  Jehovah expects those who serve him to show willing submission to his will.

  Ahhhhhhhhhh.

  Jehovah, you had me at "expects".

  What love I feel for you.

  "Serve", "willing", "submission", and "will" are all words I associate with love.

  Thanks for giving me a laugh, watson.

  I don't understand these callous responses. It shows REAL attitude.

  What I got out of this spiritual snack was that really it is my fault. I just need to be flexible, patient and understanding. Eventually, the slave will be able to figure things out for me, and then it will be cool.

  So you young ones should understand that neither your parents nor the Christian elders in the congregation are going to force you to get baptized.

  HAHAHAHA!!!!

  Callous?

  Are you implying that I was being sarcastic?

  The slave has warned us of the evils of sarcasm.

  Perhaps you need to research that next time you do your personal study, brother.

  Friday November 2, 2007 - Do not become righteous overmuch, nor show yourself excessively wise. - Eccl. 7:16.

  Eccl. 7:16.
  
  A few become "righteous overmuch" and resent changes or refinements in our understanding of the Scriptures. Pride may play a role, and some fall into the trap of independent thinking. Whatever the reason, such an attitude is hazardous, since it can draw us back into the world and its ways. What if we are tempted to murmur because of having doubts about certain teachings that Jehovah's people hold in common? Then let us not be impatient. The 'faithful slave' may eventually publish something that answers our questions and clears up our doubts. (Matt. 24:45) Prayer, personal study, and association with spiritually-minded fellow believers can also help to remove doubts and can deepen our appreciation for the faith-strengthening Bible truths we have learned through Jehovah's channel of communication. w 7/15/06 14, 16a

  This is actually today's. I don't miss this stuff at all.

  Independant thinking is a trap....gotta love it. And if WT is Gods channel of communication as they claim, is he horrible at it or what? Just how many things do we have to be misinformed on before people realize this is a crock......oompa
