Lineage of Mary?
by NanaR ini hope someone here can help me with this question.
i seem to remember very strongly from my jw upbringing having been taught that while matthew gave the lineage of jesus through joseph, luke gave the lineage through mary.
i recently became somewhat interested in the catholic faith.

"secondary worship", obeisance, Jesus
by NanaR infriends:.
i have a question for the researchers here.
i tried to do a search, but the word "worship" brings up way too many posts to filter through.. i remember as a young jw being told that jws render "secondary worship" to jesus christ.

Beyond their control
by NanaR ini have been thinking a lot lately about the relationship between jesus and those who are "born again" by the spirit.
it occurred to me that this is the only relationship in the jw religion where the "organization" or the fds does not intervene (see recent threads regarding jesus as mediator only of those in the new covenant according to jw doctrine).. since the number of those partaking of the emblems at the memorial has remained basically unchanged over the last 20 years (increased some years, decreased others, but no steady movement in either direction), i was wondering what the future might hold with regard to jw doctrine regarding the heavenly class.. i read another thread that indicated some congregations have taken steps to decide who is "truly" anointed.. if the sealing stopped in 1935 except for replacements for unfaithful ones, why does the number "wobble" instead of decreasing?
people born in 1920 (15 in 1935) are now 86 years old if still living; and we know that not all of the anointed were young folks in 1935. so, faithful or unfaithful, they are passing away.
