article: holy spirits role in the outworking of jehovahs purpose.
13 third, holy spirit is at work in bringing bible.
Agonus, I have to agree with you there that I just can't imagine them trying to explain that to a "study" or a "newly interested one".
I am meeting with my JW on Monday. I am planning to ask for an explanation of generation. Wonder which version I'll get? This could be interesting.
jehovah's name people have delighted in recent refinements in understanding coming through god's slave class at the direction of holy spirit.
these adjustments in thinking have at times required humility and reasonableness to be exhibited by longtime servants of jehovah.
consider, for example, the recent information showing that we could not put an exact timetable on the calling of those to serve along with christ jesus in the heavenly kingdom.
Almost had me.
in 1969 roy d. goodrich published a book, "demonism and the watch tower" that contains information about strange electronic medical devices used by "doctors" at brooklyn bethel.. it appears that rutherford himself supported and endorsed the use of these quack electronic devices that also had a tie in with occultic practices and beliefs.. roy goodrich complained so much publicly about these occultic devices being used at bethel that he was disfellowshipped!.
this book today is impossible to find.
has anyone here seen a copy of it?.
Here's an interesting page about it.
I thought I read in this thread that it wasn't on their site, I looked, I found it. I posted it here. The date time stamp was questioned as to when it was posted. I explained what GMT means. That's it, just trying to add to the board.
GMT = Grenwich Mean Time. East coast is I think -5 this time of year.
I thought I read that the earthquake wasn't on their site.

When the overlapping definition of generation wears out they can always look to the Six Degrees of Separation generation definition.
recently i asked my wife: if our son one day comes home and says "well, i just joined new religion, we study a publication there, that iam not allowed to show anybody..." how would you feel?
does it sound like a cult?.
wife admitted: that would be scarry..... me: so why do jw have secret wt edition to study, that noone else is supposed to get?.
Or this takes you to the digital download

Yeah, I posted that on the other thread.
so as not to hijack other threads, i still can't understand why people keep referring to the new, "members only" watchtower as "secret?".
if you go to the meeting, you will get a copy.
if you have a family member, you can get a copy.
They are available for download on the JW site.
