the kool aid editions of the watchtower...is it pretty much every edition now?
lol..
Oh...more propaganda huh?
For sure the witness-only version has had a bunch of "follow the GB/faithful slave no matter what" in it. I think the society may be so deluded that they think they are somehow making the ordinary dubs feel special that they have their "own" watchtower.

Why did they come out with the 'special study edition?' I thought it was to save paper, but is it something more than that.
It didn't really save all that much paper - there are still the two issues. People taking fewer copies of both probably saved more paper.
Sounds to me like they just wanted to put stuff in the JW study issues that they didn't necessarily want the interested public to read.
given the warnings that "those who follow the beast" go into destruction....why would anyone follow the beast unless they thought they had no choice, or unless there was some gain to be had personally?.
could it be because many are misled into believing the beast is their salvation in some way?.
why would they cling to the scarlet robe of the harlot?.
Very nice picture.
if god can read our hearts, why does he need an additional 144,000 creatures in heaven along with the already existing myriads of angels, to assist jesus in separating the sheep from the goats?
is there any scriptural answer for this that you know of?.
LOL @ JWoods.
You are an irreverent hoot!
But what I wrote there will stand up to scientific scrutiny, unlike practically everything else about new-age numerology on this thread.
Only Undercover's remarks about mescal induced dreamlike states make equal sense.
if so - without divulging any names , approximately how much was donated to the wt society ?
if you are aware of approximate amounts.
as many know the wt society yearly puts out calls in their publications for witnesses to donate trust funds, wills, inheritances, estates, jewelry, cars and whatever else they have to promote the aleged " kingdom interests " in furthering the " good news " around the world.. personally i feel it's all been a scam to continue exercising control over witnesses by influencing them to financially deprive themselves so the wt society can continue it's operations.
I knew a family in Oklahoma City that had a prominent lumber business - they were solicited by the society and the senile old lady at the head of it left everything to the society. This left her nephew out in the cold, and he became a truck driver.
Famous society lawyer Hayden Covington handled the paperwork.
This was done prior to my parents starting up with the witnesses in 1962 - I would guess in the 1950s. The amount of money was substantial for the time - probably 1 to 2 million. The left out nephew told be about it later - he pretty much left the witnesses over it.

My Ferrari has a perfect harmonic balance based on 12 - (cylinders). They are rotated in two banks of 6 at 180 degrees. However, they are not a true boxer as they are paired two by two on six individual crank throws. This does not matter, as two inline sixes are still in perfect primary and secondary balance.
My Porsche also has a perfect harmonic balance based on 12/2 - (6 cylinders). These are rotated in two banks of 3 at 180 degrees, and are individually paired in opposing (6) crank throws. The Porsche also has 12 spark plugs (2 per cylinder), thus again conforming to the magic 12.
So, based on these important numerical values, I am sure that these cars will eventually go to automotive heaven.

You live in 4D, and the universe around you is in 12D and beyond. Anything out of 4, however, is a mystery. Time is not time, and reality is multi-layered. Past, present and future are combined, and there is no linearity. Therefore spiritual information is often given in numerical energetic code. Your DNA has the same thing, as someday you will see.
Come, Undercover - come and follow the great numerical energetic code - your DNA is telling you to do this...someday you will see...

Great. Now I fully understand string theory.

Does anything make much sense when you're on mescaline?
Probably only more mescaline -

144,000 is a vibrational frequency, the number of harmonic resonance, required to make the "ascension" from a 3-dimensional carbon-based body to a 4-dimensional crystalline-based body, otherwise known as a "light body". This is the kind of body Jesus had after his resurrection, where he could walk through walls but was still able to eat regular food with Doubting Thomas. If you're willing to accept that there may be intelligent life outside of the Earth, then trust me when I tell you that they don't use a decimal number system because it doesn't work very well in universal mathematics. Human DNA has twelve strands, not two. Scientists have not been able to figure out the "junk" part of DNA because they're using the wrong number system. They have to use base-12 because that's the way the universe is designed. This is why the zodiacal night sky is separated into twelve parts. The human body is a reflection of the universe and so it has twelve chakras (the middle five have front and back openings) to interact with those 12 energies.
With all due respect, there is NOTHING in that quotation that makes any scientific sense.
