reading this makes me understand why the churches , especially wbts will be so happy over this.. think about it, no servant can now sue for discrimination against the organization, insulation at the highest degree,.

oh boy,.

2 Tier Watchtower Publications- 1) For Regulars and 2) For Door-to-Door

folks, i dont post much although i have been raised a jw all my life.. it has been awhile since this begain to bother me but i have to ask...what is the true story of why the wtbts created a 2nd edition for wt magazine placement purposes only?

i have been puzzled but can only suppose the reasons, costs, control, etc...but truly did they think that when ct russell started the magazine it was for all to read, not published for a "select few" and if you come regular to the meetings we'll get you the "real issue" with real articles?.

i know this has probably been discussed over and over, but please humor me and tell me how they can with a straight face "they" think this was "ok" to publish in this manner.. this alone smacks of hypocrasy, as it was not the intention of the faithful slave to do such a thing when jesus put control on earth in ct's hands, funny how that works out.

Judas, why???
by dreamgolfer in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
why do jw's continually "trash" judas for betraying jesus?.

isn't it due to jesus death that we all have the opportunity for salvation?

i am not suggesting we treat judas as a hero, but he was fortold to betray, jesus knew it was going to happen and went along with it.. if judas did not betray, what if jesus was not put to death, where would we all be now?.

to all that have an interest, i am eager to hear your response to the statement on page 20, par.

"in fact,......(quoting matt 25:34-40).

are we to believe that those in the org, are like the nethinim that came out of babylon, we are "slaves" - wt 4/15 1992 page 13 par 14-23. i am interested as an elder has made this an example of equality to view jw's stance today.. i am also sending out a 2nd question for response with regrads to judas.. thanks.
