  Hi Dozy, it's a very poorly written article.

  Is the place currently, now, a Kingdom Hall? Or was it at one point a Kingdom Hall? It is not clear.

  Papal Bulla - Latest Metal Detecting Find

  by cofty in

  1. social
  2. physical

  i was out detecting this evening for an hour after work and found this amazing bit of history.. it is a lead seal that originated on a document from pope martin v at some time between 1417 and 1431. these official documents were called papal bulls and were dispatched to all the parishes in the medieval empire.

  this example has later been made into a spindle whorl which is why it has a hole through the centre.

  lead whorls were used before spinning wheels were invented to make yarn of sheep's wool.. the inscription "spaspe" stands for "sanctus paulus sanctus petrus" and the two busts are of paul and peter.. the reverse has "martinus pp.

  by lusitano o tuga in

  where is the source ???.

  is it that a big snowstorm will stop the trial in the supreme russian court and the case will be postponed?.

  the modern elijahs prayed to the true god and he heard or he will hear and he will bring a great blizzard(snowstorm) in moscow or st. petersburg and prevent judgment against jehovah's witnesses?

  Russian Earthquake Forces Putin to Reconsider – Won’t Ban Jehovah’s Witnesses

  In a stunning reversal of events, Vladimir Putin had an emergency meeting with all UN members and made a proposition unbanning Jehovah’s Witnesses worldwide.

  After the devastating 6.9 earthquake in eastern Russia, and after receiving nearly one metric ton of letters from Jehovah’s Witnesses worldwide, Putin changed his mind and decided not only to not ban Jehovah’s Witnesses in Russia, but proposed to the UN to remove all restrictions from Jehovah’s Witnesses worldwide.

  Surprisingly, Jehovah’s Witnesses were not pleased.

  David A. Ssholian, the spokesman for Jehovah’s Witnesses, said that “This reversal is a disaster for Jehovah’s Witnesses worldwide. We just can’t be unbanned everywhere, that would be a severe blow for our faith.”
  
  When asked why they were unhappy, Ssholian responded, “Jesus said in Matthew 5:10-11, “Happy are those who have been persecuted …. “Happy are YOU when people reproach YOU and persecute YOU and lyingly say every sort of wicked thing against YOU”… which means that if we are NOT being persecuted, that would make us sad. We simply don’t have any reason to say we are the only true religion if we are free to preach everywhere. We NEED persecution.”
  
  The Governing Body of Jehovah’s Witnesses has decided to make a new campaign, begging the Russian government to ban them. Letters must be written before April 1st, 2018, also known as April’s Fool’s Day, 2018.

  The recommended letter states:
  
  “We ask, nay, we beg, the dictatorship of Vladimir Putin to please ban our religion. We need persecution. Please don’t let the Mormons or the Scientologists or the Muslims be the only religion that is persecuted in Russia. They are NOT the one true religion, we are.
  
  Although we don’t consider ourselves to be a cult, if it helps to be banned, then yes, we will admit we are a cult.
  
  What does a cult have to do these days to be banned?
  
  We could add more frivolous reasons to be disfellowshipped.
  We could write about how horrible the dictatorship is in Russia.

  We could go back to prohibiting all blood fractions, AND transplants, AND vaccines.
  
  Please, let us know what we can do to be happily banned.
  
  Sincerely,
  
  (Write down your name and phone number and address. Don’t write any of the Governing Body’s names or phones or addresses. We don’t want to be persecuted, just you rank-and-file members).”
  
  It remains to be seen if Putin will listen to the millions of new letters he receives. Meanwhile, stock of FedEx (NYSE:FDX) soared to 205.20USD after the announcement.

  Outspoken exJWs the are shunned . Outspoken exMuslims tend to end up dead.

  This is why Simon has said previously that any and all exMuslims do need as much support as they can get.

  Found a new difference between the old NWT and the new one...

  yesterday i read jeremiah 8-11 because that's what was studied in the clam.

  i am in a different city and decided to go to the meeting to check it out and possibly ask the witnesses some questions and see how they treat a "newcomer".anyways...nwt, 1984 version:.

  (jeremiah 10:13) 13 at [his] voice there is a giving by him of a turmoil of waters in the heavens, and he causes vapors to ascend from the extremity of the earth.

  So... essentially, saying nonsense (lightning turning into rain) or other nonsense (there being "channels" for the rain).
  
  Either way, it's stupid.
  
  But doubly stupid to go with a rendering that pretty much no other Bible or translator of the "original" considered to be the correct one, and go with supossitions of someone who wrote an article in a theological journal in the 1950's...

  Have you ever believed something that turned out to be wrong?

  by slimboyfat in

  apart, of course, from the obvious example of believing the evidence-free assertion of the governing body to be god's representatives on earth.

  not to side-step that issue, but i wonder if it might be interesting to relate that huge mistake to other things i've been wrong about and how they compare and contrast with the big one.

  a couple of examples of things i was wrong about:.

  Which MS is only 50 years removed from the original and contains Kyrios?

  
  
  

  I made a mistake. Not 50 years but 100-150 years. See here for P46, which is 150 years removed (200AD): http://www.tetragrammaton.org/tetrapdxf.html P52 is the earliest (125AD) but it's too small to contain parts where it is Kyrios in the text and "Jehovah" in the NWT. There are three texts, some P.Oxy., 2nd century, but don't contain Kyrios in the Then there is P75, from 175AD, which MOST DEFINITELY contains "Kyrios" where the NWT has "Jehovah". There is sufficiently early evidence to disprove Watchtower's theory that the NT had "Jehovah" in early manuscripts and then around the 3rd or 4th century, it was removed. About the Oxy papyrii, thank you for that info, I didn't know. Guess we will have to wait and see if there is some evidence proving the Witnesses right... Even if evidence like that appeared though, it wouldn't make me want to go back to the witnesses, since that evidence would completely destroy anyone's faith in the Bible. Something as important as God's name taken out with no trace for over 2000 years???
