A Loving organization?

by startingover in

last saturday an old friend of ours took her life.

she and her husband had almost been married 25 years, and we had known her longer than that.

she was like a little sister to my wife.

The universe, designed to support life?

by Elsewhere in

jw
friends

i have heard many creationists say: "just look at the universe!

there are so many things about it that have to be just right for it to be able to support life.

an interesting point, so i did a bit of basic math:.

Else, please post the link that supports your math.

Are we to be Angels or merely mankind?What did Jesus mean?

by ko38 in

that is a question i would have never asked even a month ago.being raised a jw how could you not know the answer?they told me time after time after time that we have an earthly hope.we can live forever in a paradise without sickness or death.

(that sounded great to me).as i'm sure all of you are aware the wtbts has some rather selective interpretations of scripture.these are easily proved to their captive audience, i mean their followers by using their own translation of the bible.. what i'm having a problem with is understanding who goes where?.

the jws believe that the annointed go to heaven and the great crowd benifit by being associated with these annointed by gaining eternal life on earth.thus they are saying that the entire greek scriptures apply only to the annointed.

Is it possible that we are the generation that these will occur?

i tried to send my message but it went to inbox.. i am new to forum, and am not sure if this is where i want to be.

i have no trust in any organization, as a hierachy exists in them all.

possibly even here.

Peggy,

THere are many people who never felt deserving of approval from their maker.I was one for sure.Not because I was a sinner,(which i of course was) but because i saw so many that had more faith or love or more hours than i did.

Well i'm here now and i feel more worthy than ever before and so should you.PLease read the book crisus of conscience by Ray Franz,ex member of the governing body.It can be purchased at freeminds.com or amazon.com or you can order it.(It will definately help you).

Just to show how badly I reacted to finding out the jw's were wrong, click on my post topics and you will see how i felt in the beginning.Please know that you are a child of God and deserving of every blessing he has to offer.Faith in the sacrifice of Jesus is very im portant IMHO.

I think i speak for everyone here when i say that we will be glad to do whatever we can to support you whatever your choice is.(well short of being a SATAN worshipper).BEST of luck to you.Havent said luck in a while have you.

If you ever have questions and dont want to post there is a private message section you can use to talk to who ever you want. see ya ko38

Interesting take Navigator.I agree that life on earth could be a kind of purgatory,who knows.We are lost souls no doubt.I wonder though if there is something else?If there is will we remember our time here on earth?

Everyone has their own belief and i respect that,but i dont respect the borg for praying on the ones that want so much to have their message be true, yet not to materialise
