The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society (WTBTS) has inserted numerous changes into a proper translation of the Bible in an effort to validate the non-Christian doctrines of the Jehovah's Witnesses (JW's). Consequently, they claim that their New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (NWT) is superior to all others.
Example: Exodus 3:14
"I am" changed to "I shall prove to be."
The revision clouds the connection between God's self-proclaimed title and Jesus' proclamation of being the same in John 8:58, as the JW rejects the deity of Jesus. Misleading Revisions in the New World Translation
They have added words to Scripture, which changes the meaning of the texts to agree with their theology. Notice the Watchtower’s rendering of Colossians 1:16,17, where the word "other" has been added four times to the text, completely changing its meaning. When Paul wrote those passages that the Son created all things, it is obvious that the Son was not himself created. The Watchtower, however, believes that the Son is also a created being and has therefore added "other" - not found in the Greek Biblical text at all - to make it appear that the Son is also a creature. As mentioned before, the Translation Committee has added the word "a" to John 1:1 to make the Son a creature rather than God Himself. Take note also of the same deceitfulness displayed in Philippians 2:9 where the word "other" is again added, when it is not found or even suggested in the original Greek. The Worlds Most Dangerous Book!!
Dr. Charles L. Feinberg of La Mirada, California: "I can assure you that the rendering which the Jehovah's Witnesses give John 1:1 is not held by any reputable Greek scholar."

1918 * Note: the term "evil slave" was foisted upon the Dawn and kindred groups by that most evil of evil slaves "Judge" Joseph F. Rutherford in his jealous rampage to hold back the mass defections that were taking place when he barged his way into the Watch Tower Society boardroom and seized power in 1918. Meet the \Evil\ Slave The Watchtower Society in general and 'Judge' Rutherford in particular) would love for you to believe that these groups are dead, nothing could be further from the truth.

1918 Rutherford's Armageddon prediction fails.
1918 According to Thelemic legend, in 1918 Aleister Crowley came into contact with a interdimensional entity named Lam, who by the way is a dead ringer for the popular conception of the 'alien grey ' depicted on the cover of Whitley Strieber's Communion. From this purported encounter, some have inferred that the industrious Mr. Crowley intentionally opened a portal of entry--through the practice of a magick ritual, The Amalantrah Working--which allowed the likes of Lam and other 'alien greys' a passageway onto the Earth plane. Furthermore, this portal may have been further enlarged by Parsons and Hubbard in 1946 with the commencement of the Babalon Working, thus facilitating a monumental paradigm shift in human consciousness.

1919 C. J. Woodworth was a major individual during the Rutherford period of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society. He wrote the commentary on Revelation in the 1917 book The Finished Mystery. Rutherford made him editor of The Golden Age magazine (later called Consolation) from its inaugural edition in 1919 to 1946. "I came directly under the influence of evil spirits, so much so that for three days I was as completely under demonical control as was Mrs. Eddy when she wrote "Science and Health." (Thirteenth Souvenir Convention Report, p. 274. C. J. Woodworth:The Demon Possessed Editor of The Golden Age
1921 Feb. 2, The Golden Age even pointed out that apparently "honest" demons, speaking through mediums or Ouija Boards, were saying that in discovering Radium, mankind was getting close to the "secret" of life. The fact that "lying spirits" as they called them said this didn’t raise any red flags because, they said, "even liars will sometimes tell the truth." (C.J. Woodworth, "Radium–Earths Most Valuable Substance", The Golden Age, Feb. 2, 1921, p. 260.) The Watchtower Society and Medical Quackery
1922 This was proved in a court of law. The founders of both "faiths", the Mormons and JW's were of the Illuminati bloodline. Charles Taze Russell, who founded the Watchtower Society (JW's), was of the Illuminati Russell bloodline, which also founded the infamous Skull and Bones Society at Yale University. Charles Taze Russell was a Satanist, a pedophile according to his wife, and a friend of the Rothschild's. Indeed it was the Rothschild's who funded the Jehovah's Witness operation into being, along with other Illuminati bankers, through "contributions" by organizations like the Rothschild-controlled B'nai B'rith. One of the key people involved in this was Frank Goldman who later became President of B'nai B'rith. Why would an organization set up (in theory) to help Jewish people and promote the Jewish faith, be funding into existence the Jehovah's Witnesses? I think the name Rothschild answers the question. Russell was also a high degree Freemason and Knights Templar. He promoted Zionism, another Rothschild creation, on behalf of his friends and backers. WAS HITLER A ROTHSCHILD?
1923 Johannes Greber. In 1923, Greber, a Roman Catholic priest, became interested in communication with spirit beings. These spirits often spoke through his wife, a spirit medium, and told him the Bible was full of errors. The Bible clearly forbids all contact with demons professing to bring messages from God. Knowing this, the Society has even attempted to hinder research about Greber by informing inquirers writing them in 1981, that they do not know where his new Testament can be obtained.3 Yet, we have a copy of an official Watchtower letter sent to the Greber Foundation dated December 20, 1980 thanking them for sending their New Testament and a book entitled COMMUNICATION WITH THE SPIRIT WORLD OF GOD. The Watchtower Society first began quoting Greber's translation on John 1:1 in 1962. To show the depths of their deception and that they knew what they were doing, we find that six years earlier, in the 1956 Watchtower, page 111, the Society mentions Greber and warns readers against his demon-inspired translation! WHO IS JOHANNES GREBER?
1924 July 30. Russell recommended his followers read the book, Angels and Women. He personally supervised its editing and said it was beneficial because it throws light on certain Biblical subjects. The problem with Angels and Women is it was dictated by a "fallen angel" (demon) to a woman spirit medium. (Angels and Women. A revision of the unique novel Seola. By Mrs. J.G.Smith. Pub. By A.B.ABAC Company New York) angels2.gif Second Watchtower president Joseph Rutherford concurred with Russell's advise, because he advertised it in his magazine, Golden Age (Enochian Magick term) recommending it and offering a discount to Golden Age readers. angels1.gif

1929 July 24, It is generally believed that the curse which Noah pronounced upon Canaan was the origin of the black race. Certain it is that when Noah said, "Cursed be Canaan, a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren," he pictured the future of the Colored race. They have been and are a race of servants, but now in the dawn of the twentieth century, we are all coming to see this matter of service in its true light and to find that the only real joy in life is in serving others; not bossing them. There is no servant in the world as good as a good Colored servant, and the joy that he gets from rendering faithful service is one of the purest joys there is in the world.

1929 The Society built a mansion ("Beth Sarim") to house the resurrected prophets, who were expected to arrive soon. The new definition of "generation" promised momentous events during the 1940's.
1930 The Watchtower Society, which claimed to be creationists at this time, and taught that all humans descended from Adam and Eve; making all races brothers; would seem to eschew any eugenics thinking. Creationists in general were then openly opposed to eugenics, and many atheistic evolutionists were generally supportive. Yet, the fact that the Watchtower delved into eugenics and at one time evidently supported the movement is a striking commentary on both their scientific and scriptural naiveté. For example, an article published in The Golden Age authored by a Mr. MacArthur, the secretary of The American Eugenics Society, was written at the Watchtower's request. The Watchtower expected that this article would meet "with hearty approval by many of our readers." It begins by noting that many social problems exist; and in spite of laudatory efforts to alleviate these, "we do not seem to be making very marked progress." The solution, the author concludes, is not because we are at the end of the system of things, an answer one might expect from a Watchtower publication, but because "modern science has put into our hands [the] means of preventing much of this suffering. The study of human heredity reveals the possibility of... eugenics, the science which deals with the conscious direction of human existence" The author concludes that we can take a lesson from domestic animals and the fact that "blood tells." All we have to do is identify the "families cursed with a hereditary of shiftlessness, lack of foresight, and indifference to the rights of others" and then do something (such as forced sterilization) to prevent these families from producing a "horde of inferior human beings" (Anonymous. 1930.

1934 September 26. The Journal of the American Medical Association is the vilest sheet that passes the United States mail.... Nothing new and useful in therapeutics escapes its unqualified condemnation. Its attacks are generally ad homonym. Its editorial columns are largely devoted to character assassination....

1935 The Seventh Day Adventist Church expelled a Bulgarian immigrant named Victor Houteff, who had begun teaching his own views on certain passages of the Revelation or Apocalypse, the last book of the Bible. Houteff set up shop on the property at Waco. After first referring to his tiny new sect as The Shepherd's Rod, Houteff and his people in 1942 incorporated and renamed themselves Davidian Seventh Day Adventists. Houteff died in 1955, and in 1961 his wife Florence officially disbanded the sect, but a few followers under the leadership of west Texas businessman Benjamin Roden took over the real estate. Roden died in 1978, leaving behind his wife Lois and his son George to lead the group. Then, in 1987, David Koresh took over the leadership position, and the tragedy that followed is public knowledge. A Short History of the Watchtower Organization
1939 - 1945 The present government of Germany has declared emphatically against Big Business oppressors and in opposition to the wrongful religious influence in the political affairs of the nation. Such is exactly our position: Instead of being against the principles advocated by the government of Germany, we stand squarely for such principles and point out that Jehovah God through Christ Jesus will bring about the full realization of these principles.

Furthermore, the "Erklärung" clearly states that Jehovah's Witnesses supported the aims of the Third Reich.
1939 - 1945 I had the privilege of traveling with Brother Albert Wandres from Wiesbaden to Berlin...But we were shocked when we arrived at the Tennis Hall (the Watchtower's Magdeburg Headquarters) the next morning...When we entered, we found the Hall bedecked with Swastika flags! When the meeting started, it was preluded by a song which we had not sung for years...the notes were (taken from) the melody of 'Deutschland, Deutschland, uber alles'! These notes were the melody for the German National Anthem! Ibid. [Konrad Franke's Testimony] p. 50 (Penton reported that Franke died as a Witness in good standing.

Felix Franfurter was a well-known friend of Joseph Kennedy, (John F. Kennedy's father), and Charles Taze Russell, founder of the Watchtower and Bible Tract Society, known as the Jehovah's Witnesses.

1942 Nathan Knorr assumes control of The Watchtower And Bible Tract Society. "I was just one of many "new-boys" who had arrived to work. I soon learned that the only reason Knorr would know anyone by name was if they were in trouble. Knorr was a cold businessman with little personality and little regard for other people's problems. He had little patience and ruled with an iron fist. Most Bethel staff members were terrified of him." FREDERICK WILLIAM FRANZ
1942 The Watchtower completely reverse's their stand on Eugenics. Partly because it became clear that, determining who should be sterilized or prevented from interbreeding was very difficult (Consolation, Oct. 28, 1942:12). They even admitted that the Nazi techniques were "very much like the breeding and raising of livestock" (p. 12) and likely were appalled at this degradation of humans. When the Nazis began to sterilize women who had every imaginable problem; even color blindness. The Watchtower finally realized how anti-Biblical the philosophy advocated by many eugenicists was. They then realized that "demons, not men," pursued policies that they themselves once approved of! (Consolation, Oct. 28, 1942:13). The Watchtower, Quack Science and Homicide
1945 When nothing supernatural had happened by 1945, the Society extended the meaning of "generation" to 80 years (the maximum lifespan of a typical man, as explained in Psalms 90:10). "Beth Sarim" was eventually sold.
1952 November 15, How do Watchtower leaders feel about ex-members who expose the Society? "We are not living today among theocratic nations where such members of our fleshly family relationship could be exterminated for apostasy from God and his theocratic organization . . . "Being limited by the laws of the worldly nation in which we live and also by the laws of God through Jesus Christ, we can take action against apostates only to a certain extent, that is, consistent with both sets of laws.

1965 N. H. Knorr, the third President of the Watchtower, had wanted to print a Bible dictionary, later known and published as the Aid To Bible Understanding. Originally Raymond Franz, the nephew of Fred Franz (fourth WT president) was assigned to accumulate data for this work. Later, it was necessary to add four more men to this project, making a committee of five. Two of these, Ray Franz and Lyman Swingle, later became members of the Governing Body. Edward Dunlap, registrar for the Gilead School, also researched material for this project. In his book Crisis of Conscience (p. 20-27) Raymond Franz tells of the research he undertook regarding the dating system, which is based upon the cornerstone of 1914 as being the end of the "Gentiles Times," a period supposedly running for 2520 years since 607 BC. Franz tells of how he sent his personal secretary (Charles Ploeger) to visit the New York City libraries to try and substantiate this date for the destruction of Jerusalem. No such evidence was forthcoming. Instead, the date 587-586 BC was reinforced. Later, in 1977, a Swedish Witness elder sent a great deal of documentation based upon the cuneiform tablets (over 10,000) found in the Mesopotamian area that dated back to the time of ancient Babylon, which tablets substantiated, not 607 BC, but 20 years later as the destruction of Jerusalem. As Mr. Franz states in his book, "Much of the time and space (under the Aid book heading of `Chronology') was spent in trying to weaken the credibility of the archeological and historical evidence that would make erroneous our 607 BC date and give a different starting point for our calculations and therefore an ending date different from 1914." Franz and his secretary even took a trip to Brown University in Rhode Island to interview Prof. Abraham Sachs, a specialist in ancient cuneiform texts, in an attempt to find a weakness or flaw in the historical evidence. Not one possibility existed of such evidence being erroneous. Yet, Franz felt obligated to write the article in the Aid book without revealing all of the facts, as the rest of the Governing Body refused to reconsider the matter. Watchtower: The Critical Years
1966 Although 1914 plus 80 equals 1994, in 1966 the Watchtower Society decided that the year 1975 was "significant", because they had calculated that it marked the end of six thousand years since the creation of Adam and Eve. Watchtower publications strongly hinted that "the end" would come in 1975.
1975 Armageddon prediction fails.
1975 When nothing supernatural happened in 1975, the Watchtower Society lost many members. It explained that the time between Adam's creation and Eve's creation was not known, so the 1975 date was only speculative.
Mid-70's, Some members of the Watchtower began to question their dating system, notably their "Gentile Times" calculations. The trouble began when a handful of men were commissioned to write the book Aid To Bible Understanding, a dictionary of Bible terms for the Witnesses. In researching their chronological dating system for the "last days," historical research proved without a doubt that their foundational date of 1914 (supposedly the invisible return of Christ) was nothing more than the start of World War I. This date had been arrived at through a series of unrelated calculations, counting 2520 years from the destruction of Jerusalem in 607 BC to the year AD 1914. But the clock-stopper was this: According to all historical records, Jerusalem was destroyed in 587-586 BC, a full 20 years later than the Witness date. Neither was there found any basis in the Bible for a 2520-year "Gentile Times." Russell's dates and concepts had been relied upon with inaccurate history as a foundation. A shock wave within the organization was inevitable. No matter how tight the security, sooner or later it would leak out. The-'trickle' began in the '70s, and the "dam" broke in 1980.

Later, I became a part of a group that met with Franz on Wednesday nights, listening to him pontificate. We would discuss the "daily text," a scripture passage. I will never forget his voice as he stretched out the syllables, "Brooother Blizaaaaard, what comment do you have on this text." I would try my best to interpret it. Once, I asked the wrong question and drew a violent response. Jehovah's Witnesses are taught that Jehovah God himself deals directly only with a group known as "the remnant" and that other Jehovah's Witnesses must deal with Him through the Watchtower Society. The arrangement puzzled me. I asked: "Brother Franz, since the Watchtower Society in Brooklyn is the only outlet for God to speak through, by way of the printed materials and so forth, how would someone of the 'remnant' get information from God to other Witnesses? I mean ... how would an older sister, say, way out in the country, for example, give Spiritual food from Jehovah to others?" Franz's face turned red and he replied: "How? ... How? ... By supporting what is printed in the Watchtower, that's how!" With that, he went to his room. End of discussion. I believe Franz's reaction was demonic.
Note: Natheer Salih was supposedly Fred Franz's bodyguard and helper, but all communications to WT President Fred Franz had to go through 6'2" Natheer Salih, who would supposedly ask Franz and then would come back with an answer.

What you can get Disfellowshipped for:
1.No longer claiming to be called a brother/sister.
2. Independent study and discussion of the Bible that brings Watchtower doctrine into question.
3. Possession of literature written by former members.
4. Having lunch with a former member, even if the former member professes to be a Christian and was not Disfellowshipped for fornication, greed, idolatry, reviling, drunkenness, or extortion.
5. Attending a service of any other church or religious organization.
6. Authorizing a blood transfusion, even to save the life of a child.
7. Numerous other actions not mentioned in scripture, but deemed by the congregation elders to be "unclean conduct," or "conduct unbecoming" of a Jehovah's Witness. "Conduct" in this case covers a broad range of actions not clearly defined by the Society, leaving discernment about what is not acceptable to the discretion of the congregation's elders. As a result, standards by which people may be Disfellowshipped are inconsistent throughout this religion which claims "unity" to be one of their identifying characteristics. SHUNNING
What they haven't Disfellowshipped for:
1. Promiscuity became a problem once women were admitted to Bethel. But "heterosexual offenses have never been the serious problem that homosexual ones have been," Penton states. "In fact, [former Watch Tower leader Nathan Knorr], who seems to have had a fixation on sexual sins, kept the matter of homosexuality and masturbation so constantly before workers at the Watch Tower headquarters that one is forced to wonder if he did not have homosexual tendencies himself." If so, it might explain why he seemed to protect Percy Chapman, the alleged one-time lover of GB member Leo Greenlees. In 1959, under hint of homosexual scandal, Knorr went to Canada to replace Chapman, who was the Canadian Branch overseer.
2. According to Larry D., a gay Toronto former JW, "Percy ... was totally anti-marriage and he made sure that none of the "Bethel boys" even contemplated the subject ...." Larry described the Bethel boys of the 1950s. "They were all young and handsome, hand-picked by Percy Chapman; there was even an elite group known as 'Percy's boys' who would accompany him to expensive restaurants and bars ... at the time, Bethel was on Irwin Avenue in the center of the gay district of Toronto. There was even a Kingdom Hall above 'The Parkside,' one of Toronto's few gay bars in the fifties and sixties."
3. Regardless of his dubious relationship with Chapman, Greenlees became Treasurer of WTB&TS and one of the Governing Body. According to Larry, "He managed to escape the witch hunt at Brooklyn Bethel in the early seventies when dozens of Bethel boys were Disfellowshipped after learning of their midnight trysts in the sauna in Brooklyn Bethel."

1992 Milton G. Henschel assumes control of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society. (Upgraded from vice to President at the death of Fred Franz.)
1994 Arrives (1914 plus 80 years), nothing supernatural happened. The Society had not ascribed any special significance to 1994, but the "generation" issue was becoming awkward. The ranks of the Society's special members (the 144,000 who were "anointed", based on an interpretation of Revelation) were dying out. The claim that Jesus had appointed the Watchtower Society special status in 1918 was becoming hard to defend.
1995 The Watchtower Society decided that "generation" did not mean a physical generation (i.e. 80 years) but meant, "age", as in "era". This extended the "end times" indefinitely, although when the last of the 144,000 special members die out, the Society will have to be run by regular members.
1996 Friday, 30th August . Religion, censorship and the Internet form a potent combination that is at the heart of a David and Goliath struggle which broke out this week. In the Goliath corner is the huge multi-national corporation, the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, Inc with sales of over a billion dollars a year through their vast door-to-door distribution system by gullible Jehovah's Witnesses, and on the other side, the Watchtower Observer, a Website run as a personal crusade by Norwegian small business-man, Kent Steinhaug. The content of Kent's site contains similar information listed at this site. Last year, a campaign by Internet-enabled Jehovah's Witnesses, attempted to close down the site. Nano, the Norwegian Internet provider, stood by its crusader; and likewise unmoved was the other focus of the campaign, the famous anon.penet.fi anonymous electronic mail site in Finland. This year, it is corporate lawyers sending paper threats, rather than sect members making email strikes. The focus of this attack is a secret book, "Pay Attention to Yourselves and the Needs of the Flock" published by the Watchtower Society, and distributed only amongst the sect's senior ministers ("elders"), with strict instructions not to reveal its contents to ordinary members. "Pay Attention to Yourselves and the Needs of the Flock"
1997 "Of course a Christian's first priorities are spiritual matters, such as reading the Bible daily and getting well acquainted with priceless Scriptural truths discussed in the Watchtower and Awake! magazines and other publications of the The Watchtower Society. Everlasting benefits come, not from surfing the Internet, but from using your time to take in knowledge of the only true God and of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to apply it zealously" (July 22, 1997, p. 13).

E.W. Bullinger writes:
"As to the significance of thirteen, all are aware that it has come down to us as a number of ill-omen. Many superstitions cluster around it, and various explanations are current concerning them.
"Unfortunately, those who go backwards to find a reason seldom go back far enough. The popular explanations do not, so far as we are aware, go further back than the Apostles. But we must go back to the first occurrence of the number thirteen in order to discover the key to its significance. It occurs first in Gen. xiv. 4, where we read 'Twelve years they served Chedorlaomer, and the thirteenth year they REBELLED.'
"Hence every occurrence of the number thirteen, and likewise of every multiple of it, stamps that with which it stands in connection with rebellion, apostasy, defection, corruption, disintegration, revolution, or some kindred idea." (Bullinger, E.W. Number in Scripture, Kregel Publications, (c)1967, p. 205).
1997 In a bold move aimed at suppressing dissident Jehovah's Witnesses; the Watchtower Society's New York headquarters has filed charges with the police against ex-members Kent Steinhaug and Jan Haugland of Norway. Steinhaug reported for questioning to the police station in Skien, his home town, on the morning of March 4, 1997 Watchtower Takes Legal Action Against Ex-Members
1998 March. Representatives of the Jehovah's Witness organization made a formal legal agreement with the government of Bulgaria that the JW's would be able to choose their own stance on the blood issue without any disfellowshipping from the Watchtower and then reneges on Human rights blood agreement. January-March 1999 - pages 2-3
1998 May. The French government hit the Watchtower Society's branch with a bill for 300 million francs back taxes, penalties and interest (roughly $50 million). This was followed in June by a lien on the Society's properties in France. Why? Because the French government classifies the organization as a "dangerous cult" rather than a recognized religion. As a punitive measure, officials imposed a 60% tax on moneys received. October-December 1998 - page 2
1998 September 10-12, Official Watchtower representatives share the speaker's platform with Moonies, New Agers, occult groups, vampire sects, and others at the CESNUR conference (the Center for Studies on New Religions) in Torino, Italy. October-December 1998 - page 5
Another part of a puzzle that was solved was how by way of common genealogy the Watchtower Organization and David Koresh have a lot more in common than most would care to think. Both groups have the same parent and that "parent" was William Miller. Unfortunately the Watchtower in an attempt to distance itself from William Miller only mentions him in its Proclaimers book only a scant 3 times. KORESH AND THE WATCHTOWER SOCIETY

The Below seals are from Seals of The Watchtower
Let's take a look on the official seals of the Company Watchtower. We have a representation of it to the right. That to the left was created by Charles Taze Russell in 1884. That of right-hand side was adopted in 1956 with president Nathan Knorr ruling the Watchtower Society, and replaced the precedent definitively.

The above seals are 100% Masonic. All one needs to do is research the Masons and you will see this symbolism on everything they touch.
In Conclusion.
Let's apply the Watchtower history to Moses, or Noah, and Lot. If Moses told his people every year that God was going to deliver them from bondage and Moses got them all the way to the Red Sea only to have Pharaoh slaughter them. How many of Gods people would listen to Moses each and every time God didn't come through with his promise. None. How about Noah. What if Noah built an ark every time God told him he was going to flood the Earth and then God didn't deliver? Let's apply the Watchtower history to Lot. What if Lot told Sodom and Gomorra every year that God was going to destroy them and it didn't come about year after year. These men would have told God to take a hike. I will not be your fool anymore, as each JW should tell WTBS to do. But God did deliver each and every time he gave these men his word. The bible is full of God coming through to his promise. So what does all this mean? Simple. God has nothing to do with the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society. He has not come through for them one time in over 200 years of false predictions. This means God didn't tell the Watchtower that the battle of Armageddon was going to happen each and every wrong forecast foretold by WTBS. The WTBS instead, have made fools out of the JW's. God does not make fools, or false prophets out of his followers. He didn't Moses, or Noah, or Lot, did he. Nor does God appreciate the WTBS trying to make a fool out of him, which is exactly what the WTBS has tried to do. The WTBS is not Gods chosen organization. The WTBS instead have made any and all teachings out of the JW's mouth's false doctrines and invalid. Dead and void.
If it doesn't come true as it was predicted, then it wasn't from God . Its that simple.
to know whether one is a true or a false prophet.... If he is a true prophet, his message will come to pass exactly as prophesied. If he is a false prophet, his prophecy will fail to come to pass" (Watch Tower, May 15, 1930, p. 154).
