    Everything in Revelation.

    It is their favorite book. I guess it gives them their best excuses for scaring little kids.

    Any point they ever make, is backed up by Revelation, just to prove to their quaking audiences that jehober hates everybody but them.

    As a side note, Revelation was not included in the official cannon without a fight. Even then it was feared that it could be interpreted in strange ways.

    I hate that freakin book, myself. It serves no good purpose at all.

    On second thought, now that I have had time to ponder it, I think that "scarlet beast" was hillary clinton. LOL

    Actually it didn't annoy me then, but it does now:

    Matthew 24:14. Oh come on, you all know what it says !!!

    ANYHOW, the WT Society uses that scripture as if it were a command incumbent on every single person who reads it. Either you preach (and do it their way), or Jehovah's gonna getcha!!

    But what about the verse where Paul wrote "he gave SOME as preachers, SOME as ministers", etc. So wasn't he saying that SOME have the gift of teaching/disciple making, whereas others are better behind the scenes????

    But the WT Society makes every member feel THEY MUST do it. That's because they need all that free labor to keep their publishing empire running.

    Lev 5:1 Rat on (report) your mother, father, spouse, children, brother, sister, and best friend so you can live forever. Did I forget to include your family pet if they have had a blood transfusion?

    I think this scripture has such a hold on most jw's. "God will never let you go through anything you can't bear". This scripture has helped millions live miserable lives.
