  To Scully--A Tribute!

  by Atlantis in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  if you are a new person to the board you might want to send scully a pm thanking her for her hard work and dedication.

  the boe project owes her for helping it to get started.. example:.

  several years ago there was a website called (dirtclod.com) who had the courage to display the boes right out in front of everybody.

  "New light"?

  by winstonchurchill in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  https://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/watchtower-study-june-2016/man-with-inkhorn/.

  so i guess baptism is no longer the "mark for survival".. as a matter of fact, that key aspect of the 'old light' is not even acknowledged in this article.. they are just publishing new understanding without even bothering to explain the full extent of the change, hoping nobody will remember how it was... and they may be right about that..

  The same WT on page 26 § 13 shows us the "mark for survival":

  STAY in the ORGANIZATION

  An even greater mistake would be to allow the faults of others to stumble us and cause us to leave Jehovah’s organization. Were that to happen, we would lose not only the privilege of doing God’s will but also the hope of life in God’s new world.

  WT March 15, 2016 - Kids pressured toward baptism again

  by Designer Stubble in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the study wt of march 2016 is up on jw.org and is the standard article around this time of year...pressuring young kids to dedicate their lives to the organization again.

  this wt will be studied during may, so just in time to pressure them into baptism at the regional conventions this summer.such articles really upset me, as the realization of how many young promising lives will be destroyed.

  how many families will be broken up, when the child who got baptized as a minor (ages 6 and up are mentioned in the literature) decides as a young adult that his/her conscience no longer allows him/her to be part of such a destructive cult.

  1950 Watchtower Bound Volume now Complete!

  by Atlantis in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the 1950 september 15th watchtower is now complete and this will finish the 1950 watchtower bound volume.

  a big thank you to jaydee for all of his hard work of scanning the watchtowers into jpg files which i received and converted into pdf files and made them searchable.

  jaydee worked day and night to get these files finished for us and i really appreciate his kindness... we only had to darken out one name on one shipping label.

  Pardon my ignorance , but what is the point of producing all these bound volumes ? from years ago !?

  My 75 years old mother (second genereation JW) like to say:

  "The WT never said this." For example - she says, the WT never said anything against higher education.

  So I can show her the truth about the publications. Anyway - it doesn't matter to her.

  logicl thinking has no place in this religion. The elders expected obedience and that pops change his last will in favor of the JWs. That could be the reason, they don't won't your sit in.

  by joe134cd in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i was reading a thread on here a couple days back that implied that the only hard back copies of the rnwt was only available in english.

  i have an uber dub friend who lives in a portugese speaking country and decided to question him about this.

  according to him there is a hardback copy of the rnwt in portugese and it is also available i another european language (outside of english).
