  CAN WE BE BETTER THAN THE GOD WE SERVE?

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  be careful what you say god is and what he wants; you may be saying more about yourself than you realize.. it may well be our personal taste in religion is revelatory of our basic character.. _____.

  look at the devout islamist whose worship consists of blowing people up or cutting off heads.. contrast that to those hindi who sit with legs folded in their own lap contemplating bliss.. now contrast both the above to somebody who believes service to god is visiting the sick in hospitals.. _____.

  instead of there being 3 different gods served--there might only be an extraordinary unveiling of each person's heart and mind!.

  Words that irritate

  i have words that irritate me and not always without reason.. my latest hate is the word: 'solutions' as used by so many businesses in their title these days.

  y'know, 'something innane business solutions' and such balderdash.. i loathe that word now.

  arrrrggghhhhhh!

  I don't think Jehovah really expects us, or wants us to love him more than our family. If he or it exists, he probably just wants us to love.

  Why do you come here?

  by love2Bworldly in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i come here to learn, but i also come here because it feels like a private club and i'm privy to be a member of the "in" crowd.

  it's a great place to socialize.

  does anyone else feel that they are a member of a special "club" when they come here, that only some people in this world will understand the jw world?.

  Watchtower In The Window

  by watson in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  every time i see this new "logo", jw.org, i'm taken back to the days in the late 60's and early 70's when we used to put a watchtower in the rear window of our cars when on the way to our vacation..er, i mean, the district convention (that's what they called it back then).

  then, some years later we were "admonished" to not put the watchtower in the rear window of our cars while on the way to the dc.. how long before they council the "friends" to not bring "undo" attention to the organization?.

  boring subject?

  Was there an adjustment to the August WT, QTR at the new Circuit Assembly

  by Quarterback in

  there seems to be a rumour re, the qtr regarding the resurrection and remarriage.

  i know that the qtr states that the scripture refers to a heavenly resurrection, and so the survivors may remarry with their ressurected mate.

  somehow they modofied this at the circuit assembly.
