Quick question - need some references that I don't have to hand.
by LittleToe ini've just received an email from a non-jw friend who is discussing some issues with a non-internet'ed jw and would like to offer some quotes.. i'm afraid i've lost track of some stuff and haven't time to find them right now.. can anyone help with any part of this?
i'm crap at pulling up links from this site, and i know many of these sujects have been discussed here.wt quotes that say jesus isn't the great crowd's mediatorrandy's citation of the 10/1 or 1/10 1993 wt that encourages witnesses to hate apostatesquotes where the wts said you must be a member to be savedthe threads on the 144,000 doctrine (i can think of at least a couple in the last year)threads regardling doctrine changes, especially regarding the "generation change"a rebuttal to "witnesses are the 1st on every disaster scene and help to rebuild non-witnesses' houses, etc.
anyway, any focus on humanitarian efforts are just like 'polishing the brass on the titanic'".. i've already sent the link to "quotes" site, and am in the middle of answering a number of other questions.. any help would be gratefully received.. thanks in advance..

Would you take "no" for an answer.
by kwintestal init seems to me that there's a big difference between the "old-school" jw's and the "new-school" jw's when it comes to the door-to-door work.. i took "no" for an answer.
