atheists and the like are welcome to read along, but please keep this thread to the believers.

i'm looking for your "testimony" if you will.

what have you experienced in your life that you attribute to god or jesus or whoever?

I believe in god also. Im still waiting to see if he will bless me or not. (probably not) Guess I have to wait and see if I will be living on that paradise earth or not. I have prayed, and felt he heard and answered me. But I cant say I liked the answer I got. DFing.

speaking in tongues....words with meanings or jibberish sounds?

by sad and lonely in

hi my sister and brother-in-law who claims to be a preacher,see visions,and who claims god sends him messages,say that speaking in tongues isn't words anyone can understand but the one who's doing it.and only he can tell the people what he was saying.i didn't a gree with him.i trying to show him a scripture i read,about the flames coming over the congrgations head..(i'm not really good yet with finding scriptures on my own)but i know i read it!

he said i don't understand because i'm not in the carnal(being at gods level of understanding..as he is!

) i witness it recently when my brother-in-law was in the icu from a heart attack.his sista was at frist praying,then she started making those crazy sounds...i almost ran out!...it scared the crap out of me!...i don't believe thats from god...can anyone help with scriptures for me to show my family what speaking in tongues really is?...thanks!

Also 1 corinthians 14:9-11

In the same way also, unless you through the tongue utter speech easily understood, how will it be known what is being spoken? You will, in fact, be speaking into the air. It may be that there are so many kinds of speech sounds in the world and yet no kind is without meaning. If, then, of the speech sound , I shall be a foreigner to the one speaking, and the one speaking will be a foreigner to me.

And 14:5 says it should be translated.

I've avoided the elders so far...but could this all change on SATURDAY?

well, it has been almost three years since i silently and dramatically vanished from the world of the watchtower.

moving an hour away from my congregation's territory and not answering phone calls was all i needed to avoid having to wear the letter "a" on my chest.

but, that could all change this saturday.
