Maybe this was posted
by mouthy inbefore ...but anyway for those who didnt see it( if it was ).
jan15th 06 page 23 of the watchtower.
"because of listening to the devil & not rejecting his lies.the first human pair apostatized.so,then,should we listen to apostates,read theor literature ,or examine their web sites on the internet?if we love god& the truth,we will not do so.we should not allow apostates into our homes,or even greet them,for such actions would make us "sharers in their wicked works".

Good topic Mouthy. This advice should have been heeded by all those who listened to Charles Russell back in the late 1800s when he was presuaded to beleive (and teach) that Christ had returned in 1874. I recently read a book entitled "All Of Grace" written by CH Spurgeon back in the 1800s and it's amazing how clear and accurate in my oppinion the book was. Still has the ring of truth after all these years, unlike most of Russells writings. seek2find

Christian rock is starting to grow on me. I really like Casting Crowns and Third Day. Live Worship music is something that is sadly missing in JW world. seek2find

That we are thought by them to be saved by works and not by grace. More service = better chance for survivial into paradise. (See Eppesians 2:8,9 pasted below) seek2find
Eph 2:8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-- Eph 2:9 not by works, so that no one can boast. (NIV)

Will six screens end up like the quotes site?
by seek2find inhow long before the lawyers attack the new sixscreens of the watchtower web site?
i don't want it to happen but i bet it does.
if it does i hope it gets a lot of publicity before it actualy goes down.the site is extremely well put together and has some info that i never seen before like some of the info on the cross.

For what it's worth or isn't and to whom it may concern, I have no connections with the people behind the six screens site. I guess the reason it appeals to me is because I get the feeling that they are striving to maintain a Christian prespective away from the orginazation which is what I want to do also. Some people leave and become swept away by the free no God lifestyle, and if that's the way they want it, I can't change it. But, for me leaving a beleif system that one finds to be in error doesn't mean I have to leave God at the same time. So to sum it up. The only connection between me and the owners of six screens is that we both still want God in our lives. If some other anti-witness site does more for you, go for it, I can't stop you, nor would I try to. We all are endowed with freedom, how we choose to use it is a personal matter. Peace to you, seek2find

Wasn't part of the quotes suit that they said it caused embarasment to the Society? If that were the case, I think six screens should cause far greater "Embarasment". To lurkers here and others, I recomend looking around the site to see all of whats there. If the sound bothers you just turn down the volume. I really liked the explanation of John 1:1 in the video at the following link.

Ak Jeff: I felt the same way when I first went to the site, but after some exploring around I found what I felt was some really good info. The link below is the one I was reffering to about the Cross and torture stake. I never had seen that photo taken from one of the publications that showed Christians hanging on Crosses in the Roman events. I'm not to wild about the music and sound effects either, but if I get on a page where I don't like it I just hit the mute on my keyboard. seek2find http://www.sixscreensofthewatchtower.com/1torturestake.html
