Where was Jehovah for people before The WTS?
by mrbunyrabit ini was just wondering, since the wts claims its the only true religion, and channel to god, where was jehovah for the people before the wts?.
how did they get to know truths?
i know it was "prophesied" that the true religion will die down, and come back at the end of the system, but um.... where was god for the poor people who didnt have th wts?.

Soundtrack to the Watchtower's financial meltdown
by cedars inyes, i know we're possibly many decades away from the society becoming nothing more than a faint blip on the religious radar, but it strikes me that the rot has well and truly started.
last year saw an unprecedented 16% drop in branches, and this year's figure by all accounts will also show a decrease in branches.
added to this, the society have slashed their monthly magazine printing commitments by 50% in only 7 years.

Was this their finest hour?
by Nambo innow regarding the candace conti case, where the org will be put under pressure to change their policies, will they obey caeser in this case rather than god?, .
my point not being to do with the rights or wrongs of current jw policy, but in the view that they obviously belive their current policy is from god himself, will they therefore stick with "jehovahs" percieved will or will they disobey god (from thier point of view, not mine),and compromise and "commit fornication with the beast".. is it the same religion that wouldnt bow down to caeser even in the face of death back in the 1930s ?
time will tell?, or maybe money will be more of an incitement to "disobey god" than the lives of faithfull and stout brothers?
