Fuckers... the Conti case has them twisting the scriptures, and eliminate the idea of slave or rape by erasing the "For Yourselves" part in verse 18!
Makes me sick! Here are a few translations:New International Version

Only the young girls who are virgins may live; you may keep them for yourselves.English Standard Version
But all the young girls who have not known man by lying with him keep alive for yourselves.New American Standard Bible

It was obviously not obligatory that we "inherited" sin. The birth of Jesus PROVES that when Jehovah feels like it, he can make a child born perfect from an imperfect mother, like Mary!
He could have easily made Cain & Abel perfect...
Hence, the only reason Adam & Eve had "imperfect" kids is because Jehovah WANTED them to pay for their parent's sin!
Think about that for a moment. The last CO I asked that to threw his arms in that air and left my house. Yep... -

For what it's worth, this is my take on the AGM
by stillin inas i was leaving the kh where i watched the meeting, i overheard several conversations, all to the effect that"what a great bunch of guys the gb is.
" the sense of humor among them, the naturalness and ease they had while speaking, etc.. for that matter, i too, was impressed at how like able they seem to be and, believe it or not, the 3 1/2 hours went by fairly quickly, thank god!
but as i think about it, i'm concluding that that was the main goal of the wide viewing of this event: to assure the rank and file that the gb, the men who are in charge of god's household, are a great bunch of guys.

As the GB, they truly disgust me. I know 2 of them personally; good guys — but when in thier mob, they are ruthless. Sad.

by hoser inas predicted by jwn loose conduct has been replaced by brazen conduct.
galations 5:19 2 peter 2:2 .
a catch all phrase for apostates.

Daily Bible reading question.
by DATA-DOG inas a current of past elder or ms, did you actually read the bible?
were you ever troubled by the lack of knowledge from others who were serving?
as an example, i spoke to an elder who recently finished the elder's school.

I never accepted priviledges, and they were offered. My thing was deep personal study — and that's how I realized how pompous these a-holes are, and then became an atheist. Reason won.

Am I missing something here when,,,
by label licker inromans 1:1;philippians 1:1;1thess 1:9;james 1:1;jude1:1;revelation1:1;11:18 ect,,, distinctively calls these ones slaves as well as jesus being called the faithful rev 5:1,2 thess 3:3 or 1tim1:12. even the prophets were faithul slaves.
yet, it's only these eight weenies that say they are, making themselves kings and priests before jesus comes again.
how sad for the sheep they have not come to know the messiah..
-
braincleaned
Good point on the OP. Yep — they have placed themselves as Kings already; and have unbiblically placed themselves as mediators between the sheep and Jesus. If God exists (which I don't believe he does)... they are in DEEP shit for their 'coup' in overthrowing Jesus' place.
