Growing Up in
Mama's Club - $16
A Childhood
Perspective of Jehovah's Witnesses
Mamas Club is a compelling, coming-of-age story about a
boy who is a victim of sixteen years of emotional, religious abuse. His
day-to-day life and his attempts to conform to a belief system at odds with
his intellectual skills are at times both heart-rending and humorous. But
his ultimate triumph over religious indoctrination should be inspirational
for people of all ages, especially for anyone growing up in an abusive
environment. Revised and Expanded Third Edition, paperback, 266 pages.

"How To Use
the 2005 Watchtower Publication, 'What Does the
Bible Really Teach?' - $9
In Chapter One: What Is The Truth
About God? Wilbur says:
"Pages 8 & 9 of this Watchtower book explain how
children ask questions and declare that it is good
for them to keep asking until they get an
understandable answer. At this point, you can
explain that you have many questions and want to get
a promise out of them that they will answer your
questions in a way that you can understand. This is
very important, because later on you will be asking
many questions that they do not have an answer to or
ones that they dont want to answer early in your
studies. "
Time to put his new ideas to work in your ministry!
This is a chapter-by-chapter study guide for those
who wish to challenge the Witness with the Bible
while studying their own "study" publication. 94 pages, paperback.

THE WATCHTOWER
AND THE ANTE-NICENE CHURCH FATHERS by Michael J. Partyka
- $8
"Speaking as somebody whos actually read all or
most of the extant writings of every single one of the
ante-Nicene Church Fathers cited, I can tell you with
absolute certainty that these ante-Nicene writers knew
the doctrine of the Trinity or at least some of its
key tenets very well. In fact, some of the
very first apologetic defenses of the Trinity
were written by these same Church Fathers!
"So not being one to let such a challenge go by, I decided to take a look
back through all Id read before of the Fathers and see
if I could find two things: (1) the source texts for
the anti-Trinity quotes which the Watchtower used on
its web site to support its anti-Trinity position, and
(2) any evidence, preferably from the same texts
used by the Watchtower, which would show each Church
Fathers support for the doctrine of the Trinity,
or at least his support for that critical tenet of the
Trinity doctrine which says that Jesus Christ is of the
same substance as the Father (i.e., that Jesus is
truly God)." This is from page 2 of this 60 page, 8.5X11"
perfect-bound book that is just what you need to
demonstrate the dishonesty of the WT in their
scholarship. It compares what the Watchtower says and
quotes with what the Fathers REALLY said in context.
Works well with the book, Exposing
"Should You Believe In the Trinity?"
which adds photocopies of the Father's works as well. A
must-have for the Christian who wants to make an
overwhelming Trinitarian point!

Jehovah's
Witnesses: Their Claims, Doctrinal Changes and Prophetic
Speculation -
$19
by
Edmond C. Gruss
In 1972 the author published The Jehovah's Witnesses and Prophetic Speculation
(Presbyterian and Reformed Publishing--2nd edition 1975--with 8 printings). The book received good reviews, with Prof. M. James Penton stating: "For anyone interested in the Witnesses' prophecies and their failures, this book is a
must." (Apocalypse Delayed. 2nd ed. 1997.
Univ.of Toronto Press, p. 401).
The present book began as a revision of the
Speculation book of 127 pages (5 1/2" x 8 1/2" trim size). The revision is essentially a new book, with 372 pages (xv+357) in a 8 1/2" x 11" trim size. The computer count on the 650 manuscript pages was more than 187,000 words . The study is based on thousands of sources which document the subjects treated. The reviewers--all former Jehovah's Witnesses with outreach ministries to the Witnesses--comment on the book's
significance. sample page #1

Crisis
of Conscience - $16
(NEW
FOURTH
edition with latest updates)
by Raymond Franz (rev. June 2002)
A former member of the
Governing Body gives a unique insight into
the authority structure of that religion. The book
allows the reader a view of the decision-making
sessions of a religion's inner council, and the
powerful, sometimes dramatic, impact their
decisions have on people's lives. Although
initially written in 1983, the book reveals a
distinctive and basic pattern, a pattern which, as
the updated information in the fourth edition
shows, continues essentially unchanged. Rather
than reducing the book's relevancy, the passage of
time serves to manifest the validity of the
evidence offered and the currency of the issues
and principles involved. Read the review here.

Gentile
Times Reconsidered! - $16
by Carl Olof Jonnson Fourth
edition, revised & expanded 2004.
The idea that the
"Gentile Times" referred to at Luke
21:24 form a period of 2,520 years has led to
speculation and disappointment among many who
expected Christ's return during the past two
centuries. How did this belief originate and
develop? This book presents the historical
evidence, along with a remarkably extensive
study of ancient Assyrian and Babylonian records
which date the destruction of Jerusalem by
Babylonian conqueror Nebuchadnezzar, as well as
an enlightening study of the Biblical prophecies
regarding the "70 years" of Babylonian
domination of Judah. 390 pages,
paperback. GT-25 |

Sign
of the Last Days - $15
by
Carl Olof Jonsson
Is Christ's return identified
by unprecendented war, famine, pestilence,
earthquakes, crime and other calamities?
Evidence that this claim is based on a
misunderstanding of Christ's own words;
accompanied by historical facts demonstrating
how surprisingly little the 20th century has
differed in these areas from past centuries.

The
Governing Body's Famous Sayings of the 80s - $6
by Randall Watters
Eras come and go, but nothing topped the
charts in the realm of cults like the manipulative
and absurd statements made by the Governing Body
of Jehovah's Witnesses during the decade of the
eighties. (With their lawyers running the
organization now, they're going to be a lot more
careful!) Before they become "old
light," now is the time to use these quotes
from the bosses, still considered current
doctrine! Give these to a JW or one studying with
them, and I'll guarantee you it will shake them
up. These are their statements, with no
commentary. 32 pages, 8 x 11 format, perfect
bound. FS-5
