  i'm thinking about getting the latest iphone and i was hoping to get some feedback from anyone who already owns one.

  Was there a recent KM that said WT is more important than the Bible?

  2. bible

  someone told me that there was a kingdom ministry within the last 2 years that said something along the lines of "jws should follow what the wt or fds says and not the bible".

  is that true?

  and if so, could someone point me to a copy of it?

  No Trespassing Signs at KHs?

  by Saoirse in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i drove by a local kingdom hall today and noticed that they had put up 3 large "private property/no trespassing" signs and 2 "this area under security surveillance" signs.

  i haven't heard any reports of vandalism or break-ins so i'm curious as to why they would put up signs like that.

  why bother going door to door if the general public isn't allowed to enter the kh?

  an update on the case states that he only went the kingdom hall once and then attended the other five services at a christian church.

  i wonder if all the letters had an impact?

  the article goes on to state the the case generated interest from as far away as germany and great britain.. .
