Hello, please someone can share with me old watchtower librarys:
I'm wanting the 1993 and the 2005 in english.
is anyone aware if this project is already being done by someone?
if not, perhaps we can brainstorm how to go about this, now that the pdf for the revised nwt is out.
a couple initial impressions:.
Please, you can share the dump for have the two versions?
WinMerge can use for compare two plain texts.
the watchtower deceiving statement being: read the bible, the word of god, every day!
the watchtower bible and tract society states, with every fiber of its organization and publishing house, that you should not read the bible (not even everyday), without the holy bible additionally being accompanied by and explained by the watchtower bible and tract societys own publications.. the watchtower society and its witnesses claim that one can not understand the holy bible without the guidance of the watchtower publications.. the statement on the watchtower publishing building in brooklyn is therefore at best deceiving, lacking an under-title stating that one should not read the bible without the watchtowers additive writings.
thus the watchtower publishing house is deceiving (lying to) those who read this statement on their building... the watchtower publishing house is already familiar with explanatory subtitles to what they publicize, among others, the subtitles to the watchtower magazine.. the governing body of the watchtower witnesses (whom abuses g-ds holy name), excluded 4 out of the 7 members of the governing body in 1919, with the double vote by their president rutherford, when the watchtower magazines underscore shifted its wording from preaching the kingdom of jesus christ to preaching jehovahs kingdom.
Is so sad that if the miracle knowledge ended close when the last apostle died at 98 year. and if none can understand the bible without the watchtower publications ( Watchtower, Feb. 15, 1981, p. 19 ) this means that between year 100 and 1879 for example, none christian understand the bible. If this last is not true, and the christians between 100 and 1879 understand the bible, this means that the bible can understand the bible without watchtower publications, else god let to christians with many confusion for more than 1700 years.

Hello. The web pdf version is the 2006 edition, not the 1984 edition.
Col 1:16:
2006 edition: "all other things"
1984 edition: "all [other] things"
hello, jehovah witnesses in w65 7/15 p. 428 par.

Hello, jehovah witnesses in w65 7/15 p. 428 par. 18:
*** w65 7/15 p. 428 par. 18 Jehovah’s Advancing Organization ***
With the passing of the years in this twentieth century, Jehovah’s organization has advanced in knowledge and understanding of the Scriptures and of its responsibilities before God. As with God’s organization in the past, so today, it fulfills the words written at Proverbs 4:18: “The path of the righteous ones is like the bright light that is getting lighter and lighter until the day is firmly established.” It keeps advancing to greater enlightenment. Those who were with it at the turn of the century and who are still with it today have seen this advancement.
uses this equivalence for applies Proverbs 4:18
"path" = knowledge and understanding of the Scriptures.
"righteous one" = today Jehovah’s organization.
Proverbs 4:18 not says "knowledge and understanding of the Scriptures" and not says "today Jehovah’s organization". It says: "path" and this can be the life style of the "righteous one", and the "righteous one" in this case not applies to a organization, because in the past the "organization" of Jehovah was the israelites and for example after solomon kingdom they were hundreds of years worshiping other gods, they not was "righteous one", because doing this, they spoiling your "way".
Also, the path is not "knowledge and understanding of the Scriptures", because from 1st century the new "organization", the christians, were losing the knowledge and understanding of scriptures for nearly 1700 years until Russell supposedly begin a restoration. A restoration of knowledge implies that occurs a lossing of knowledge, and this is a light declination.
Also, the pyramides knowledge from occultism of Russell not improve the way of a god worshiper, because occultism is from the Devil.
If the path is the knowledge and understanding of the Scriptures, this affirmation is incorrect: "as with God’s organization in the past", because in the past a knowledge was understanding or not understanding. For example the sacred secret says:
The descendence will come from Eve.
The descendence will come from Abraham.
The descendence will come from Isaac.
The descendence will come from Judah.
The descendence will come from David.
and it knowledge never was removed, never was replaced, for example never was said: The descendence will come from Ismael, and some years after, "no, the descendence will not come from Ismael it will come from Isaac ", that jehovah witnesses did for example: "fds was appointed in 33" and after, "no, no, no, the fds was appointed in 1918", and after "no, no, no, the fds was appointed in 1919". Then, the understanding of scriptures is not "as in the [israelites] past", because in that time the affirmations was "inspired from spirit" and not "guided from spirit" as affirm watchtower today. About prophecies, it is not understood until it are fullfilled, then I don't understand for wath God write in phrofecie style and not in direct affirmation. Until a prophecie is fullfilled it is not understood. Then, where is the ligtht and light and light or progression on understanding of prophecies?. The understanding of prohecies is similar to a darkness, darkness, darkness, light.
And if a prophecie have twice fullfill, then the understanding is similar to darkness, darkness, darkness, light, darkness, darkness, darkness, light. there are a darkness spaces, then is not a really light progression.
If the "way" of "righteous one" is the style of life of a god worshipper, what about the errors that it commits? David commits fornication and anyways it was considered "righteous". But I think this is because of the sacrifice of Jesus applied to the past.
Then I really think that the progressive "way of the righteous one" similar to a light brightness more and more is the progression from imperfection to perfection in the millenium.
when a teaches is changed the wt cites: proverbs 4:18.. now russell is the "messenger", ex "wise and faithful servant".
he as god messenger write this:.

If we were following a man undoubtedly it would be different
with us; undoubtedly one human idea would contradict
another and that which was light one or two or six years
ago would be regarded as darkness now: But with God there
is no variableness, neither shadow of turning, and so it is with
truth; any knowledge or light coming from God must be
like its author. A new view of truth never can contradict
a former truth. “New light” never extinguishes older “light,”
but adds to it. If you were lighting up a building containing
seven gas jets you would not extinguish one every
time you lighted another, but would add one light to another
and they would be in harmony and thus give increase of light:
So is it with the light of truth; the true increase is by adding
to, not by substituting one for another.
The actual uses of Proverbs 4:18 is increasing the light "substituting one for another" instead "adding to" contradicting to the messenger.
If Proverbs 4:18 applies only to life style, and not to the teaches, why wt cites Proverbs 4:18?
and if Russells is the messenger of God, why wt contradict to the messenger of god in the use of Proverbs 4:18?

hello, what is the biblical proof of that a creative days is 7000 years.
i read in the photodrama that russell says that a creative days is 7000 years.
and in 1965 edition of "make sure of all things" page 134 that was changed from "7000 years" to "about 7000 years".. the bible not says the duration of a creative day.
well, the earth full of water (gen 1:1) can exist for millions of years, but the preparation of it are the creative days.
i think in this matter many times.
based in this, i think that the creative days not have the same duration.
for example, the 7th day can be 7000 (4 hrs celestial * 7) years long like and the rest of days, each 42000 years long (24 hrs celestial * 7).. .
Hello. I think in this matter many times. And I show my reasoning.
For me, not exist a exact time conversion between terrenal time and celestial time.
Psalm 90:4 says that for Jehovah 1000 years terrenal time are like 24 hours celestial time or like a watch during the night, 4 hours celestial time.
1000 years terrenal = 24 or 4 hours celestial time.
Based in this, I think that the creative days not have the same duration. For example, the 7th day can be 7000 (4 hrs celestial * 7) years long like and the rest of days, each 42000 years long (24 hrs celestial * 7).
Now,
Matthew 24:20-22 says that pray for the great tribulation not come in winter. If the great tribulation will be a global event, then some people live it in winter and other in summer. But that text show that the exact day and time of the great tribulation is subject to changes accorgind to prayers. For example, if Jehovah set the date of the great tribulation for winter, and christian pray for the great tribulation come in autumn, Jehovah can listen and set the great tribulation for autumn. Also the duration of the great tribulation is not exactly, because that days will be adjusted for have survivors, the duration of the great tribulation will "cut short".
If the Armageddon have exact day and hour that Jehovah knows (Matthew 24:36), the great tribulation NOT have exact day and hour. If it would have, it will not be "cut short", because it would move the armaggedon exact date.
Now if we consider the day of Jehovah composed of great tribulation + armaggedon the words of Jesus in Matthew 24:20 indicates that the exact day and hour that the Father knows, is a date with begin relative, adaptable to prayers, and with duration adaptable for have survivors.
hello, what is the biblical proof of that a creative days is 7000 years.
i read in the photodrama that russell says that a creative days is 7000 years.
and in 1965 edition of "make sure of all things" page 134 that was changed from "7000 years" to "about 7000 years".. the bible not says the duration of a creative day.
I look in Scenario of the photo-drama of creation (1914) page 3, where Russell says: "We follow the theory that each of the Seven Days of the Creative Week was a period of seven thousand years. This, seven times seven thousand, equals forty-nine thousand (7 x 7;000=49;000) years; ushering in a grand Jubilee Epoch."
Then, a a theory was taught as doctrine.
What is the source of that theory?
