  do you agree with this statement by the org?

  by PaNiCAtTaCk in

  this was taken off the jw-media website

  conscience

  jehovah's witnesses avoid making rules and regulations beyond those provided in the scriptures, and they do not follow traditions that contradict bible teachings.

  No I don't. The KN 37 tract says kinda the same thing, about all beleifs based on the Bible. Try to convince some who have been disfellowshipped for years and have made unsucessfull atempts at geting re-instated of this. The new Orginazation book states that elders should wait a "year or even longer" before re-instating someone, but no scriptual support is given. Contrast this with the Biblical example of the Fathers forgiveness in the prodical son parable. It's just as Ray Franz pointed out in the "Witnesses of Jehovah" movie refering to Jesus words in Matthew where, refering to the Religious leaders of His day, it says that they have made the word of God null and void by their traditions. seek2find

  there is a e-mail that is circulating in jw e-mail groups that is very disturbing, at least it is to me.

  i was wondering if any here have seen it and what your thoughts are.

  it's called thewholeworld3mb.wmv i don't know how to upload it so it can be seen or i would do so.

  Leolaia, I like the points you bring out. The thing that disturbs me the most is that JWs aren't supose to listen to any religious music that is not put out by the Society, but in this case, It's OK because it serves a purpose that glorifies the JW view. It's sickning. I have been finding much comfort and spirtual encouragement in Christian Music, that I never was allowed to listen to before. It's opened a whole new world to me that I never knew that existed. seek2find PS along the lines of Christian music, I was really impressed by the CD/DVD combo set called "Lifesong live" by Casting Crowns

  It's like stillgroggy says. It's being sugested that witnesses send it to co-workers and tie it in with the tract campaign. It wouldn't be so bad except the music it's set too. seek2find

  Can someone recommend a good 'Christian' forum?

  by AK - Jeff in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i still consider myself a christian, and would like to find a forum where good discussions about faith and christianity are featured.

  i love the give and take here - and will not be abandoning this forum - i just want to add a dimension to my spiritual thinking that seems missing at the moment.

  i do not attend church.

  Does It Bother You That Some Posters Give Misinformation???

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  i don't like the fact that at times, false information is disseminated here.

  where's the "big announcement in october"???

  or we hear that the blood issue will be changed or that something big is going to be happening at the next assembly.

  Hello, Might I sugest that just because someone doesn't post again right away doesn't necesarliy mean they don't appreaciate the advice they are given. Some would simply rather Read rather than post. Some also may be limited for time to post and do so properly, some forget their passwords and so on. And then again it's easy for a new one to get lost here in tha many postings. Sometimes I loose track of where I posted. Just some things to think about. seek2find

  Hi, I'm going on 11 years and still not out. I've stayed for Family. I agree with the Statement about Crisis of Conscience, it's a good read. Good luck, seek2find
