Our own blood circulates freely within the veins of our bodies. If transfused blood is supposed to be feeding, what about our own blood without transfusions? It is preposterous to believe that the purpose of the circulatory system is to feed us. If it were, then Jehovah Himself would not be upholding His law of us not eating blood. After all, that's the way He designed us.

What is up with the epidemic of sinkholes?
by EndofMysteries inthis is definitely not a thing where media is paying more attention, they are definitely on the rise.
too bad the gb didn't think of foretelling that years ago haha.
i have only 2 theories, 1 is perhaps it's due to pesticides and acid rain, and if that is the case, then it will get real bad.

Here in Florida sinkholes have been occurring for eons. The whole state has lots of sand and lots of limestone and lots of rain which causes erosion and either gradual or sudden collapses of ground. There are several sinkholes in Leon County, where I live. We even have a lake here, Lake Jackson, which periodically drains and disappears. It takes a long time for the rains to replenish it. I think we hear more about sinkholes now because we have an increase in population and instant communication, but I think it is debatable as to whether they are on the increase in Florida.

Wouldn't the "faithful and discreet slave" be the only one to tell us if a war is "commanded by Jehovah"? Now, that's a scary thought!

It must have been an issue at one time. The Informant of July, 1938, p. 20 contains an article entitled "Allegiance and Citizenship"
It states:
"The Society receives many letters concerning the subject of allegiance and citizenship. Many of the brothers ask: Shall I take out citizenship papers?
The taking out of citizenship papers is a personal matter. It is not the province of the Society to say whether you should or should not apply for citizenship. All should decide for themselves.
Is it wrong to take the oath of allegiance to this country? Taking the oath of allegiance means that one renounces his obligations of citizenship to the country of which he had been a subject, and assumes the obligations of a citizen of this country. Allegiance to a country is not incompatible with Christianity. Paul was a citizen of the Roman empire and claimed his rights as such. He therefore recognized his obligations as a citizen. Natural-born citizens owe the duties of citizenship, and no Christian is required to renounce such citizenship. We see no reason why one desiring to assume citizenship in this country should not take the oath of allegiance.
Those applying for citizenship are asked the question: "Are you willing to bear arms in defense of the country?" A Christian will obey the law of God which prohibits the killing of one's fellow men. The Israelites engaged in war because God so commanded them. Such warfare was righteous because approved and directed by Jehovah God. Therefore, if a Christian answers the question about bearing arms, "Yes." he should qualify it by saying, "Yes, if there is any war commanded by Jehovah, or in the proper defense of one's person or property."

Hi Focus,
Yes, I think that was during the era of Jjrizo (Jim Rizoli) and a few other Holocaust deniers. He was eventually deactivated by Simon.

This is the same J.A. Bohnet, whom we saw in Jacksonville, Florida speaking on the French Revolution, purportedly marking the beginning of the end.

Suavojr,
They did the same thing with the date 1872. The same message for 1872 was regurgitated for 1975.

Found this interesting article in the March 15, 1919 Jacksonville Florida Times Union.
"BIBLE SUPPRESSED WILL
BE LECTURER'S SUBJECT
"J.A. Bohnet, of Pittsburgh, a direc-
tor and traveling respresentative of
the International Bible Students' As-
sociation, will speak Sunday after-
noon at ? o'clock in the Woman's club
auditorium, 1? East Duval street, on
the fulfillment of the prophecy in the
eleventh chapter of the Book of Reve-
lation; his advertised topic being The
Bible Suppressed.
The Bible students it is said inter-
pret that Rev. x1 relates to the French
revolution of a little more than 100
years ago and was a picture or type
of the greater world disturbances, war
and revolution which society is now
experiencing.
The speaker it is promised will make
some interesting parallels of the
Fench revolution and the present.
As usual the lecture is free and the
public cordially invited."
As late as 1927 the Creation book was still claiming that 1799 was the BEGINNING of "the time of the end."
See http://www.quotes-watchtower.co.uk/1799.html
It's amazing to me the amount of time JW's have misspent in the dating game.
Even till this day they have never come to grips with Jesus' admonition at Acts 1:7 "It does not belong to YOU to get
knowledge of the times or seasons which the Father has placed in his own jurisdiction."
