shouldn't it have been the person who gave you your bible study, that should have baptized you?
in matthew 28:19,20 it says "go therefore and make disciples, baptizing them in the name of the father, the son, and the holy spirit.. the way i see it, it should have been the one who gave you the biblical knowledge, that should have baptized you.
making disciples is phase one, and baptizing them is phase two.
Heh Kitty OFC, I never knew that Brother Holder baptized you, small world HuH.

Well Kitty Cat this is what you wanted, I see Bro Holder when dipping you in the water, never left you there long enough. Kitties like to swim, but eventually they give up. Ha! Are you not glad now you asked me to edit this.

my wify has been gone for two weeks, and i,m running out of skivies.
i havnt done laundry in years, anybody!
hot/ cold/ colors/ whites- i'm lost.
If You are in a hurry, and need skivies real quick, try a laundry mat, cost money, but does all loads all at once. Just make sure you seperate whites from coloureds, no javex in colours, no red socks in whites, cause then you will have pink skivies. GOOD LUCK. Yes mom's do help, sometimes. If you are really needing a pair of skivies, fill a sink with water, get out the soap and scrub a dub dub, one pair, hang them in the shower, and next day, bingo, you have a pair to wear.
i have read alot of the advice offered on this board and was hoping to broaden my thoughts on my problem any opinons will be appreciated.
i have been married for 3 years.
i don't have any children by this man but have 3 from a previous marriage.
If you stay with him, you will likely get emotionally drained, and your children are paying the price for his behaviour, I believe you would be better on your own. Some people just never seem to change and it is like a cycle that repeats itself over and over again, is this how you want to live, is this how you want your children to grow up. Keep your money sweetie, and move on. Three years should kind of give you an idea of changes that he is not going to make on a permanent basis.
I am having some bubblie
HaPpy NeW YeaRs To YoU AlL.
i was wondering if anyone would have any really great enlightenment from their own experience with gallstone attacks.
however, i had a wicked attack last night .
so, has anyone had this disorder and know any great solutions (short of surgery, which doesn't seem called for yet in my case) for avoiding these (ouch!
I have had in my younger years around age 24 terrible attacks, It would start around 11 p.m. and continue for a couple of hours, I would be pacing the floor, because I could not lie down, that would make it worse. It hits people differently, my neighbour had attacks that would have her rolling on the floor. I had gallstones, she had a gallbladder infection. Even so, they are both painful. I had the operation at age 25, I had many small gallstones, some of which they put in a container and gave to me, they resemble pebbles, octagon shape. If one of these stones gets stuck in your gallbladder duct, that is what causes the pain to start. The doctor said you get these from eating to much fried foods. Come to think of it, we did eat alot of fries, KFC etc. When I had the operation, I had to be careful of fat intake, certain foods caused a reaction, even though I no longer had my gallbladder. This only went on for a little while. While I was in hospital, they had me on a strict diet of skim milk, jello, things of this sort. At home if I ate peanuts or hot dogs, they would trigger a reaction. My doctor when he discovered I was getting gallbladder attacks in the beginning, told me to take Mylanta, seems I was downing that stuff all the time, it was the only thing that softened the pain. Now I understand they have Mylanta (extra strength)

from the bottom of our hearts:.
I know this is a busy season, but I want to take this time to congratulate you both, I hope you have a wonderful wedding day. Have a great holiday.

hi friends, my father died saturday morning.
i want to happily say that i sent my dad a print-out of some of your key material re;org, last week and he read it all...witnesses were 'on his back' lately, and he appreciated it.
keep up the positive focus..it is so important..i wanted to write more, but i guess i'm in shock 'cause i just can't do it...thanks to all of you for your support and help with all the stuff that i've been on the board about..peace and love to all of you and your families..nk
My deepest sympathy to you Nancy, so sorry to hear of the loss of your dad.
well, today is the first day of winter.
winter here in canada is cold and long.
we have about 4 to 5 months of damn snow every year.
I am definately not a winter person, I love to look at the beautiful lights and the sparkling snow, but when that temperature drops, I am snuggled up in a blanket to keep warm till the sun comes out. Put me by a fireplace and I am totally happy.
my mom raised us as witnesses, and finally left the wts after we grew up and left the house.
my dad left after too.
now my mom is so sorry about it all, and how we had to live, with my father an elder, the strictness, and of course all the things that a good witness family could not do.. how many of you raised your kids as witnesses?
Yes I did raise my kids in the truth, my husband howeve was not and never will be a JW. When they reached a certain age and expressed to me that they did not want to go to hall with me, I never pressured them and said that was fine, the choice was theirs to do as they wanted. It was never a forced issue to me.
