  has anyone ever seen or heard or knew about something that was wrong in the cong.

  but never said anything because you were still under the influence?

  do you regret not saying or doing anything about it now?

  Interesting read, very controversial

  by New Castles in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  read something today, that i thought was very interesting.

  it screams in the face of thousands of years of christian belief.

  it expresses the authors belief that jesus's sacrifice was in vain.. "if i owe a person money, and cannot pay him, and he threatens to put me in prison, another person can take the debt upon himself, and pay it for me.

  ok funny question....i have a friend who used to get to the meeting drunk as a skunk sometimes and he'd play it off nicely.

  i do know of a couple of times he came stoned too.

  At the Memorial......

  by New Castles in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i did make it to the memorial with my wife this past sunday.

  at first everything was going the same as always...the talk, the passing of the crackers and wine, but then towards the end the brother giving the speech did something i had never seen.

  he was talking about how we could never pay a price for what christ has given for us...he then pulled a big wad of cash with what was clearly either a 20 or 50 on the front and flashed it to everyone in the audience.

  Ok, Question: Was there a comment made at a meeting that finally convinced.

  by New Castles in

  was there a comment made at a meeting that finally convinced you, this is not right?

  for me a couple of weeks ago was in the service meeting, they stated that if the children didnt finish their homework because they were studying the bible or at a meeting that teachers should understand that their meetings and study are more important.

  i looked at my wife and went "what"??
