the tetragrammaton ,does not appear anywhere in the christian greek scriptures see the new world kingdom interlinear translation.
the tetragrammaton translated in english is yhwh ( not jhvh) their is no j in hebrew.. the first edition of the book " aid to bible understanding" admits that the proper pronunciation of gods name is not known.. that they have used the name jehovah because it is the more popular name used in christendoms religions.
and they say christendoms religions are apostates / anti christs /babylon the great , can they have it both ways ?.
Acts: ch 11 v25-26 And he left for Tarsus to look for Saul; and when he had found him, he bought him to Antioch. And it came about that for the entire year they met with the church, and taugh considerable numbers; and the disciples were first called Christians at Antioch.

i'm so curious, why they're not celebrating their birthdays?
is it just because jesus don't celebrate it and it's not written in the bible that they celebrated the birthday of jesus?
or is it written in the bible not to celebrate birthday?

please read the entire second chapter of the book of Collosians. v16 "Therefore let no one act as your judge in regard to food and drink or in respect to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath day__" v20-23 "If you have died with Christ to the elementary principles of the world, why, as if you were living in the world, do you submit yourself to decrees, such as "Do not handle, do not taste, do not touch!" ___in accordance with the commandments and teachings of men?"

religions make it appear that there is a key to happiness and give the impression that they have the key, and enjoy people always look to them for happiness!.
interestingly, jesus meant there is no key to happiness, but it is the very nature of all human beings.
(luke 17:21) people like jws did not even translate this verse properly.
How true, well said, backed up by scripture. I trust it will give new light to many.....between the fairytales there are many great secrets.
an examination of genesis 3:6.... .
in the 2013 nwt we read: "consequently, the woman saw that the tree was good for food and that it was something desirable to the eyes, yes, the tree was pleasing to look at.".
in the douay-rheims bible we read: "and the woman saw that the tree was good to eat, and fair to the eyes, and delightful to behold".
Since by the eating, we learned the difference between right and wrong; i.e. gained our conscience, the answer appears to be very clear. As an aside it would also appear, that the deity did not want us to achieve to this level of comprehension.
In a letter to my estranged spouse saying " I think it only right to tell you I have met someone. We spend time together and get along well." was enough to have papers within the week and finalised within the month.

when i was a young boy, i had a dog named foxie.
suffice it to say that we were so close that our spirits were one.
it seemed that we could almost communicate telepathically.
@Perry.....the effects of sin is human suffering most everywhere you look.
I suggest human suffering is a result of certain western countries claiming to know what is best for other peoples; then going there to shoot the shit out of them.

i'm looking for an image to use of the jws, it needs to be quite easy to identify them so i was thinking two people on the ministry or something like that.
i was looking in the yearbooks but nothing really caught my eye, can anyone think of a specific picture which may do the job?

@Shirley...... Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. He doesn't do much for me. Thinking maybe he's a newbie, hasn't had time to buy book bag and making public display of affection to boot. (LOL)

isn't this the case, when one reflects upon the whole scope of how the wts.
publishing organization conducts and operates itself ?.
the way they are to dress.
When you really think about it, the WTS. indoctrinates people to be the organization's own sales Representatives

60% of americans in one servey think the government did it.....even though there is no sold evidence.
let me spell it out.....a huge airplane full of fuel hit the building plowing thru the steel supports, thousands of witnesses, and video fotage, it almost flew through the building with debris blowing out the other side.
although it appears in the footage there is alot of smoke but no fire, right?
but I think there's something weird about the Pentagon.
One thing that's weird about the Petagon is the Pentagram that fits neatly inside of it.....................
