  BB, this is a reasonable question:

  Why haven't you informed the Elders at the KH about your activities here ?

  Brownboy said: How would you know if I have, or have not informed them Rabbit? You say that I haven't, how would you know this?

  Brownboy, if you had informed the elders of you being on an apostate site, wouldn't they be very unhappy with you? You say there is nothing wrong about being here, ( I agree, there isn't) But you are on an "apostate" site, according to the witnesses. And from when I did attend meetings, I remember them very clearly making it known that they believed this was very bad.

  I REALLY hope for your own sake that you can open up your mind (not so that we can brainwash you or MISLEAD you) but so that you can see what the real truth about "The Truth" is and not what you have been taught.

  "The heart is more treacherous than anything else and is desperate. Jer 17:9 NWT

  Very true. You must use every faculty available to you. Your thinking ability along with every perceptiveness that God gave to you. Thank you. I also noticed that you have used the NWT as yoiur source. I recall agreeing not to use this information on the internet in the license agreement. What do you think? Does anyone have the right to prevent any person from using what should be free to all? I think God's law might override the license agreement which should allow free usage of God's word.

  BB;...The WTS is in a position to teach bible truths because they have the tools set in place to do this.

  You can Live Forever on a Paradise Earth: 1989; Pg. 179 p.9

  Yes, for their excessive immorality the people of Sodom and of the surrounding cities suffered a destruction from which they will apparently never be resurrected.?2 Peter 2:4-6, 9, 10a.

  You can Live Forever on a Paradise Earth: 1982; Pg179 p9

  " Jesus showed that at least some of the unrighteous people of ancient Sodom and Gomorrah will be present on earth during Judgment Day. Although they had been very immoral, we can expect that some of them will be ressurected."

  Ro. 3:10 just as it is written: "There is not a righteous [man], not even one; 11 there is no one that has any insight, there is no one that seeks for God. 12 All [men] have deflected, all of them together have become worthless; there is no one that does kindness, there is not so much as one." NWT

  BB-

  Why are you concerned about the WTS copyright? They rip off everyone and everything, and when they give credit it is for a half truth or incorrect citation of a recognized authority. These guys don't deserve the time of day for who they are and you're worried about copyright... hmmm, do you realize the GB are killers with hands dripping blood.

  what_Truth?

  brown boy. I agree with your breakdown of some of the other churches. It's funny. I live in the projects across from a Victory outreach church. In my neighborhood the only people you ever see riding in a limo are the visiting VO pastors. That always struck me as a little crooked since they usually target gangbangers and junkies for their converts. Still, I did have a few problems with your answer. You say that people should use blind faith in following the main words and ways of Jesus until the truth is revealed. If I understand your reasoning correctly you are saying that we should contiue following the govorning body since, even though they have been wrong in the past are no doubt wrong about some things in the present, and will continue to be wrong in the future they will eventually get it right because they are sincere in their desire to lead their followers according to the will of God. One problem I have with this assertation is that following God isn't just suppose to benifit you in afterlife or post-apocolypse, it's also supposed to improve your life in the meantime. Now I'm not expecting that every JW is going to be dancing around with flowers in their hair, but the vast majority of the ones I've known are plagued with problems of mental illnes (especially depression), drug abuse, broken homes, divorce, and similar maladies at a far greater rate than so-called worldly people are. No matter how much "the light shines brighter as the day draws nearer" the sad state of JW's never seems to change (the stories of many of the people on this site will attest to that fact). I've also seen first hand how folling the teachings of Jesus as interpreted by the GB has been the direct cause of this misery. Now if someone experiences misery from following a certain course of action how can you reasonably expect them to keep following this course on the vauge promise that they will be rewarded with an everlasting life in which they will be expected to contiue following the same principles which made them miserable in the first place?

  Hi Sarah,

  There is a reason that they warn people about apostate sites. An innocent person without a good foundation can easily be pursuaded to do wrong. That is the reasoning behind it. Believe me when I say, I have been trained by my experiences and will not sway easily. It is righteous in God's eyes to do good. The brothers and sisters at the hall are receiving instruction. I will try hard to bring anyone back to a spiritual wellness. But there will be a time when enough is enough. Jehovah will let me know in my heart when that time is.

  As for you Sarah, please compare what you have learned to any other teaching. Please allow me to give you another point of view to what you may feel. I have experienced enough to have a good understanding and I am willing to share this with you. I am here to help those in need and who are willing.............have a great evening.

  I am not sure what your point is.

  It is always good in God's eyes to be upright about everything and have respect for everyone. I am not sure what you are referring to when you mention dripping blood. If you are willing to make an accusation, then you should always provide evidence so that you do not slander someones good name.

  If you have children you might be able to understand this in a larger perspective. Jehovah dealt directly with humans many years ago, and still many turned away from His ways. How much more so will people taking instruction from earthing man fall ? People have free will, and not all people are strong in faith. I have been weighed down before by this wicked world, and put complete faith in Jehovah. I have been blessed, without bragging, but state this in humility. Jehovah will take care of you if you believe in Him. This is what I mean when I state that I am a witness of Jehovah. I can testify to the fact that Jehovah will show you loving kindness if you choose to follow Him.

  One thing for sure, learn to serve God and not earthling man. Many have found themselves serving the organization instead of Jehovah. Do not let this happen, and do not let earthling man judge you. Learn to put up with your brother always showing love first, and you will be rewarded.
