JH, yes, I still believe that only one God created the universe. The order and consistancy lends credence to the Bible's teaching of only one true creator.
I believe that Jesus was from God.
I still hope the paradise will come. I dont even care when it will come. I dont care if it will come in my lifetime.
I still dont believe in hell fire torment after death.
I believe death is just sleeping or unconsciousness.
I believe God plans for a resurrection to life.
I believe there will be a judgement day on earth.
Come to think of it there is alot I still believe.
But this forum is not a safe place to openly discuss these beliefs.
T.S. will read this and jump all over me for believing what he calls garbage.
pm me if you want to discuss this more JH.
Or anyone who wants to talk about returning, please click on my name and write to me.
Is there anything that "only the JW's preach" you still believe in?

No.
I started believing what the bible says and it contradicts the Jw's teachings.

No T.S. we cannot be "friends" yet. Although you are very handsome, I cannot trust you yet.
Let's see over time how tolerant you are to those who still have some affection for the WBTS.
You see, I believe some here have been terribly hurt and offended by their experience in the society.
A HUGE WALL OF RESENTMENT stands in the way of seeing anything positive about it.
I understand that. I accept that. I have said many times in many posts that people will dissappoint us.
People err. People stumble us.
Also, many just think religion is crazy! I respect that view too.
I would never viciously attack anyones view.
I actually wish I could break free like some say they have and live my life apart from God and scripture and a hope for the future. It seems so simple.
But I cannot. I find soul satisfying hope that I seem to soak up like a sponge when I read the Psalms.
Anyway, I am here because I have enjoyed reading yours and others posts. You write so freely and speak your mind with conviction. I like that. I'm happy for you.
But T.S. I am rather a tender spirit who cannot take the heat of debate and arguing and who will shrivel and die if attacked here. I saw what happened to Dfd and I was horrified by it.
Peace to all,

I don’t believe in hell. I suppose that could be categorized as a Witness teaching. I’m not too sure about heaven. I certainly don’t believe that humans can live forever on a paradise Earth. Even stars die.

Darth reminded me,
Yes, I would agree with their position that there is no hell, and that the dead are "conscious of nothing at all". I agree with their recognition that pretty much all holidays have pagan origins (and I now 'celebrate' all of them! LOL). That would be about it....

I still believe there is no life after death.

I believe the seven trumpets of Revelation were the seven Jehovah's Witness District assemblies from 1922 to 1928, starting with Cedar Point, Ohio and ending with Detroit, Michigan, only they weren't called Jehovah's Witnesses then but since Jehovah picked them in 1918 he waited until 1931 to give them his name.
