  On Bart Ehrman's Blog+John's use of an early 'Signs document'

  by TerryWalstrom in

  2. bible

  the land of judea?

  he then did signs in judea (3:22).

  i think the greek is saying that this healing was jesus second sign, and he did this one after he had come from judea into galilee.

  They have no where else to go to build new relationships at that point in life. The JWs are their entire network. Doc

  I think so Doc, At some point a person has to surrender and bow down in defeat.

  I know a few elders who are still getting away with something sexual.

  It would be assuming most likely that from time to time the GB members glance on to this site in private though.

  You mean like this;

  One of his quotes mentioned how the society launched their first website in 1997, to provide publications , etc.

  I believe there is a few brothers like that in every KH. One old brother told me once that the Watchtower invented the internet. OK..............

  The Watch Tower Society reveals itself

  by Doug Mason in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  over time, the watch tower society has completely changed many of its beliefs.

  for example, until recently, the wts said that the emblems of the memorial represented the church, the 144,000, that the emblems did not symbolize jesus.. at times, the wts changes the name of a belief while it continues the teaching, for example, the wts used to say that jesus and the 144,000 together were the "the christ".

  today, the wts denies this teaching but the name "anointed" means "christ".. do you want to see what the watch tower reveals about these things and more?

  The last mental struggle was to understand how a democratic society could become autocratic without having conducted a democratic election. It became clear that they were gradually pummeled into submission, with a process that took more than 20 years.

  Isn't that how the WTS got to where it's at right now. Good things come to those who wait. (or shall we say, "Bad things come to those who wait")
