  I'm sure your sweet baby girl will be precious so why not give her a name to reflect that: Gem, Jewel,Diamond, Ruby, Topaz, Opal, Pearl,Sapphire, you get the idea.

  i am new to the site.

  i started perusing it this weekend and wish i had found it 10 years ago when i was on my way out.

  anyways, long story short, was df'd for you guessed it...fornication or "loose conduct" even though i had been a pioneer with an elder father, grandfather and uncle and no previous issues.

  answer at the hall "its all illuminate!"

  by purrpurr in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i probably havnt spelt that right but anyway the other week a bro at my hall answered up saying that he had done research into the lives of these "rock and roll" stars and that he had discovered that they all belonged to a demon controled, satan worshipping secret cult called the illuminarte!

  therefore we must steer clear of popular music because of the secrect demonic lyrics that it contains!!.

  of course everyone nodded in agreement and the study conductor thanked him for his "fine" comment!.

  The story of the girl sacrificed at the temple?

  by Crazyguy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i'm sorry i don't remember her name but in the story her father promises god the first from his house would be sacraficed.

  as many know here she was indeed killed and not just given over to temple service.

  proving this to a jw would be hard, but i'm wondering was there ever a mention of woman being used at the temple other then when the temple was also a place for asherah worship?

  The daughter of Jephtha didn't even have a name. She was just another expendable victim of the blood thirsty God of the Bible.

  Let us Reason - "Masters over your faith".

  by lambsbottom in

  2. beliefs

  (2 corinthians 1:24) not that we are the masters over your faith, but we are fellow workers for your joy, for it is by your faith that you are standing.. nwt.

  i would love to ask an elder: what, exactly, would it look like if someone was a "master over your faith?

  how would you tell whether someone was a master over your faith?.

  The GB are masters over the education, employment, dress and grooming, sex life, choice of entertainment, medical treatment, etc. of the rank and file JWs. How could they find the time to be masters over their faith as well?

  Hi Smart

  "Keep being not afraid or is that keep not being afraid": this is just my corny way of saying that even though I'm not sure of the grammatically correct to say it, I'm glad you're no longer afraid and hope you stay that way
