  It's very close but should have two lines:

  NAME_______________________________
  CONGREGATION_______________________

  instead of just a name and cong.

  The Governing Body & 2 Corinthians 4:5

  by Honesty in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  2 corinthians 4:5. for we are preaching, not ourselves, but christ jesus as lord, and ourselves as your slaves for jesus sake.

  whom does the governing body preach as the means of salvation?.

  does the governing body's actions prove that they preach themselves as jw's slaves ot does it prove to be the other way around and jw's are really the governing body's slaves?.

  One more for your list Data-Dog

  *** w67 8/15 p. 499 par. 4 The Way to Security ***

  This signifies that the provision of salvation is closely connected with Jehovah’s organization. A remnant of the spiritual priestly class is still on earth today, forming the nucleus of the congregation of Jehovah’s people. We cannot ignore the role the visible congregation of Jehovah’s witnesses plays in this provision of salvation.

  smaller wt magazines

  by zeb in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i made a tiny comment about the smaller and poorer quality of the wt magazines to my wife (in) she retorted "thats because they are using the internet.!".

  it was not her words and her reply was almost rehearsed no doubt learned at the ms.. pretty good given the wts warnings against all things internet until relatively recently..

  At the meeting last night someone answered up and said how the "half-sized magazines are progress".

  I was going to ask if reducing them to zero pages would be better still.

  HOW to accept counsel and criticism from an Elder

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  there is a catch-22 that can trip you up at the local kingdom hall.. .

  if you receive "counsel" from an elder about any behavior at all and you "resist" or question the counsel you can be accused of having a "spirit of rebellion".. .

  so, you have to either shut up and comply (with even the most ludicrous and ill-founded suggestions) or answer back and be chastised and "marked".. .

  A handy phrase is "For those loving Jehovah there is no stumbling block",

  or "The stupid one is hurrying to take offence".

  OK, I'll see what I can find.
  I vaguely recall I saw it during a meeting, so could be a book or WT.

  Unless I was reading your website at the time!

  But JW's never ask for money.

  All they do is kindly point out the way you can enjoy the privilege of sacrificing to Jehovah.

  It's very different to passing a plate you know!

  The announcement is that you should only make recordings for your personal use, and certainly not for uploading to networks.

  You might be better recording the one where they rail against homosexuals- can't remember which one that was though. Saturday I think.

  And the expert has to be current.

  The WT recently quoted a 16th century doctor on the dangers of blood transfusions!

  1. jw
  2. friends

  no more assemblies or conventions.... no more service meetings, book studies, bible studies..... no more bethelites, gilead graduates, no more missionary work.. no more watchtower studies, field service, pioneers, elders, ministerial servants.. no more 'serving where the need is great.'.

  its over, its over.. the watchtower has decided to end it all, suspend the organization work.

  no more money.
