todays' wt had this sentence in one of the paragraphs....we know this because each of their individual names are indelibly written upon the 12 foundation stones of the heavenly new jerusalem.rev.
21:14.. the cross reference lists judas iscariot as one of the twelve.
so with one breath they have said judas was cursed as jesus betrayer, and yet in their rnwt they still cross reference him in the list of the twelve named foundation stones of nj.
What has always been interesting to me is that the yes, there is a replacement for Judas by scripture, but the WT makes its own claims as to who is already judged for their second death as if they looked upon the book of life already.
Adam and Eve - I hear this a lot from ones as if its the absolute truth from Jehovah
Judas - Even though he was not faithful, we know nothing of his lafter after betrayal and if he repented. Afterall, he did God's will
Saul?
Ananias?
re: adjustments to draw close to jehovah.
dear brothers:.
some changes involving our understanding of the meaning of gods name and what it re p- resents have been made to the first chapter of draw close to jehovah.
"He has also taught us about the person it represents." I come back after months of hiatus and am greeted with new changes. Ok, am I missing something or does this not conflict with John 4:24 etc that state God is a spirit? There is the grey watchtower spirit-person definition, so I wonder if this is to align more of that idea with all of ther texts.
so not many mainstream witnesses know of the elder books right?
i never heard of them growing up a witness.
i was wondering what would happen someone spread a rumor that shepard the flock was an apostate book.
It is an interesting tactic and I like it... Spreading a rumor about a non-existant book. Then, if an elder hears of such, they would no doubt defend it. In the right forum, it might be fun to bring up, but any long term discussion would be short lived. For example, how would you bring up the contents of a Harry Potter novel? Since you're not supposed to read it, you're not suposed to know anything about it.

i found this funny.... 8 racist words you use every dayby:ned resnikoff, peter hildebrand january 19, 2009 2,140,387 viewsadd to favorites .
have you ever worried that, no matter how hard you try, you'll just never be racist enough?
well, you're in luck.
#1 was listed as bullshit in the same section
#3 cannibal- really, is it only west indies?
#4 "The word "bugger" stems from "Bulgarian," or someone from Bulgaria, but medieval Catholics used it as a catch-all term for all members of the East Orthodox Church."
#5 foreigner - wow that's abrasive. what race is foreigner?
#8 hooligan associated with a family that happened to be Irish.
i was getting gas today and up pulled a car that looked familiar.
these witnesses are my parents neighbors and they tried to turn me in for smoking pot, unfortunately for them, they told the elders it was the wrong person.
there is a girl that floats to diff halls, she looks like me.
If they do not interrupt the normal flow of traffic and let them know they are not soliciting, gas station attendants will let them off. When they do this, they have already placed a mag with the attendant.
