  in this week's book study lesson, there is a paragraph on "greed".

  the following comment is made (chapter 8, paragraph 17):.

  a christian who loves kindness will certainly not exploit his fellow worshippers.

  Noope. JW's focus is on collecting hours for their field service report, not at marketing.

  How Many JW Terms Aren't in the Bible?

  by jamiebowers in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the following youtube video made by a young person who is unbaptized and hopes to become a publisher says that the word "rapture" isn't in the bible.

  a comment on the video says that the words "disfellowship", and "god's organization" aren't in the bible either and that the name jehovah isn't written in the new testament aka greek scriptures.

  can we further enlighten this young person as to how many words jws typically use that aren't in the bible?

  Most of the houses were NH (not home), so our time was wasted.

  At least you didn't waste anyone else's time

  By the way: Is anyone one the board still going door to door?? That would be amazing. How does it feel??
