Earn $25,000 by pointing out a Scripture
by The Searcher in
1. watchtower
2. bible
to all my genuine brothers & sisters who can't/won't believe many of the things which cast aspersions on our "spirit-directed" governing body's teachings.

a simple, straightforward offer - i will contribute $25,000 to the worldwide work (or if you prefer, to the pedophile victims in our "organisation") if anyone can tell me where in the bible it talks of new scrolls?

just one point to keep in mind before trying to give the society's "view" - read jehovah's warning at revelation 22:18,19!!

my daughter told me about last weeks service meeting part on facebook.... the brother doing the parts asked for a show of hands who had a facebook account.. apparently a number of elders did.. (she did not put up her hand...in fact recently deleted all jws off her friends because she doesnt want them to know anything about her life).

i thought that was a dirty trick to pull.. oz.

it felt weird discussing this topic this week about this term, "share" of the levites.

.

some made comments that alluded to the financial assistance that we are currently doing towards sponsoring the bethels around the world.. i wouldn't be surprised that a new thought comes out soon about that ten percent rule.. .

in his book, in search of christian freedom, ray franz wrote that that gb members for the most part never participated in door-to-door work.

they were "too busy with more important things.

" (gee, how come that excuse wouldn't work for the rest of us?

we had that question as an item in the service meeting tonight.

the answer was that we should comply immediately whether it is a police officer or just a caretaker of a block of flats who asks us to stop.

we shouldn't answer back or dispute the issue.

i received a message on my telephone voice mail by a person who attended a jehovah's witness assembly this past weekend.
