A warm invitation is being extended to any and all to join in reading and discussing 5 pages a day in in Brother Russell’s Six Volumes of Studies in the Scriptures and Tabernacle Shadows.
A special website has been developed to assist in this spiritual endeavor: www.ReadTheVolumes.com This website has all the resources you will need in a simple and convenient form. A quick and easy one-time registration is required.
By far the most important part of this project is the mutual encouragement and support available by means of the BLOG feature. Anyone can leave questions or comments as part of this group, online study. In this manner, you will be able to share thoughts with other Bible Students, JWs and Former JWs who are also refreshing their minds with a Present Truth message.
Website contents include a Daily Reading Calendar, a link to read Studies in the Scriptures online, and even a link to an audio version of the Volumes.
There is no better source than God’s Truth to enable us to cope with daily demands and natural problems; to be refreshed; to redirect our minds toward heavenly things eternal.
I’m also on there… Sadly I’m just ending reading volume 1 again, so it will just be starting over, but heck why not… It will be nice discussing biblical topics with kindred spirits for a change.
ZenoDotus, you will be able to help us now.LOL. We are so slow on Wednesday having a good time tho. We just love the association.
he he he… I doubt it :p… And having a great time is important too, enjoy learning! (was the slogan of my college)… Will come again soon too, enjoyed it when I was on! You guys were very nice! God bless!
Oh boy, right before memorial there were so many trying to get on at once. So glad you finally did get on. Our Chicago convention will be broadcast this year. Br. Peter has the info. He will need your email however. Boise convention is tomorrow, I think I will get on, they are on Mountain time so tonight they start in 30 min. Talk to you later.

Do i need to get any books for this? and are they are free?
Teresa the book is online and you can listen to it. I understand if you live at home. It’s that way when I visit my sons homes. Although I am a grown woman and their mother, JW are paranoid when it comes to any other religious material being in their home. They are so afraid of demons being on it. So I understand. Let’s do this over the internet and you will have more people.
……”afraid of demons being on it” LOL, Jacqueline I remember the paranoia about that!And fear of having crucifix-like objects in the home for the same reason.
In fact Ken, most witnesses have more fear of demons than God sometime. We have adult children of witnesses that have left the org. They disobey the command on honor for your mother and father. Not fearing disobedience to him but loyalty to the org. The fear many have of the demons is quite crazy. It’s as if they feel Jehovah’s will is subject also to the demons.They don’t believe in divine providence at all, but witnesses used too.
Teresa – You can order a free Volume 1 from here: http://www.biblestudybooks.org/ This is the first book they will be studying out of.
hi peter,
I cannot order them because i don’t want to get in trouble okay.
hey Teresa,
You can just download them, for example here
For Jehovah’s witnesses these book have merely historical value… Most of them don’t even know that biblestudents are still around.
Teresa will you be near your computer or phone tonight for a few minutes? We have our Wednesday study and can say hello to you. https://www.friendsofjehovahswitnesses.com/2012/04/25/feb-15-wednesday-night-call-in-to-our-bible-study-heavenly-and-earthly-natures-are-distinct/
i have a phone
okay do you see the phone number? I am signing in now. Hope you can come on.
yes i do, but i am watching the yankee game, and i don’t have skype on my ds and i dont have free minutes now.
I have no free minutes after 9pm you can text me the study or email me. what area code is 603?
630 6871117 is Illinois area code but Skype is free. You just have to download and stuff I will help you one day.
can i download it on my Nitendo 3ds system?
Skype has an app. I don’t know about your phone
Teresa I am on the Skype conference call now. If you want to hear it you can call me and I will lay the phone so you can hear. You may call at 9 your time and we will have 30 more minutes to go. You have my phone number still right?
no i don’t.
That’s great Jacqueline, I’m interested in seeing what those two (active?) witnesses have to say about the volumes:)
One is a close relative that has already acknowledged the Bible Students but won’t fight the family like I did. The other one is showing the Photo drama already and is on the chicagobible.org site often. No one wants to go thru the shunning. But this will be annonymous for them. I will mail you some of the books if you think you can use any. I intend to do a witness work this summer, haven’t figured out the bugs, but it will be directed toward witnesses in my area. I will run a brief free ad in our paper saying I have excess of vol 1 and see who responds. We have a flea market that will open this summer by my home and I might have a spot there for my business. Bugs to be worked out.
Signed up and ready to go. I sent the link to 2 witnesses that have the volumes also. Thanks.
This is wonderful Brother Pete,I’m already registered and ready to go.Thanks!
