Vindication 3 1932 quote about reading Rutherfords books better than Bible
by beginnersmind in1932 "if you spend 15 minutes reading each of rutherford's books you would get more pleasure than you would reading the bible for a whole year" {vin3 383} .
this is twice now ive seen this quote posted on topix.net and when i asked for confirmation of it the first time over there i didnt get any.
when i searched online i managed to find the vindication 3 book but it didnt go upto page 383. can someone verify that the above quote is accurate or check this book if they have it?

Could I please see a :Vow"
by Doug Mason ineach member of the religious order of ordained ministers belonging to the worldwide order of special full-time servants of jehovah's witnesses has taken a vow of poverty.. i would like to see a scan (jpg, gif, etc) of the "vow" they take (personal names blackened, of course).. in the meantime, while waiting for a scan, i would like to know the wording of the vow.. the watch tower has used the presence of this religious order to claim financial benefits provided to religious bodies, particularly taxation relief (see, for example: http://www.publications.ojd.state.or.us/tc4708a.htm).
so this shows one purpose of "the order".. it is not clear how the orders existence will impact on the organizations evolution.
change is inevitable, with time-related issues pressing on the organization, particularly those related to 1914, 1919 and 1935.. the organization also has to address its dwindling numbers of anointed (the 144,000) and that virtually none has any impact on the teachings.

Something creepy just happened here.........................
by Warlock inas some of you know, my office is a converted garage.
the day has been fairly still here, and all of a sudden the front door started shaking like someone was trying to open it, as if it was locked.
when i heard it start to shake i looked up and the door was moving as if someone was trying to get in.
