Ok, this is funny. If you get any feedback through your relatives, after the elders come up empty handed on the 20th, let us know! I cant imagine why they think they can track you down and get you to meet with them after 17 years. Unreal.

unbelievable
by truthseeker1969 inwell here i am in the uk cold and windy but happy to see 'home' for a few weeks.. bought me and ipad to keep in touch.. was greeted by my family like i had never left all active witnesses and all aware i no longer believe, they have the blood thicker than water attitude.. my oldest sister tells me that the elders were 'asking about you' and that she accidentally said i would be visiting.. keep in mind that i left 17 years ago and they are still waiting to see how they can de-humiliate themselves for what they did and i guess they will never give up.
i sat there thinking, shepered the flock?
what is it about elders and getting even and revenge?

I am truly sorry if my presence and participation causes you ... ummmmm... undue (IMHO) concern or consternation.
Congrats on getting the work! I didn't always agree with everything you said, but I wasn't all that consternated by it either.

Congratulations Cedars, your new blog site looks great! I'm sure I will be a frequent visitor.
Question, How does one sign up to leave a comment there? I scanned it quickly and couldn't find it.

Nahum predicted trains; more from The Harp of God.
In the chapter "Our Lord's Return," paragraph 405 explains the difference between modern transportation and that before 1799; horse drawn vehicles vs trains, planes, and automobiles. (1799 was thought to be the beginning of the last days.)
In the original 1921 edition of The Harp of God the following paragraph, 406, says...
"God's prophet designates this same time as "the day of God's preparation". In Nahum 2:1-6 the prophet records his vision of a railway train traveling at a high rate of speed, as another evidence of the day of preparation for the establishment of Christ's kingdom."
In the next edition of The Harp of God (1928), the same paragraph leaves out the train forecast and says...
"The aforementioned inventions are related to 'the day of God's preparation' during Christ's presence. --Nahum 2:1-6"
(Verses 3 and 4 of the Nahum citation seem to be the key train references.
3 The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots flash with steel in the day of his preparation, and the cypress spears are brandished. 4 The chariots rage in the streets; they rush to and fro in the broad ways: the appearance of them is like torches; they run like the lightnings.)
So, did Nahum forsee this...?

Chemicals buried at WT Farms (WT ruining the earth)
by doinmypart init seems that the wt is guilty of illegally dumping printing chemicals (or as they like to say "ruining the earth") in upstate new york.
read the full articles from the news sites below.. "state officials are investigating chemical pollution found buried at an upstate new york property owned by the jehovah's witnesses organization.

Condemning others for things you practice.
I am learning that this is standard Watchtower behavior.

However, it is in the CD
Curious here, I wonder why they dropped it from the reprinted volume but left it in the CD. Any ideas?

@ New Chapter
TD has it exactly right. The upper part of the page is blank. The very light text you see is showing through from the opposite side of the page.
When the Theocratic War Stratgey remarks were dropped, they were not replaced with anything.

Breaking News from Steve Unthank - Police Launch Investigation into Traralgon Congregation
by Broken Promises inaustralia, breaking news: police launch investigation into the rape and molestation of a number of children with the traralgon congregation of jehovah's witnesses.
jw news can report that victoria police have launched an investigation into the rape and molestation of a number of children within the traralgon congregation of jehovah's witnesses over the past two years.
according to initial reports,... the body of elders were strictly ordered by the watchtower bible and tract society of australia to cover-up the multiple rapes of a number of children within the traralgon congregation allegedly committed by a fellow member of the jehovah's witness religion.

@ I_falcon,
In your remarks to metatron you said,
Yes it is corrupt, of course, I agree on that.
Am I reading you right, yre you agreeing that the Watchtower is corrupt in it's handling of the child molestation issues? If so, you must also be agreeing that the 'spiritual paradise' that the Watchtower claims to have isn't real.

- Theocratic War Strategy (says it's ok to lie under certain circumstances)
1957 Watchtower Bound Volume. The original volume (red edging) encouraged using the Theocratic Wat Strategy in field service. These remarks were dropped from the latest reprint of that volume (white edging). See Scans below.
- The Harp of God (book)
The 1921 edition was subtitled "Proof Conclusive That Millions Now Living Will Never Die." Later editions replaced that subtitle with "The Harmony of the Ten Primary Bible Teachings."
