boom!
by username injust before the morning adjournment in the australian proceedings the judge played an absolute blinder.. he asked the elder as in deuteronomy would the jehovah's witnesses stone a woman for committing adultery?!

The judge made a good point, because the truth is JW's take random thinks from the old testament and apply it today, and on the other side, they do not apply everything from the new testament, or say huge parts of new testament apply only to 144.000 humans.
This is what happens when you do not accept a dispensationalist view of the bible. It is the only way everything makes sense.
The JW's are confused because they do not understand nor accept that there are different dispensations / administrations in the way God treats with humans, and we have to comply with the rules of the dispensation we live in.

JW EXPERT WITNESS FLOORED BY COMMISSION OF INQUIRY LAWYER
by steve2 inmuch has already been written about dr monica applewhite, the expert witness hired by the jw organization.
her job was to provide "expert" testimony to the australian commission of inquiry into jehovsh's witnesses' policies and practices on child sexual abuse.
astonishingly, dr applewhite was unprepared for the inquiry lawyers' questions.

I think applewhite is a person who is hired by organizations that have had cases of sexual abuse and that want to improve their image, apear like they are doing something to fight the issue.
Looks like she is hired for the image of the abusers and not to care for the victims.

Don't be sorry for it, they are not the true religion anyway, there is no one true organization. God deals with people individually, not with organizations.

Is It Time to regroup?
by John Aquila inhow much do you want to bet that the organization has already started preparing articles for the watchtower magazines, convention talks, circuit overseers talks and letters to bodies of elders, to refute what is happening in australia?
.
right now the most important thing for the wt to do is protect their image that they are gods visible organization.especially in the u.s. and latin american countries.

I was thinking of this today ... they are probably preparing articles, maybe a small change of the doctrine and conclude that the tribulation is starting with an atack at the true religion ...
I hope this goes further and that their position as a charity org. is also questioned ...
They took the Name of the Lord in vain and they deceived a lot of people.

New World Translation Versions/Revisions
by PietaHouse inhi folks.
new here, and growing weary of finding an e-text version of one of the earlier releases of the new world translation.
i have searched high and low, and for some reason, it is as if it does not exist.. i'm catholic, but for research purposes and as a courtesy to jws, i've put the 1984 and the 2013 versions in a database format for e-sword (e-sword.net).

@ Pieta
I had no idea you can put the nwt in that program....
do you have to torrent link or name?
I downloaded e-sword a few weeks ago but did not learn how to use it, yet

Don't feel sad. God is not in an organization. God is alive and we can have a personal relationship with Him. We do not need any other mediator but Jesus, no organization, no group of people, no one else.
