You'll find they did the same at revelations 5:9-10 where thier Bible says "there going to rule as kings and priests over the earth" . The KIT shows that the word "over" is actually the word "on" the word "Kings" is not there and the word "rule" is actually the word "reign " which can have a different meaning .

WTBTS' corrupt translation - to elevate elders!
by The Searcher inthe wt march 2017, p.11, par.
13 quotes ephesians 4:8 as saying, "the bible refers to them as 'gifts in men.
however, the org's own kingdom interlinear translation (and every other bible translation) gives a truthful translation of the verse: .

I know of an elderly female pioneer that lost her husband and her only source of income . Now she has had to put her little house in to a reverse mortgages program so she can have enough money just to pay her bills.
I also know a JW that has a auto repair shop. He has had to fix more then one pioneer or single sisters car for free because they didn't have any money to pay for the needed repairs. Another JW family had him repair thier car but when it came time to pay they delayed because they had spent the money to send the wife to Hawaii so she could be at the regional convention with her family. They finally paid but it took awhile.

JWs kinda admit to not being Christian
by NikL induring the book study which is basically a book all about the history of "gods organization" ©.
a paragraph that hit me like a ton of the proverbial bricks was this.... 9 first, jehovah’s servants came to have the proper view of the importance of god’s name.
faithful early bible students viewed the ransom arrangement as the bible’s main teaching.

Well here is the thing the early religion did have a lot of similarities to the Masons. The religion did use a lot of the symbology of the Masons and were also into pyramidology. Maybe Russell just took all this from the Adventists who knows. In the end cults like the JWs and Mormons only give Jesus lip service and the Masons were definitely not into Jesus because they knew who he really was.
Today the jws have given up all Masonic symbols but still meet in halls and still just give lip service to and about Jesus. Thier really not a Christian sect thier a old Testament based religion worshipping the god of the Old Testament.

by Crazyguy inin the story in the gospel of mark, mark writes that jesus is hungry and comes across a fig tree.
mark explains that it not in season yet jesus upon finding the fig tree has produced no fruit kills the tree.. this story makes no sense if literal so do the gun teach that it literally happened?.

Richard Carrier has said much the same, that it's an allegory written by Christians to show how the Jewish temple was useless and no longer needed. It was an attempt by Christians to continue to marginalized The competing Jewish sect.
I was just curious if the jws really taught it really happened?

Jesus in the old testament
by Steel inabout two years ago i was challenged by a householder to do the research on the subject.
of course thinking it was all bunk i decided to take a look off the reservation.
much to my surprise a lot of started to make sense and i started to understand the connections between the old and new testament .

Didn't all the teachings of Jesus being in the Old Testament by the JW was just to make him out to be just another angel?

Official Increase in the Number of Jehovah's Witnesses You Shouldn't Trust
by David_Jay inreports are coming from witnesses that, once again, the number of memorial partakers has risen considerably this past year, 2016. while confirmation is still to come on the exact numbers, the current explanations given for this increase surely causes a dilemma.. imagine the roman catholic church publishing each year the number of members who it felt were mistaken about what they believed in, that this same number of members was likely suffering from problems such as pride or even mental disorders or something along this line.
this number, by the way, was in the thousands too and growing annually.
what would you conclude, therefore about the catholic church and its admission?.

Once I found out about how the Borg cared more about thier real estate holdings in Mexico then how jws could worship, then it became clear to me that they would lie about anything including thier numbers.

Why didn't God also reveal himself to the Canaanites just as he did to Moses in the burning bush?
by deegee inwhy didn't god also reveal himself to the canaanites just as he did to moses in the burning bush so that the massacre/genocide of the canaanites could have been avoided?.
why didn't god also invite the native palestinians into his covenant, giving them the same laws he gave the israelites, and establish an egalitarian society where people of all races could live together in harmony?.
instead, he ordered his people to invade and slaughter the natives, killing them to the last man, woman and child, specifically instructing them to show no mercy to anyone under any circumstances.

History shows that the only major exodus from Egypt was the Hyksos. They were pushed out of Egypt by a king named Ahmose and a ancient historian named Manetho according to Josephus said they went to Jerusalem.
I don't think the archaeological record confirms that these people went to Jerusalem do to its small size and population but these people must of traveled east. Anyway legends can sometimes are based on some truth.
