Going to court.... I need info/advice please...
by outbutnotdown in
1. jw
2. friends
i haven't been real active here lately, but some might remember that i am going through a divorce with my ex, which, it seems will have to be terminated at a trial.

she is technically still a jw.... (not df'd but she publically despises the religion).. and her mother is a regular pioneer.

my ex is continuing to allow her mother to have a lot of influence over my kids, including that i recently found out that my oldest (of four) son's exercise book (that goes to school showing what he has been reading at home) had almost all the entries being from their, "greatest man who ever lived" book.

Have You Ever Heard This Explanation Why 144,000 is a Literal Number?
by Had Enough in
1. jw
2. friends
the speaker said tonight (yes i went to the memorial to appease my worried family .

well he said its very simple....the scripture talks about the lamb and the 144,000. it doesn't say lambs as in more than one....no, it says lamb referring to the "literal number of one lamb".. so thats how we know that the 144,000 is a literal number and not symbolic like all the rest of revelation.. ok....now am i going bonkers...or has anyone else every heard that explanation before?

i know i never have and that doesn't make any sense to me at all.. had enough

"You Should Be Loyal To The Organization Because It Taught You God's Name"
by minimus in
1. jw
2. friends
...so said my mother when she asked me to read the latest watchtower on "the apostates".

she said that because i learned "jehovah" was god's name and because "the organization taught" me this, i should, out of loyalty stay in the organization.

i did not want to get into the "jehovah" name thing but i said in return that if she strongly felt this way, then she should have remained a catholic.

Witnesses coming Saturday... I need HELP!!!!
by Globetrotter in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i got into a rather heated discussion this morning with my unbaptised but raised jehovah's witness wife.

we discussed so many things: feb 1 watchtower article on 607 and 1914, the un, beth sarim, blood, god's mouthpiece here on earth, etc.

this was yet another attempt on my part to try to plant a seed of doubt.
