gb recent presents new book "based ezekiel" - pure worship restored.this book also provide into jw-borg site and jw-lib too, but only english.as examle, spanish - it`s second largest language into us and america continents, but has no translated into it.do you have any idea why this could happen?
they hide something, or just did not have time to translate (but previously published in all major languages at the same time).
I remember when the magazines in my language, Dutch, were printed a few months later then the English version die to translating time in the 70's.
So English speaking witnesses could believe something else when new light was 'presented. Can you imagine that was possible?
I never understood more versions of truth were possible at the same time...

"stressful events-such as when a loved one dies or is disfellowshipped...".
Sometimes I think the writers want to open up the eyes of the witness.

i think there will be a change in the 144000 belief.
too many witnesses think they have a heavenly hope.
maybe 1914 will be discarded too.. what is your watchtower prediction?
- pioneer requied for all ms and elder;
- no paper issues;
- 144.000 symbolic instead of current doctrine;
- heavenly instead of earthly paradise

there have been many but i had a total melt down at the end of sophie's choice.
i hadn't cried in years before i saw that movie in in 1982. i was still very much a jw at the time.
i have no idea where the pain and sorrow came from, maybe it was the fact there are things people have gone through that we have defied all reason logic.

going past a 'new-age' shop today i stupidly said to my most 'uber' wife, do you want a reading?
" ..not a good idea.. oh dear.. she opened up correcting my every other word and brought in a stream of jw speak and now many hours later is still steaming under an acute cloud of sol.. oh god keep me from being so stupid; cut out my tongue, glue my teeth together.
aaarrgh!
In my case sometimes I have a buddy, but when family presure pops up, buddy is less buddy.
Never know the real thoughts of buddy.
It feels not good.

you've likely heard all this before, but i had to laugh (silently) at the public talk today.. he focused on how close we are to the end.
we're not only in the last days, but we're in "the final part" of the last days.. also, we are nearing "the end of the final part of the last days".
he didn't read any scriptures backing up how the last days are broken up like this.. i went today since relatives es were visiting, but it was more entertaining than usual.. as well, the gb isn't warning us about armageddon, rather they're mainly warning about the great tribulation, which is "very, very, close!
Hete someone David recently "I smell peace and security".
Next time I will ask him how this smells.
