For what it is, or isn't worth, I was Diagnosed with MS in 1995 and have only taken one medicine off and on called Amantadine for fatigue. I haven't used any of the injectable drugs. I had a set of MRIs done this past summer and the doctor said they showed no new activity. I don't know why mine is not progressing, but I'm sure If I had gone on one of the injectable drugs I would be thinking it was helping. MS is a very strange illness it has no predictable pattern that happens in every case. They are all different like snowflakes. I feel very fortunate compared to what I know others suffer. I wish your Brother well. seek2find

Multiple Sclerosis
by 4mylove ini have a young sibling with ms. does anyone here know of any current treatment that hasn't been published yet?
i had heard at one point that there was a blood pressure medicine that was proving hopeful.
my bro is ready to stop copaxone, even though we all worry that this will eventually cause a relapse.

in defense of the Holy Trinity
by potentialJWconvertswife ini need some help on the holy trinity.
my husband is studying with the witnesses (he's not one of them yet), and is totally buying into the idea that god, jesus and the holy spirit are all separate, not (as i've tried to explain) separate, but also one in the trinity.
i have pointed out the scriptures in john that reference god as the word, and then jesus as the word later.

I agree with zico focus on Christ Deity instead of the Trinity. A few scriptures you could use are Isa. 43:11 "I-I am Jehovah, and besides me there is no savior." 2 Peter 2:1 "....by the righteousness of our God and [the] Savior Jesus Christ" (Note) The "The" in Brackets wasn't in the Greek text. Also ask him why the NWT uses the word "other" 4 times in Col 1:15-17 "He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation; 16 because by means of him all [other] things were created in the heavens and upon the earth, the things visible and the things invisible, no matter whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All [other] things have been created through him and for him. 17 Also, he is before all [other] things and by means of him all [other] things were made to exist, The bracketed words weren't in the original Greek here either. seek2find

What is your opinion?
by lavendar indo you think a witness is more apt to leave the wts because:.
1) ....of indisputable proof of the wts's falsehoods.. or.
2) .....something that personally happened to them that caused a disenchantment w/ the organization.. thanks for you input!.

Can the WTBTS change 1914 and survive?
by jefferywhat inthe society has changed equally as big doctrines in the past, but could this end the illusion?
i have read a lot of leolaia posts and have seen the attempt of scholar to counteract however unconvincingly.
im not after conspiracy, im after fact, could they move the end of the gentile times to 1934/35?

I fully agree with what Honesty says about the faithful slave teaching. It alone is the key to the survival of the organization. This was highlighted and emphasized in the talk at the DC this past summer. It was the last talk of the day on Friday and was called something like, "They follow the lamb wherever he goes" I a nutshell, it said that the "faithful slave" should be trusted no matter what. As long as they can convince the loyal to stay loyal to the "Slave", anything else can be changed with little impact. I expect to see the faithful slave teaching be more emphasized in the future and I think the talk will be put into a upcoming study article. In my opinion the "slave" has tried to take the place of the master, and will be severely punished upon the masters return.(See Matt.24:50,51) seek2find

Special announcement last night just for our area
by seek2find inwell, the letter was read and it applied to our area.
it seems that a lot of people that attend the district convention in our area are not following the rooming arrangements.
so the letter was strong wording about using just the rooms on the list even if it means traveling 45 miles to do so.

Blondie: That actually happened the way I understand. One of the non participating hotels provided a list of all convention delegates that stayed with them last year to the rooming department, to prove that they didn't need to participate in the "arrangement" in order to get the convention business. seek2find

Blondie ask about enforcement: Last night is was implied that the elders would be meeting with those whom they found out were making rooming arrangements outside the recommended list. The letter is to be kept in the congregation file for future reference in such cases. seek2find

Loyalty to the organization is the paramount thing to them. It's a messed up life in a messed up Religion. But it seems like I'm trapped inside, like an animal caught in a trap with no way to escape without chewing off my foot(my Family). Stay and keep family or leave and loose it all. Those are the choices. Neither one a good one. I have Faith that God will show me the answer and what his will is, in his due time. seek2find

I would also like to have either a transcript or audio, especially of the talk entitled "They follow the Lamb wherver he goes" that was given on Friday afternoon. That talk contained specific information that could be useful to me in my personal struggle to get out. seek2find
