on october 7, 2012, we received the following comment and inquiries:.

today there is a new post [on another website] commenting on the "new light" of the governing body about the identity of the "faithful discreet slave.

" i think this "new light" from the governing body is intended to weaken the new stand of witnesses who are partaking in the emblems.

The WT Encourages JWs to learn about the early history of the organization! - 8/15/12 WT

ironically, in today's wt, jws are encouraged to study the early history of the "earthly organization".

like them [the sons of korah], do you have a desire to study and recount the history of the earthly part of jehovahs organization?

the more you learn about gods organization and how jehovah supports his people, the more real gods kingdom will be to you.

Jwfacts-- More Lies But This Time About The Great Crowd
by Recovery in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
jwfacts has an article that explains why the great crowd must be in heaven.

i am also aware that many of these are the same arguments that stemmed from the 'awakenings at bethel' so my statements are not simply attacks of jwfact's character (since these arguments are probably not original) but rather his copy and paste of what others have said instead of verifying it as 'fact' for himself.. so here are jwfacts arguments:.

1. he shows that russell and rutherford (at some point) believed that the great crowd were in heaven.. 2. each term that describes the great crowd of revelation 7 is else used to described the anointed by the wt.

Will Hitler be forgiven just because he died????????
by The Searcher in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i cannot fathom how the vast majority of my 7.5 million brothers and sisters, (especially all who are members of the worldwide order of special full-time servants of jehovahs witnesses) can believe for one second, the "given" explanation of romans 6:7. this is what taught; .

insight book - 2p.138judgmentday - "those resurrected will not be judged on the basis of the works done in their former life, because the rule at romans 6:7 says: he who has died has been acquitted from his sin.".

therefore, the following 6 scriptures can be ripped out of our bibles, because jesus does not have the god-given right to judge any dead people - because our own death has washed our sins away!!!
