Still an active Witness. As for stillajwexelder maybe this is why people on the outside have bad images of Jw. Still go to the meetings and put on a show of Godly devotion but outside being just the opposite.

Somethings just not true!
by defd inive been here for sometime now.
long enough to know that some peoples hatred toward th wtbts and some of its members are based on wrong information.
for instance: ive read on hear many times that the wt promotes the idea that everyone whos not a witness are not friend material or will be destroyed at armageddon.

No I do not count time. Thats pretty silly! I do have an open mind. Some comments I dont respond to because I am Not really into arguing. Granted at times I do get caught up in it, but for the most part i dont. I personally think this topic has run its course. I stated my thoughts and asked for ya'lls and here we are almost a hundred posts later. I wont be commenting on this perticular post any more. I'll try to think of a different subject to talk about (which may be hard seeing that we Jehovahs witness cant think for ourselves)

Please refute: There is ONE true God, one creator, one savior
by M.J. ini am curious, what explanations are there for the scriptures that affirm the existance of only one true deity, in light of christ's affirmed deity (jn 1:1, is 9:6)?
other than the conclusion that the deity spoken of could be inclusive of christ?
(perhaps in the sense of john 10:30--"i and the father are one").

The bible is very clear as to the identity of Jesus and Jehovah.

You know blondie I do not worry about what the elders might have to say about me when I KNOW I am doing the right thing. If they want to black ball me or take away a priviledge, my mind set is Let them! There is one thing they cannot take away from me and that is my love for God and Jesus and the things I do for them and thats all that really matters in the end. Right?

When the Bible counsels us to "work what is good toward all," that includes those who do not share your Christian beliefs. (Galatians 6:10) So being careful about choosing your close associates does not mean that you should act as if you were superior to others. (Proverbs 8:13; Galatians 6:3) Such conduct would reflect poorly on your Christian beliefs.
Whats wrong with that undercover? They are telling us NOT to be that way. That is great guidence. Just because alot of Witness do not follow that guidence it is not the fault of the Slave.
Some Christian youths, however, have gone further than being pleasant; they have formed close bonds with individuals who have little or not interest in spiritual things. ; Dan, mentioned earlier, had become a very good roller skater. ; The people he began to associate with regularly at the local rink were not Christians. ; Eventually, Dan joined his new "friends" iin engaging in immoral conduct and experimenting with drungs. ; Realizing that his lifestyle was no longer compatible with Christianity, Dan abandoned his ministry and stopped attending congregation meetings. ; It was several years before he gathered the strength to make the necessary changes to return to true worship.
What wrong with this undercover? It is a warning from the bible. Do not parents warn there own kids about the friends they make. Would you allow your son or daughter to hang out with someone who did drugs and was a gang member and ran the streets?, all the things we teach our children not to do. That is all the Slave is doing WARNING us of the dangers that exist, no different!
Since all humans are made in God's image, it can be expected that some who do not know Jehovah will manifest fine qualities. ; As a result, you may find some people to be respectable, even likable, although they do not worship the true God. ; Should you completely shun such ones simply because they are not acquainted with Bible truths?
What is wrong with this. They are trying to wake some up here. If you finished the thought instead of cutting it off the answer would be no. -
