  I think any religion can change some one's life to a positive way.

  by free2beme in

  i remember as a witness, how we always were told account of people getting their life changed in a wonderful way, when they became witnesses.

  we always thought, "that is what happens when jehovah comes into your life.

  " yet if you think about it, every religion i have ever encountered, has similar account of lives being changed by religion.

  greetings group .

  i saw today that stafford is going to be releasing a third addition of his jehovahs witnesses defended publication at a pre-sale price, on his web site at http://www.elihubooks.com/ .

  it will be of interest to those of us who have read his publications to see what changes will be in version 3 that were not in version 2, since the release of his three dissertations book, which was a more candid look at the history of the wt history and doctrinal changes.

  Oh, Schizm! (Daniel 11:35)

  by AuldSoul in

  schizm: here's something for you to consider, which you will no doubt disagree with, but that shows that the wts will refine its thinking on these issues:

  and some of those having insight will be made to stumble, in order to do a refining work because of them and to do a cleansing and to do a whitening, until the time of [the] end; because it is yet for the time appointed.

  Roots of human family tree are shallow (agrees with the Bible)

  by Deputy Dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  looks like the bible is right after all.. from:.

  http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060701/ap_on_sc/brotherhood_of_man_1with the help of a statistician, a computer scientist and a supercomputer, olson has calculated just how interconnected the human family tree is.

  you would have to go back in time only 2,000 to 5,000 years and probably on the low side of that range to find somebody who could count every person alive today as a descendant.

  JW's book "Let your Kingdom come"(1981) argues against history and 586/607

  by booker-t in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was given the book "let your kingdom come" by the jw's the other day that showed me why the jw's and wts are right about 607. in the appendix they bring up that historians argue against the 607 date but why jw's are right due to the bible and unreliable tablets.

  i was so confused after reading the appendix in the let your kingdom come book that i actually had a "headache" and put the book down.

  the jw's elder wants to come over and study this appendix with me trying to prove the 607 date is right.
