  Arthritis pain. What works for you?

  by Fisherman in

  there are several prescription meds people use to relieve the pain of arthritis.

  they work by suppressing the immune system or by reducing inflammation.

  people also use otc anti-inflammatory pills, and even anti-allergy pills are reported to work because of being able to also reduce inflammation but people tell me that they are concerned to use some meds regularly because of potential side effects in long term use.

So, I was wondering if anyone can share how they deal with the pain of arthritis or suchlike autoimmune diseases and if they’ve found something not placebo or panacea that works for them.

  A new generation of anointed that will not pass away.

  obviously, the older “ anointed ” from 1914 died.

  and because they were anointed, they hopefully went to heaven.

  in the first century though, a newer generation did not replace the old.

  • Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and associate with an organization with headquarters in New York and work hard for your gift of salvation.

    I answered that in my previous posts.

    You have not made a reply to my answer. But no pressure, you have a right to keep asserting your view.

  Perhaps to your satisfaction.

  You don’t need to like the answer, only need to challenge it not by repeating the same assertions over and over again. As if by filibuster would validate you belief by reasserting your position and not by rebuttal.

  is there any new music or singers whatsoever nowadays or just junk?

  and how about movies, besides documentaries is there anything at all, any movie at all, any new actor at all that that has any real worth to watch and enjoy or is it all a boring waste of time.

  There are tons of famous songs and actors and singers that are known nationally and some internationally from the 1900s. Now, nothing.

  Movie and music studios aren't looking for great sounds and great stories. They have corporate formulas.

  Zero actors and singers too,

  If that's the case, why are you "working hard for the reward of eternal life"?

  I’ve already answered that.

  we remember the good stuff and forget that 90% was always crap.

  I agree that we didn’t like every song and movie decades ago but we respected it. And we could look forward to new hits and bands and great movies all the time. —Its all over now. Unless you can point to something of worth nowdays.

  Hi Van,

  I cited the verses instead of quoting them. I also explained and responded to your argument.

  WT never teaches that salvation can be earned by works of “theocratic services”. Such works are like sacrifices to God like that of the early christians helping people with the good news and knowledge of the Messianic kingdom but such works do not replace obedience and the practice of love (although theocratic service and works is evidence of love). —The verses in Mark I cited explain the standard doe salvation and christian living is an application of the that standard to the higher degree that Jesus enjoined on christians on the sermon on the mount. We @ JW practice christianity by our interpretation of Bible principles and also by our theocratic works. But ultimately salvation is a free gift of God that we can never merit.

  “Salvation we OWE to our God, who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb.”

  Van all you are doing is reasserting your one sided view without considering the verses referenced in my posts.

  I already responded to your belief that once you are saved that you cannot lose that salvation or need to do anything for it.— Unless you turn to doing evil which your explanation would be not being saved to begin with. I am not going to repeat my same argument again or flood this post by quoting the entire Bible here.
