No Governing Body in Paul's day
by The Searcher inthe given understanding of the bible account at acts 15 regarding the circumcision issue is that a "governing body" resolved the issue.
is this assertion based on scriptural evidence?
while jesus walked the earth, some of his apostles were contentious with each other regarding who would be superior to the others.

WT Flip-Flops on JesusÂ’ InspectionÂ… Was it in 1918 or 1919?... Did the WT PASS or FAIL?
by Alfred inthis is utterly ridiculous.... .
the more i research this particular subject, the more flip-flops i uncover.
it seems the fds cant even make up their minds regarding what happened in 1918 (or should i say 1919?).

My Letter To the Watchtower

it never recieved a reply (i did not include 'attn writing committee' in the address however).

First reference to Christ's return in 1914?
by I quit! indoes anyone know the exact date the watchtower first referred to christ returning in 1914. the thread about the 1918/1919 date got me thinking about this.

Armageddon "WILL" be Here Before 2014!
by african GB Member ini met a jw this past saturday, he was doing street witnessing, he told me that the end was coming.
i asked him when that is going to happen, and he told me that 2014 will be 100 years since satan was dismissed from heaven.
he told me that it would'nt make sense for god to let more than 100 years "pass before ending this world".. .
