i've been updating the links at my web site and i'm working on the gtjbrooklyn pages now.
what would you say are the several biggest changesin the jws organization/rules in the last five years or so?
Thank`s talesin for those clips . My mind boggles when I see Lett on the screen , I mean to say cant these other G.B.members see what a liability he is to the organization ? He is not only a joke , he is an embarrassment to the organization .( So in that case keep him on , maybe more people will wake up )
And Morris trying to get younger ones to be baptized , knowing full well that once baptized they are emotionally blackmailed to the organization , shame on him .

the 1950 september 15th watchtower is now complete and this will finish the 1950 watchtower bound volume.
a big thank you to jaydee for all of his hard work of scanning the watchtowers into jpg files which i received and converted into pdf files and made them searchable.
jaydee worked day and night to get these files finished for us and i really appreciate his kindness... we only had to darken out one name on one shipping label.
Pardon my ignorance , but what is the point of producing all these bound volumes ? from years ago !?
The excuse of J.W.`s is , it does not matter what was printed years ago , that`s " old truth " what we have now currently is the "new truths " because the light gets brighter every day
Jehovah`s Witnesses are not interested in what was published years ago , it is only what the G.B. is saying today that counts.
And in a couple of years time that wont count either , because their will be new revelations , new truths to be considered .
I hope all your hard work has not been in vain , maybe I`m missing something , clue me in .

romans 13 : 1-4 clearly states that the superior authorities are an arrangement from god , defy them and you are working against the arrangement of god at your own peril.. christians are to be obedient to the superior authorities ,"for their is no authority except by god , the existing authorities stand placed in their relative positions by god .therefore he who opposes the authority has taken a stand against the arrangement of god ".
matt.
4 :8-10 shows that all the kingdoms and governments are under satan`s control , jesus never disputed that claim .
Is their a get out of jail card clause with obeying or not obeying Rom. 13 : 1-7 ?
And if so where is it ? What scripture ?
My understanding of the above text is to obey the Superior Authorities because they are placed in their relative positions by Jehovah , and to disobey them , the Superior Authorities , you are going against the arrangement of Jehovah because he put this system in place.
If you are not doing bad deeds , then comply with the Superior Authorities
If you are doing bad deeds , be in fear of the Superior Authorities .
Because it is Jehovah`s avenger.

..."we are"--at this point i began shaking my head no--"stopping by to share a scripture.".
she had the wt and bible in her hand.. "please do not come to this house ever again.".
"ok we will put you on the do not call list.
For me it all depends upon what mood I`m in at the time.Not that they ever call that often.

this is a pretty good example of the limitations of "bloodless medicine", and why the informed choice should always be "blood conservation" medicine, which retains the safety net of blood transfusion when medically required.
sadly, the watchtower fails to inform jws regarding these important limitations, and their potentially disastrous consequences.. http://www.dailyreportonline.com/id=1202750028414/jury-awards-100k-to-family-of-jehovahs-witness-who-died-after-refusing-blood-transfusion?mcode=0&curindex=0&curpage=3&slreturn=20160118223352.
The Medical Profession respects the wishes of the patient when treating her and she dies ,then the family sues the Medical Profession ? And they win ?
Their is something drastically wrong with the system when that happens.

what would you say are the several biggest changesin the jws organization/rules in the last five years or so?
The dumbing down of the religions publications .
The idolatrous aspect of JW.ORG
The constant begging for money.
Exulting the G.B.members to the " Faithful Discreet Slave Class"
Embracing the Internet
Embracing TV Evangelism
Vin Toole , G. Jackson , caught out lying under oath at the A.R.C ,( yet to see if any charges are laid against them.)

saw this on reddit it was posted by user morgan_sparlock .
to me honestly this would of been prohibited 10 years ago, but now every dub is obsessed with this website, it's everywhere even a damn iphone cover... ooh they don't approve of idolatry ooh no they don't accept cross veneration thats bullshit to me!!!
its getting to a point that they are venerating this website (company logo) it's their version of the cross.
Aren`t their copyright laws against this sort of thing ? unless of course the W.T. has sanctioned this for a cut of the profits.
Lets face it , 8 million J.W.`s plus their relatives who are fringe dwellers , those that only attend the memorial once a year , another 10 million or so , a cut of the profits is not a bad business tactic.

Why haven`t Marvel Comics or whoever made a movie about Captain Marvel ?, when I was a kid I enjoyed comics about him more than I did about Superman , and I did like him also.
A kid on crutches that uttered the word SHAZAM and he became Captain Marvel to fight all manner of evil.like Sylvania ?
