recently susie, one of my co-workers mentioned that her husband's family were all jws.
the family converted after susie's husband left home, so he never joined the jws, nor does he intend to.

it seems britain has voted to leave the eu in a move of total madness!
the markets are already in free fall and the moronic bigots who campaigned for this are celebrating the demise of our country .. i can't see how a 49-51% split can be democratic?

(ks10 p11:1) revelation 1:20 depicts jesus as holding the anointed elders in his right hand, thus, by extension, indicating that he controls all bodies of elders for the purpose of accomplishing jehovah’s will.
(re pp.
in the shepherding book it says "holding the anointed elders in his right hand".
It is the fundamental doctrine of the religion - the Bible was written only for the anointed, and therefore Jesus is only their mediator.
Funny, then, that that is not in the Bible Teach book.
the famous may 22, 1969 "never grow old in this system" awake.. in 1968 there was a fantastic 17-percent increase in crime over 1967. this came on top of many years of other large increases.
the population, however, grew only one percent last year.
so crime exploded seventeen times as fast as the population!.

What about if it's a new song?
Now, if you consider that the pink songbook only had 119 songs, and was valid for whatever number of years, and that the current songbook has 135 songs, is there really any need for new songs without doing a complete new songbook?
I think that the new songs are another process of weaning people over to digital.
