i just got this email.

it's strange - but some people never learn :) .

i am a jehovah's witness, i am writing to tell you that there has been .

Kent,
Can you feel the love? I am so glad it is not too late. Could you ask the JW when it is going to be too late, so I can convert at the last minute. I really do hate service.

Seriously, how much longer will those people believe that the "New System" TM is just around the corner. Hasn't the "New System" TM been just around the corner since 1878?

anybody see the new JW-commercial?

by Moxy in

jw
friends

on whtv upn 18 (channel 5) they aired the commercial put out by the congregation of jehovah's witnesses (12:38 am on monday night).

it is only airing in the north east us.. a brother who saw the commercial last friday said it was really nicely done.

it talks about family life and plays the kingdom songs in the background.. a telephone call to the society confirmed it was a trial, and it was a bonafide jw advertisement.. .

Once upon a time they used radio to broadcast their crap. Why don't they have an hour on TV, and do a regular meeting? Then the trooooooth can shine forth so brightly!

Matthew's Potter's Field Story Is a Fake

by JosephAlward in

according to matthew, jesus says that jeremiah spoke of events which would foreshadow the priests' purchase of the potter's field with the thirty pieces of silver judas obtained for his betrayal of jesus: .

"then judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders... and they... bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.

then was fulfilled that which was spoken by jeremy the prophet, saying, and they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of israel did value; and gave them for the potter's field" (matthew 27:3-10) .

Ok, now I understand the point you are trying to make. The way the Jehovah's Witnesses explain the signifigance of the 30 silver pieces is as follows. Slaves were given a price of 30 silver pieces. Judas betrayed Jesus to the priests. Jesus was sold to the priests at the price of 30 silver pieces. Again, predetermined by the Mosaic Law. When Judas returned the money, (Or actually bought the piece of land depending on which bible writer you believe.) the piece of land was bought with it. I am not sure if this is the absolute truth on the subject, but this is what the Jehovah's Witnesses teach. And not that I really care, I just like coming in this section of the board to read the debates.

Thanks for explaining your position so I could understand it better. By the time I get home from work, I have a hard time thinking too deeply.

Skimmer,
I like the idea of the society selling all of their Brooklin and Patterson property. Maybe they can donate it to the relief effort so those companies can have office space and get back to work. I know that would be the first time the society's buildings would actually do some good.

Mr. Alward,
I most enjoy your posts. It makes a person think. However, I am not the smartest person alive, and I am having a hard time understanding what your point is. Is their another way to explain this biblical error? Like you, I definitly believe the bible has a big problem with being consistant. And in some cases, flat out wrong. Please help me understand your post better.
