Most Comprehensive Work on JW in Nazi-Germany now in English
by GermanXJW inthe thesis of german historian detlef garbe on jw in the third reich now becomes also available in english.
to me this is still the best in-depth analysis of the jw history in nazi-germany.
despite the watchtower's attempt to exploit him he remained neutral and also made some critical notes at stand firm-exhibitions.

Change in Stating the Period Since 1914?
by GermanXJW inthis maybe just coincidence but this sentence in the 15th feb, 2008 watchtower stroke me:.
nine decades have passed since jesus was installed as king in heaven in 1914. as challenging as it may be, we must prove ourselves ready and keep on the watch.
already the year 1914 is forty-four years in the past.

Have You Ever Rejected Being Appointed an Elder/MS Before the Announcement?

they said they rejected because it was too much responsibility for them.
were you ever approached that the boe wanted to make you an elder but you refused?
