Do You Enjoy Being "Part of the World"???

by minimus in

jw
friends

since before a witness gets baptized, they are told to "be no part of this world".

that is beaten into everyone's head.

now that you're not a jw or are on the way out, how does being part of the "world" feel?

Frannie Banannie

OMG! I thought they said "Beano pardons the Whirled (Gnu-Whirled)".....It's a GAS!!!

Some People Enjoy Being Jehovah's Witnesses For Various Reasons

by minimus in

jw
friends

some individuals truly enjoy being jehovah's witnesses.

i think about those that would have liked to be in acting.

well, having a part in a demonstration in the service meeting or giving a talk in the theocratic ministry school gives one the opportunity to act, be melodramatic, show a little comedic talent,etc.

Frannie Banannie

Sorry, Minimus....now that I'm out, I can't imagine *how* anyone could possibly enjoy neon light which "bulbs" are toxic and ever-changing, faux/conditional friendships, the constant threat from a vengeful god hangin' over their heads and havin' to constantly keep up a facade of purity in order to maintain acceptance...along with always coming under scrutiny for one's words, thoughts and/or deeds by the judgMENTAL....unless, of course....they're into an S&M existence, that is....

God's Appearances in the Old Testament

by hooberus in

"and the lord appeared unto him in the plains of mamre: and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day; and he lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground, and said, my lord, if now i have found favour in thy sight, pass not away, i pray thee, from thy servant: let a little water, i pray you, be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree:" genesis 18:1-4. comment: the lord (hebrew yhwh) appeared in the form of a man with feet to abraham.. .

and upon the nobles of the children of israel he laid not his hand: also they saw god, and did eat and drink.

" exodus 24:9-11 .
