Abandoned

The JW have so many phrases that are not found in the bible but that they spout as though they were deathly important. Here's one:

I always hated that saying.

Can you think of any?

Actually "present truth" is found in a non-jw Bible and was used during Russell's time.

"Jehovah" is not in the New Testament of any other English Bibles.

Leolaia

I think it is often misused in a temporal (i.e. the truth that exists at this present time) sense, rather than the spatial sense that occurs in the actual text. So "current truth", for instance, has been used as a term: "It is foolish not to keep up to date with current truth, and dangerous to push ahead of it" (Watchtower, 7/1/1995, p. 6).

Here are some terms that don't occur in scripture:

Theocratic

Materialized (body)

Organization

Circuit Overseer

Judicial Committee

Channel (of Commnication)

Stream of time

Advertise

Baptismal candidate

Governing Body

Here is one dating back to Rutherford's time. " Please stop your dog from cocking it's leg up on my gramaphone."
