Can you make out a profile of a man's face in the field?
This needs to have a thread of it's own.

Someone mentioned in the watchtower study that it was weird that the artist chose blond hair for one of the babies on page 5. The two babies are supposed to be Esau and Jacob. Esau was said to have a red look which could mean he had red hair. This would explain the brown/red haired baby in Abraham's arms. Then who's the blond baby in Rebekah's arms? Both Rebekah and Isaac are both brunet. Jacob should have come out brunet or bald. There is no mention of him being a different color. The wiki page on Esau says his brother Jacob was called "Tam" which means "relatively perfect man". Either the artist is a racist or he is playing a practical joke and is one of us.
What do you think?

I've just passed this on to my circle of friends who are still in but seriously doubt the multitude of doctrine. We're in it for family and friends. They got back to me real quick and were so exited. They couldn't believe this day had come. We've all been watching Leah's show on Scientology.

If You Question The Governing Body, You're Like Korah
by pale.emperor inanyone who questions the governing bodys authority is labelled as an apostate and almost always they bring up the story of korah and his revolt against moses.. watchtower august 1st, 2002, the article loyally submit to godly authority paragraphs 8-15.. https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/2002563.
in not so subtle hint, the gb likens themselves to moses, and those who disagree with the gb are korah.. paragraph 15 is actually quite damaging to the gb's argument though:.
it was so unnecessary for all those people to lose their lives.

The sons of Korah were proven wrong when the earth opened up and swallowed them. Coincidence or divine judgment?
The present day apostates were proven wrong when a fire appeared above the heads of the GB. Since that is not happening then the Helper is not with them.

If they really had the true "Deep things of God" people would be flocking to this organization. It would take another Jesus-like person to unify the whole of Christendom to which there are 1000's of denominations now. I guess that would be the 2nd coming. If Jesus did come back in the flesh all of these church leaders would try to disfellowship, shun or kill him to keep the control over their flock.
Has anyone, who still believes in one way or another, had scriptures pop out at them that proves the governing body wrong on certain subjects? It seems they prefer to follow the Law of the OT and ignore what Jesus taught.

GB Samuel Herd on "Angels and Women"
by freetosee ini find it interesting that samuel herd (as co) promoted the book angels and women in his talk "fear of giants".
he called it a fascinating book, once you pick it up you cant put it down without reading it from cover to cover!
he also mentions that russell wrote the foreword of the book and that it can be found in the gilead library.. .

Thanks for providing that link to Herd's talk Jaydee. I find it strange that he remembered the title wrong and called it "Women and Angels". He sounded quite fascinated with the story and knew a great deal about the societies involvement with it. I think he said the title wrong deliberately. He knew people would try to do search for it on the internet. They would come up empty handed with the search engine if they listed it in that order back then. He's probably thinking, "If you want to read it you have to sign up for Bethel service to get your hands on it."

JWs MUST Accept The Watchtower Teachings EVEN When They Are Wrong!
by minimus inisn't it unbelievable that a jehovah's witness must accept whatever the organization says or they can be disfellowshipped??
unless they tell you that their understanding has changed, you cannot believe anything unless they say it's ok. .
many years ago i questioned them about their ridiculous view that whenever the word "heart" was mentioned, it was a literal blood filled organ.

"Who has the authority to determine whether or not any WT teaching is wrong?"
If it was in ancient times that would be a prophet. Maybe a few here are prophets sent by God. The GB should be watching this website if they want to be directed by Jehovah.

The witnesses worship the organization like a god. They protect it's image at all costs. The numerous failed prophecies are an indication that they do not have God's backing. Isn't there a scripture in the bible that says God even sends angels to fool certain people? Witnesses can be real nasty when the're protecting the image of the .org.
The previous comment about the Slave saying something is a different color than it really is, is a real warning sign. It's like Lemmings jumping over a cliff. God holds everyone accountable for their actions. God even wanted to kill everyone who followed Aaron in building the golden calf at Mt. Sinai but Moses changed his mind.
I'm still in it for family but I keep quiet about my true feelings. I roll my eyes every time they give glory to the faithful slave. They seem to say that more and more these days. I don't remember it being said as much when I was a kid.
With the state that the .org is now, they won't be presenting any ground breaking "new lite" in the near future about the great tribulation and beyond. If there's any new information to be revealed it will come from the "World" outside.

He'll be ranting about the loud socks again because the bros are still sporting them. I'm betting he will add a new complaint. I've seen a number of guys wearing shiny metallic suits.That will be next.

Draconian laws, such as chewing gum is banned in their country. I visited Singapore many times but only at the airport. I was in transit to another country.
