Imagine the next time Witnesses come to your door and you agree to an in-home Bible study under one condition - You get to choose the Watchtower publication that is studied.
The Finished Mystery
now that the org.
has gone 90% digital, it would seem most people now would rather read a good old fashioned book than a tablet!.
way to show insight oh fearless leaders!.

The Finished Mystery
years ago it was all about armageddon and getting out of babylon the great.
then with the draw close to jehovah and is there a creator that care about you.
it was all about building a relationship with jehovah.
I noticed this began over decade ago. The literature cut back on Paradise propaganda because "We don't want people focusing on salvation, but rather developing a relationship with Jehovah."
You may recall that the cover to the "Knowledge" book was changed from a paradise painting to a mountain.
I believe the end of their printed literature as well. They will outsource it in lands where tablets and PCs are not everyday household items. You will be able to download their literature...for a modest donation.
i think the finished mystery book probably contains the stupidest beliefs ever recorded!
almost any prophecy publication but especially anything to do with revelation, is unbelievable!
.
If you mean strictly a JW belief, the whole 1914 thing.
The Great Flood is a whopper.
The Bible is God's word. Remember, "All scripture is inspired and beneficial" and if "anyone takes away from the scroll...". Yet, the so-called "apochryphal" were deleted centuries after they were written. 367AD is when the canonical 66 books were decided upon.
i could only think of weddings and wedding anniversaries .
The wedding ceremony practiced by JWs in the United States and the use of wedding rings comes from pagan beliefs of preventing the bride from being possessed by spirits.
how do jw's view the following scripture or how differently does it read in their version?.
1 timothy 5:8- anyone who does not provide for their relatives, and especially for their own household, has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.-niv.
but if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.-kjv.
There is no footnote. There is no "unless".
i have little doubt articles of impeachment will be drawn up on trump within the next year or so.
my only question at this point is what are they going to get him for?.
collusion with a foreign government to subvert an election?.
Absolutely nothing.
There is one real political party in Washington D.C. The party of elitists. It seems that no elected officials will ever be held accountable for their illegal activities because it will expose the lot of them.
i found this ghost image on google maps of the apostle paul walking on one of his missionary journeys through the region now known as turkey.. evidently the google map car was able to capture the spiritual afterglow of the apostle paul while he was walking along a roadway on his one of his missionary journeys.
interestingly the google mapping computer was able to create an overlapping image from the first century and from the twenty-first century.. .
Overlapping image. Hilarious!
so i've recently been travelling about usa and mexico and of course seen the carts parked at tourist spots all over and i had a funny thought ...if somehow we could get a bunch of identical carts together and print up a placard with a few key facts about the real truth with jwfacts logo and just park them right in the same areas ,dress up in our old meeting clothes and stand about with a coffee and look on our phones i wonder what response we would get from anyone ?
or park them outside assembly's and just stand.off at a distance ...basically the same thing they do to all society !.
You don't need a cart. Just make a sandwich board and set it next to their cart. Then just walk away and collect your boards after they leave each day.
howdy guys!
so how long has it been since you have seen your jw family or friends?
or do you even care to have them in your life anymore?
Going on 9 years for my parents. I probably spoke to my dad over the phone about 3 years ago. I thought we were heading in the right direction. I think he only hangs on to being a Witness because he's spent the last 45 years of his life doing it and now he has a few precious years left.
I have a brother. I haven't seen him in 11 years, but he is no longer a practicing Witness. We talked about a year ago.
I have sister I haven't seen in 11 years. She's definitely all in on the Witness thing. She's raising her kids in the cult.
