Do You Remember When JWs Relished Explaining Their Beliefs?
by minimus ini bet most witnesses could not explain their blood policy, their understanding of the slave, and even simple biblical doctrines....they are an embarrassment to any old timer..

The other Bibles say LORD. Which is the same thing.
The Hebrew name "Jehovah" is generally translated in the Authorized Version (and the Revised Version has not departed from this rule) by the word LORD printed in small capitals, to distinguish it from the rendering of the Hebrew Adonai and the Greek Kurios , which are also rendered Lord, but printed in the usual type. The Hebrew word is translated "Jehovah" only in Exodus 6:3 ; Psalms 83:18 ; Isaiah 12:2 ; 26:4 , and in the compound names mentioned below.

But Jesus and Jehovah did say sanctify the name. So for so many other versions to replace it with a generic lord title makes no sense. And they aren't doing what those two instructed.

Jesus did say Jehovah's name
29 Jesus answered: “The first is, ‘Hear, O Israel, Jehovah our God is one Jehovah,
4 “Listen, O Israel: Jehovah our God is one Jehovah.

The seats at my own congregation are full. The one I visited yesterday is a smaller building but enough seats for everyone.

Desirous of change I am sorry you feel that way. To me the GB are just like the people who wrote the Bible, in the sense that whenever they were in the wrong they owned up to it. Jesus said forgive not 7 times but 77 times. And the Bible says more information would be revealed and light of it keeps getting brighter.
I am a believer because anything you search about the other religions immortal soul, trinity, hell, all have traces to pagan origin. Which religion doesn't teach this, yet exalts the name Jehovah like the Bible said to? Other religions don't even say the name, it doesn't even occur in thier Bible but like 6 times. This is the opposite of what Jesus said to do when he said sanctity the name.

Instead of claiming you're 2 year old is a liar, a group should be gathered with you their, and see if she will still say it.

Are they beating us ???? According to Matt. 24:48..
by tor1500 init occurred to me the other day...the society is loading us up on all types of ways to reach others....jw.org, all types of literature, all types of different ideas, maybe you could use the tools jehovah gave us this way or perhaps you can use it that way, maybe you can volunteer, maybe you can go where the need is greater, maybe you can give more $$$, maybe you can give more time, maybe you can look at how you can be in the ministry more, maybe you can meditate more, maybe you can do this or that for your family study, maybe you can talk to a seasoned witness & find out how they.....& i know there are tons of other things maybe we can do....or yes, forgot this one, maybe you can quit your job....then maybe you can get some rest, because you can't serve jehovah when you are tired.
how can you get more rest if, you don't have no money to live indoors...anyway, with all these maybe's we can do..... it came to my mind that the gb isn't here as of yet & it seems the org.
is pressing the friends for bible studies...they are saying....we are giving you all these tools & so why are you not getting bible studies or return visits...it's almost as if they are brow-beating us...do more because the society has given you more...it's not us, folks just ain't listening to us at the door any more....they are not even opening up the door.

Scratchme1010 The teaching isn't supposed to dwindle down. Everyone has the opportunity to accept it until Jesus returns. Besides we still have a little over 20 lands to teach in. So of course they are making a whole effort to accomplish this.
