  What piece of WT literature is worth holding onto, or have you kept? Why?

  by losingit in

  2. bible

  i have basically thrown away all of my bound volumes and loose wt and awake magazines.

  i kept some bpoks, the insight to the scriptures, god's love, the reasoning book, and daniel's prophecies (this was my favorite) .

  i held onto insight to the scriptures after reading some of ray franz's book, crisis of conscience.

  Interesting quote from the DC

  by GoodGuyGreg in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i don't know if anybody else has mentioned this, but i'm currently at a dc in sweden, and this morning, during the symposium on different kinds of service, it was mentioned that 40% of baptisms are the result of informal witnessing.

  if you add the number of baptisms of children of jw parents to this, how many are left that are baptized as a result of the door-to-door work?

  doesn't sound very effective at all....

  Philippians 2:5-11

  by PSacramento in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  in paul's letter to the phillipans, typically dated 50-60 ad, paul says:.

  your attitude should be the same as christ.

  you being the very nature(form) of god, did not consider equality to god as something to be held on to (grasped), but made himself nothing, thaking the very nature of a servant being made in human likeness.
