Need page number for Greber quote
by JWOP infrom the johannes greber book "communication with the spirit world of god -- its laws and purpose" :.
you are right to ask me who i am, for it is your first duty to test the spirits that speak to you and to assure yourself that they were sent by god ... i swear to you before god that i am one of his good spirits , indeed one of his highest spirits, but my name keep to yourself ... from the days of the first man down to the present, the spirit-world has communicated with mankind.
that is true of both the good spirit-world and the bad.

this petition is going to the attorney general's office, department of justice, office of the high commissioner of human rights, and uscirf.
it needs a total of 5,000 signatures; as of this moment there are only 1,950. sign up and encourage others to sign up as well -- the watchtower society needs to be held accountable for their abuses and violations of human rights!.
