Thanks for the review ,Blondie.
Is it me or is the Watchtower losing control.The past few years the WTWRS are about LOYALTY LOYALTY LOYALTY and now about how husbands/wives/children should live.
Bob
(1 peter 3:7) you husbands, continue dwelling in like manner with them according to knowledge, assigning them honor as to a weaker vessel, the feminine one, since you are also heirs with them of the undeserved favor of life, in order for your prayers not to be hindered.. .
*** w06 5/15 p. 32 the value of "a weaker vessel" ***.

w/o going into all the history.dc/tmc are all about money.tmc(priests) didn't care how poor the people were or how far they had to travel.they knew the people had to offer sacrifices for the atonement of their sins.also they req'd to buy animals from the tmc.they (tmc) saw an oppportunity to make a ton of money.. wts(gb/faithful slave) select locations for their dc at the lowest price they can get.they don't care how far the r&f have to travel or the cost.req'd (sacrifice) to attend dc.also the r&f have to stay at selected wts hotels.they wts see an opportunity to make a ton of money.ex.a few years back instead of having 1dc in vcr,bc as usual(which would of cost the wts a few dollars more no deal that year) they had 5 dc in kamloops,bc over 200 hundred miles away.approx.
20k r&f had to make that sacrifical trip from vcr to kamloops.cost to r&f est.$2 million.profit est.
to wts $200k.. dc rules... stay at select wts hotels(money for wts),type of food containers, dress,badges.oh so many rules you better see km's for a ton of them.i guess that is to keep r&f on their toes or else it will weigh them down.. ps: stay tuned i have some interesting thoughts on this years dc.. bob.

They sure made a lot of reference to newspaper articles.Well remember all those WT's about news media as being lies, half truths and you can't believe them.Yeah GB I don't believe those newspaper reports in todays study, just following your advice.

Very good review---Thanks,Blondie
As you rightly pointed out,they are all over the map with their brilliant flashes of light. Q16..one of their Bible based books "the Revelation book" 70 correction in the KM and untold number in their 2006 printing.Which they didn't have the guts to say it's a revision or re-print.
The way I see it.They (the GB) is like a baby with diarrhea,no matter how many times you change it's diaper,it's always full of shit.

They are full of themselves as per your concluding comments.
They say not everyone will get a witness.Yet they no one can understand the Bible without their input..the GB/FBS ..When I read the Bible Matt.24:14 says in part.Preached in ALL the INHABITED EARTH.WHAT part of the Bible don't you understand GB/FDS.
Bob
then the end will come.compare matthew 10:23.. how you can start a bible study.
how is this done?matthew 24:45-47; luke 12:42.. *** w05 8/15 p. 22 par.
[picture on page 29] what can you do to direct the student's attention to the bible?.
Thanks for the review Blondie...So the GB/FDS is asking us to invit the public to their public meeting to lecture the public on how to study the WT which the don't have and are not suppose to have.This looks like one of those mult level marketing /pyramid schemes.

Thanks for the review Blondie..Q16,17,18.... Last week they said people went to heaven in 1918-35 to give John a vision of things on earth in our day.This week they says "What the bible says is simple and clear,the condition of the dead..they can't hear,see,speak,feel or think" Those almost 144k dead ones can't hear,see,speak,feel or think per GB/FDS in this weeks study.
Bob
just in case some of the folks may have wanted this letter for their records.
at the bottom of this letter the watchtower states, "this new arrangement for publishing the watchtower will take effect in january 2008.. it is nice to know that the watchtower feels that armageddon can be delayed until then!.
please delete if already posted!.
Let's see if I got this right:: "Jehovahs' blessing has been seen on the arrangement & the circulation of AWAKE continues to INCREASE." Pre 2006,That is say in 2005 monthly printing 45,684,000,today monthly printing 34,412,000 or 11,272,000 less per month.Old watchtower 52,878,000, NEW watchtower 52,878,000-26,439,000 PLUS 6.5 million for study edition equals total printing of 32,935,000 or 19,943,000 less watchtowers.When you add the watchtower and awake they, the GB/FBS will be printing on average 374,216,000 mags a year less.Oh ,yes GOD is speeding up the work.The advantages of this change will quickly be evident.
I guess all people don't need this BIBLE BASED information.People don't need to know bible based publication that have terms such as PIONEER.This bible based information is only for select people who the GB/FBS can read their hearts and called by a special name.
"the first resurrection" now under way!.
"-1 thessalonians 4:16.. .
over 90,434 at the memorial in 1925 at a time when all were anointed, ten years before the "great crowd" doctrine was presented in 1935. there are 120, plus 3,000 then 5,000 alone reported in the first few years of the christian congregation.. *** w67 11/15 p. 694 par.
Enjoyed your review thanks Blondie.
I was going over this study with a JW.I cannot belief their way of thinking.Ex. Q10/11 I said isn't this spiritism or spiritualism.The reply was how do you think the preaching work accomplished.Also the WT is spirit directed and the FDS is spirit directed I have no problem with that.However,I did not mention other religion feel the same way.
Just one other point, what about all the anionted before 1914 how were they slaughtered and their blood on the alter for their zealous witnessing.
Bob
it's an overglorifed memorial invitation.
it's only one page it looks like someone made it at home.
they handed them out at the service meeting.
Dang they got rid of Jesus.They will have a special talk.
Who really WAS Jesus?
