watchtower 1954 p.511 "why do watchtower publications now show jesus with short hair and no beard?
because he is shown that way in older representations of him that are older then the traditional effeminate looking pictures.".
watchtower 1968 p.286 "bible evidence and a recent review shows that jesus did have a beard..." charles russell style of beard was popular at bethel...till rutherford took over.
And when I first started getting involved with that lot, I remember them claiming not to have any “man made rules“.
In truth, all their rules are ‘man-made’, and when challenged they’re claimed to be “bible based”.
Yet Jesus is quoted as teaching that the whole Law can be summed up in just two commands. So how thankful the dubs can be that the GB have filled in what Jesus forgot. (Sarcasm added)

A recent review ? What on earth’s that mean?
Discussion in the printing company’s boardroom ?
To think that millions swallow this as being “the troof”. 🙄
hello, i am grace gough's granddaughter:.
i have started a blog that begins at the beginning and this is with grace.
follow along as i dive into her life - and please do reach out if you have any stories to share with me that i can add to my blog.. you can find the blog here:.
I remember Grace (mouthy) well and the Christmas card exchange.
She was so active in all her sharing and participation.
Such pleasant memories and she has left a wonderful legacy.
growing up around the faith, whenever i heard something taught, i'd always think there is a different way of looking at that, probably better.. we always hear "this good news of the kingdom will be preached... " matt 24:14.. so i think, is there more to it than preaching the kingdom?.
luke 17:21 the kjv and asv says "neither shall they say, lo here!
or, lo there!
The Witnesses are preaching about the Kingdom when they should be preaching about the King.
That’s why they are actually “preaching” salvation through an organisation. It’s not such a long stretch from “kingdom” to “organisation”.
so reading that the dubs are going back to their kingdumb halls got me thinking, i guess they haven’t been getting their regular inspections from thier circuit overseers.
if they haven’t had their meetings, the inspectors couldn’t visit - or did they?
i’m intrigued.
Staying in. Instructions to not say hi if perchance you saw him out. Isolation
So what was he so afraid of? Why didn’t his god the borg protect him?
may 2022 study watchtower page 6, par.
5 “satan instigated an attack on the anointed brothers who were taking the lead in the kingdom-preaching work.
prominent ones among them were the figurative “two witnesses” spoken of as being killed.”.
Don’t ya get it? It was ‘overlapping’ ! 😜

Stop questioning Gods only channel! You know only the latest Watchtowers have “current truth”. The rest is “old light.”
Following the script of George Orwell’s “1984”

Today In NSW they have been recommended to wear P2 masks when the in person meetings resume after April 1st.
Good grief! Who dreamed that up? They just can’t help themselves can they? Making rules is in their DNA

G’day all,

Anyone know? I’m intrigued. I wonder what the circuit inspectors were doing these past two years? Were they still getting paid by the Borg?
Anyone?
