The offer for feb.is the new " Draw Close to God Book ",released at the 2002 district convention.The Jan.KM. says,"This Publication is designed to help people use THEIR OWN BIBLE to draw close to God.THEIR OWN BIBLE, not the NWT.
Yet the Society claims for itself and its translation of the NWT.a peculiar freedom from what they define as "the misleading influence of religious traditions,which have their roots in paganism,they go on to insist that this "influence" has colored the inspired Word of God".
So it is necessary for them to set aright the numerous examples of "human traditionalism"that is evidenced in ( ALL TRANSLATIONS,) including YOUR OWN BIBLE ,from JOHN WYCLIFFE'S to the present.Your OWN Bible has been interwoven to color the thought in support of a preferred religious view,an inconsistency and unreasonableness have been insinuated into the teachings of the inspired writings.
The endeavor of the NEW WORLD BIBLE TRANSLATION COMMITTEE has been to avoid this snare of religious traditionalism.
Now my point of all of this is: How can they indict the great scholars of ALL TRANSLATIONS, and elevate their own NWT.Then tell the rank and file to offer the new book in feb.by LYINGLY telling the public,the householder,that this publication is designed to help you draw close to God by using YOUR OWN BIBLE ,which is inconsistent and unreasonable among other snares of religious traditionalisms.and not use the NWT which they claim avoids all of this .
So,when they come to your door this Feb.to offer you the new book to read with your OWN Bible,you can say "why should I use my own Bible,its pagan,I want the NWT. Blueblades
