  JW Judicial Hearings vs. the US Judicial System (redux)

  by Farkel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  since our fellow member "yknot" is posting a serial commentary on the latest "flock" book, i thought this would be of interest for some of you.

  5:20)" - flock, unit 5(c), page 119. note that the flock book states that the defense witnesses must be excused after giving their testimony, so the rest of the hearing is "secret" to even them.

  " - flock unit 5(b) page 111.. in the case of this kind of circumstantial evidence, the accused is presumed guilty, not innocent.

  Free lectures on the New Testament, online from Yale College

  by moshe in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i have been watching the youtube videos about the new testament( also covers the gospel of thomas) and i find them very enlightening.

  perhaps former jws can stop worrying what jehovah/jesus might do to them, they will be able to stop worrying about who has the true religion and find out, is aguest a sage or something else?.

  also, these videos might help an ex-jw find a new way to get a spouse out of the kh, without directly attacking the wt organization.

  Are Animals Resurrected?

  by Cold Steel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the jws visited me again today, and i have to admit i was surprised when i asked them if they thought animals would be resurrected.. now i ask this question from a lot of different religions.

  most often i ask if people think they have spirits, but since jws don't believe people have them, why bother asking about animals?.

  but i did ask about resurrection, which is the next best thing...i guess.. to my surprise they said no!

  "Jehovah Unmasked" by Nathaniel Merritt Now Available as Free PDF

  by BabaYaga in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i ordered this book and read it a few years ago, and it resonated greatly with me.

  i don't agree with all of it, but i haven't found many books that i agree with 100%, particularly those dealing with the bible.. i have recommended this book before on this forum for those questioning the logistics of the bible (genesis in particular) and i have just discovered that nate has offered the book now as a free pdf.

  (incidentally, nate used to post here at jwd/jwn a few years ago, but that was before my time.).

  2010 - Year of the Governing Body?

  by lepermessiah in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  let me explain by what i am getting at without sounding like captain obvious!

  i am actually excited about this since i think this could help assist a ton of people out of this organization!!.

  i believe that the governing body is stepping up efforts to emphasize their unconditional rulership - every wt study article seems to make reference to their authority.

  UNITED NATIONS CHARTER read in all congregations at beginning of SPECIAL TALK

  by Life is now in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  then 1 thessalonians 5 read about 'peace and security'.

  the speakers instructed not to embellish the statements.. 'noble sentiments' was mentioned about the un charter but no criticism.. followed by the need for god's kingdom.. it sounded more like an advert for the un to me.

  did anyone else hear it?
