  On JWN .. are you a teacher or student ?

  likely most poeple feel that they at times can and should be both , that is a teacher or a student.

  i know i have learned and gained much insight into many things here.. but most often.

  fail to make acknowledgement... not sure why i guess i hate for a person to feel i am flattering them or kissing up.

  Definitely another student here. The day I stop learning from this forum is the day I will leave.

  Reasoning from the scriptures, is there a plan to release a new version?

  i know that the section on last days is no where close to correct anymore with the 'overlapping generation' change, i am sure there are other discrepancies as well with the book.

  shouldn't there be a new version of this coming out (or even better for those of us who are trying to find changes a 'change list' like what was done with the 'grand climax' book)?.

  If they dumb it down any more it will come already underlined. Any deviation from what has been underlined would be the sign of some-one doing some independant thinking.

  "rejecting or trivializing the genesis account about adam and eve creates a domino effect that undermines nearly every major teaching in the bible!

  such a way of thinking leads to a host of unanswered questions and a faith with nothing to stand on.".

  footnote: "these include teachings about gods sovereignty, human integrity, good and evil, free will, the condition of the dead, marriage, the promised messiah, a paradise earth, gods kingdom, and many others.".

  When I read threads like this I wonder how many of those still in know it is B.S. and only stay in for the sake of their older relatives.

  One human prior to Adam blows the whole thing.

  It certainly does!

  the warnings of Peter and Jesus for those living in the last days would be meaningless.

  Nah, it will become a symbolical flood. Lol

  It wouldn't surprise me. It's all about control and they have lost control of who has access to hard copies of old literature. They don't want their flip-flops and failed prophecies accessible to any-one.

  Without Adam and Eve the concept of sin disappears and with it the Edenic paradise with talking snakes.

  Looking to the future it is possible all literature for personal libraries could be in an electronic format with weekly up-dates that over-write previous versions. Unless some-one gets a hard copy of every change they will all be as forgotten as previous old light.

  With the overlapping generation thing though the urgency is gone.

  I remember being told it wouldn't be late nor would we be waiting until there was only a handful left who made into their 90s
