  Matt 5: 29, 30 used to justify shunning

  by Jules Saturn in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i had a family relative use this scripture found here to justify shunning.

  the scripture reads as followed.

  if, now, your right eye is making you stumble, tear it out and throw it away from you.+for it is better for you to lose one of your members than for your whole body to be pitched into ge·henʹna.

  I can't believe they are using something out of context to justify their behavior. It's so unlike them.

  Anyone know the significance of the three days and nights Jesus is dead?

  by Crazyguy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  in my studies i’ve come to realize that most dying and rising gods such as inanna, jesus and others all were dead three days and nights.

  the moon is dead as far as man not being able to see it in the sky three days and nights but many of these gods are not associated with the moon, osiris maybe being the only exception.

  have any of you in your research come up with a plausible idea on why there all dead just threes days and three nights?.

  It has to do with Jewish tradition and they were all Jewish. The Zohar teaches that the soul lingers for 3 days before it leaves the body. It is also Jewish tradition that the body be buried as soon as possible, and no more than 3 days after death. Source

  I think the real question is: What is the significance of the number three occurring so often in Jewish tradition?

  J.W.`s and Paradise and the Reality of it.

  by smiddy3 in

  when god created adam and eve and put them in the garden of eden it was then up to them to cultivate and take care of it ,god had no further hand in it .the responsibility rested with adam/eve and their offspring.. the same would be true in the paradise to come ,god gets rid of all of us wicked people ,but then it is up to j.w.~s who are left on this earth to restore such a paradise.?

  without god`s intervention.. think of it , this system is gone with all its infrastructure.. 8 million + j.w.`s scattered throughout the earth with.

  no communication systems operating .

  I don't believe there was ever a "Garden of Eden" with an Adam and Eve, and I don't believe there will ever be a utopian paradise where anybody lives forever, JW or not.

  The longer I have been away from the JWs, the more I realize how utterly nonsensical either story is.

  i woke up a little after 5 am this morning and looked at the clock and realized i had more time to sleep so i fell right back asleep.

  i had this dream that i was letting my girlfriends dog out of her house and the next scene i was at work and i got a phone call.

  the room i was in simply had a table and phone it was very bare.

  Some people believe that is how people who have died communicate with those still living. Some people believe that dreams are a way for us to communicate our unconscious thoughts to ourselves.

  One of my very best friends was diagnosed with terminal cancer and given 3 to 6 months to live. I was sick with the flu at the time, and my doctor advised me to stay away from her until I was completely over it. She passed 9 days after she was diagnosed and I never got to see her before she died. I am one of those persons who never dream or never remember dreams, but the one I had a couple of days after she died was so vivid, I swore it was really happening. We were in the same room in her house that we always sat in, drinking like we always did. We talked for a bit and I apologized to her for not getting to see her before she passed. I gave her the hat I had bought for her in real life, but never got to give her that said FUCK CANCER. This happened over 10 years ago, and I still think about it because it was so vivid. I needed her to say her final goodbyes and have closure and that is exactly what it did for me.

  We have discussed it and decided that we are willing to give you Trudeau as long as you promise to keep him and never let him come back to Canada.
  Consider him 'a gift' and good luck.

  I LOVE THIS IDEA!

  We'll do an even trade for Trump with the same conditions. No give-back-seys!

  What was the EXACT exJW website you first visited and why EXACTLY did you visit it?

  by ILoveTTATT2 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i had two episodes of visiting exjw websites:one time around 2007 when i just googled "jehovah´s witnesses" and dared to look at those sites.

  i was scared and i promised myself i would never come back to them.

  however, that one didn´t really count.the moment that woke me up was this:i got to know that whitney heichel was a jw and murdered by another jw, because i overheard that conversation in a kingdom hall.i looked up the news and in one of the news comments, there was one where an exjw was complaining that they were hijacking her funeral and they were really trying to downplay the fact that her murderer was a jw... and then it said "visit jwfacts.com"... which i did.and the rest... is history.what exactly got you onto an apostate website when you woke up?

  In 2020, I predict Pence will run for re-election.

  As for the Democrats, I think it will be between Kerry, Sanders, and Biden.

  2. beliefs

  the jdubs talk about their loved ones or friends leaving jehovah.

  how can one leave some one who they never saw, some one who is invisible or some one who never talked to them.. what they mean is they no longer obey the borg so the borg is the same as jehovah.. long live the 8 self licking ice cream popes!!

  Line I was always given when I felt the burn of the shun and let them know it ... "Well, YOU were the one that left!"
