it seems to me scripturally speaking, that jehovah's witnesses are emphasizing the wrong name.. it should be jesus, not jehovah.
who is the way, the truth and the life?
(john 14:6).
Didn`t the " Aid " book acknowledge that the name / word Jehovah was not the correct pronunciation of God`s name but that was the most common /popular name in use .?
I ask : In use by who? By Christendom ? Who else would be using the name of God if n the people of Christendom ?
So why would Jehovah`s Witnesses / WTB&TS follow the traditions of Christendom and not use the more accepted pronunciation of God`s name as Yahweh ?
september 2022 study watchtower p.16, par.7 .
"the second group consists of the great crowd of other sheep.
are their names now written in the book of life?
Apparently Jehovah God didn`t know about ink or biro and only used pencil or maybe he did have fore-knowledge that the WTB&TS would have to do backflips on their prophecy`s / predictions.
So pencil and an eraser would make good sense.
folks: well, here in the united states, tonight, july 19th, is when the mlb all-star game will be played.
and, it will be played at dodger stadium, in los angeles, california.
for those of you who don't know, the all-star game is a game in which members of the american league teams compete with members of the national league teams.
While I can`t remember an Assembly at that particular time I certainly do remember where I was when Neil Armstrong set foot on the moon ,at that time I worked for Kodak here in Melbourne Aust.and we gathered in the lunch room to watch that historic moment via TV.
I think we were in the lunch room a lot longer than the bosses anticipated because they did take a lot longer than expected to emerge from the capsule.
NASA did use Kodak film and on tuesdays they showed Kodak films at lunch time in a cinema on site which went for about 30 mins,of previous moon missions.
I hope the ball game is as good as you expect it to be .
I have fond memories of that time.
Funny but I do remember an International Convention held in Melbourne Aust. in 1963 when their was hardly anyone who came here from overseas .LOL
my wife had a hip replacement on june the 17th and while the op itself was apparently succesful ,she has had a reaction to the anesthetic ?
and has suffered delirium and is still in hospital with no apparent improvement.. its been very distressing for me to say the least.
sorry if i sound a bit morbid but i just had to share,.
Thank`s Friends, my wife is now at home with us, my son and DIL also live with us ,which is a great help. She still has some periods of tiredness and vagueness which is undestandable but it has been a big improvement now that she is home ,
The big challeng for me now is to get her to do her exercises as I know how important that is for her recovery. She can be a bit stubborn and pig headed when she wants to be

Maybe they also should have been using the name Yesus instead of Jesus as their was no J sounding letter in the Hebrew language to my knowledge .
And giving the fact that JW`s have such a disdain / hatred for Christendom why would they copy them ?

Thank you all for your responses it has been much appreciated.
titch, yes i had a hip replacement about two years ago now and i was up walking and out of hospital in 4 days .
i thought my wife would have a similar experience. sadly not to be,
And I feel a bit guilty about encouraging her to have the OP.
Anna Marina , Thank you for that link it has been very helpful.
My son and I have a meeting with the Doctor and nurses tomorrow about her prognossis and what options are available to us about her future care, apparently after about 17 years of parkinsons she is now showing signs of dementia also.
Thank you for your concern

rutherford in his last book in 1942 ironic that it was called "children" told witnesses don't have any kids!!!
armageddon is just afew years away.
2022 many witnesses still live by this ideal...i have no kids at 50 years old because of this idiot!.
Were you a born in JW W-007 ? if so that might explain it.
I was a convert at 19 married 2 years later in 1961 to my convert GF and had 2 boys and other JW`s in my era were marrying and having kids ,so i guess it all depended on the individuals and maybe the environment we were in at the time ? or where in the world we lived .
Regardless we all have regrets about our JW experiences.
Take care my friend.

Has anybody here experienced this illness before ?
Anybody in the medical profession here ?
remember the picture of the lion with the beachball... in the new system?
well here's a real life beluga with a rugby ball.
i think you'll all love this.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nq3saieg6oy.
The fact that the whale brought the ball back to the boat was amazing ,I wonder if it continued to do this or it was just a one off ?
Thanks for sharing Anna M.
