more than one church of the first century read The book of Enoch as Scripture. But now, most churches regard it as not inspired.

God Says Scripture is Enough
by Perry infrom the 2013 new world translation 2 tim.
all scripture is inspired of god and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness, so that the man of god may be fully competent, completely equipped for every good work.. .
as jw's we must have read that scripture a thousand times.

Something Big is Coming...
by notsurewheretogo inthe annual meeting of the governing body of jehovah's witnesses will be in october 2014.. .. in november 2013, just after the last one they published this now famous statement in the 15th of november 2013 watchtower page 16 paragraph 17 says:.
"at that time, the lifesaving direction that we receive from jehovahs organization may not appear practical from a human standpoint.
all of us must be ready to obey any instructions we may receive, whether these appear sound from a strategic or human standpoint or not.".

I hardly believe that the 144000 will be regarded as symbolic in this Annual Meeting. This is a core doctrine in the Watchtower Theology. I think they will wait until the overlapping generation passes.

The Watchtower says:
For instance, our understanding of Bible truth is constantly becoming clearer. This is to be expected, for “the path of the righteous is like the bright morning light that grows brighter and brighter until full daylight.” (Prov. 4:18).......... If we are to have Jehovah’s favor and blessing as individuals, we must support his organization and accept adjustments in our understanding of the Scriptures
Currently I do not support Jehovah's organization, so I did my own adjustment in this issue. In the past I believed that Rutherford was the Channel of God, now I know he was a drunk, and the Editor of the Golden Age Magazine was more than a crackpot . I am also doing adjustments in my understanding of Scriptures. In the past, as a witness I believed in the global Flood, as told by the Genesis account. Now I don't believe that, because I now know , by scientific facts, that it could not happen. In the past I believed that the book of Daniel was written in the sixth century BC, but now I know that it was a forgery of the second century BC. So, I am doing my adjustments.... thus the "truth" of the Bible is becoming clearer to me.

God approves The Roman Catholic Church because it survives. Muslims have God's approval because they are many. God is approving atheists because they are increasing in time. So, in the same way, God also approves the Watchtower Organization. Is not Wonderful ? !!!

RE-branding, is the WT going to be a completely new religion in a few years?
by Crazyguy inthier pushing jw.org and thiers speculation that the name watchtower is going by by.
also they may even drop the name jehovah referencing the new bible at pages 1735-37 i believe.
do you think that the names jehovah's witnesses, watchtower, are going away to be replaced by another?

If a reader reads the Watchtower Library in JW.org, he will note the mind control and the theological rubbish behind.

Zoos : The writer believed that God spoke through Neco:
"He did not listen to the words of Neco from the mouth of God, but joined battle in the plain of Megid′do."

Governing Body Will Get to Kill Worldly People at Armageddon! Gods Kingdom Rules Quote
by lostnotfound inso scanning through the gods kingdom rules i found this gem on page 228.. .
"in heaven, the 144,000 corulers with christ will recieve authority to share with jesus in weilding an "iron rod" of destruction against all enemies of gods kingdom.
( rev 2 26,27) then, together with powerful angels, the resurrected anointed ones will follow christ, the warrior king, as he sets out to confront the "vast army" of enemies that is closing in on its prey - jehovahs people.".

"The warrior king"....ooohh.....very interesting......This is the same thinking of those who wrote the following:
"Attack the Amalekites and totally destroy everything that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants" (First Samuel 15:3).

Doug Mason : It was like the author of Matthew with the Gospel of Mark. Matthew tampered some Mark's verses to accomplish his own agenda.
