  Covid Vaccine

  by sloppyjoe2 in

  2. medical

  i may be mistaken, but wasn’t there a governing body video where one of them said something along the lines of you don’t trust that the vaccines are safe do you really believe that the governing body is the faithful slave?

  perhaps i imagined this but i thought something like this was said.

  this year will be my first for by going to the memorial.

  i will get asked by my parents how i can deny jesus even if i don't believe the end is close.

  my thoughts on this are as follows, bear in mind saying it's all make believe is not an option.. i think that jesus intended for everyone to eat the bread and drink the wine.

  The 1995 Generation Change

  by sloppyjoe2 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was just a teenager and have a vivid memory of sitting in a chair doing a microphone for the sunday meeting.

  everyone was commenting that it didn't mean the end was far off, and it didn't change the condition of the dead, or the 144,000, or the trinity so we should still remain faithful.

  this is my first memory as a kid being just a teen that i ever had a single doubt.

  Two questions for all "apostates"

  by sloppyjoe2 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  did any of you have a family member or close friend become an apostate first and you shunned them for it only to eventually see the light?

  if so, how did your eyes become opened?

  How to change some significance of 1914.

  by sloppyjoe2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i first do not think they will change anything about 1914 for at least 20 or more years but one day it will have to happen.

  since 1914 is their meal ticket and they have it in print prior to the year happening, they will never abandon the year altogether.

  they have too much tied into 1914-1919 as well as have held onto it for too long.

  Satan was right

  by sloppyjoe2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  from the draw close to jehovah book in chapter 11 paragraph 10 it says this:.

  10 to find out why god allows suffering, we need to think back to the time when suffering began.

  when satan led adam and eve into disobeying jehovah, an important question was raised.

  Did they believe in Heaven?

  by sloppyjoe2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  psalms 17:14 rescue me with your hand, o jehovah, from men of this world,* whose share is in this life,+ those whom you fill with the good things you provide+ and who leave an inheritance to their many sons.

  15 but as for me, in righteousness i will see your face; i am satisfied to awaken in your presence.

  *+as a jw i was always under the impression that prior to jesus death, all those who died had an earthly hope of resurrection.
