    My favorites are:

    "Paradise earth": not in the Bible

    "Great crowd" of "other sheep" - two unrelated texts... put them together, and voila!, you just changed the destiny of millions!

    "7 Gentile times" - this expression does not appear in the Bible either... "7 times" is in Dan Ch 4, and "Gentile Times" is in Luke 21:24... different unrealted contexts...

    Any other unbiblical JW expressions?

    Dagney... interesting... even the word perfection... I don't think appears in the Bible....

    Snowbie... "filed service".. not even those words are Biblical...

    Psst! The list might be shorter if your phrased it the other way 'round. Just sayin'.
