  JW.org to be banned in Russia

  by redvip2000 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  my facebook was "lit up" today with all the out cries about the possibility of the organization's website being banned in russia.. as many of you recall this past august a court in russia banned the website and sought to make accessing the website in russia illegal.

  well tomorrow the appeal by the org will be heard in court.

  if the appeal is denied, jw.org will no longer be available in that part of the world, causing endless lamentations and cries of "persecution", only to bolster the idea that they are truly hated by the world because they are true christians.

  @Banned on the Run - I can confirm that it can be accessed from within Russia and that all 'extremist labeled publications' can be downloaded.

  check this link of the Russian ministry of Justice for a complete federal list of extremist literature (use google translate)

  nr 510 on this is 'What does the bible really teach'

  nr 518 on this is 'My book with bible stories'

  i thought i'd share the 2014 yearbook stats.

  i converted the file to excel format & sorted the increase in publisher's column from largest to smallest.

  @All i was talking with

  It seems that someone restricted my ability to post on this forum since my nr of posts is suddenly limited from 100 to 25 per 24hrs. I take that as a signal of censorship and have, because of that, decided to leave this forum for what it is.

  Goodbye all this was my last post

  @GoneAwol about the widow who threw 2 coins in the treasury box ,.. Who's treasury box? And in Mark we see that many rich people threw a lot of money in... so who knows how much was already in the treasury box, i think a surplus and more than they did need.

  The treasury was usually a building or a room, where money or other valuables are kept for security. Numbers 31:54 indicates that at an early period “the tent of meeting” served, in a sense, as a sacred treasury holding contributed gold.
  
  There is never money left over since we use all of it at a certain time when needed.

  @GoneAwol imagine there is a big disaster somewhere and in that country are a lot of foreigners. right away the country where those foreigners belong to will send a plane to evacuate their citizens before they do anything else. That is also how we think about our 'nation"
