  SON OF GOD

  by afriendnexdor in

  when the term son of god is in reference to the person of jesus christ, where in scritures does it refers to an act of creation.

  our undertanding of this very important queston, determine our understanding of the person and nature of jehovah himself.

  one cannot claim to have a relationship with the lord without fully undestanding the essential nature and personality of this lord.

  Even if they've heard of Jehovah...it may be difficult for many to leave their family's customs, culture, lose their national loyalty, perhaps leave their significant other because of what they hear and from whom they hear it, about an ancient Hebrew god. They may need more.

  Through The Grapevine Report on Recent Circuit Assembly

  i just got a call from my 'faded' sister who still has the 'pleasure' of having contact with our jw family.. my mother called her and said that she and our dad had their circuit assembly this weekend and apparently a governing body member gave a talk... that seems very odd to me.

  do governing body member usually speak at circuit assemblies?

  maybe it was a branch member?.

  From the talk I heard this last weekend, by the DO, it is obvious that many are "associating" with their disfellowshipped loved ones. They are disobeying the Governing Body/Faithful Slave. It's making the GB nervous.

  Since there is an ongoing "dumbing down" on the literature, I suspect they don't need to have much more than a HS degree. Perhaps that's another reason to keep them anonymous, to keep it from being said that a bunch of home-schoolers or dropouts are responsible for the drivel.

  Sorry to say, I think the folks on the "Writing Committee" are brilliant. They serve a purpose.
