Something I need to clear up about the bible - It is not a BRONZE AGE BOOK!

by HowTheBibleWasCreated in

let's be technical.

the bronze age ended in 1200 bce in devoloped places and later ... aroun 900-800 in other places.

indeed read 1 samuel 13's ending.. the bible was produced not one tiny bit in the bronze age.

Inactive relative defends new donation setup based on word of active relative. Doubts veracity of letters!

by Wasanelder Once in

my sister came to the society's defense on the issue of "pledged amounts" not being accurate because a realative stated that it didn't happen in her congregation.

so i said they were mistaken, and that i had access to the letters proving it.

she doubted that they were authentic.

Total worldly people except that kneejerk loyalty?

It's nearly impossible to take the WT out of some people.

What would the band's name be?

"Wormwood"

or, you could have a really beautiful female lead singer and name the band "Thyatira Banks"

Elders answer questions about the changes of the blood ban

by opusdei1972 in

some days ago two elders visited my sister because she has not been attending the meetings more than one year.

this time she prepared notes containing watchtower past teachings about the blood ban so as to ask them for those changes, and it seems that the elders were also prepared for her past questions.

for instance she showed them that "albumin" was considered "under scriptural ban" in 1956 (read the page 20 of awake, september 8).

@ 3rdgen: ADCMS, it would be fun to speculate which fornication fraction is forgivable wouldn't it?

.

Why speculate? I suggest a full-on experiment. LOL.

Acts says to "abstain from blood", yet WT has concluded fractions of blood are acceptable.

Acts also says to "abstain from fornication". So how come fractions of fornication are not acceptable?

@ designs: Its always a little uneasy to have someone ask you a question like that in public

.

You mean like when a JW is street witnessing and singles out a person at a crowded bus stop to ask the KM question of the month?? But the JW sees no problem with it?

So the water rises to 18000 ft and how does it now flow out of the region? Let me guess.. God build invisible walls to contain the water.

It'd be interesting to hear the elder's explanation as to why, prior to the 1960's (?) organ transplants were banned but blood transfusions were not. Then the flip-flop: organ transplants were allowed and blood transfusions were banned.

.

And about those who died for those changes, they said that Jehovah let his people die in His Holy Wars (during the days of the ancient Israel), so we shouldn't be surprised for that.

Jehovah™....such a warm, fuzzy god.
