  Julia:

  You have to get your thinking in line with the Faithful and Discreet slave and stop looking for flaws in Jehovahs organisation.

  That sentence is a good indication that someone has been drinking gallons of kool-aid.

  JWism is just an updated 21st century version of Peyton Place.

  Been there done that.

  Tell him.

  He'll eventually find out you knew and then he will never trust you again.

  It's time for some more TATT..

  What does hubby think about Michael the archangel being Jesus?

  After making purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.
  So He became higher in rank than the angels, just as the name He inherited is superior to theirs.
  Hebrews 1:3-4

  Michael is the only angel that is called an archangel in God's word.
  
  Archangel means chief or principal angel.
  
  If Jesus was Michael the archangel then He would have already been higher in rank than the angels before making purification for sins.

  Bethel doesn't look after it's own

  by ekruks in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  it's not only springsteen's latest song that is inaccurate, but bethel certainly doesn't look after it's own.. i know it's very easy for us to what to criticise bethel after our experiences, but if we are reasonable with the wbts and approach this with an open mind, can we conlude it's fair how bethelites are treated?.

  i know with any company if an employee breaks the rules, they have to leave.

  being fair, i can't wave a finger at bethel for telling those who break rules, sin, etc., to leave.

  Casually mention that in the current economic climate only an idiot would give up a good job and move

  to parts unknown in hopes of finding another good job.

  I think the July 15, 2013 Watchtower may cause them to think hard when it is studied at the hall.

  Suspicious asks:

  Do most here feel God exists? What's your guys view of the bible?

  I believe that God exists.

  I believe that the bible is God's message to humans in an effort to reconcile our relation with him.

  Are we not already dead to them? Yes.

  Have we not been labeled apostate by them? Yes.

  Have we not been shunned by them? Yes.

  Do you owe them any assistance? No.

  Let them take care of their own.
