Ok, for fun I asked a question on here: Replies to your comment on "An Earthly Paradise Soon to Come!"'s post on facebook.
I simply asked where I can find the concept of a paradise earth in the NT. The responses so far only referring to a JW publication. Well...not giving up yet.
2018 service year report of jehovah’s witnesses worldwide.
see details of the global preaching work of jehovah’s witnesses from september 2017 to august 2018.. https://www.jw.org/en/publications/books/2018-service-year-report/.
average publishers preaching each month: 8,360,594 (2017 - 8,248,982).
Numbers published by the WT do not say anything. Part could be true and another part false. Very common for organizations that depend on the perception among its members of how great their organization is. Even if there are only 10 congregations left with 5 members, the WT will publish it in such a way that it seems positive.
The only figures I would be interested in are the financials. The WT will never publish those so have to wait for "Satan's" world to do that one day.....
in the last few weeks, i have noticed in (jw.org) the nwt has had new releases in some local languages.. today, i read this: "the new world translation of the christian greek scriptures was released in the kabiye language on december 16, 2018, in kara, togo.
on the same day, in madrid, spain, the books of matthew and john from the new world translation were released in spanish sign language.
the new world translation has been translated in whole or in part into 178 languages.".
The demand must be huge in Togo ....

Thanks, will try to "influence" the group :-)
anyone doing anything interesting/fun for the holidays this year?

other than that, just chillin.
Hey... no-one visiting Bethel????
thanks for reading (i'm sorry this is a little bit of a sensitive topic, though i'll try to be gentle.).
a little back story.
i have been working so hard to build my faith this year, and i am finally at the point where i am beginning to trust god and i want to build an unbreakable relationship with him.
What is a lot? Seems you r more concerned with your future sex life than your future happiness
it's been 12 years since i submitted my resignation letter, and stopped playing by their rules.. in a spurt of manic rationality, i blew up the bridge, sky high.
knowing that the diseased organ would need to be forever removed, away from anything remotely functional in my mind, body, and soul.
lest i be tempted to return.... so, i left.
The challenge is when one in a couple is leaving the WT. It really generates a virtual break
i just wanted to give a brief intro.
i was born into jw world and left it in 2015 along with my husband and 2 little children.
looking forward to reading the posts and interaction with you.
Welkom bien venido welcome bien venue wilkommen
last weekend's wt study (nov. 18) had 3 count em three biblical references to the christian hope of heavenly resurrection that had to be twisted into talking about earth to fit their doctrine.. 1:.
in what sense do the mild-tempered “inherit the earth”?
jesus’ spirit-anointed disciples inherit the earth when they rule over it as kings and priests.
Headaches...pure nonsense...pfff
there is a one page article in the current wt study mag, sept 2018 pg 22 with the title “do you know the time?”.
in that article it describes a number of different ways you can say the time is 1:30. it goes on to say “there are even places where that same time could be expressed as “half two,” meaning 30 minutes before two”.
what i would like to know is this, where in the world does “half 2” mean 1:30?
It is done in some English speaking countries too. I got confused when they did that. So, it is not a lie in this case
