Why the name change from Watchtower Bible College of Gilead to Watchtower Bible School of Gilead?
by was a new boy indid too many jehovah's witness kids get curious about wanting to go to a real college?.
they really don't give an explanation, it's like old light and new light, one reads the new light, and .
in the spirit of loyalty, the subject gets dropped, and there's no more talk about the old name again.. .

Some thoughts on the message of doom
by JeffT inone of the recent threads on the talk about the hailstone message got me to thinking.
the problem with putting out a message like that is what to do when nothing happens.
i have to think that somebody will be asking that question.

Were they so driven that they dismissed something so incredible?
Elephant in the room. In their midsts.

Watchtower claims that the 1975 fiasco was brought about by JW's speculating
WT was JW who set the date. Rhetorical language

What Will JW's Do If They Find Themselves Still Conscious after Death?
by Sea Breeze inwe all know that despite many scriptures to the contrary, jw's believe that when they die, their consciousness will cease.
my question is this: what will be the likely reaction of jw's if they find themselves conscious after death?.

Jef, It is not about JW interpreting correct or incorrect what the Bible means. I think that for the most part, JW have deciphered the Bible.
The one and only issue now is WHEN. When will God act. JW have been coming up with dates but that is not prophecy or false prophecy when the dates dod not realize but only interpretation.

RB, When Jesus restored the ear that Peter cut off, nobody noticed. Imagine Jesus resurrecting the dead and performing miracles in public view. That is why Jesus replied to the Pharisees The kingdom of God is on your midsts. So it is not a coincidence. —Albeit, my point which I highlighted with my other posts is a reply to the perception that JW out in the ministry talk about people getting destroyed and JW keeping their property. I think I’ve replied to that.

every agonising death…..
Of course I understand, Cofty.
One time in service, Cofty, I saw a totally blind man and I felt so helpless that I could do nothing for him. I thought about that this man was doomed for the rest of his life to be blind with no hope whatsoever for a cure and I figured that he might be angry with God. So, I approached him and asked him about God expecting to hear something angry from him but to my surprise the blind man said to me: “No! God helps me.” So he obviously had a relationship with God. It was touching. What also brings tears to my eyes is the gospel story when JC tells the leper I want to. But it is so devastating to see not only people but animals with their unique personalities doomed in life. It is so sad and painful. For example, a baby”s laughter. The Bible says that God is going to act someday. I believe it.

Do you perceive yourself as getting a mental impression from angels to go to specific homes,
No. The point is trust in divine backing. Which JW teach and also angelic direction. In reply to personal sneering and desire of the houses of others.

you and you buddies discuss which homes you would like to move into
Never. The angels direct to which homes people might respond. The work is done after prayer. The desire is to somehow help people and give them hope for something better and to draw them to God. The greatest joy is to help people even in the least. Like hoping your son will listen to you instead of being in danger. That is what it’s about. Who wants to deliver a message of doom to someone you want to help?
