Is the WTS changing positions on the croos vs. stake?
by whyizit inmy husband was listening to a radio station the other day and said there was news that the wts has decided that jesus dying on a cross rather than a stake may not be as far-fetched as they once thought.. have any of you heard this?
i have been cruising the threads to see if there was already one on this subject.
if there is, point me to it!

The new Bible Teach book still makes an issue out of Christ dying on a stake (tree) NOT a cross.

Deadpoet:
I remember the old Youth book (red in color) that stated the thought about masturbation leading to homosexuality. What utter rubbish!! Statistically 98% of men masturbate, how is it that only 10% are homosexual? The sad thing is that too many JWs believe everything they read in the literature.

If U Don't Go To All The Meetings & Conventions You're Not Jehovah's Friend
by minimus inso said an elder's wife who is considered the most respected sister in the congregation.
she said this at my mom's bookstudy where many elderly attend.
when my mother told me what the elder's wife has said, i said, "well, it's better to know now where you stand with jehovah than later, i guess".

On what scripture did the elderette base her comment? What meetings did Abraham attend? As I recall he is the only one in the Bible referred to as God's friend.
