Amazing this is like the reasoning book times 10.

 

Interesting that no mention of, or reference to, the Reasoning book was made.  🤔

 

And no reference to the 1953 (brown) edition of the Make Sure book either....

 

.... only to the 1965 (turquoise) edition of the Make Sure book.

I have the brown one as well from 1953.

Did we enjoy he look back at the "Make Sure" book.  Ah, the memories. Many of us had it bound in the back of our Bibles for field service use...❤️

I think that's because it's far closer to the Make Sure book than the Reasoning book.

More like the Make Sure.

The Make Sure quoted the actual scriptures in the book, which was useful, SCL just gives the scripture references, so you need to actually click through to read - the SCL is much more of a 'starting point' for research to continue using the NWT Bible with it's footnotes, study notes, and cross references.

I don't think it's similar to the reasoning book at all

The reasoning, in fact, came with reasoning to use in the preaching. This book can even be used in, but it is more for "personal uses".

How did you know 

This is the exact reason I did not quote the new year text. I didn't even tell my wife, as she is watching the update now. I am an early riser, so I watched it.

I just listened to the entire chapter that our 2024-year text is taken from. Very powerful expressions of faith and comfort. That chapter will make an excellent family worship night!

Several years ago, I got the idea to see if I could make this publication more useful and available on my Phone/Tablet.

link hidden by moderation

Sorry, Making the link available for anyone to download IS DISTRIBUTING.  If you would personally like to see the publication, please PM me.
