It's funny, but my mother loved it when I played Jimi Hendrix. She especially liked," Foxey Lady, and Purple Haze". I used to play guitar at some of the witnes gatherings, and those two songs where the most requested songs. Those songs, and "Stairway to Heaven" were the favourites.

My Jimi Hendrix experience
by confusedandalone inas a 13 year old a friend of mine had a jimi hendrix record and told me if we play it backwards that they said words.
he bought the record from a shop not far from where we lived and we were the only family that still had a record player.
so we played the record and i spun it backwards andnothing happened.

I thought that the Society letter stated that they could never serve again.
There is also the legal matter, depending in what country that you happen to live. You could let the police know about what happened, in Canada, and they will treat the matter confidentially. They may arrest him, based on evidence.

Josephus in "the Jewish War" remarks on the nature of eternal life
by kepler inthere is a corresponding topic on science and the immortal soul that reminded me of something that i had encountered in the 7th chapter of josephus's history of the roman campaigns in judea, "the jewish war".
one version of this is available in penguin classics, for example.
"among the jews are three schools of thought, whose adherents are called pharisees, sadducees and essenes respectively...".

Then there is the account of the ressurection of Lazarus. I beleive it was in Jn 15, where Laz's mother mentions to Jesus that she is aware that Lazurus would be ressurected in the last days. Jesus of course ressurected Lazarus then, to show the power that he had over death.
Josephus did give us three points of view of various Jews that lived during that time, but he didn't give us Jesus's point of view. He wrote secular history, not divinely inspired writtings

Yes, I remember the Org book released at a Service meeting. I remember the section allowing Elders to retire from their positions if they voluntary wanted to do so, removed. Then, in the most recent revised version it was put back in.

If Lot can ask for the city of Zoar to be spared, why can't we ask for the DF'd to be spared?
by Quarterback intodaay's wt study mentioned jah's reasonableness when lot requested to go flee to zoar, instead of flight to the mountains.. jah had accomodated lot's request, and the city that was doomed to be destroyed got spared.
why can't we expect god to change his mind for the end of this system of things?
why can't we request the salvation for those that are df'd or da'd?

What Congregation should you attend?
by Quarterback incan someone, please, help me in finding this?.
i remember in a kingdom ministry, written quite some time, ago.. it mentioned that it was upto the individual family to determine what congregation they would attend, based on their own circumstances.
they wouldn't be subjected to determined boundaries.. does anyone remember that one, and where it exists?.
