specifically for women but all can join in.
1. whether you believe in the bible or not are you free to read /allowed to read the bible,the word of god?.
2. whether you want to or not, are you free to read/ allowed to read the shepherds book, the word of men?.
How does the downplaying of women in the Christian setting gel with how women were used by God in the Old Testament ?
Deborah was a Prophetess and also a Judge over Israel "and the sons of Israel would go up to her for judgement"
as one example .
You don`t hear much about her and how Jehovah put her in such a responsible position from the WT/JW `s do you.
hebrews 13:8.
"jesus christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.".
the book of hebrews declare that jesus is god in this verse.
Will the real Jesus please stand up ?
Jesus -the word.
Jesus- the logos
Jesus - Michael the Archangel
Jesus- the son of God
Jesus - the first born of all Creation
Jesus -the king of the Jews.
Jesus - the king of Christians
Jesus - the king for a thousand years after Armageddon
Jesus- a carpenter
Jesus - a babe and then a youth growing up.

Thanks Terry ,. I wasn`t disappointed .I think I would put this in the forward of your book.
" Elder ( insert name here ) didn`t want his his name published in the book so I will honour his wishes and leave it out of the book"
i wonder if there will be panic buying of food, guns, gas ect due to the corona virus.
what do you guys think?.
I called into the supermarket today to get some goody`s, mainly for the wife ,truly ,anyhow after picking up a few goodies I ventured down to the aisle where the tissues ,hand towels ,and toilet paper used to be ,and lo and behold there was not one item left in the whole aisle.
I live in regional Victoria Australia a fishing coastal town with a population of about 6000- 8000 people at the most,however this weekend is a long holiday weekend where it can grow up to 50,000 plus.
And we are a good 4-5 hours away from a major city Melbourne .And their is panic buying here ?
its crazy ?
(referred to below: watchtower bible and tract society presidents: russell, rutherford, knorr, franz )did you know that from 1879 until 1954 ... ... the writings of c.t.russell, j.f.rutherford, nathan knorr, and the watchtower's own charter... ... agreed ... that jesus christ was to be worshiped?this fact has been cleverly and dramatically hidden by manipulation of older quotations.
______________________________________________________________________pastor charles taze russell answers the question for us.
see below zion’s watch tower 1898 jul 15 p.216“question: the fact that our lord received worship is claimed by some to be an evidence that while on earth he was god the father disguised in a body of flesh and not really a man.
Did you know that from 1879 until 1954 ...
... the writings of C.T.Russell, J.F.Rutherford, Nathan Knorr, and the Watchtower's own charter...
... agreed ...
that Jesus Christ was to be WORSHIPED?
And isn`t that what Philippians says in Capt.2 : 8-11 ? and all of the scriptures in the New Testament ?
Not one scripture in the N.T. charges Christians to be witnesses of Jehovah.not one.
However their are over twenty scriptures that state that Christians are to be witnesses of Jesus Christ.
do you think any higher ups know that much of the doctrine they teach is bunk?
thinking back to the time of raymond franz, how he pointed out specifically numerous teachings that the churches really did have right all along, and really any of the hidden mic apostacy trials you listen to on youtube, you see that even when inconvenient bible teachings are proven, the elders just try to sweep it under the rug and move on.
i think i remember franz saying how one of the gb approached him somewhat sympathetically, but there was nothing he could do.. whether you believe in the bible or not, there are some basic beliefs common among most denominations because they're just so plainly stated, such things as heavenly life for all christians, no central authority structure, minimal use of god's name, etc.
Of course they do ,but they have painted themselves into a corner by their having believed and promoted this religion for so many years ,and that they are now beholden to it for their financial livelihoods and to come out against it now would leave them and their wives destitute.
They simply have too much to lose personally.
can we really talk about beauty?
(first, a necessary preamble.
bear with me, please.
“It was necessary for the copies of the heavenly things to be purified with these sacrifices, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these. For Christ did not enter a man-made sanctuary that was only a copy of the true one, but he entered heaven itself, now to appear before us in God’s presence” (9:23-24).Heb.
Big deal , Christ`s entering into heaven ,apparently Satan has had that privilege all along since his rebellion against Jehovah God according to the book of job.He could come and go as he pleased .Job Chap.1
And if the Jw`s are wrong about Satan being confined to the earth in 1914-19 then Satan is probably still chatting with God in heaven to this day.

That was a good read Terry not only funny but surprisingly informative .
I`m now looking forward to you meeting a Jehovah`s Witness ?
One who will not or cannot be a witness for Jehovah ?
I`m sure that would be an excellent piece of writing by you also .
another very well researched programme by the blue envelope exploring stephen lett's bio and his family interest in property.
interestingly his parents were pioneering until the new service year 1975 , when they immediately changed tack and began investing in properties along the gulf coast.
once again, highly recommended veiwing.. https://youtu.be/9qh0jbvsdrc.
It was a very interesting video that brings up a question in me regarding all of the G.B.members .?
O.K,.I can understand them getting their accommodation ,meals ,and health care benefits along with a travel allowance ,however I just wonder how much money apart from those things do they actually get ?
And no matter how much it is all moneys combined that they get comes from money donated by R&F JW`s to further Kingdom Interests .
How much of those donated moneys furthers the personal interests of the G.B. members ?
