  by Alfred in

  2. beliefs

  the other day i was doing some research about "1914" for a friend on my wt cd library (spanish) and i found it quite interesting that the number of times "1914" is mentioned in the watchtower magazine during the previous 3 decades has been dropping exponentially as follows.... 1980-1989: mentioned 854 times.

  1990-1999: mentioned 492 times.

  2000-2009: mentioned 222 times.

  "Light Gets Brighter"

  by new boy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the wt says the bible warns us about false prophets (matt.

  7:15)....and tells us we can see if they if they are false, if they say that they speak for god and make predictions in his name....yet the predictions don't come true.....the society has given no less then 6 dates for end of the world, the last being 1975.. plus false prophets change their minds on what god thinks too.. resurrection of men of sodom.

  1879- they will be resurrected.

  This WT article makes me mad.... this is evil

  by dawg in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  it's bad enought that young people in the wt have to sell magizines, risk shunning when they find out the truth about the gb... but this article really makes me laugh and angry at the same time.

  the part that made me the maddest was when the father said he "conquered" the habit, lying bastard!

  2008 Jan 1st Watchtower PUBLIC EDITION searchable PDF

  by AlphaOmega in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  again, as before, many many thanks to fokyc for the scans; i've pdf'd them and made them searchable.. there is mention of 1914 in this edition and mention of 144,000. .

  i'll make no more comments until you've had a chance to read it.. we thought it might be interesting to compare the new formats (study vs public).

  Blood Transfusions are Biblically Supported

  by allpoweredup in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  to jehovah's witnesses elders: blood transfusions are biblically supported: acts 15:20 says abstain from blood but 1 samuel 14:32-5 says saul's army ate unbled meat to not starve and no verses show god not forgiving them.

  christ says god also forgave david's eating temple holy bread to survive and that god wants mercy not sacrifice.

  (mt 12) the may 22, 1994 awake tells of 26 jehovah's witness kids who died without transfusions, and by common sense in massive bleeding as in car wrecks blood expanders won't save lives http://www.ajwrb.org.

  The Retractable Dangling Carrot

  by TMS in

  some scattered thoughts about the granting or denial of privileges of service as a control mechanism:.

  this method of persuasion involving reward or punishment is so deeply ingrained in watchtower function, it is second nature.

  although sometimes subtle, sometimes blatant, everyone from new bible study to traveling overseer is subconsciously aware of the possible limiting of his official opportunities to serve god and his brothers.. .
