My ONLY Regret about being an Ex-Jehovah's Witness...
by civicsi00 inreading the title of this thread, you may believe that perhaps there is one thing that i am discontent with in being an ex-jehovah's witness; and possibly this might mean that i would return to the watchtower.. well, it's not one of those threads.
i am quite happy and content since leaving.
i don't regret it one bit.. my only regret with being an ex-jehovah's witness is that i will never be able to confront the people behind the curtain.. i would have loved to have met fred franz... only to be able to confront him about all his false prophecies.. i would have loved to have met rutherfraud... only to be able to tell him that he wasn't just "being an ass" for the whole 1925 thing.

Quote from 1943 Truth book...
by civicsi00 ini was perusing the 1943 "truth shall make you free" book and i found this on page 302:.
"christ's coming to the temple in 1918 was entirely unexpected, even to his devoted faithful followers.
the truth of his coming then was first discerned by the scriptures and by the fulfillments of prophecy after the event, namely, first in 1922.".

Blood question
by civicsi00 ini just had a thought about something... does anyone remember the text where jesus cured someone on the day of the sabbath and the pharisees got mad at him for doing that, on the day that no one is supposed to do anything?
because, if i remember correctly, jesus then corrected them and stated that it was better to help save a life than to obey every letter of the law.
where i'm going with this is, can't this scripture apply to the watchtower when denying someone a blood transfusion?

English to Spanish volumes
by civicsi00 inok, so i have no problem locating an article or quote through the english volumes of the wt magazines.
) year delay between translating from english to spanish watchtower and awake magazines... and then in 1984, they finally caught up.
