It's the rNWT in its study version. Last I heard (maybe 2 years ago?) they were still working on the gospels and it was only available online. It will likely not be printed. As somebody pointed out on another thread here, they can't even afford to give the Spanish-speaking Witnesses the regular rNWT, so they could not afford to print an English edition of the rNWT Study Bible.

by jwdoctrine in"go, my people, enter your inner rooms, and shut your doors behind you.hide yourself for a brief moment until the wrath has passed by.
"(isaiah 26:20).
one of the questions that seem to trouble the governing body of the jehovah's witnesses in recent year is this: what will jehovah's witnesses be doing during the destruction of babylon the great?

Maybe she's got a letter from her doctor saying it's OK? You know, like some brothers get such notes for permission to grow a beard. Or maybe she once sang with Prince and got permission that way? Maybe her BOE are all color blind? Maybe I should go and have another drink of Spatlese...

Maybe it took them some time to go back and edit out certain embarrassing things? They ARE into rewriting history, even if, like sparky notes, they have left some blunders in.

Major Article in Today's Philadelphia Inquirer on JW Child Abuse

The best overall introduction to the issue yet. Thanks for the post. It's difficult to choose the best line, but this one will do:
"the religion's leaders do everything in their power to avoid having to offer a full and public accounting of the depth of the problems that are festering below the surface. Hints of their scope only emerge in court battles and secret files that are leaked online."
There's nothing like getting to the heart of the matter.

Do any of the JWs go out door to door with a territory any more?
by Spiral ini actually had a neighbor ask me that the other day (she knows i'm an "ex" jw) and i didn't really know the answer.
i know there's a bit of cart witnessing going on (small town) and a lot of driving around to return visits.. but are they actually doing territory, not-at-homes, all of that?
the neighbor said that eight years ago, when she bought her house, the jws were by "all the time".

I recently moved to a secure building, so they do not come by, but before that I lived outside a small town and we were visited D2D 2-3 times a year. The last time was a middle-aged sister alone (so I figure a pioneer) who gave me a tract, invited me to the KH, did not have a Bible out, and held a tablet in her hand the whole time. Clearly she was not trying to get into a conversation.

My impressions of the cart witnessing
by Sour Grapes ini have watched tons of youtube videos of our exjdub friends approaching and talking to the jdub manikins at their carts as they give a great witness to the world by sipping their hot lattes, updating their social media, chit chatting to each other, and the most important thing of getting their time in, counting their hours.. when the jw's see someone approach with a camera they do several things, they will turn their backs on the person, or look at the person with a frown and act like the person isn't even there.
the witlesses refuse to answer simple, clear, and precise questions.
when i was an elder i loved to get into discussions and debates with trinitarians, priest, clergymen and those who were born again.

Someone posted a pic on this forum of a group "witnessing" at one of those carts, and it had them all deeply engrossed on their cellphones, paying no attention to anything or anyone else. I tried to find it by a search but came up empty. It was one of those pictures that says a thousand words. Anybody know the key words to find it on the search engine?

The 1993 Proclaimers book, PDF available again? (Atlantis, where are you?)
by FatFreek 2005 ina thread began some 10 years ago when our friend atlantis made a pdf available of jws modern history book.
yes, that book is available on my 2015 library cd but only certain chapters.
naturally, wt eliminated certain entire chapters and you can only guess why.

Atlantis, thanks yet again. Having the electronic version allows one to do far more than having just the hardback does (especially searches).
