A Curiosity

by ozziepost in

back in 1972 the wtb&ts published a new translation of the bible, "the bible in living english", otherwise known as byington's translation.. who was byington?.

the publisher's note tells us that steven t byington was born in 1868 and studied languages at a university and a theological seminary.

he was a member of the congregational church in massachusetts, usa and the translation was almost his lifetime's work.

WOULD YOU GIVE THE JW'S THIS?

by integ in

a jw relative brought out something i actually had to agree with.

we were discussing positive vs. negative aspects of the "truth".

she brought out that the witnesses do not participate in war, and i thought 'gee, that's probably a good thing'.

The lost congregation, or something else?

by spiritwalker in

while i have seen on many occasions the benefit of sharing our past problems, or life, with others who have been through the same.

i am very curious as to what the real benefit would be, to leaving a religion of such control and segregated thinking, only to venture online or in person to others who are basically a lost congregation of the religion.

does it benefit a person to seek out former jehovah's witnesses?

morty

welcome to the board spiritwalker....

All i have to say is..life is what YOU make it......you have to go out and meet or make them changes for your life,and only YOU can make that work..You will find this board is full of support and answers if you stay around.Most of us are honest here and you will not be shunned for your opinon or input.....again, welcome and enjoy your journey through life now because you are FREE!
