   It is better to be in the truth then to swallow an repeat a lie.   
      
   Friend james does a very good job below showing how the jw vatican is   
   deceptive in language games to serve its own agenda.  Here is the meaning   
   poured backward thousands of years to provide the jw vatican an excuse to   
   flip flop on doctrine and practice; and it has constantly don so many many   
   times:   
      
   >Proverbs 4:18  But the path of the righteous is as the dawning light,   
   >That shineth more and more unto the perfect day.   
      
   Get ready, the pourring backward to shoehorn jw vatican invented excuses   
   in to one single fragment of one  scripture bverse is about to begin:   
   >   
   >The righteous are those who obey God's word.   
      
   Indeed.   
      
   >Are they born with the   
   >complete understanding of the Bible? It's like the Scripture says, his   
   >Bible truths start out as "dawning light". As he gradually gains more   
   >Bible knowledge, which includes correcting past errors, he continues   
   >to "shineth" more and more.   
      
   The words "bible truth/ bible knowledge are not in the above; they are   
   forced in 2000 years later to form the jw vatican excuse from thin air so   
   they can over and over again "pull their fat from the fire".   
      
   it is false; not one other word in scripture exists in support the above,   
   none.  To adopt that idea poured backward into scripture is however warned   
   about in scripture.  Romans; among many other such warnings:   
      
   1:25 Who   changed the truth of God into a lie   
      
   The NT contains not one word that makes God an on again off again liar;   
   what blasphemy.   
      
   Paul writes in multiple places that the gospel he is teaching/writing is   
   from the apostles; a complete unchanging package.    Jude one of them:   
      
   1:3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common   
   salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye   
      should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the   
   saints.   
      
   He did so warning of others to come who would say they had new unknown   
   knowledge required to make it complete.  Other apostles encountered those   
   false teachings.  All of their letters are to warn and correct the false   
   teachings, including any 2000 years later.   
      
   The jw vaticn says, hold on, the "old light" God was providing was either   
   incomplete or incorrect; He is providing "new light" to correct His past   
   old incorrect information.  How does the jw vatican know, their leaders and   
   them alone recieve God's "corrected light".  He did not correct "old light"   
   in the previous 2000 years, or He was a liar about the "old light".
