Yes/No - Will the good news ever be preached through out the earth?
by eyeslice in
1. jw
2. friends
no - not by jehovah's witnesses.

there seems to be no clear line from the society on how much preaching needs to be done before the "end".

the "stones would cry out" principle is sometimes aluded to but i was/am a little vague on the official line.

A conversation with JW's about blood fractions
by catch22 in
1. watchtower
2. medical
being an ex-jw for some years now, we assumed that jw's would have some answers to the blood fractions allowed since they can no long claim they abstain from blood.

we recently were called on by an elder and what appeared to be a brother he was training.

they gave us blood videos, both of which spoke nothing about what was allowed.

e-watchman, thoughts from past topic
by confusedjw in
1. watchtower
2. scandals
i was looking back and a month ago there was a topic about e-watchman and who he was and why he would expose the wt with one side of his mouth and encourage loyalty with the other side.

i wonder if these might be the reasons.... 1. he himself claims to be of the anointed and truly believes he is helping to expose the "evil slave" amongst jehovah's people.. 2. by encouraging loyalty to the wt he doesn't scare away the numberous active witnesses who read his columns and send in questions.

they read and stay in the congregations.

Witness only schools
by freedom96 in
1. jw
2. friends
when i was growing up, there was a "school" in the area, that catered only to witness children.

there was probably about 60 students, mostly elementary school, but there were a few that were from high school.

i had a friend that went for a while, and i got to visit a few times.. the teaching was barely enough, and consisted of two or three classrooms.

God is editor of the WT
by Earnest in
1. jw
2. friends
in an earlier thread reference was made to a court case in which fred franz stated that jehovah god was editor of the "watch tower".

as this quotation is often used to support the allegation that jws believe the wt is inspired of god i thought it would be of wider interest to provide the relevant court record for general consideration.. the court case itself was in 1940 and was olin moyle against fred franz and others and the wtbts.

just so that you know who is who, hayden covington was attorney for the defendants and walter bruchhausen was attorney for the plaintiff.
