  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  "the serpent of eden" or "paradise lost"

  some have discussed the meaning of the account in genesis 3, about the serpent.

  a pivot question has been: who lied, the serpent or jehovah?.

  i am hoping some of the norwegian people on this forum can help me out on this.. my father was born in moss norway in 1879. i would like to get some genealogy on my ancestors and maybe contact some cousins etc.. i have my grandfathers and my grandmothers name and not much else.

  for whatever reason there was little or no comunication between my father and his relatives in norway.

  although there seemed to be no rifts between them.. if you know of some internet sites in norway where i could scan birth records and such i would appreciate your help in geting the addresses.

  Need help: JW and Crystal Night 1938

  by Atreyu in

  1. social
  2. current

  at june 24, the former editor of "bergens tidende", the main newspaper of bergen, norway, wrote an article about jw versus nazi-germany.

  obviously, he has recently seen one of the videos from wts about the issue.

  the article stated that jw was the only church that raised their voice in protest against the "crystal night" in 1938, when the nazis ravaged jewish synagoges, shops and homes and sent thousands of jews to consentration camps.

  "They know we have the truth!"

  by Atreyu in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i remember a popular idea that often surfaced in informal discussions among the jws in my congregation, especially back in the 70ies:.

  (this was in norway, and please remind that the evangelical-lutheran church is a national church and that ca 95% of population are members.).

  "the priests know that we have the truth!".
