it's hard to know where to put this link to a polish book some of you older members probably read, while our newer members are seeking answers to questions the watchtower vehemently deny's!
do i put this under "jw scandals" or "jw beliefs"?
for decades without the internet many of us did not have access to all the publications written by early watchtower writers because access was hard, only men like raymond franz jr(god rest his brave soul) had the golden key for entering the library of all publications jws made.. can some of the older members remember people who sold their homes and others who bought things in the summer or fall of 1974 knowing they won't be paying for their purchases because jehovah will destroy all the creditors records when he kills them!
I remember families selling everything they had, moving and buying everything they could with credit. When it was over, it was disastrous.
Can someone provide an alternative to the download link? http://www.4shared.com/office/N5a3K3qW/armageddon_in_1975.html That site never works for me.
can anyone like "atlantis" help me find this in pdf.

Many have been helped greatly to grow in knowledge and understanding by reading some of the older publications such as “Your Will Be Done on Earth” and the “Mystery” and Babylon books. Ask audience to comment on benefits of reading such older publications. Encourage youths to benefit from such reading. (Our Kingdom Ministry, June 1984, page 2)

For some reason, the WTB&TS republished this in 1981. And only shortly after that they published their new Revelation Climax book.

this is a reminder for some, and fresh bible guidance for new arrivals to this site.. have you been "witnessing" today, or are you planning to?.
revelation 12:17 - ".......and have the work of bearing witness to jesus.".
acts 8:16 - ".......been baptized in the name of the lord jesus.".
I knew of an elderly sister Pioneer back in the mid 1980's (now dead) who would always open by saying, "We are out and about today talking about Jesus." And then she would continue with what the Kingdom Ministry had provided. It used to crawl all over the skin of the elders when they would hear her do that. They never counseled her for it though.
She really loved Jesus and was not shy to tell others about her faith in God's Son.
She was a rare bird.
allow me to begin with a clarification: when i say i am one of jehovah's witnesses, i don't mean that i am an advocate of the watchtower society or a devotee of some of its more controversial false teachings.
i mean that i am a christian, a disciple of jesus christ dedicated to jehovah god, and who remains in union with my brothers and sisters who make up the family of faith that globally refers to itself as jehovah's witnesses.
some totally understand the distinction between the family of brothers and sisters and the corporate organization known as the watchtower society (wts).
i remember this making the rounds and people swearing by it.
knew someone at the concern and whatnot.
how does this crap come up?.

One day she drops her bible on the floor and it lay open to the very page that talks about anointed ones. That was her sign.
Stealth, isn't that akin to bibliomancy?

There was one I knew who was DF'd because of hiding information for more than 12 years. His spouse, also a Witness at the time, was a well paid secretary for a church two towns over. He kept this a secret for years until someone spotted her in a parking lot. Both were DF'd.
An elder on the judicial committee told me that she flat out refused to give up the job because the money was too good and she needed to support the family since her anointed husband did not have a job. His duties with the Org. were too demanding, and otherwise the family would be destitute. Both drove very nice cars and seemed to have a new one every year.
