Cite one scripture in the N.T. that chargers Christians to be witnesses of / for Jehovah.....Not one.using K.I ./ WTB&TS
by smiddy3 ini think the wtb&ts publication titled "the kingdom interlinear of the christian greek scriptures" speaks for itself.. the word for word translation of the greek into english.. that publication does not even contain the name or word jehovah either in hebrew letters or greek letters anywhere in the word for word texts.. their is not one scripture in the n.t.
where christians ,followers of jesus christ are instructed to be witnesses of jehovah ,however there are something like twenty scriptures that explicitly state followers of jesus christ are to be witnesses of, for, and about jesus...

Are you sure you want to use E-Watchman as your source?
Robert King Really Is Donald Burney
It’s official. Lowly kingdom publish, Robert King, that ‘slightly disheveled-looking brother sitting at the back of the kingdom hall—you know, the one who makes the occasional, not-in-the-paragraph-comment during the meetings’ is a ‘true watchman of Jehovah’, even a prophet. Within his latest mailblog (http://e-jehovahs-witnesses-mail.blogspot.com/) you will find along with many other claims these quotes by Mr. King:
“My work is all about speaking out; declaring Jehovah's future judgments--as contained in Scripture. By definition that makes me a prophet.”
“…the prophecy confirms that even though his message is not received well because of animosity in the house of God--Jehovah's watchman is true.”
In so making such claims, it has become apparent that Robert King really is Donald Burney.
No, not literally. Not to my knowledge. It has been reported that Mr. Burney claims to be the prophet Elijah, one of the two witnesses, and the Messiah, sent to declare the wrongdoings of God’s wayward people, Jehovah’s Witnesses. And so Robert King, aka E-Watchman, has become just another Donald Burney in this regard, a self-appointed, self-proclaimed ‘prophet’ of Jehovah.
http://thetruthaboutthetruthaboutthetruth.blogspot.com/2005/09/robert-king-really-is-donald-burney.htmlE-Watchman says from your link:Jehovah’s Witnesses are, therefore, fully justified in inserting the name of Jehovah into texts that are direct quotations from the Hebrew where the name appears, and in other texts where the context warrants it.Yet, the scriptures tell us differently:Deuteronomy 4:2 New International Version (NIV)
2 Do not add to what I command you and do not subtract from it, but keep the commands of the Lord your God that I give you.
Revelation 22:18-19 New International Version (NIV)
18 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this scroll: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to that person the plagues described in this scroll. 19 And if anyone takes words away from this scroll of prophecy, God will take away from that person any share in the tree of life and in the Holy City, which are described in this scroll.
If Jehovah's Witnesses are going to "insert" a word into the scriptures, then why didn't they insert the word they claim is more accurate?Have you read the introductory material in the Interlinear Translation of the Greek Scriptures published by the Watchtower Society? On page 23 of the 1969 edition, it says: "While inclining to view the pronunciation 'Yahweh' as the more correct way, we have retained the form 'Jehovah' because of people's familiarity with it since the 14th century."Here the Watchtower is saying they want to practice "what is familiar" with people, and not what is more "accurate"!If your going to base your information on the reputation of man claiming to be Jehovah's Prophet, then your on your own!Atlantis! -

Demonic Possession
by Nihilistic Journey ini am looking for articles that i recall reading from the magazines.
i recall getting the magazines through subscription so it must have been in the 1980's.
they were "biographies" from sisters that dealt with demonic possession and attacks.

Watchtower-1987-September-1st-pgs 7-10.
See scan 1 (pg 7 in Watchtower) at bottom by picture.
Everyday life in our village was ruled by demon and ancestor worship. To bind others with a spell and bring sickness and death upon their fellowman, some people used wisi, black magic, or they enlisted the help of a koenoe (pronounced koo noo), a teaser. These teasers are believed to be persons who were mistreated by a family member. After their death, they supposedly return to the family to wreak vengeance.Actually, however, these teasers are debased demons that force people to worship them.

BluesBrother:
Yes, I think Blues hit the nail on the head with this one. A company taking an opportunity to make some money. I would think it would provide for more donation opportunities.

Got to be a company providing services for JW's I would think. If the services are at the Kingdom Hall, then somewhere along the line the Watchtower will get their share of donations. Don't you think?

Sliding fast:
At the Kingdom Hall is mentioned twice, and is that a cross or a light behind the speaker stand?

The Kingdom Hall Memorial Service Package
In this package the Memorial Service takes place entirely at the Kingdom Hall as is the case with our Funeral Service package. The key difference with this package is that we arrange for the private cremation to take place very quickly as a priority. We then ensure that the ashes are personally hand delivered back to the family or to the Kingdom Hall in a solid oak casket with an engraved plate attached prior to the Memorial Service taking place.
