People can take it for wat they want; it's EMPHASIS.
It all starts with YOU: think you were an accident of nature?
could have been...a lot of us were.

Faith-Apostasy-Atheism
by DoubtingThomas ini have been on m any different forums, and only carm is similar to this.. all the rest have rather hypocritical trust in god.. this and carm are for those who apostate to the wtbs and to god.. turned off by the gb, or hypocritical examples in the congregation, they drop worshiping god and their belief in the bible... for they know too much,.
that's why scripture isn't discussed, and jws like me, are demonized.. i am cool with that!
maybe some of you will come to their senses!.

No- stan, I KNOW.
in case you dont KNOW..typing in capitals is considered as SHOUTING..and therefore RUDE
But if you can refrain from shouting your replies--please take time to explain how you know. I'm sure some of us would like to know how you know.

DT - PO- then you are a rare case when someone falls for church deception after losing faith (in men).
Your comment sounds rude, sanctimonious, mean and patronising. Was that your intention?
If not what is your intention with your comment?
I'm glad i'm not the only one to think this. Doubting Thomas seems to come across as aggressive - looking for a verbal punch up.

They why did you 'sign-up'?
if you mean why did i join the cult ? I had no choice--mother got religion when i was pre-teen. Everything i did in the cult was to please her--or out of fear of being destroyed--then to please girlfriend / wife who i married to have sex with. She was a 3rd gen born in. I Finally stood up to them and walked when i was in my early 20's.
They why did you 'sign-up'?
or--if you mean sign up on here? Mixed reasons. But i dont get involved in bible thumping or arguing with god squad types.

New World Translation is not much different other translations
by Abraham1 inkey scripture 2 timothy 3:16 should have been translated as “every scripture inspired of god is also profitable for teaching” like many other serious translations (such as american standard version ; douay-rheims bible etc) as it is what the greek text says.. this is in harmony with the contents of bible and also with the writer paul himself who knew after his departure ‘even from his own number men will arise and distort the truth.’ (acts 20:29-30) for example, verses such as romans 7:19 is such distortion.
such verses cannot originate from real paul who was “holy, righteous and blameless.” (1 thessalonians 2:10) hence paul had the freeness of speech to tell others to be “blameless” like him (1 thessalonians 5:19-23; ephesians 5:24) there are many things in the scriptures which are not inspired such as words of satan, words of job’s wife and his false friends, words of judas, lot’s daughters …etc.
apostle peter never disowned jesus because if he had done so, his contemporaries would have interrupted him when he rebuked jews, saying: “you disowned the holy and righteous one and asked that a murderer be released to you.“ (acts 3:14) his listeners would have asked him “what right do you have to reprove us for ‘disowning jesus” when you yourself have done it first?” all such verses or accounts were later adoptions.

Yes--Bigmac. When the site was overhauled a few years back--quite a few of us could no longer log in. I had to create a new account.
