    The Librarian reacted to James Thomas Rook Jr. in The Holy Spirit   
    Cos:
    Even though we don't know what those names are, Jehovah has even named the stars of the heavens, and knows them all by a personalized, (which really means individual),  name  ....he did NOT give personalized individual  names to  the radiations they emit ...gamma radiation,  x-rays, ultra violet, radio waves, infrared, etc. .... for electricity, Reddy Kilowatt comes to mind as a personalized name that power companies gave to Electricity as an advertising ploy.    before they realized you do not have to advertise electricity.
    PEOPLE are silly that way, but we enjoy being amused.
    I am going to keep this short, as today I have to work outside all day installing bundles of electrical wiring for my yard underground wiring system , and I don't want to get a sunburn from Fred ultraviolet light, or have a heat stroke from Wanda infrared light, and is rumored that If I am not careful, Reddy Kilowatt will try to kill me.
    I am silly THAT way.
    Forgive me ... it's silly to name FORCES with personal names as I have just done ( and the electrical companies did)...... that is why Jehovah does not do it.
    That is why the HOLY SPIRIT does NOT have a personal name  , it,  like a star, is a FORCE that emanates from God to affect things at the other end ... to accomplish his will at his direction.
    It is a DIRECTED force, not light sunlight that illuminates the solar system, and beyond.
    So ...ponder this ... why do trillions upon trillions of stars have a personalzed name ...  and the HOLY SPIRIT does not ... only descriptions of WHAT IT DOES!
    Answer: (For those in Rio Linda...) IT'S A FORCE.
    Of course Casper the friendly farce may condemn me to hell for saying so ... but that would be...... "unfriendly"
    MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU, COS.

    The Librarian reacted to Alzasior Lutor in La "génération qui se chevauche"   
    Ceci m' a été envoyé dans un email par un frère d'Allemagne. Quelqu'un a-t-il essayé de saisir des dates différentes pour voir les résultats? Est-ce une représentation juste de ce que David Splane a expliqué? 
    Il est maintenant littéralement possible d'expliquer la longueur potentielle de la "génération qui se chevauche" avec une formule comme la suivante où X' et X" représentent deux groupes différents (chevauchement) de personnes ointes.
    Génération(X′+X″) <= 1914+λ[A′]-α[A′]+λ[A″]-α[A″]-x

    Cette formule est applicable lorsque A' et A" sont des symboles se référant à des personnes ointes qualifiées pour être dans le groupe un et deux, respectivement. λ[A′] (lambda de A′) se réfère à la durée de vie de la personne dans le premier groupe, et  α[A′] (alpha of A′) se réfère à l'âge auquel A' aurait été oint. Une personne qui se qualifie pour l'inclusion dans le deuxième groupe (A"), doit non seulement naître, mais doit déjà être ointe, dans l'année ou avant la mort d' A'. Il faut aussi tenir compte des deux facteurs limitatifs suivants: premièrement, la durée maximale d'une durée de vie (λ) est habituellement comprise entre 99 et 119 ans. Deuxièmement, l'âge minimum auquel on peut être considéré comme oint (α), se situe dans une fourchette de 10 à 20 ans. Et, enfin, nous devons soustraire x, le nombre d'années complètes que la durée de vie d' A' a chevauché avec celle d' A". Si A" est né la même année que A', ce x = 0.

    The Librarian got a reaction from Queen Esther in Matthew 24:34 "this generation"   
    Francais
    David Splane explains the overlapping generation again via JW Broadcasting September 2015 
    The cutoff date for this generation has now moved to 1992 (was once 1935), the year that Fred Franz died. Therefore now is not the time to become weary - the end is right around the corner.
    sources below:
    We understand that in mentioning “this generation,” Jesus was referring to two groups of anointed Christians. The first group was on hand in 1914, and they readily discerned the sign of Christ’s presence in that year. Those who made up this group were not merely alive in 1914, but they were spirit-anointed as sons of God in or before that year.
    w14 1/15 p. 31 par. 15
    16 The second group included in “this generation” are anointed contemporaries of the first group. They were not simply alive during the lifetime of those in the first group, but they were anointed with holy spirit during the time that those of the first group were still on earth. Thus, not every anointed person today is included in “this generation” of whom Jesus spoke. Today, those in this second group are themselves advancing in years.
    w14 1/15 p. 31 par. 16
    See previous explanations on the page for Matthew 24.  ( @JW Insider)
    Here is a more detailed chart

    Overlapping Generation Mathematical Formula
    This was sent to me in an email by a brother from Germany. Has anyone tried plugging in different dates to see the results? Is it a fair representation of what David Splane explained? 
    It is now literally possible to explain the potential length of the “overlapping generation” with a formula like the following one where X? and X? represent two different (overlapping) groups of anointed persons.
    Generation (X?+X?) <= 1914+?[A?]-?[A?]+?[A?]-?[A?]-x
    This formula is applicable where A? and A? are symbols referring to anointed persons qualified to be in group one and two, respectively. ?[A?] (lambda of A?) refers to the lifespan of the person in the first group, and ?[A?] (alpha of A?) refers to the age at which A? is said to have been anointed. A person qualifying for inclusion in the second group (A?), must not only be born, but must already be anointed, in or before the year A? dies. We must also consider the following two limiting factors: First, the maximum length of a lifespan (?) usually put in a range from 99 to 119 years. Second, the minimum age at which one may be considered to be anointed (?), put in a range from 10 to 20 years. And, finally, we must subtract x, the number of full years that the lifespan of A? overlapped with A?. If A? happened to be born in the same year that A? died, then this x=0.

    If you've seen any of the lengthy topics lately that deal with the "generation" and related issues, you'll notice that I'm probably not the right person to ask. Also, I don't want to turn this particular type of post into a doctrinal discussion that no one bargained for, based on the topic name. However, I do think it's a good question, so I'll attach some notes to one of those other recent discussions.

    In order NOT to be labeled a liar and a slanderer, Alessandro Corona ... and justifiably so ... you are going to have to PROVE EVERY ASPECT of those statements you just made. 
    YOU PERSONALLY ... not just waving your hand at a PDF file link.
    I assume you did not just pull them out of your imagination.
    Please supply enough detailed overview and references that your seemingly OUTRAGEOUS claims may be INDEPENDENTLY checked by the average, reasonable person.
    If you do not ... and it WILL take some work .... your credibility is ZERO.
    ...by the way, I did read about 55 pages of that PDF, and concluded that it is the rantings of a man quite mad.

    “A scorching wind from the barren hills of the desert I saw the land, and look! it was empty and desolate.
    I looked at the heavens, and their light was no more. It was because of Jehovah, Because of his burning anger.
    For this is what Jehovah says: 
    "The whole land will become desolate, But I will not carry out a complete extermination.

The Bible assures us that Jehovah* did not create the earth “simply for nothing.” Rather, he formed it “to be inhabited.” (Isaiah 45:18) Instead of allowing the earth to be totally despoiled by humans, God will “bring to ruin those ruining the earth.”—Revelation 11:18.
