  Bible teaches other Gods ruling other people? Is there an honest bible translation in book form out there?

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i will give an easy example incase any bible like this exists then somebody can point me in the right way.

  in a hebrew interlinear, as found at http://www.scripture4all.org/onlineinterlinear/hebrew_index.htm, .

  look up or compare exodus 15:11, ex 18:5. i'll quote from the nwt, but almost all bibles make the same mistake/assumptions i'll show in a second.

  What's in it for them? (GB)

  by SyntaxError1974 in

  if the wbts is just another business?

  then what do the gb get out of all this?.

  tim cook (ceo apple) makes around 378 million a year.. donald trump makes around 60 million a year.. i understand the wbts may have vast property holdings, stocks, bonds, and revenue from donations.. but i can't grasp the incentive for the gb to make this stuff up.

  THE DIVORCE OF THE CENTURY!

  by JW GoneBad in

  1. forum
  2. suggestions

  so there is a rumor going around about 1914 and its possible demise!.

  i cant help but think of the many and i say many divorces (not to make light of the matter) that jw families have had to deal with among their ranks over the years.. however, knowing how long the wtbts and 1914 have been together and the thought of mother (wtbts) doing away with her man (1914) after nearly 100 years of marriage is truly heart breaking for some.

  many old-timers probably still think of the old days when they were like any other happy couple; inseparable, always holding hands, romantic and the like.

  What proof do we have? How did we pass the inspection in 1919?

  by Quarterback in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  with the new light, the governing body apparently passed the master's inspection due to our focus on preaching the kingdom at that time.

  we were the only ones doing this according to the july wt re all those changes.. but, were we really doing this in 1918?

  i thought it was only the colporteurs.

  Roots and geometries in Revelations

  by kepler in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  several days ago while driving across town in the car, it came in conversation that the new jerusalem was perfect cube.. also, according to my source, the measure of city's dimension was quite significant of itself.. since beltway traffic was heavy and i was in the midst of exiting to an even more congested side road, i let most of those assertions ride.

  but i made a mental note to look up and read the specifics of revelations chapter 21. from previous readings and commentaries, i was already a sceptic about whether john of the gospel was the same author of the epistles and this final book.

  if i looked at words and concepts in the gospel and revelations, i am inclined to think that john patmos was a wholly new influence on the course of the overall biblical book: someone accused of a less polished greek, pre-occupied with swords, harlots, the number seven and the the number 12, wings and mouths, codes and symbols for sure.. 21:1 - "then i saw a new heaven and a new earth...".

  Victorian Aust. Royal Comission into Child Abuse

  by smiddy in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  today mon.16 sept.marks the first day of the inquiry opening to public submissions .

  ( i hope i have worded that right ) and i`m sure someone will tell me if i didnt, and rightly so as its an important step in this enquirey.. from today submissions are being heard from organisations that held responsibility for children in their care such as the ymca , boy scouts , girl guides , etc.etc.. apparently religous institutions will be heard at a later date.. note : this is the chance for the public to air their concerns , and from what i hear, their are thousands of submissions already on the table.. i think this will go on for at least the middle of next year if not longer.. smiddy.

  Just received a phone call from bethel overseer and guess what?

  by label licker in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  him and another brother will be in our neck of the woods tomorrow from bethel which is and hours drive away and would like to know if i could meet them downtown.

  i will be bringing with me the transcript to my jc but not the recording.

  although there's names on the papers there's no recorded voices or my signature so there's nothing they can do as far as sueing me, right?

  How do believers defend a god who is going to murder billions and pin it on them?

  by tootired2care in

  2. beliefs

  at that time those slain by the lord will be everywherefrom one end of the earth to the other.

  they will not be mourned or gathered up or buried, but will be like dung lying on the ground.

  - jerimiah 25:33.
