his faithful servants--only jws, not "so-called" christians.

7 a second point that we can draw from peter's words is that jehovah is patient because he desires all to attain to repentance.

"consider the patience of our lord as salvation," wrote peter to fellow christians.

I know alot has been said, but...

2. bible
i know that much has been said about the 3-15-06 wt study article on false religion, but i wanted to add my two cents because of the way that it affects my situation.. i realized a long time ago that this wasn't the "truth", but i only allowed myself to acknowledge this fact two years ago.

since then i have been trying to figure out what that realization meant for my faith in god and religion.

i have more answers now than i did two years ago, but my search for meaning and understanding continues and probably will for the rest of my life.

Email I received off mum
by Es in
1. jw
2. friends
hey all, i usually pop into my folks once a week so that my son can see his grandparents.

anyway last week my dad asked if i wanted to go to a country show\fete with them on sat , so anyway a couple of days later i emailed my mum to see whether my fiance (non jw) could come too.. this is the email i received today.

as you are going to be busy over the next few weeks, we dont want to put added pressure on you, dont feel you have to come to the show.plus we have already explained the situation regarding mike we dont have anything against him personally, but the situation is difficult for us regards associating with him as your fiance because it would be viewed as our supporting your decision to marry out of the truth.

i was curious if anyone has any thoughts on why the two new members of the gb haven't beeen announced on the society's web site?

they were appointed on august 25 according to what i have read here, but no one in my congregation has said anyhting about it.

i know it is still a little early for it to be in the watchtower, but don't they usually post this kind of news at jw media?.
