My life after Bethel

by new boy in

thank you for this place in cyber space, this is therapy for me.

there is something about writing things down, that helps put things in perspective........ the day i left it was pouring rain........i really screwed up, i found out the night before, as i was packing things up, that i had way under estimated how much stuff i had.

i had two large suit cases (that i could barely shut the lids on) and a large army duffel bag.

I think there's a whole new batch of dubs at the Newport Hall now. Don't recognize any of the names. Think they either replaced the joint or did a rehab recently. You should've had the honeymoon on Hog Island...at least you would've had some privacy and saved some $$$.

does anybody have any quotes from wt literature about the gnostics?

Kaput

From the All Scripture is Inspired of God and Beneficial book, Bible Book Number 62, 1 John, pgs. 256-257: John writes to protect his "beloved ones," his "young children," against the wrong teachings of the "many antichrists" that have gone out from among them and that are trying to seduce them away from the truth. (2:7, 18) These apostate antichrists may have been influenced by Greek philosophy, including early Gnosticism, whose adherents claimed special knowledge of a mystical sort from God.

Let me know if you need more.

Gimme your Best Shot.

by Frannie Banannie in

i've been re-thinking about what to say when jw's come knockin'.

i've thought about what the scriptures say about jesus' words to the pharisees and think perhaps i might say, "i don't have any interest in the doctrines and writings of the scribes and pharisees of the wts.".

or maybe i could just say, "yall're just wts nazis and you look down on everyone else as if they were jews during wwii, so i'd prefer not to converse with you.".

Frannie;

Just hand 'em a copy of Paul Hoeffle's NGO letter. That'll be your witness to them. 'nuff said.

i don't want it to happen but i bet it does.

if it does i hope it gets a lot of publicity before it actualy goes down.the site is extremely well put together and has some info that i never seen before like some of the info on the cross.
