CLAM & MWB - July 2016
by Nicholaus Kopernicus infollowing cited on page six: of ps 75:4, 5, 10—what is signified by the term “horn”?
the horns of an animal are a powerful weapon.
hence, the term “horn” figuratively denotes power, or strength.

The picture that Watchtower is using to support their news [see screen shot below] is completely unrelated and inappropriate. Nothing more than sensationalist propaganda. Below is the official caption for the photo from Getty Images:
With the Kremlin (L) and St.Basil's Cathedral (R) in the background Interior Ministry troops cordon one of the entrances to the Red Square in Moscow, on December 10, 2011, during an authorized opposition protest against the alleging mass fraud in the December 4 parliamentary polls. Tens of thousands of election protesters turned out today in Moscow and other major cities across Russia in open defiance to strongman Vladimir Putin's 12-year rule.

A Brief History of MONEY and the Watchtower religion
by Terry inwatch tower corp has changed a long-standing policy in regard to donations which had been in place a long, long time.
to appreciate how drastic these changes have been, you'd have to know how it was from the beginning.. .

Russell sued the Eagle for libel, demanding $100,000 in damages for "injury to his reputation, good name, fame and standing."
$100,000 in 1912 = $2,500,000 today.

This week's resurrection video, will it backfire on the wt?
by prologos inthe resurrection is supposed to be a joyous occasion?, if it ever happened!
--well, this week's showing at the hall was the opposite, it was about death with violins playing in the background.
a recently bereaved member, , full of tears, (like many others) could not contain herself.

Like it or not this video may be more important to the GB than we might first realize. Consider the facts. Every single JW is going to have to face, whether they like it or not, the stark reality that every single person alive in their family or in their congregation or in the community is going to eventually die. The GB know this and also know that they too will be replaced with yet another overlap of the overlapping.
Death is inevitable. This video is no more "food at the proper time" than is the existence of a funeral home proof of a future resurrection.
Consider the following phrase used by the GB in recent times: "faith in the resurrection hope."
"Faith is the assured expectation of things hoped for." - Heb. 11: 1 NW
A future resurrection is a hope that JWs have. The GB are encouraging JWs to have faith in their own individual hope of a resurrection.

Why is it ok for witnesses to go to Church backed hospitals?
by stuckinarut2 inif witnesses should "get out of babylon the great" then why is it ok to go into hospitals that have been set up, and have funding from churches?.
isnt that a little contradictory or hypocritical?.

Imagine the situation in which JW parents -under the advise of their local body of elders and only after the elders had contacted the Service Department at Watchtower headquarters for instruction- were told NOT to take their sick and dying child to the only hospital in the area because it was church-backed. -

Didn't mind the film but was always wanting the TARDIS to suddenly materialize and for Dr Who to step out. Of course this never happened.

TRUTH or OPINION--which is it when the Governing Body speaks?
by Terry inwhen and why did the governing body suddenly appear?.
the governing body of jehovah’s witnesses, for all practical purposes, did not really exist as it does today, until a dangerous crisis** had developed in the watchtower religion at the headquarters beginning of the 1970’s.
historically, the founder of the watchtower corporate empire was a men’s clothing entrepreneur named c.t.

So charismatic was Russell’s persona, many Bible Students began looking at him as more than just a man. These people characterized him as the last prophetic messenger.
The Laodicean Messenger from Revelation.
Well written Terry.
You wrote in a comment:
Russell specified that the Society was to never publish another journal, meaning they could only publish The Watch Tower, which is why when the Judge began to publish The Golden Age, he did so against Russell's wishes, and he published it under a different name.
Technically the Watch Tower Society never published another journal, they merely hold the copyright. Rutherford circumvented this part of Russell's will by using a corporation he himself set up, the People's Pulpit Society (later name changed to Watchtower Bible & Tract Society of New York), to print and publish.
