just a thought and perhaps this has been discussed before but no jehovah's witness ever actually dies in the truth.
pick a year, any year.
if a jw died in say 1920 or 2020 or whatever...the doctrines change so much and so fast that what is "truth" today is "untruth" the next within this religion.
You are soo off in this topic. The Truth is not and has never been about doctrine and their being static. The truth is a way of life. As the song 'Make The Truth Your Own' says "The Way of the Truth". It is a way, not doctrine. And people aren't disfellowshipped for what they believe.
I believe that Russia is the KoN and that in the preRussell doctrine that Jerusalem was destroyed in 587 but the Gentile Times began in 607.
this is the announcement we have heard “about” but now it has been released to the whole world.
its in the 2nd of a three part serries about the jw annual meeting (oct 2018).
to minute 52. .
I never doubted that it was Russia. Since the end of WWII, it was Russia and then Russia became the Soviet Union, so when the Soviet Union became ununified why would it stop being Russia? And in the past when the identity changed it did not go to no one. It stayed one way until it became another. So there is nothing new here. No hype.
since today there is a post about jws and science i thought it right to throw them a bone and see if they have anything right:.
1. round earth (lol).
2. old universe (13.7 billion years).
OneeyedJoe. They never said the earth was 49000 years old. They taught that the creative days were 7000 years in length. But Gen 1:1 was accomplished before that started so God created the heavens and the earth. Bang. That is the big bang. Then an unknown time after that the creative days began.
The Bible agrees with science.
in the january 1, 2015 watchtower it says printing each issue 52,946,000 in 228 languages semimonthly.
in that 2016 #1 issue watchtower it says produced each issue 58,987,000 in 254 languages monthly.
what is the difference between printed and produced?.
So would the number listed as produced change with every download or view? That would mean the PDF is dynamic or is updated for each next copy.

.....can you clarify one of your doctrines for me?.

I believe that Rev 12:6 and 14 is referring to the birth of the kingdom leading to the casting Satan out of the heavens. The woman would be cared for in the wilderness.
yesterday i was looking to share a pic with a friend of mine, and i swore it was in my photo albums (i have 3).
so i start going through them, and i see so many jw pics!
i had a huge group of friends when i was 'in', and so there is just pic after pic of assemblies, dinners, game nights, rbc projects, my family and the house i grew up in, people from the hall, etc.
I've been thinking back how in the 70s and early 80s while growing up and attending meetings and assemblies, I don't remember anything about them or anything particular that happened. But what I remember is the softball games when several congregations got together, sledding parties, weddings and receptions. I remember camping at the conventions but not the conventions themselves. While they are so big on family worship, but the kids don't remember those things. They remember the extra-curricular activities with the congregations.
Fognomore, I am in the same boat as you are being married to a PIMI.
Self abuse. If a spouse does that does it mean that it is Spousal abuse?
Care and keeping
Family worship - The Bible says children are to be taught at all times, not 1 hour a week.
i don't know if anyone here did topix or used topix for jw news or other religion news and discussions but today topix dropped all their religion forums, discussion forums, news aggregates, .... everything!
except for some of their entertainment portals and info panels.
now i don't have a place that aggregates jw related news.. .
Excellent. Topixs was just a place for slander.
if i was an author of a book i think i would be over the moon if i was guaranteed a sale of around 5 million or more books for my work.. the jehovah`s witnesses have over 8 million members plus relatives that are fringe dwellers who come to the memorial once a year ,.
so what a gold mine they have been sitting on as a publishing house .. why didn`t they keep publishing books for the faithful ,they could have even upped the price , and the faithful would have paid especially in prosperous country`s in the west.. they could have milked this venture for years to come as the faithful would have bought anything they would have published .. and their prophets (profits) would have soared ,literally and figuratively for many more years to come ..
"They believe and teach blood fractions is NOT BLOOD."
That is correct, blood fractions is not blood. Neither should plasma be as that is the stuff that blood rides on.
