Vol 1 & 2, Insight on the Scriptures -- when available?
by Fatfreek in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
please bear with me on this question as i made my exit long ago.

i see that the september, 1988 kingdom ministry announced the insight on the scriptures volumes as "new publications available".

is it possible that they were made available, perhaps in limited quantities, during the divine justice summer conventions, which began june 16-19 of that year?.
AlphaOmega

Yes, both volumes were released then.

AT THE "Divine Justice" District Conventions of Jehovah’s Witnesses, announcement was made of the release of a new Bible encyclopedia entitled Insight on the Scriptures. This is a two-volume publication, with a total of 2,560 pages, all of it in clear, readable type. At present it is available only in English, but translation is already well under way in a number of other languages.InsightontheScriptures includes much of what was formerly in the book AidtoBibleUnderstanding and a great deal more. In what respects is it different? Scores of sections have been revised and updated. There are also many new articles as well as added features in InsightontheScriptures.

Is the love of the believers in Yorkshire cooling off more rapidly than elsewhere?!
That was from the November KM. I'll check with the March WT.

how big is your library?
AlphaOmega

Ninja - I don't have the bound volume, but I do have some originals, but no duplicates I'm afraid. There are a couple for sale on www.abebooks.co.uk
I do have some duplicate bound volumes and other publications. I can bring the box along to the Apostafest and you can help yourself if you like. No 68's though :(

Wikipedia article on the GB falsely claims the GB has existed since 1884

i'm currently in the process of reading crisis of conscience.

in it, franz meticulously goes about debunking the notion that the wtbts has always had a governing body.

in fact, through a variety of documents, and using the society's own literature, he shows that the watchtower's board of directors was powerless.

The Photodrama of Creation also claims that the Witnesses were around in the first century as the IBSA !

My First Counselling Session. EDMR anybody?

so it hadn't escaped my attention that two weeks ago i was melting faster than a snowman on a lava flow path.. i had to do something.

i ended up in hospital.

i hoped this would mean i'd get help, not just medication, which i've tried for 6 months and hasn't really helped.
AlphaOmega

I have a friend who has just finished a course of EDMR - she says it is brilliant. I can't say much more than that, but I have noticed some positive changes - as has she.
