i was suprised to see that there was a 'question from readers' written (27 years ago!

) providing a rebuttal to those who use leviticus 17:10-15 (such as myself) to argue that the prohibiltion against blood only applies for a life that is taken.. i will present the article here.

let's see what counterarguments we can come up with:.

1. jw

i never did understand this parable, and now i know why.

the caretaker of the field was told to let the weeds and the wheat grow together until the harvest.

i've had gardens, and i've never had one morsel of harvestable food survive an onslaught of weeds.

THE FAITHFUL and DISCREET SERVANT VS THE GOVERNING BODY OF JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES
by bible brain in

2. child-abuse
this journal is for jehovahs witnesses throughout the whole of the earth,whether active or inactive, it will be beneficial for everyone associated with the organisation today.

firstly let tell you a little about myself, i have been totally involved with the society since 1967, and a pioneer for many years, giving 100 hours each month, service to my god.

i was concerned when i read your watchtower of june 15th 2009, where it finally admitted the governing body represents the faithful and discreet slave class.

who are the false prophets today.

by barbara anderson.

in 1991, one of the watch tower societys senior writers, colin quackenbush, told me in the privacy of his office about letters which the society had received from prominent and credible elders, not apostates (thats exactly what he said), who were concerned about the increase in accusations saying that jehovahs witnesses were false prophets.

to the household of god, israel, and all those who go with... may you have peace!.

over the past week or so i have had reason to research various websites exposing the hypocrisy and heinous acts against children by the "wolves" of the wtbts.

various dear ones have taken up these issues and brought that "beast" (revelation 13:11-18) to task to a great degree.
