i am a big tennis fan and today i watched serena williams win the australian open, one of the four tournaments which make up the pinnacle of achievement in the tennis world, the grand slam.

in her victory speech the first thing she said was that she thanked her god jehovah for the victory.

now i know that rumours have circulated for a long time as to whether she is a baptised witness or not, but she is definitely associated with witnesses .

It's kind of a mock humility taught by religious leaders. Give glory to God by thanking him, so you don't think too much of your accomplishments.

hello all... i currently studying the bible teach book and i'm just curious what information does the study conductor record about the student and is it passed on??

and they keep on saying "the truth" which is starting to get on my nerves.

lol.

I would recommend "studying" Jehovah's Witnesses, before you study with Jehovah's Witnesses.

Surprise ! Surprise ! 2015 Arrives and NO Armageddon or World's " End " - Go Figure

i guess 99.9 % of ex-jw's here could have predicted as much .

armageddon didn't happen in 1914. it didn't happen in 1925. it didn't happen in 1975. and it did not happen in 2014. since the wt society first predicted a world's end when their organization started in 1879 - 126 years have passed which according to any dictionary in any human language 126 years comprises of 4 separate generations each totaling 30 years each.

plus 6 years into a 5th generation.

I will go out on a limb here and say that each of us will experience our own Armageddon, eventually.

Is this why the book is grey?

by Doug Mason in

the 2014 revised edition of "what does the bible really teach?

" uses the text of the 2013 nwt.

i therefore assume this is the reason for the grey colour of the "bible teach" book.. examples of the adjustments appear at pages 216 and 217 of the book:.
