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.

Has There Ever Been a Mass Disassociation?

2. friends
i was thinking of how powerful a mass disassociation exodus would be if there would be 1 day out of the year where hundreds or thousands disassociated themselves?

i was wondering if this has ever been done in the past?

i've read about the dublin apostasy and james penton's congregation having over 80 people da themselves...but other than that not much..
