  Why does the average JW remain ignorant of who write WT publications??

  by Gill in

  2. friends

  i have just been reading randy's thread on the blood issue and gene smalley and found it fascinating, but fascinating not because of the life threatening doctrine of no blood transfusions for jehovah's witnesses but because of the fact that the name of a writer of watchtower publications is such obvious public knowledge.. my parents insist that no one ever knows who wrote any of the watchtower publications and yet on this site the names of many a writer is often mentioned without a second thought.. why are the rank and file jws so ignorant of who write the publications and why do they accept this state of affairs and right and good!?.

  i have mentioned names of writers and my parents just shout that i'm believing apostate lies whereas everyone of this site knows who the writers are..

  If any rank and file do know something, it is through the Bethel grapvine and they like having that special knowledge and don't share it with many.

  That's what makes 'em SOMEbody. One of the few...the proud...the machines.

  If anyone here would actually do some research instead of just tyrading, blah blah witnesses this blah blah witnesses that, they would have seen that Wescott and Hort are the translators of the new world translation. It was actually translated by professionals.

  Yeah...professionals. Professional ghost writers. Check out the affiliation of Westcott and Hort with The Ghost Society.

  If the watchtower had included a simple footnote in the bound volume indicating there was a change I may have overlooked the whole thing, but I was not prepared to overlook what I believed was a deliberate deception.

  The importance of this issue is that it shows the false prophet they really are. Also important is that this was a study article which we as dubs studied and commented on. This was truth to us as provided by Jehovah's faithful & discreet slave. For them to extract the key words of hope and replace them with more illusory wordage without so much as a footnote (as noted by FF above) reveals the nefarious cabal the WBTS really is.

  He said that they were haughty.

  Maybe they were former JW elders.

  as some of you know, my office is a converted garage.

  the day has been fairly still here, and all of a sudden the front door started shaking like someone was trying to open it, as if it was locked.

  when i heard it start to shake i looked up and the door was moving as if someone was trying to get in.

  That'll be a tough one to find. After the dubs get their bound volumes, the marked up single issues usually go in the ol' Glenwood. Wish you the best.

  The WTS.a corrupt publishing house, disguised as god's only true religion

  many of us that have been out and any from this organization can now stand back and derive a clear picture of why this organization started and the reason it started.

  interesting to note the people who started things off such as c.t.russell and his father j. russell both were business minded professionals who both must have certainly known the assets of .

  advertising, they must have they owned 5 clothing stores.

  The ultimate deception is in the name itself...Jehovah's Witnesses. In the resolution of 1931 that established the name "Jehovah's Witnesses", Rutherford quoted Isaiah 43:10-12 and 62:2 in order to make the connection for embracing this name. Isaiah 43:10-12: "You are my witnesses," is the utterance of Jehovah, "even my servant whom I have chosen, in order that you may know and have faith in me, and that you may understand that I am the same One. Before me there was no God formed, and after me there continued to be none. I -- I am Jehovah, and besides me there is no savior. I myself have told forth and have saved and have caused [it] to be heard, when there was among you no strange [god]. So you are my witnesses" is the utterance of Jehovah, "and I am God." Isaiah 62:2: "And the nations will certainly see your righteousness, [O woman,] and all kings your glory. And you will actually be called by a new name, which the very mouth of Jehovah will designate." The problem is that verse 4 of Isaiah 62 identifies what the new name is that his people will be called, and that new name is identified in the verse as "My Delight Is in Her" (or Hephzibah). But naturally, only the verses which are relevant to establishing this "new name", Jehovah's Witnesses, are used. Sadly, the WBTS has "played the prince" over many for scores of years, utilizing those scriptures and portions thereof which serve their purpose in maintaining spiritual enslavement of their members.

  Just another example of the lengths to which greedy and unscrupulous men will go in order to continue a deadly charade for love of power and the almighty dollar.
