by neat blue dog ini am thoroughly surprised nobody has brought this up yet, but two of the original songs released last year, "i give you my best" & "jehovah welcomes you home" were performed by george benson, and the first one was a duet with singer sheila hutchinson, the same one who did duets with him over 10 years ago for the cancelled album mentioned in our kingdom ministry.
compare this:.

Why education is a killer for doomsday cults.
by Half banana inif you were to read the watchtower literature and you believed it to be the exclusive divinely inspired interpretation of the bible, i suggest that you would not be learning anything useful, instead you would simply be absorbing the indoctrination of the jw org..
what is the difference between indoctrination and education?.
take any passage from the watchtower this sentence for example which assumes significance in the end of six thousand years of human history in 1975: “how then does this fit in with god’s timetable?”.

Pastor Russell accepted the Angel, he said, not for himself, but as a trustee for the association.
Why would the Peoples Pulpit Association need a Yacht to be held in trusteeship, if it was being used in ministerial service?

Dear brothers and sisters!
In recent years, the Kingdom of the matter is expanding at an unprecedented rate. You, dear brothers and sisters, are following in the footsteps of Jesus Christ. Love for Jehovah God and for people It motivates you to share the good news from the Bible with anyone who wants to listen. we proud of your faith in these difficult times, and sincerely want to commend you for your zeal in the service of God, as well as tact and respect in dealing with neighbors (1 Pet. 3:15). the Yet we continue to receive reports that in different parts of our territory there are certain difficulties in the ministry. Although we, as people of God, try carefully observe the laws of Caesar, some are trying to "do evil with the help of the law" (Psalm 94:20;. Mark 12:17). How should we relate to it?
Already in the beginning of his ministry, Jesus warned his disciples: "Be careful with people, because they will deliver you up to local courts "(Matt. 10:17). The events of the first century have shown that although part of the collection to enjoy the world, yet from time to time, as Jesus warned, difficulties could arise (Acts. 9:31). This is happening today. But that should not frighten us, because it also shows the approaching end of this system of things. On the contrary, it is especially important to continue awake (Luke 21:36).
Such circumstances encourage each of us to strengthen our faith through sincere prayer, careful study of the Bible and zealous service. And since we We strive to glorify Jehovah in good works, that silences our opponents, and draws people to God's organization, which opens them to praise Jehovah and gain eternal life (1 Peter 2:15;. Acts 13:48.). but circumstances change, and we are forbidden to participate in some of our activities to which we are accustomed. Nevertheless, we have many opportunities to bear the good news. The best way to prevent the enemy of Jehovah - is to increase its participation in the service (2 Peter 1: 5-8.). We also even more important to really appreciate our joint meetings where we get the encouragement and strengthening of (Heb. 10:24, 25).
We do not know exactly how things will develop in our circumstances territory. Whatever it was, our efforts remain spiritually strong and to serve with all soul will bear fruit. In the new world, we will be happy to remember, as the kept the dedication and integrity in the last days. We are very proud of you and really we love you. Continue to observe the obvious evidence that no force can prevent Jesus as King, to protect its Christian congregation, that it, in turn, could proclaim the message of the Kingdom throughout the world (Matt. 28: 18-20).
With warm Christian love,
Your brothers,
