Arrangement
by Yan Bibiyan inarrangement is probably one of the most misapplied words in the wt lingo.
its frequency of appearance in the watchtower alone is 180 times greater than the bible itself (from 2008 wt cd - arrangement is used 2333 times in the watchtower publication vs. only 13 times in the bible).. when speaking of an arrangement, one is conditioned to expect a conscious effort aimed for betterment.. in a musical arrangement for example, musicians put an effort to sequence, harmonize and combine musical instruments into a composition of sounds that best conveys the composers ideas and creative force.
in a flower arrangement, the florist uses individual flowers to put together a visually pleasing bouquet.

Simon, Could You Pull and Post a Report...
by Yan Bibiyan in...on how many people have joined jwn during the years?.
lately i seem to see an influx of new people signing up.
a report of user sign-ups maybe by year or whatever breakdown available could be very "upbuilding" and "encouraging" to lurkers.

Another "Generation" Talk Straight Form the Horse's Mouth
by Yan Bibiyan ini freaking love the web.
this one is "old light", albeit only 2 years old.. speaker is gerrit losch at the 2008 hawaii convention at ~46:30 gerrit confidently explains that the "generation" is indeed the anointed on earth.
no overlapping, no exodus 1:6, no scmenticapelli.. if you can stomach the talk, there are other pearls in there about different elements of the great tribulation and what they mean.

The Holy Spirit is a Big Scared Sissy
by Yan Bibiyan in...according to the wt teachings, that is.. for trinitarians and unitarians alike, the holy spirit is the most powerful force in the universe.. however, if there is the tiniest measly baby demon just fallen asleep in that book you bought at a garage sale, the holy spirit is outa there.
the mere presence of a man-made wooden game board is enough to scare the living crap out of the hs and make your abode a nuclear waste, off limits zone for any kind of good spiritual activity.. why do we have to create the perfect conditions for the hs to operate on us?
shouldnt it be the other way around?.

If We Were to Take the Flood Account Literally..
by Yan Bibiyan inthen i cant help but come to the conclusion that everyone who died (like 99.999% of humanity at the time) was doomed from the start.. if god directed noah to build a flotation device with very specific parameters, god must have known exactly how many people, animal species, plant etc, would be in it.. what if people actually listened to noah and thousands upon thousands turned up waiting to enter the ark?
god must have known that only so many people will listen and obey instructions.. no to mention that noahs message didnt really reach that many people.
at that time how many people could have heard it?

I Finally Get "THE GENERATION"
by Yan Bibiyan inin the words of non else, but jesus himself "...truly i say to you that this generation will by no means pass away until all these things occur".
"the generation" has been a subject of doctrinal changes and wide speculations, but the latest explanation handed down by fds, pardon by jehovah, finally makes sense:.
jesus evidently meant that this generation, in modern days comprised of two overlapping generations (genx and geny), will by no means pass away before the ultimate demise of the wtbs.. for once, mother may have been right.. .

What Are the Odds of YOU Reading This Today?
by Yan Bibiyan injws, as well as other creationists as far as i know, use the argument that the odds of life starting on its own, from a mere mix of chemicals are beyond the mathematically acceptable limits and therefore life must have been designed by a higher being.
my study conductor, a window washer by trade (no, really, this is not a jab at the guys choice of making a living) told me that those odds were calculated to be beyond 1:1x10100and statistically anything over 1:1x1050is considered impossible.
i can understand the odds.
