your opinion.
Who says the parable is a prophecy?
Who says it's not? It's a matter of interpretation.
It is
about a master who hires workers when he chooses and
pays them what he chooses. He is compassionate, and knows that those hired at the end of the day
have families to feed as well. It has NOTHING to do with the Watchtower
Society.
So you say. But what makes you a prophetess all of a sudden to decide what the Bible means?
Talk about
personal interpretations!!!
Yeah, like the prophetess above.
Only00 0the Society could see two classes in that!!!
The fact is, the Bible prophesies a special "temple" organization which would be specifically recognized during the last days and Jehovah's Witnesses are that organization. Many prophetic-parables, that look like just parables to some, are really prophecies about the Messiah's activities during his second coming and what would happen within the temple organization.
Persons not realizing or accepting the modern fulfillment of "Jehovah's organization" or "spiritual Israel" as the Witnesses will not see many prophesies fulfilled. Instead, they will go along thinking all those parables are there for the moral sttement only, not realizing they are secretly prophetic.
But it's okay, Jesus used parables so that those on the outside would be confused, but those on the inside would know the secret meaning. So everything is as it should be.
I don't blame you for being skeptical though, a bit far out, isn't it?
