    designs - Before buying your apartment, do you ask what kind of materials were used in the constructing and how those materials were manufactured and produced. certaily Not!. Those irrelevant details don't matter. Of course, some details may be conveyed if neccessary but What count is the end result.

    minimus - Don't resort to name calling, present your facts on the table and let me straighten it. There is nothing shady about the WBTS.

    Refinement isn't the issue.

    Even using the WTS' own interpretation of Matthew 24:45-47, Jesus supposedly examined everything the organization taught from its inception to 1919 to see if they were feeding people good spiritual food at the proper time. What they were feeding them (even if it was done sincerely) was nonsense.

    As for the "refinement," the last WTS book published before 1919 was The Finished Mystery which taugh that Michael is the Pope, leviathan is the locomotive, and a distance in Revelation was the distance between Scranton, Pennsylvania and Brooklyn by way of the Hoboken ferry.

    For years after 1919, the WTS continued to celebrate Christmas and birthdays and both Russell and Rutherford went to their deaths still teaching that Jesus returned invisibly in 1874. From 1876-1943 (7 decades), the WTS taught this. Russell taught Jesus was invisibly present for 40 years, and by the WTS' own admission, he was wrong. In 1920, Rutherford published Millions Now Living Will Never Die, in which he said that it was indisputable from the scriptures that the faithful OT patriarchs would be resurrected in 1925. And this is the tip of the iceberg of the nonsense. Were they dispensing Bible truth there or their own human misunderstandings of the scriptures.

    Would you have us believe that Jesus Christ looked at this in 1919 and found the teachings to the sheep to be so true to Jehovah's Word that he appointed this organization over all his belongings?

    Plus, I thought that the WTS teaches that Jehovah has always had one true organization on earth. If so, why didn't Russell join it? Why did he start up his own? Doesn't that fact alone (undisputed by the WTS) disqualify the WTS from being Jehovah's historic organization?

    All you've done Mankkeli is read and then copy and pasted the self supporting properganda of the WTS. right off the pages of the WTS. own literature.

    Something we see quite often here by apologetic JWS.

    Rational logic complacent upon knowledge doesn't appeal to JWS, they are just programed to read the WTS. literature and use that for all of their

    answers. Thats why they tell their adherants to not read and take in any different information from any other sources but their own.

    Thats also the reason why they tell their adherents to not study and read the bible alone but only use their literature to interpret bible scriptures.

    Another one of your postulating lies is.. Garyneal and others hasn't been staying up nights concerned about how and why the WTS. self proclaimed

    themselves god's chosen organization to restore pure worship. He and others know its just self supporting propaganda devised to lure people

    into the trappings of this disingenuous destructive publishing cult.

    One thing you haven't acknowledged yet Mankkeli is that the WTS. gathered up and established many posturing lies to cultivate attention

    to the people who first started this religion/organization. The WTS. commercialized gospel with all of their exploitive attachments from the bible

    and upon the people they've have lured toward them (you) will never and can never be pure worship.

    Ding - What jesus saw before appointing those men was their sincerity and their genuine honesty to serve God faithfully coupled with their motivation to ensure that the good news about the Kingdom is preached earthwide , not what they were presently teaching or their doctrines. The attitude was the main appeal.
