AlanF: To know if Witnesses are chosen by Jehovah to be his people, please read the "Proclaimers" book. Oh wait, you previsouly said that you have someone on the inside, a researcher, that told you that many things had been purposely left out. How convenient for you! You are so foolish dude, you can't even provide me with the name of that brother. What's wrong with me talking to him? Oh that's right is hard talking to someone in your imagination.

To Danni: ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS
by You Know inq 1: where does the bible say god's name is jehovah?
in all probability, the bible that you have does not have the name jehovah in it, anywhere.
we too have a fraternity, a brotherhood, gods family is what we are, and if anyone dishonors the congregation by conduct unbecoming a minister of god, shunning, or disfellowshipping as we call it, is gods means to deal with such ones.. q 7: how can a person isolate themselves if you chose to knock on peoples doors outside your religion?

ok, ok if you insist, even though you did not answer my question correctly.
From where does the GB get the authority to tell JWs which blood parts they can accept and which they cannot?
They have the authority given to them by Jesus. Jesus is the head of the Christian Congregation.
How do they know so surely, e.g., that intact red cells are off-limits but hemoglobin extracts - essentially red cells without the cell walls - are ok.
It really is just common sense. The Bible says "abstain from blood". It doesn't say in that scripture "do not eat" or "no transfussion". Of course not, it was a general statement. Abstain is understood to also include transussions. That is simple, no blood transfussions. Then scientists started seperating components of blood, well now the GB had to address that issue. So basically, Witnesses will not accept the 4 major blood components. After that, well the GB stays out of it.
So, can any JW explain how the GB is able to decide these life and death matters if (a) such things cannot be found in scripture and (b) the GB is only inspired in the sense that the Bible was inspired and so they base their beliefs only on the Bible?
The GB decides this matters based on scriptures and the authority layed on them by those scriptures.

To Everyone:
I am a sort of psychiatrist and most of my questions help me understand what makes you tick. I really don't mean to offend anyone. To tell you the truth, every day that I read posts in this forum it strengthens my faith in Jehovah and his Organization.

Evidence that the WTS Claims to be Inspired
by Lionel_P_Hartley inmuch evidence has been provided to demonstrate that the wts is a false prophet even though jws will say anything to deny this unpleasant fact.
generally they act and teach explicitly that the gb speaks for god - that it is is god's sole channel of communication - but also claim that the gb is not inspired.
that is a distinction without a difference.. this has caused you know to be on the lookout for jw teachings "channeled" to him by the slave but which are without a bible basis.

siegswife: wrong, at the time that decision was taken, the elders in Jerusalem were not inspired, if they were inspired it wouldn't have been necessary to deliberate on the issue. The point is they had the authority give to them by Jehovah to make a decition after a careful study of the scriptures.

To Jayhawk - Proclaimers Book Quotes
by YoYoMama inc. t. russell had been critical of those who had set various dates for the lords return, such as william miller and some second adventist groups.
*** jv 61-3 6 a time of testing (1914-1918) ***.
the years from 1914 to 1918 did, indeed, prove to be a testing season for the bible students.

LDH:
you missed the following sentence to the statement you refer to:In saying “anyone,” The Watchtower included all disappointed ones of Jehovah’s Witnesses, hence including persons having to do with the publication of the information that contributed to the buildup of hopes centered on that date.
That includes the brothers in the Writing Department. So they are not blaming the sheep, but the brothers in Bethel.
Understand, mamasita?

Outlaw: Actually I'm not called a liar on a daily basis. This is just a lame way for you to insult me. Only a few have insulted, but what else should I expect here. In reality, I've had pretty good conversations with many on this board.
