Are JW's using different terminology for "congregation discipline"?
by booker-t ini have been out for over 20 years now and sometimes i run into a young jws on the street and the language seems to be "greek" to me.
i have a hard time understanding what they are talking about.
when i was in(90s) they had 4 catergories for congregation discipline.

A question re the "organization".
by tim hooper ini'm trying to discover when jw's first came up with the idea, belief, or just the term "jehovah's organization".. a quick check of available wt cd's shows that the expression was already being well used in 1950. yet there doesn't seem to be any references to a "jehovah's organization" in much earlier jw publications, although i'm having difficulty going back beyond 1950.. has anyone any info as to how this all started and progressed to present day?.
i'm keen to know this.
the organization thing is a major part of jw teachings yet there's no references to such a thing in the scriptures.

The GENERATION explanation is now a BOLD FACE LIE
by scotoma inwhen i first heard about the new "generation" explanation i was confused because i didn't see clearly how they were explaining it.. now it looks like they finally figured it out for themselves and it is no longer confusing.. it is now a simple, ignorant, bold face lie.. this is from the january 1st watchtower.
(and i hope to hell someone from writing gets wind of this).
paragraph 15 page 31 blue stands for the exact words in the watchtower.
