53Sighhhhhhhh, the Draw Close to Jehovah book again for the Congregation Bible Study.
by Stand for Pure Worship incheck out this gem from the dec 2013 km which explains why it's good to over this book a second go round.. "congregations previously considered this book during 2004 and 2005. however,for many of the approximately two million publishers who have come into the truth since then,this will be the first time that jehovahs endearing qualities have been discussed in detail.for those who studied the book before, the review will help them to deepen their appreciation forjehovahs attributes.ps.119:14".
i gotta kick out of this because i can only think of maybe two or three new ones in our congregation who weren't present when this book was first studied.
at the same time, going over jehovah's qualities isn't something new.

WHAT THE WTBATS STATED IN THE MOST RECENT WT!!!
by ADJUSTMENTS inthe recent wt states : if you don't follow, obey and listen to every word we say, and decide to change on a whim, you will be dfed and not allowed to see your family and friends!!!
we dont care if we are wrong because we will just say the light is getting brighter and not apologize, and if you don't think the light is getting brighter you will be dfed, even if it comes out years later that you were right and we were wrong you will still be dfed!!!
that's because we are just evil men not inspired by god but inspired by our own selfish hearts!!!

by I_love_Jeff induring the recruiting process, cult members use coercive methods of instilling guilt on those who are weak minded .

JWs took off from work in 1975?
by skeeter1 ina friend of mine is an electrician supervisor.
back in 1975, one of his employees was a jw.
the jw was so convinced that 1975 would bring the end of the world, that the jw took off from work (like, the first week in january) and sat on the top of a north carolina mountain waiting for armegheddon.

May Jehovah rebuke you
by Londo111 in8 despite this, these men too are indulging in dreams, defiling the flesh, despising authority, and speaking abusively of glorious ones.
9 but when michael the archangel had a difference with the devil and was disputing about moses body, he did not dare to bring a judgment against him in abusive terms, but said: may jehovah rebuke you.. the watchtower uses this passage in jude against its critics, and applies the term glorious ones toward those in the watchtower hierarchy.. however, a little research will uncover that these glorious ones are as some translations say, not human religious leaders, but angelicmajesties.
the word for speaking abusively is blasphemeo which means to speak reproachfully, rail at, revile, calumniate, blaspheme.. similarly, bring a judgment against him in abusive terms, a similar word blasphemia arises, which means slander, detraction, speech injurious, to another's good name.. here jude contrasts those who thought so much of themselves, likely gnostics, so as to blaspheme angels, to the archangel michaels approach toward the devil.

THE QUOTE THE WBATS DENIES MAKING OF 1975!!!
by ADJUSTMENTS inthe wtbats like to state "we never stated when the end will come" when they blatantly have:.
1969 "if you are a young person, you also need to face the fact that you will never grow old in this present system of things.
because all the evidence in fulfillment of bible prophecy indicates that this corrupt system is due to end in a few years.

Yes, I remember.. I lived it. I slip up on my "theocratic" lingo sometimes. Those were the days when we had a prez, none of this "rule by committee" stuff!!
