what is the rarest jb book ever printed?
i just bought a copy of the finished mystery and it can be a bit rare.
but i bet there are others much more rare.
Aid To Bible Understanding was reworked into The Insight on the Scriptures. I don't know the differences between the two volumes and the "Aid" book as it was called. The changes in content were negligible as I understand.The Aid book had few illustrations, tiny type and bible type paper so it could be one book.
Three Worlds likely was Barbour's work but Russell certainly claimed to have vouched for it's content. It seems little more than a curiosity now..

Three Worlds and the Harvest of this World, Russell and Barbour wrote it together in 1877.
There's one in the library of Congress and one in a Catholic University library back east. Someone posted a PDF of it! Just Google the Title. Russell paid to publish it so its his baby.
i heard this on the youtube channel - bad jw round table discussions and i normally don't give much thought to rumours, i did find this one interesting.one of the guys on the channel said that there are plans that 'the other sheep' will be told not to attend any future memorials.he was asked how credible was this and he said that it is talk going around by those in the know, just like there had been those that knew about the fairly recent new edition of the bible being in production.even if this is probably just a rumour, the idea has a lot of merit.
the benefits for the organization outweigh the negatives and would fit in with their current direction.here are some of the benefits, for the org.
that could come from it- the biggest benefit would come from not having to accommodate so many attendants, which are more than double a normal meeting.
Its funny but I discounted the notion of an anointed only memorial because I had a mental image of a congregation with one 89 year old participant giving the talk to no one and serving himself the emblems. It then occurred to me that with the overlappers there could be many younger ones. Its annoying how indoctrination sticks with a person. My final word on an anointed only memorial? Silly.
this is obviously a question for the older generation.
i'm really curious what it was like to be a witness in the 60's and 70's?.
was the society as strict as it is today?.
In the late 60's everyone was on pins and needles that the next revelation, (district convention release) would say when the tribulation would start. All the convoluted interpretations pointed to 75. There was a camaraderie among JW's in the 60's that isn't there now. People knew each other from all over the country because of the common work we all did preaching. People didn't fake it then, they really went out door to door. They really were a "people" for God's name. I was young then and its the perspective of about 8 to 14 I am relating. Bookstudy's were hard to comprehend and therefore seemed magical. An adult probably would have seen it as silly.
i recently came across a female youtuber called "bridget azaz".
she has made a number of youtubes recording discussions that she has had with a number of jws.
she does an excellant job and i thought i would make mention of her here.there appears to be another youtube site that either she or someone else has created with a couple of her interviews which have been touched up from the originals on her 'bridget azaz' site.this is one of them and i think you will enjoy it.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkescwpafmu&feature=em-subs_digest.
The recent converts are ignorant of even the teachings of the 1990's. The watchtower spinning wheel of doctrine makes it hard to keep up, even by the old timer's. When in doubt, deny. They are actually using their minds when they deny the crazy bat shi** doctrines. When they see the quotes they can't help but begin to wonder about these wondrous stories.
this day is when there are memorial services across australia and new zealand for our nations' war dead.. on the 25th april 1915 the australian and new zealand army corp' swept ashore at a beach on the mainland of turkey at a place they call galliboli or gallipoli as it is known to us.
the soldiers were landed at the wrong beach and were shot to hell they faced cliffs and thick coastal scrub.
they were supposed to be landed some miles further along the coast which was lightly defended and flat sandy beaches.
april 19, 2017 to all bodies of elders and ministerial servants re: kingdom ministry school for the 2018 service year.
It is a merely a letter of notification that there IS a school to be held. One day for MS and one for elders no doubt. There's nothing confidential in it. Most MS will merely be told. Nothing earth shattering here, please drive thru.
the supposed start: at the last supper, the anointed were identified by partaking.
wrong.
wrong start: the only anointed present, jesus christ, did not partake.
The book that declares a snake talks promises everlasting life. You have your answer about who's anointed.
in the 1960's and early 70's there were wt dramas on subjects of morality sent to radio stations to fulfill their required block of religious broadcasts.
the familiar voices are there in the dramas.
do you remember them?
In the 1960's and early 70's there were WT dramas on subjects of morality sent to radio stations to fulfill their required block of religious broadcasts. The familiar voices are there in the dramas. Do you remember them? I inherited all of them on reel to reel in the 1980's. I put them on cassette years ago and am digitizing them now. I hope this clip will upload. There were Also public talks of 15 minute lengths on there also. They were so canned and boring.
I guess I can't post it from my computer. I will have to put them on YouTube so I can link them, sorry.
man without a helper, so for every woman out there remember you just being you, is a gift from jah and when jah discovers a worthy man & sends him to you that's (your man) he is out their somewhere and when he finds you you'll know cause he'll cherish cherish cherish the crap out of you, i wonder why clingy ness is frowned apawn i'm super clingy to the right person and its a blessing ,in my eyes also why do people wedd only until death i would recommend begging jah daily to eternally bind you and your partner furthermore i wouldn't ask for anything but that doesn't it seem more effective to ask for something knowing you don't ask for much .
i hate hearing bout all the heartbreak posted here just remember you can't relocate to the house on the rock until jah evicts you from your shack on the sand :).
Mormon reject.
