  And they take pride that they don't baptize babies. Seriously, what is the difference when you baptize kids like this. This sickens me.

  RNWT: Page 1767: About 1914

  in appendix b1, there is a timeline for the message of the bible.

  on the second page of that appendix, there is a small section entitled "about 1914", what is this?

  don't you find it odd that they use the word "about"?

  As for World War 1, everything was sent into motion with the assassination of the Archduke Ferdinand in June 28 1914. As a witness, I always believed that Satan himself was behind the man that shot him. But now, that timeline just doesn't make any sense!

  You're right slimboyfat! Questions from Readers May 15 2009 confirms that!

  Why did I miss this? How does it make any sense in the minds of any Jehovah's Witnesses goes beyond me... This means that First World War would have occured with or without Satan thrown on earth. Then, how can they use that war as a proof for?

  slimboyfat :I think you have a very good guess, but, obviously, throwing Satan upon earth could not have occurred before the end of the gentile time, so this would rule out before 1914. As for First World War, it has always been used as the proof that Satan was hurled upon earth. Therefore, it could not have happened after 1914. So this still does not explains the "ABOUT" being used other then perhaps, the end of the gentile times could have ended before 1914.

  It doesn not mean "concerning" as this is clearly a timeline.

Don't you find it odd that they use the word "About"? Wouldn't anywhere between 1913-1915 qualify as About 1914? Is this the first time they do this?

  Kingdom hall constructions in developing countries

  by StephaneLaliberte in

  just about everyone heard about some brother, sister or couple go in the south somewhere to help build a kingdom hall.

  what i am wondering is:.

  since north americans clearly make more money, wouldnt it make more sense for a brother to work in his home town and give away money to pay some trades man in the south to do the work?

  Going in another country to preach makes more sense than going to build something. Those who go out on construction projects spend most of their time working on the project, not much in discussing the bible as missionaries would.

  Another though that crossed my mind is the fact that everyone knows that they went out to do this sacrifice. If they simply provided a monetary donation that would have the exact same effect, no one would know. You won’t ever have someone taken as an example in a convention where a brother would explain how he gave away 30% of his salary. On the other hand, you have plenty of people going at the front boasting about all the blessings from going on construction sites in some poor country.

  Since North Americans clearly make more money, wouldn’t it make more sense for a brother to work in his home town and give away money to pay some trades man in the south to do the work? Comparing the respective salary, wouldn’t it be something close to: 3 months for the North-American = 1 year for the South-American?

  Please note, I am not saying this is the case, but it’s an educated guess... so if I’m wrong, please correct me.

  Not Forsaking Christian Gatherings

  at the meeting this week, there was a part about placing our trust in jehovah and not worrying about food and shelter (mat 6:33).

  the part was based on the 2013 yearbook p138 and 139 where there were two examples:.

  a family went to their convention leaving their chickens unattended for a number of days, worried about if they would survive.
