i have heard anecdotal evidence about the marriage of nh knorr to audrey monk [i think that was her name] and how it had never been consummated, in other words that it was a sham.

but does anyone know the facts about how this marriage ended?

did knorr engineer a divorce at some time, and if so, on what grounds?

Historical Development of the Jesus/Michael Doctrine

i have a question about the historical development of the doctrine currently held by the watchtower, specifically about jesus being michael.

i am not interested in a polemic about whether jesus is or is not michael, but rather in how this teaching evolved in the historical development of the watchtower movement.

for instance we know that at least as far back as november 1879, page 4, [reprints page 48] the watchtower was teaching a doctrine contrary to what it currently teaches:.

How Does One Get The Study Articles For The Wt Study?
by moggy lover in

2. bible
this might seem a silly question but i have not been to a watchtower study in 28 years so am unfamiliar with the latest set up.

the study watchtower magazines are not printed anymore as they are available only on the internet, as electronic editions.. ok. so how does one actually bring or get a printed copy for the study?

is one expected to print his/her own individusl copy, or are they available at the desk for those who can't print these?

When did the Watchtower first raise the idea of 1919?
by moggy lover in
1. watchtower
2. bible
with all the changes arising from the shifts in watchtower "understanding" of its own prophetic ministry, i think we can discern a slow but detirmined interest in elavating the date 1919 to almost iconic standards - soon to displace the other date of significance, 1914.. my question to those with access to watchtower material is: when in fact did the watchtower leadership first mention this date as having any significance?

popular watchtower mythology proceeds along the lines of jehovah coming to his temple in that year, and on inspecting the then watchtower leadership, chosing them to be his exclusive spokespersons on earth.. although this supposedly took place in 1919, it was certainly not in that year that there was any awareness that such was occurring.

it was many years after when this first began to be pressed.

Has the GB ever admitted that Jehovah has an invisible body?
by moggy lover in
1. watchtower
2. bible
this is a natural consequence of the watchtower position that their god is in a finite location in some corner of the sky.

if he is locative and in a specific place, does this mean that he has, in some sort of sense a "body"?

thus, like the mormons who believe that the "father" has a literal and physical body made of flesh and bone, does tha watchtower also believe that their deity too, has a body, albeit an invisible, "spirit" one?.
