  The Best One-liners for Witnesses

  by gordon d in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  what have been the most effective reasons that you've given to the people that you love for why you're no longer a witness?

  considering that most dubs have the attention span of a 2 year old for anything from an a-prostate, please be consise and succint with your answers.

  just trying to plant some seeds of reasoning.... maybe in-depth discussions with those folks will come at a later time.

  I've used this one a few times and I'm sure I'll be using it again. It's simple. Jesus said at John 14:6 that he is "the Way the truth, and the Life" The Watchtower Society says they are the way the truth and the life.(That is in a nutshell the message of the KN37 tract). Which way is it? Do we want to follow Jesus as our Lord and Savior, or a man made orginization? seek2find

  by Lo-ru-hamah in

  2. bible

  do you have a favorite translation?

  king james, niv, or others that i might not of heard of that are perhaps more poetically written.

  or a style/version that you particularly like?.

  I'm reading throught th NIV right now, but I'm not sure at this time which will be my favorite, I'm comparing many others also, however I am seeing the many flaws in the New World Translation. I don't see how it can be said to be accurate, when the meaning has been changed in so many places to fit the Witnesses beleifs. A person could actualy form different beliefs than what the Watchtower teaches strictly by reading a different translation of the Bible other than the NWT. seek2find

  why does the soceity have the kn37 message available in sign language on there web site but not a print version, can't people that don't hear still read?

  and if the message is so important shouldn't it be the main topic there?

  i don't get it.

  IS/ WAS YOUR CONGREGATION LIKE MY CURRENT ONE?

  by enlightenedcynic in

  2. experiences

  in the congregation i currently attend with my die-hard witness wife and my two kids, the p.o.

  is a lame duck elder whom no one really respects or goes to for any counsel, advice, etc.

  another elder(lives at bethel) has taken to flirting with a local sister who is seperated but not divorced from her husband.

  I concur with the thoughts of a youth group. I keep hearing about all this "concern about our youths", but nothing is being done except telling them "more service more meetings more personal study". How about group studies just for the young ones? Where they can honestly share their feelings with one another? seef2find

  JW's and the Approved spiritual music

  by gordon d in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know that no song other than one of those toe-tappin' hits that are fds approved will ever be sung at a kh but who here has found any (biblically accurate) up-lifting songs?.

  one of my most favorite is by casting crowns, entitled "who am i".

  here's the link, if you haven't heard it..... [url]http://witsgoeilh.tripod.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/castingcrownswhoami.mp3[/url].

  Hey Gordon, I think you may mean Rich Mullins. His song "Sometimes by Step" was my first introduction to Christian Music, I felt like God had me hear that song one morning right after a prayer I had said. That was the most spiritual moment I ever had. I was even more impresed when I read his life story. He was killed in a wreck in the late 90's. What a loss. seek2find

  Hey Gordon, Glad to see another Casting Crowns fan here. I also like the song "who am I". I went to Walmart last week and bought the cd/dvd of theirs called lifesong live, and I beleive that was the best 14 dollars I ever spent. The song and video to "does anybody here her" is great. seek2find

  TO: On the way out, So I guess the method of delivery is the Paramount thing. So much for the importance of the message, huh. seek2find

  Society's viewpoint of other bibles

  by Zico in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i like this quote, from page 145 of theocratic ministry school book about using other bibles.

  'you must realize, however, that some bible translators have taken liberties with god's word.

  their renderings may not conform in all respects to what was in the original bible languages.

  I guess it could be said that they must not be to much against other translations or they wouldn't quote from them. I would like to know why they have'nt come out with their version of a chain refference or study bible. How about a bible with strongs numbers. Oh wait, maybe that would show how biased the NWT is in some places. seek2find
