Double Edge:
You forgot to include Galatians 1 verses 6 to 10.
littlelamb,
If you don't know what the content of that chapter and verses, read them in the bible and see how do that passage straight from the Word of God applies to the WatchTower Society and other Religious Groups.

My advice to you is run Little Lamb run, while you still can!
Study the Bible, no problem; get to know God, no problem, have anything to do with Jehovah’s Witnesses, BIG PROBLEM. IT'S A CULT!! Understand? IT'S A CULT! I wish I had a second chance. I wish I were in your shoes, boy I’d be running!

Hi Littlelamb,
If you are truely interested in learning about the Bible then the Watchtower Society and their followers are the wrong place for you to turn to. Even top leaders in the JW movement have only a surface knowledge of the Scriptures and their "deep" understanding is illusional at best. A good Jr. College intro class on the Bible will give you a far better understanding of the Scriptures than studying with a JW. There are also great self study books about the Bible available which are more objective and have no hidden agendas unlike the Watchtower Society style of "study".
A JW will not even talk with a well trained Bible scholar because the JWs weak arguments will be ripped to shreds. The Society warns their members to avoid Bible debates for this very reason as their membership is so poorly equiped to handle an educated foe. You should ask yourself, would an honest and confident person with a thorough Bible knowledge ever really turn down a chance to get into a good discussion about such an intersting subject?
I suggest you do more research on the Watchtower's history using outside sources along with the Society's original publications to verify all their false predictions and extra Biblical teachings. See for yourself why there are so many Ex-JWs before you make any commitments to this group.
The best advice to a Little Lamb is in John 10:7, 14 " So Jesus said again, 'Amen, amen, I say to you, I am the gate for the sheep...I am the good shepherd...' " In a nutshell, it's about a personal
relationship with the SHEPHERD. He is the GATE, not the Watchtower
Society.
Littlelamb:
What fred said was good. Read Gods word, Pray,develop a relationship.
All of this was good EXCEPT... "These things will help you when you start going to the meetings".
When you start going to meetings, then all of the reading you do will be interpreted for you by what a group of men has said is correct.
You will no longer to understand the bible as you see it but rather as THEY see it.
If you disagree after you are baptised, you face being disfellowshiped
Fred knows this.
Fred, aren't you being dishonest with Littlelamb?
My advice is to develop a deep relationship with Jehovah and Jesus. And read God's word daily and pray to him for guidance, forgiveness of our sins, and help.Don't the JWs teach that God does not hear the prayers of non-JWs?
And a personal relationship with Jehovah and Jesus? Isn't that only possible if you are one of the 144,000?

You're absolutely correct follower! Coincidentally, just last night, I prayed to Jehovah, through Jesus Christ of course, for your posts to remain incoherent or at least sound like Jar Jar Binks.
Praise Jah.

thanks for praying for me
it will take more than prayer to overturn my water tight logic though
good luck with the praying thing
