He just said that the Mormons cut back on their door to door ministry and concentrate on social media.Mormons think that door to door ineffective. The speaker reaffirmed that door to door ministry remains the number 1 way for Jehovahs Witnesses to engage in the ministry.

Lol! Typing that while at the assembly, the benefits of technology.This theme is about idolatry. The Watchtower explains what is idolatry. "Imoderate attachment to anything or anyone".To idolise oneself, is idolatry.How can one idolise oneself? When they want their will to be done not God.That reminds an organisation I know off...

Joel's prophesy and the 1919 "fake anointing"
by raymond frantz infor many decades the writing department of the watchtower has been claiming that joel's prophesy in joel 2:28 had its modern fulfilment in the period between 1919-1922 :"after that i will pour out my spirit on every sort of flesh,and your sons and your daughters will prophesy,your old men will dream dreams,and your young men will see visions.".
what were the miracles performed during these assem blies ?
why are these verses connected with the begining of the last days ?

Thanks Splash ,I have corrected the link now.
If you ignore the 1919 chronology you read again Joel's prophesy in chapter 2 you see how the outpouring of spirit is followed by the end if this system of things .

For many decades the writing department of the Watchtower has been claiming that Joel's prophesy in Joel 2:28 had its modern fulfilment in the period between 1919-1922 :"After that I will pour out my spirit on every sort of flesh,And your sons and your daughters will prophesy,Your old men will dream dreams,And your young men will see visions."
What were the miracles performed during these assem blies ? Why are these verses connected with the begining of the last days ? and why is this still a future event ?
Did Jehovah pour out his holy spirit in 1919?

Where was the dead body of Jesus? Did the disciples disappear it?
by opusdei1972 ini am currently an skeptic, but i have to admit that i can't assure that all the stuff of early christianity was false.. for instance, we know that the genuine letters of paul were written before the destruction of jerusalem.
so, paul affirmed that jesus resurrected, though he was not there when it supposedly happened.
but, if jesus did not resurrect, why didn't the jews expose this falsehood?.

is not easy to prove Jesus' resurrection .You can't go back in time and get a dna speciment ,you have to engage in historical investigation and see which argument fits the facts best .There are 2 Christian scholars who developed the "minimal facts " argument ,Garry Habermas and Mike Likona .Watch the following video it's very informative and will help you reach an answer.

It just doesn't make sense .First they say " in the end we may receive instructions from the organization that don't make sense from a human point of view but we have to follow them ", implying that a worldwide organization with them as the head will still be functional .
Then they say " stick with your family study, in the end that is all that will remain " ,meaning that all organization including congragations will brake down .
And now this " At that crucial time, Jehovah will give us lifesaving instructions, and the “inner rooms” might well be connected with our local congregations."
Like Jesus said :""they are blind guides. If the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit." - Mat 15:14

navytown I needed some clarification on this verse not a diversion .I'm a believer not interested in a debate about faith in God or validity of Christian concepts

it was foreign to me until I actually read romans 3:24 on biblehub and how 99% of other translations render the phrase "undeserved kindness" as grace .
The word fro grace in the original text is "charis" No Greek whether modern or ancient will describe "charis" as undeserved kindness .This phrase removes the idea of a free gift
