  how long to baptism?

  by lost truth? in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have recently started a bible study, and think that i may like to be baptised.. i was wondering how long does someone have to study before they are baptised?.

  also, i was wondering how many hours do people spend on their mission (door to door).

  i would be thankful for any help, as i am just like many, searching for awnsers.

  i don't know where the tradition came from, but down here in the south, it's traditional to eat cabbage, black-eyed peas, ham....and since cornbread seems to go so well with it...heh....wonder what it means....i know the cabbage is for luck with money in the new year, but not sure about the rest.. anyone else make any new year's resolutions?.

  Will the Watchtower Society help only Jehover Witnesses?

  that you may prove yourselves sons of your father who is in the heavens, since he makes his sun rise upon wicked people and good and makes it rain upon righteous people and unrighteous.

  for if you love those loving you, what reward do you have?

  are not also the tax collectors doing the same thing?

  okay you guys here is my story.....it might be a lil' long winded, but please bear with me....it's interesting.... well i have been away for 8 years...i stopped when i was 17 and i'm 25 now.

  it all started when i became a non baptized publisher at age 14. i was a very good speaker/reader.

  the elders were waiting for me to get baptized and encouraged me to do so.

  i just discovered this board today and let me just say it is a breath of fresh air!

  How have some experienced the love?

  by setfree in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i remember one time at an assembly these two "brothers" were actually arguing over thier seats.

  i thought they were going to go to blows.

  isn't it funny how during the regular meeting nobody wants to set in the front rows, but boy at an assembly everyone wants to have that "showy means of display" by being in the front rows to be seen by all?
