Has anyone asked......
by mjl inhas anyone ever asked someone about way the memorial is still celebrated?
the belief is it is to be done yearly until he arrives, but he was supposed to arrive in 1914. so if that?s the case, he?s already here.

Christology 101
by hooberus inpsalm 8 kjv describes three types of entities: god, angels, and man (angels here i believe refers to nature- ie:created spirit creatures, not to merely to function as messengers) these can be diagrammed based on the psalm as follows: god (yhwh) angelsman.
the watchower teaches that jesus is now (following his resurrection) an angel (michael the archangel) and not god nor man.
the watchtowers teaching on the resurrected jesus can be diagrammed as the following: godangelman.

1874 vs. 1914
by mnb77 inin my study of the history of the jws, i have come across a piece that says the jw's story keeps changing.
the book i am reading says, " it is one thing to claim that christ returned invisibly in 1914, but another thing to make that caim after you have already sopent 50 years telling people that he returned invisibley in 1874-- and then changed your mind.
yet the jw org has done just that.

"Lord" meaning Jesus switched to "Jehovah" in the NWT?
by ithinkisee ini read somewhere on this board in that past that there were numerous examples in the greek scriptures in the nwt where the society translated "lord" that obviously meant jesus to the name jehovah to avoid problems with "trinity" doctrinal issues.. can someone point me to some research or examples regarding this.
i googled jwd but didn't really come up with anything.. .

The 1000 word apostate challenge.
by kwintestal incan you refute a jw doctrine in 1000 words or less (scriptural text and references excluded)?
pick one and try, if enough try it we should have a fairly compact "here's why you should leave the jw's" package.
here's an example: god?s name being ?jehovah?
