  How many Bible Students were preaching in 1919?

  by Emery in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  doing some additonal research on the 1919 appointment.

  they claim to be the only ones preaching at that time and i find it hard to believe that a few thousand russelites out weighed the global preaching work of christendom.

  especially considering that what they were preaching from door to door at that time was false prophecy and now 95% abandoned.

  mindnumbed, very true. But couldn't any church, organization, or religion make a similar claim? Why not Islam? They've teach that the Trinity is a lie and refuse to celebrate "pagan" holidays since the 6th century.

  Faders shunned now?

  hi all so my family had their c.a.

  last weekend and my mother dropped this one on me, she'll now be treating me as a df'd person per info she received from a talk at the assembly.

  apparently a fader should be treated as "bad association" given the fact they up and left the holy "truth" to splash around in vomit.. .

  They're copying Apple's style of marketing to the T. The music and videography is almost identical. This is a well done video, but the vision they're trying to sell doesn't match up with reality.

  1975 - The Killer WT quote

  one thing is absolutely certain, bible chronology reinforced with fulfilled bible prophecy shows that six thousand years of mans existence will soon be up, yes, within this generation!

  (matt.

  24:34) this is, therefore, no time to be indifferent and complacent.

  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.

  A couple of questions here. How many Bible students were there around 1918-1919 compared to Christendom? There's no way a few thousand followers of Russell out numbered the preaching of Christianity around the world in 1919. When it comes to groups or religions that don't teach the trinity, hellfire, or holidays how come Jesus passed up on the Christadelphians and Islam? Islam has been against the trinity since the 6th century.

  It feels like a middle school kid wrote this article. Can't you say this about any god or thing? "The only way you can have strong faith in Thor is if you're convinced Thor exists. I believe he exists because, where else would lightning bolts and thunder come from if not from our mighty king's hammer?"

  If the media has lied and people are still gulliby falling for it, why haven't they sued anybody for defammation or slander? Why don't they show us where people have lied? It's pretty simple really.
