we all sin and some sins are worse than others but blasphemy against the holy spirit is said to be unforgivable.what is considered to be an unforgivable sin?
firstly define the holy spirit
what is it
where is it
prove it is there
how can i sin against something that is in your mind?, my sin can only be based upon your terms, your thinking.
my mind has no thought of holy spirit therefore how can i sin against something i fail to find exist or even logical?.
I AM
now that is worth thinking about.
just imagine the panic.disbelief.oh my god they were right.then you pee in your pants.what will l do?the plea for forgiveness.please let me through.l promise l''ll change.l didn;t mean what l said on that jw.com site.l was jokin.then you wake up it was only a dream.disbelief turns to relief.
but it could happen..
god is like an alien - comes once every few thousand years goes beep beep then flies away. but inspires people to write a book by memory of the event hundreds of years later. then that collection of paper scraps is compiled by a group who have an agenda to control the world...
you would think after traveling millions of light years aliens would do more than that after all they are more intelligent than humans simply by having the means to get here?.
god, alien, lets light a bush, i mean jesus please, have you ever seen a tree catch fire by lightening? awesome power, scares the hell out of ya, easy to think a god is there when simply natural event. take a few mushrooms and god is everywhere.
bang it home people... take more prozac helps you to find god..
reading this and it made me think, god cannot do everything.
god is holy and he cannot.
sin.
is Sin not relative to who is controlling you?. no control no sin.
can someone help me understand how the wt came up with the overlapping generation theory?
i just don't understand it even though i read the information several times.
it's bewildering.
It means that when you spent the best part of your life living a lie that proved to be false, they had to make a change to cover their butts so they didn't look stupid.
They came up with ultra stupid, but you are not supposed to understand it, you are supposed to agree as you are a sheep.
If they cannot explain it how can we?
so about last night.... i am out at a local club (not restaurant, not event venue - a club) to see a rap concert.
now, i am with some friends minding my own business, and i find that i am standing right behind 3 active jw's - one of whom used to be my best friend.
this girl is as fake as they come: 1) she used to live with me and would bring non-jw guys home all the time, 2) was living with a man when she lived down south - until he dumped her, and then she decided to go back to jw's the 1st time and got reproved, and i supported her.
is it just me or does it grind your gears when you see #bestlifeever hashtag after every damn jw post on fb and instagram?.
i rarely get on instagram anymore because i dont want to deal with the jw propaganda but i swear sometimes i just want to comment on one of those pics 'jw life is the worst life ever wake up already'.
does anyone else know what i'm talking about?
when you post use these tags,
almost a year ago i moved back to the dallas - fort worth area after spending 16 years in the northern california area.
the area i live in has several nearby parks and walkways and these areas have several "share a book" pods mounted on a pole spaced about 1/2 mile from one another.
people are encouraged to add books they no longer use to these pods and to take one if they are interested.. i have been diligent on removing watchtower publications from them and what has surprised me is how many old publications in pristine condition are added almost on a daily basis.
we had an large incinerator, it took hours to burn them all.......
monthly report was still full though...
i have posted one other time on this website.
just for the mere fact that i wasn't anger and bitter and ready to declare the gb the sociopathic criminals that so many here ascribe to, my initial question digressed to bickering over ad hominem attacks against the gb and not my beliefs that i'm questioning.
some did give me some help on my questions.
ex jw cult is free. no rules. happy to be free, to think for myself.. you go back to your crutch and enjoy it, maybe it is what you need.
but remember coming here is a SIN for you. that is NOT freedom. enjoy!
it's the forum's 16th birthday today!.
amazing that not only have we lasted so long but we're still thriving and growing.. thanks to all the people and often colorful characters who've contributed to the site over the years.
some are still here with us, some have since moved on, but all have touched each others lives in some way along our different journeys.. .
check the news.
there was a terrorist attack in brussells, couple of bombs detonated in the brussell airport and the metro.. 36 dead so far.. i send my sincerest condolences to the people of belgium.. the motive seems to be revenge for the capture of the last surviving member of the paris terrorist attacks..
Smiddy,, IS is ISLAM, Sunni v Shia.
