I have had several studies with several J.W.s as I am very interested in theology and most of my in-laws are J.W. On many occasions I asked to see the very complicated way that the year 1914 was obtained. Everyone of my studies told me not to worry about it, that it involves much complicated math and it has been checked over and over and is right. Do J.W.s know where this date actually comes from? It comes from the internal measurements of the Great Pyramid's passage ways, done by Charles Russell and published in his research. Check out http://neirr.org/pyramidscheme.htm. Why do J.W.'s not mention this? Are they not aware of their own history, their pyramid obsessed founder? His tombstone is even a pyramid. I realise that The Watchtower seem to be trying to distance themselves from this date now, as it is not mention very often anymore, but tell me why it has been used all these years? 6 million Jehovah Witness didn't bother to check this date out for themselves or were discouraged to do so. How many people would join this religion if they knew this, so called complicated date, only involved a tape measure, a crazy man and a trip to Egypt.

My husband's family are JW. They don't have much to do with me because I have been branded stubborn with regards to their teachings. The first book they studied with me was The Divine Name That Will Endure Forever. I had to use Jehovah's name. I will be saved by using Jehovahs name, it must be sanctified. I immediately saw contradictions. They admitted in literature that Jehovah is a mistransliteration and that Yahweh is more correct. So if they are so concerned about using god's real name then why not be Yahweh's Witnesses. This I would respect them for. They told me to just ignore that part. I told them under their rules of ' all that call upon Jehovah will be saved' I would not be saved because I would be calling on no one, as god's name isn't Jehovah. I also told them that there is actually a group called Yahweh's Witnesses. They really didn't like this.
Read The Divine Name That Will Endure Forever via The Watchtower website. Hilarious.
These two quotes from the brochure are complete contraditions of one another. Don't they have editors at Bethal?
*"Hence, the sanctification of God's name is far more important than any other issue."
It later goes on to say:
*"Thus it is evident that the original pronunciation of God's name is no longer known. Nor is it really important. If it were, then God himself would have made sure that it was preserved for us to use."
