  Most of those professing to be of the anointed are quite elderly. Again, would this not indicate that the end is close at hand?

  John 10:15

  by LittleToe in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  joh 10:15 as the father knoweth me, even so know i the father: and i lay down my life for the sheep.

  .

  something suddenly struck me, while reading the aforementioned verse.. if the father knows everything (ginosko - to know "absolutely") and hence knows jesus intimately; how is it possible for jesus to know the father in the same way if he's merely an angel or "perfect" human?

  Little toe I think you are reaching abit. Jesus just said he knows his Father. Who knows how long Jesus spent with Jehovah before they started thier creative acts. Millions of yrs.......Billions of yrs.........?

  No one knows all things except the father. Is this not so Defd? Of those things Jesus must be included, however the question arises when Jesus compares his understanding of Jehovah and places it on par with Jehovah's understanding of him. Whatdya think?

  chemical burns, ruined clothes, 11 years, half a million dollarsit's not easy to improve the world's most popular toy.

  Of Late Many Here Seem To Be Preaching Aethiesm..

  by Qcmbr in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when i first came here a while back there was plenty of discussion around and about jw topics and general chit chat but of late i've felt quite a sharp increase in posts that are: .

  1/ preaching aethism (as opposed to putting it forward in a respectful way as an alternate viewpoint.

  2/ vitriolic attacks on those who dare have another view ('damn those stupid heretical believers') .

  i'm rather conflicted on this.

  what do you guys think?

  does this qualify as psychological abuse?

  I got taken to elders for masturbating which was then passed on to ministerial servants and I was the laughing stock of my congregation. That was emotionally humiliating. Going out in service on breaks instead of doing kid things meant that I had to walk past my elementary school. But I was doing the right thing for Jehovah. That was emotionally humiliating. Getting spit on and cursed to die from people that I had witnessed to while walking to school, that was emotionally humiliating.

  My mother standing with me on a street corner after she obviously had tried other things to get my attention screams of a caring person. If the mother didn't care she'd not do anything. I respect her for trying to do what works for her daughter.

  What do you _really_ think?

  by daystar in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  quite often we maintain a polite silence about others when we'd really like to tell them to shut the hell up, that they're pompous, or ignorant, or simply a pain in the ass.

  "god, i can't stand reading any of his posts.

  or, perhaps we really would like to say something really nice about someone, perhaps even a bit personal.
