publication, that is?.

i just found all scripture is inspired of god and beneficial in storage.

i enjoyed studying it, as well as make sure of all things, hold fast to what is fine.. our thinking has changed, of course, but, back then, did you have a wt publication you especially liked?.

I still have the Aid book around somewhere.

Recently, I went to the Bible Chronology section and made corrections.

LOL.

Aid to Bible Understanding.

The summer of 1973, while heavy with child, I read it through from Aaron to Zuzim.

JW's And Their Education Level

by Yesu Kristo Bwana Wangu in

i was thinking about this.... in my congregation, i was literally the only one with universitary education, out of a cong from around 110 people.... and we're very close to a very big university, which makes it even weirder.. on the other hand... sooo many here with their own business, mostly small cleaning businesses.

cleaning windows, or cleaning somewhere else... painters.... all have jobs that do not require any education level, cos they never had a decent education.. how is the composition of the jw people/congs that you know about?.

how many painters... cleaners... compared to people with jobs that require higher education?.

I have 2 years of college - quit due to bad nerves.

My youngest daughter, a devout JW, has a University degree.

A nephew, also a JW, posseses a PhD from Harvard.

We are strong on education.

Who Is the Archangel Michael? "evidently" Jesus

by NikL in

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?.

snowbird

So did I, DD.

I researched a lot of extra-Biblical writings and came to the conclusion that Michael is one of 7 archangels.

Four of these stand in the very presence of God: Gabriel (Luke 1), man-like; Michael, lion-like; Phanuel, eagle-like; Raphael, bull-like. This is confirmed at Revelation 4.

The WT HAS to know this.

on my commute past 25 columbia heights, i noticed that the large 25'x25' jworg sign has come down.. i'm sure the sentiments of the entire brooklyn heights neighborhood are something like, "don't let the door hit you on the way out.

".

Sorry.

Wrong sign.
