KHConf - I had no idea how big it has become!

if you are a jw in the us or canada, you probably already know about "khconf".

it is a business that has been set up (presumably by some jws somewhere) that supplies call-in numbers and teleconferencing for shut-ins to listen to kingdom hall meetings.. they have their own website: www.khconf.com.. .

what i didn't know is how much they've spread!

They are reselling this company, and probably taking advantage of bulk pricing.
At least they are up front about it. The price are reasonable, from what I have seen in the industry.

That's just too funny, I had to post on this. I went and looked it for myself.

Assignment No. 3:
Theme:Why None of the Demons Are Atheist (Jas. 2:19)
g891/8p.23ShouldYouFeartheEvilEye?
‘ TheDemonsShudder’—Why?
In Noah’s day, Jehovah dismissed disobedient angels from their positions of favor by restraining them ‘in a prison’ of spiritual darkness. (1 Peter 3:19; Genesis 6:1-4) Then, in the first century, Jesus, acting as God’s representative, expelled powerful demons at will. (Matthew 8:31, 32; Mark 1:39) And again, during this 20th century, Jesus used his God-given power to oust Satan and his demons from heaven. (Revelation 12:7-9) Hence, the demons learned the hard way that their power is nothing compared with God’s power. Yet, Jehovah is about to add another page to this record. Soon, Satan and these cast-out rebels will be thrown into an abyss for a thousand years.—Revelation 20:1-3.
How does this knowledge affect them? The Bible reveals: “The demons believe and shudder.” (James 2:19) Then, how does this knowledge affect you? Will you still fear those ‘shuddering’ demons and their human henchmen? Or will you “only fear Jehovah” by trusting fully in his invisible protection against the evil eye?—1 Samuel 12:24.
Truly, if faith moves you to untie your amulets and to strengthen your bond with Jehovah’s Witnesses in your community, you will soon join them in echoing the words of the ancient sons of Korah. They proclaimed: “God is for us a refuge and strength, a help that is readily to be found during distresses. Thatiswhyweshallnotfear.”—Psalm 46:1, 2; compare Romans 8:31.

If anyone wants to see the whole book, let me know here. I am trying not to post the link, such as Simon asked that we not do that anymore.
If someone else wants to do so I don't care.

I have the book in my hand, I am trying to figure out how to take it apart to stick the pages in the scanner. Any ideas?
I'll get you that chapter soon even if I can't get the rest.
So far I haven't seen anything that wasn;t in one of the Awake articles. It looks like it is really just a compilaltion of the past couple of years.
