Watchtower illustrations.... Are they "God inspired" also?
by hubert inthe nwt bible at john 20, verse 25, clearly states "unless i see in his hands, the print of the nails, (plural) and stick my finger into the print of the nails, (plural) and stick my hand into his side.
is the plural nails a typo?
so, if this be the case, then why on page 66 of the knowledge book show the "god inspired" illustration of jesus on a stake with "one nail" (singular) through his wrists?

We need solid advice from former Elders
by peacefulpete inalmost unbelievably after 4 years of staying away from the hall and the jws last week they called and said there were allegations of apostasy against us.
we have been very quiet about our feelings and so were very surprised and angered.
we were told that they were going to discuss the allegation and determine if we would be formally accused of apostasy.
