  It has always been a business: Miracle Wheat Investigation highlights WT Finances in 1911

  by ILoveTTATT2 in

  i am still not done with the miracle wheat article... there's just so much information to process!

  i already did the summary, and the new information that i have doesn't change my conclusion: the entire scandal happened because russell was very gullible and didn't check with government agencies to see if the wheat was legitimate or not.

  he went into a business venture on which he knew nothing about.here's some interesting stats about the finances of the watchtower back in 1911:it received, from the sale of books and donations, $150,000.

  Ilovettatt, how much more there is to this story other than what was printed in their magazines is probably a mystery. There also appears to be something about miracle rye as well.
  I don't think they were being very honest about a brother called John Bonnet and his farm.http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/52873/secret-corporations

  1950 Watchtower Bound Volume now Complete!

  by Atlantis in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the 1950 september 15th watchtower is now complete and this will finish the 1950 watchtower bound volume.

  a big thank you to jaydee for all of his hard work of scanning the watchtowers into jpg files which i received and converted into pdf files and made them searchable.

  jaydee worked day and night to get these files finished for us and i really appreciate his kindness... we only had to darken out one name on one shipping label.

  Cheers and well said Moggy.
  I've been reading some of the old mags. They are so easy to flick through and very clear.

  I don't either ShirleyW but personally I think it is very contrived and motivated by self promotion.

  she is michal, her father acts like saul, and i'm david.. i do care for her since she's vulnerable and weak, i consider myself for her protector a personal kevin kostner.but this is very time consuming, nerve wracking endeavour.. she acts childish, insensitive and insecure, i have spent *** dont' know how many sleepless *** nights, in the last 3 months we're playing cat and mouse, cold and warm & i'm fed up.. this kind of irresponsible behaviour is not yet written in the manual for me to look for an answer.. but finally i do know what i need.

  i will look for my bathsheba and settle down..

  Please stop and consider that as a JW there always comes the day when they will give up on a bible study and in that situation their lives are at stake. Also consider how happy you will make her father. You might even get promoted to an MS.

  Given that your like Kevin Kostner, it would be natural that she would be over the moon when you flatter her. I can't understand why there aren't a whole flock of females drooling over you.
