    Warlock, hi.

    And they'll use the scripture, that faith w/o works is dead. So that covers the reason for 5 mtgs. a week and f. service, etc.

    Juni,

    Yeah, I was thinking of that scripture as I wrote. Ha,Ha. Funny how we have been trained to think alike.

    It's not only funny, but scary!!

    The problem is this: They go beyond the Scriptures and make their own requirements which often time become pharisical (sp?) That's why so many of us felt doomed in Jehovah's eyes because we felt we couldn't do enough or be enough for our Creator.

    Juni,

    You call to mind another scripture, Ezekiel 8:12. Apply it where you see fit.

    Ezek. 8:12

    "......Jehovah is not seeing us; He has left the land." Said by those defiling God's temple w/false worship and other wicked stuff.

    What is your point? Asked in all due respect.
