  Review and Comments on the New Elders Book

  by MrDarkKnight in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i recently completed an exhaustive review of an unofficial copy of the new elders manual.

  my father, who is currently serving as an elder told me a friend of his in the service department told him it was on the internet so i eagerly looked for it and found it.

  yes, i know it was a violation of copyright, but while at bethel i made copies of many technical manuals which is also a copy of copyright so the wts hypocrisy does not concern me.. i was appointed as an elder the year the pay attention book (manual replaced by this one) was released so i have very good working knowledge of the old book and could compare the two books.

  a SIMPLE answer re: 607 please

  by RayPublisher in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i know it's a complicated topic, and i've spent gobs and gobs of hours studying it and realizing that 586/587 is the most likely date.

  so anyway, here's my question:.

  how could jerusalem's fall be 587 but still be in line with the scriptures about 70 years of desolation that the wto uses to push 607 so strongly?

  Do you think the British are a proud nation?

  by not bitter in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i think we are to a degree but i think its on a different level to the americans.

  the impression i get (from watching us tv and news) is that the majority of americans come across as being proud to be american and quite a possitive nation.

  whereas us brits will display pride as a nation when we have to.

  my wife and i just visited some friends over the weekend from another congregation.

  these two are both full time pioneers, and also participate in various construction projects around the country.

  the husband just got back from a 3 week trip to walkill, new york to help with construction on a new residence building at 'the farm' (does anyone call it that anymore?)..

  The "Tree" of WHAT?

  by Farkel in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the account of adam and eve as a literal event is so full of logical contradictions that it is mind-boggling.

  it only takes a minimum of scrutiny to discover that fact, too.. there is something god did not want adam and eve to know.

  he didnt want them to know the difference between good and evil.
