"[God] is a person".
- The Watch Tower.
this is new to me.. i was always taught things like "god is everywhere".. now the folks in warwick are tearing that into shreds with their spiritual enlightenment.. https://www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/questions/god-omnipresent/.
god is able to see everything and to act anywhere he chooses.
(proverbs 15:3; hebrews 4:13) however, the bible does not teach that god is omnipresent—that is, present everywhere, in all things.
"[God] is a person".

i think the finished mystery book probably contains the stupidest beliefs ever recorded!
almost any prophecy publication but especially anything to do with revelation, is unbelievable!
.
God lives in the Pleiades.

uk version.
Hey people, don't be so negative only pointing out that there are no concessions if one wants to use this arrangement to take care of a ill family member.
All of you haters did not read this paragraph?
"Special consideration should also be granted to pioneers who fall short of the annual hour requirement if they serve in construction oversight, as Assembly Hall overseers, or on Hospital Liaison Committees, Patient Visitation Groups, Disaster Relief Committees, or Convention Committees. All such assignments are forms of sacred service. The spirituality, availability, and willing spirit of pioneers allow them to support Kingdom interests in a special way."
See? IS all about priorities. To hell with sick people, let's built!!!!!!!

Posted on the wrong thread.
i'm reading a book called "what to do when they knock" that goes over the jw book "what does the bible really teach?".
it points out that the "bible really teach" book, on page 218, makes a bit of a point about there being only one archangel.
it says michael is "the archangel" and emphasizes that "the" means only one.
The WT is dead-set on the "Jesus-is-Michael" thing. And that's the end of that. No matter how many proofs you bring to the table, they just don't care.
They will change this stupid believe ONLY if somehow it affects the $$ collection. I doubt it would.
front of jw.org has this article.... https://www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/questions/archangel-michael/.
i am at work right now so can't examine it very close but was just curious what some of you more knowledgeable ones think of it?.
"Evidently". The end. Why ask a question then?
But let's try:
Daniel 10:13:
But the prince of the Persian kingdom resisted me twenty-one days. Then
Michael, ONE of the chief princes, came to help me, because I was
detained there with the king of Persia.
As in: There-is-more-than-one-chief-prince, hence, there are more angels with the same rank as Michael.
Stupid-dumb WT.
jerome over on discuss the truth has picked up on something interesting.. in the july watchtower on page 28 of the article entitled “winning the battle for your mind” the following statement is made “keep in mind that satan does not want you to think clearly or reason things out well.
because propaganda is likely to be most effective, says one source, if people… are discouraged from thinking critically.”.
the quote comes from a book entitled: “media and society in the twentieth century: a historical introduction by lyn gorman, david mclean" the watchtower however, chose to leave out a portion of the quote.. the full quote is "therefore, it is likely to be most effective if people do not have access to multiple sources of information and if they are discouraged from thinking critically.. the following sentence which the watchtower also decided was best not to include states,.
The thing is that the quote fix them even edited. "discouraged from thinking critically", anyone?
