  What is it with JW's and the Cross?

  by FloridaPerry in

  2. beliefs

  history shows people were hung on stakes and crosses, why do the jw's make a big deal about the cross?

  isn't jesus dying for the sins of man the issue?

  the cross was a part of the jw's early on.

  My whole point of answering this thread was that the wts says today they were firm on the belief in 1936 or earlier that jesus DIDN'T DIE ON A CROSS. it doesn't matter in this book how much the wt talks about IDOL WORSHIP etc. I clearly see were the wts is going with this stuff even back in 1946. same old song and dance. the wts still printed in this book that jesus DIED ON A CROSS. that was my point any way you twist it. enjoy your night

  caminarte: on page 135 there is no reference that jesus didn't die on a CROSS only that it's a symbol that the catholic church uses as well of painting and statues. I see nothing here that the wt says that jesus didn't die on a cross. In essence the wts is claiming jesus died on a cross but crying about idol worship. Ill read the next few pages you posted and see how the wts twists all this

  caminarte; you are correct on page 37 they do quote the Emphatic Diaglatt saying " he (jesus) humbled himself, becoming obedient unto death of the CROSS" I read the next few pages and they never say that Jesus don't die on a cross. the way I read it is that the wts are agreeing that Jesus died on a cross. of course the wt plays with words I get the feeling they start with the term cross to keep the reader /new convert interested then switch it to tree a few pages later. But the fact is still there in the 1946 edition they are still saying jesus died on a CRoss and they are using a respected bible authority to back up thier claim for what it's worth

  Caminante; I'm looking over the 1946 edition of "let god be true " as I type and you are correct about pg 42 43 about jesus being hung on a tree. I'm also 100% sure this book also says that jesus died/ hung on a CROSS using the word Cross. I'm not sure which page. But I went over the 1946 and 52 book in detail with another x jw about 10 years ago. And it stuck in both of are minds about the reference to the cross . if I can sit through scaning this book again I'm 100% positive it said jesus died on a Cross. most liked at the end of the book. I could not forget something like the Cross reference and I'm sure I reread it a number if times to check the content.

  I have a copy of the 1946 and 1952 wt book "let god be true" in both books IT SAYS JESUS DIED ON A CROSS. So when the wt says they changed it in 1936 they are LYING or were flip flopping for decades . the city of pompei was destroyed in 79 a.d. by a volcano only 46 years after the death of christ. The city was buried in ash for 1900 years, when they dug it out in the last 100 years every thing was preserved perfectly one of the things they found was a cross on a wall with the name of jesus .

  maybe the effect of this change is bigger than realized?

  in 1995, it was discussed (positively) by everybody, during the week we studied the wt.

  one elder stepped down and was looked down upon.
