    Hi! inkling.

    Nice to meet you.
    I am an ex-JW which lives in Japan.

    Probably, the word which you visualize is an article of my website.

    This is the word which vice president William I. Mann, the Watch Tower society of those days, described.
    I liked this picture.

    These are great! I love that quote at the bottom of the page about truth coming from Satan too. Bookmarked!

    leavingwt's scan of the first W/T reminds of a little experience. I once visited Bethel and they had on display the first ever issue. I read the opening sentence "That we are living in the last days.....are facts"

    I thought at the time, how sad it was that the first sentence in the first WT was totally wrong - having been written in 1879, and we believed that the last days began in 1914,

    It did not make me question the faith though....
