Might be true, and might not be; regardless of whether JW's condemn those things. <br /><br />I'd actually be more interested in seeing a refutation on this blog post by you than bringing up irrelevant points.Mike Felkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01636380476793694320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1031953942530977337.post-4553509911904277262010-10-15T05:38:29.855+01:002010-10-15T05:38:29.855+01:001.

Yet you still refuse to address the issue; unless proof can be provided that of the 1919 selection, then your next statement carries as much weight, to me at least, as a Mormon saying the Book of Mormon condemns divorce. Can you see the point?<br /><br />2. But shouldn't you take your direction from God's Word the Bible? Shouldn't the Bible be your first and ultimate authority in matters of spirit, life, faith, etc? And as stated above, what weight should Watch Tower Society publications carry unless they do in fact speak for Jehovah God Almighty himself.<br /><br />3.

Do you, as a Jehovah's Witness, have a burden of proof regarding your claim to be part of "the truth" and that Jesus choose the Watch Tower Society/"anointed" "Christians" associated with that corporation in 1919?<br /><br />2. The <i>Watchtower publications</i> strongly exhort against them? Would you like to re-think that statement?<br /><br />3. Purely subjective and proves nothing.

In 1992, the watchtower said “Today, a small percentage of mankind can still recall the dramatic events of 1914... Will that elderly generation pass away before God saves the earth from ruin? Not according to Bible prophecy.” The world has not ended yet but millions are still enslaved by the Jehovah Witness Watchtower cult. -Chrischristian peperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04579312342254742512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1031953942530977337.post-68057059167170739212010-08-18T11:56:01.077+01:002010-08-18T11:56:01.077+01:00Wow.

I'm going to predict zero response from StandFirm. <br /><br />Also, its interesting that the old NWT's translated "worship" in the main text of Heb. 1:6 and is still in the footnotes of the reference edition. <br /><br />Perhaps in this case the light has gotten brighter for StandFirm, but not yet with the organization?Mike Felkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01636380476793694320noreply@blogger.com
