how many on this board are: a) christains--not a jw b) jehovah's witnesses c) do not believe in god d) have a belief in god but just not active in anything right now.
i'm new to the board and was curious as to everyone's standing.
i'm 30, a christain, i left the jws 3 years ago (after being in it for 21 years) to follow jesus and heard of, among other good things, this great thing called: grace!
warning: i am about to discuss a rather delicate subject.
if the words menstruation or period gross you out, please stop reading now.. i am going to attempt to keep names out of this discussion, as my thoughts are directed to the general population, not one individual.
i am fairly certain, however, that someone may take this personally and react with anger and insults.
as the last days wind down to their dramatic conclusion, prophecies that were heretofore obscure, over time have now come more sharply into focus.
one such prophecy that bears review is the oft-quoted verse concerning the "increasing of lawlessness.
" typically the watchtower has pointed to increasing criminal lawlessness in the world as evidence of the fulfillment of that particular feature of the sign of christ's imminent arrival.
apostates try to pretend that the prophecy in question emanates from the Watchtower or even from me personally.
Could you show me that scripture where Jesus predicts the end in 1998? Also the one where he predicts it in 1999. And I'd especially like to see where Jesus said that the Y2K bug would spark Armageddon.

i was just looking out the window, as it would happen a middle aged woman, or perhaps a young woman worn out with her life walked past.
she stopped on the edge of the mall where my wifes office is, and sat on a bench outside the window.
on close look, she couldnt have been more than late 30's, but probably only 35.. she sat for a while just looking at the ground in front of her, her face just exhibiting that blank look of the world weary.
Hi, Roamingfeline! I don't recognize your name. If you're new, welcome to the board. You said:
This is a wonderful thread for reminding us of why we're on these boards, to go further in our healing and to help others to get to where we are now and beyond.
Yes, indeedy. Deacon touched a chord in all of us. I've been doing this since 1996, and I still get theraputic help from it.

you are not a jehovah witness, are you?
are you a jehovah witness?.
and it's not "jehovah witness.
Sissie - no indication of gender. His email was unisex. Like you, I just assumed. It does have a male flavor to it, though, as you pointed out.
Hi, Cathy! No, what I posted above was all he ever sent. I didn't hear back. I guess he really was sneaking in to mommy's computer, reckon? And got spooked with I mentioned it. I figure, like Had Enough said, he's got issues with his spirituality, so he looked at the pictures, probably had a very stress-relieving session with his private parts, and post-orgasm was overwhelmed with intense guilt, which he tried to alleviate by focusing forcefully on MY evil.
Demon sex... so much more insidious than demon rum. LOL

some of you may recall that mommie's older jw brother was critically injured in a fall at work last winter.
he fell 30 feet from a ladder and landed on his hardhat; his initial prognosis of doom gave way to astonishment when it was discovered that he had broken no vertebrae... no permanent spinal injury at all.
after weeks in a drug-induced coma, the swelling on his brain subsided, and he woke, complaining, to the great relief of all family members, who recognize irascibility as normal behavior for one of us.
can someone fill me in on this quote i took from a jw board?
since when is skydiving a no no?
sheesh!
