who is ellwood johnson?.
all i could find mentioned about him is that he is, or was, a circuit overseer.. this previous thread is about a talk that was actually given by ellwood johnson, not samuel herd.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/217287/witness-plays-gov-body-samuel-herd-talk-me-he-mentally-ill?.
he also gave a talk in which people were laughing about some aspect of child abuse.so, does anyone know anything about him?

can someone explain in easy to understand language what this argument is all about.
i am not that clever.
i am hoping to talk to the elders about this as well as whoever is willing to talk about it on here.

The elders' manual states that the definition of apostasy is something like "stubbornly holding to beliefs contrary to the teaching of the faithful & discreet slave". Once the elders figure out that you are not acquiescing to their attempts to "help" you, they will form a committee and probably disfellowship you. Do NOT bring up this topic to the elders unless you want to be disfellowshipped. |
This is so true.
Except now the "Faithful & Discreet Slave" is the Governing Body ("We love this idea" said David Splane, a GB member)
If you insist on believing 607BCE is not the year Jerusalem fell, you will be very likely disfellowshipped.

If you bring up the subject with the elders, or write the Watchtower, about the year 607BCE, they will most likely refer you to the two part article on the topic published in the Octorber and November, 2011 issues of the Watchtower.
I would vernture to say that most JWs would say that the matter is settled simply because the Watchtower wrote an article on the subject.
But the points made by The Watchtower in its article have been refuted.
Please see Carl Olof Jonsson's two part article:
WHEN WAS ANCIENT JERUSALEM DESTROYED?
the watchtower does not usually place women in positions of authority.. so, does anyone know if there have been any female medical doctors (any type, md, do or chiro) that worked at bethel recently?.
the only one that i know of was dr mae j work, but she was at bethel over 70 years ago!.

can anyone confirm that gb member anthony morris iii's real birth name is anthony esposito?.
if it is, that would explain why it has been hard to find his military record, or any other biographical information about him.. .

but the soil is not that good.
"this town has the best soil of all the towns in the county," said roth.
I have two questions.
1) What were ther reasons for the Watchtower having a farm in the first place?
2) Why did the Watchtower decide to stop its farming activities?
