September KM - 70 alterations in Revelation Climax Book
by dozy ini can't find a thread on this subject yet - if there is one , please delete this one.. the september kingdom ministry has a 4 page insert detailing the 70 alterations in the revelation climax book which is due to be studied at the book study shortly.
i'll provide scans if anyone is interested.. i will leave it up to more experienced analysts to examine the reasons for specific changes , but just a few brief observations for now:.
p32 box - "they were completely exonerated" changed to "charges against them were dropped" - interesting change of terminology for the 1918 watchtower eight.

It is right in first sentences that one won't need to read on:
Most secular historians point to 587/586-B.C.E. [...] Can the Bible prove or disprove either date?
and then
Most historians agree that 539-B.C.E. is the date of the overthrow of Babylon, for there is much evidence pointing to this. So, it is called an absolute date.
So if much evidence is pointing to 539 and the same evidence is pointing to 587 - why do they hold the one and try to disprove the other?

My wife just told me, she experienced handing out TP at other public restrooms and so it would be a common thing to do. No need to blame the JWs.

Did u convert to JW because u were ignorant, arrogant or some other reason?
by jwfacts into believe the watchtower story takes a high degree of arrogance.
to think you were so special that god drew you to his organization for salvation.
but 6 billion other humans deserve destruction, is placing huge value on your own importance.. if you converted to being a jw do you think you were sucked in because you did not know the full story (ignorance) or was it because you really wanted to believe you were more special than everyone else (arrogance)?

I'd say it is a lack of information - at least in my case. With todays ability to search the internet i'd probably won't have joined the JWs. But of course you never know. For every person there could be the right cult to join.

Greek Scriptures Apply Only to Annointed?
by Perry ini was expressing some excitement about some feature of the promises in the nt with an elder shortly before my baptism when he interrupted me and said, "now, you do know that the greek scriptures apply to 144,000 first and then only to us by extension".
does anyone know where this doctrine is stated in wt literature?
any help appreciated.

Does someone know, how to distinguish the "most part" for the annointed from the "little part" for the others?

Actual Number of the anointed remaining
by core inheard from a sister that a visitor to their cong (from usa) mentioned in passing that at the top at brooklyn they did not think that the reported number of anointed still alive was accurate, rather they believe that only a couple of hundred remain.
they apparently believe this points to the end soon (again) - also if it is true they are not proclaiming it (obviously because the time limit it imposes will be exposed as another failed date).
odd if that is the case as they keep on finding gb members who are not actually very old

Aren't the anointed supposed to be the fds and serving the spiritual food at the proper time? How do we know it's comming from the genuine annointed ;-)

Satan didn't lie but Jehova! Because Adam & Eve should have died on that specific day. Recently we had that discussion on a german board and one went into the library to check comments and hebrew language. It is something with yom=day (24hour) and mot tamût=dying to death (not(!) becoming mortal).
For anyone able to read german: „Baum der Erkenntnis“ und das mögliche Todesurteil
