That is not quite true is it Mr Gordon, you are using study materials provided by the Watchtower Society that interprets the commentary called the New World Translation. You cannot understand the Bible Mr Gordon the Watchtower has told you this,
“We all need help to understand the Bible, and we cannot find the Scriptural guidance we need outside the ‘faithful and discreet slave’ organization,” (Watchtower, Feb. 15, 1981.)
And this studying material has been deplorable over the life of the Jehovah Witness history.
Jehovah Witnesses are discouraged to study the Bible Mr Gordon the Society fears such actions that is how they lose so many of their members.
“From time to time, there have arisen from among the ranks of Jehovah’s people those, who, like the original Satan, have adopted an independent, faultfinding attitude . . . They say that it is sufficient to read the Bible exclusively, either alone or in small groups at home. But, strangely, through such ‘Bible reading,’ they have reverted right back to the apostate doctrines that commentaries by Christendom’s clergy were teaching 100 years ago . . . ” (Watchtower, Aug. 15, 1981, p. 29)
I suggest that studying Watchtower material in some belief would decipher the Bible you would have a better chance to stick to the astrology pages of the local paper. ie Nil chance
The Watchtower, Jehovah's sole channel on earth were not disposed to a bit of astrology in their publications. Reconciliation (1928) p14 WTBS
man sees that the earth occupies a place of great importance in God's plan and purposes and that in his due time every creature in heaven and in earth will be brought into one grand harmonious whole or unity. To this effect the inspired witness of Jehovah wrote:"Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself: that in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him." – Eph. 1: 9, 10.The constellation of the seven stars forming the Pleiades, appears to be the crowning center around which the known systems of the planets revolve even as our sun's planets obey the sun and travel in their respective orbits. It has been suggested, and with much weight, that one of the stars of that group is the dwelling-place of Jehovah and the place of the highest heavens; that it is the place to which the inspired writer referred when he said: "Hear thou from thy dwellingplace, even from heaven" (2 Chron. 6:21); and that it is the place to which Job referred when under inspiration he wrote: "Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?"—Job 38: 31.The constellation of the Pleiades is a small one compared with others which scientific instruments disclose to the wondering eyes of man. But the greatness in size of other stars or planets is small when compared with the Pleiades in importance, because the Pleiades is the place of the eternal throne of God.
The eternal throne of Jehovah caught on telescopes, lights on but nobody seems home, Mr Gordon astrology or Jehovah Witness study material same value same outcome.
