  Why Ex-JWs Will Never Go From Door to Door

  by comforter in

  jehovah's witnesses proclaim the good news of the kingdom under the power of god's holy spirit.

  jesus commanded his followers to preach in the most distant parts of the earth and promised them that the spirit of god would guide them in this life-saving work (acts 1:8).. without the spirit of god, one cannot continue preaching about jesus and god's kingdom (matthew 24:14).

  one surely will not have god's spirit if one preaches a negative message (against jehovah's servants) from door to door.

  ???Yes. And they were all idiots.???

  You mean, like you, Farkel?

  Don't think I am going to waste my precious time trading insults. I just had to answer your nonsensical comment.

  Dear out

  It depends on one's locality. People my way still use "it" knowing full well that the baby is either a boy or girl. I think that child is a neuter noun. If that is the case, then one can use the word "it" when speaking about a child. I know that Greek word for child is neuter.

  I would say that the Scriptures tell Christians not to associate with ousted brethren (1 Corinthians 5:11-13). But I might then ask what it means to associate with someone. Is it associating with ousted brethren if I come to this place? I do not understand the biblical command that way.

  I do not fraternize or hobknob with ousted brethren. So am I really violating the Bible?

  I know you also joking about the genius comment. Thanks anyhow.

  To all you pedantics who criticized me for calling a child "it" you know nothing about English grammar. A child can be a girl or a boy. To cover my bases, I say "it." There is nothing wrong with this usage. It is common in English. Have you never heard anyone say about a baby, "Isn't it cute"?

  I can see that most people in this place do not care for meaningful dialogue. They just want to be able to win arguments. You people are like those that opposed Jesus in his day. They loved to try to get him in catch-22s. If he drank wine he was doomed; if he did not drink wine, he was doomed. If Jesus drank with sinners, he was bad; if he did not drink and eat with confirmed sinners, he was bad. Cannot win with unreasonable ones.

  And last, most people here (many df or da ones) do not use their real name or show their real picture. But you expect jws to do this. Now who is hypocritical?

  I do not preach outta fear. I preach out of love, lady. You are either in union with Christ or not. If you are in Christ, you know it. No amount of scare tactics can make you or hinder you from expressing the good news that is in your heart. Only preaching done out of love is of any avail.

  Are you saying that all jw kids are just going from door to door to keep parents happy? Hogwash and horsefeathers.

  Manyn kids love going from door to door and cannot wait until they can pioneer. Joshua wrote that as for me and my household, we shall serve Jehovah. I feel the same way. While a child is in my house, I will encourage it to go from door to door. If it later decides it does not want to be a jw, that it the child's responsibility.

  You could be making up stuff. Why would I believe you? Besides, I love giving away literature for free. Matthew 10:8.

  ???Comforter,
  You said moonies are a dangerous cult.
  What makes the Moonies a cult? (How is a cult defined?)???

  We define a cult as a religious group that is authoritarian, centered around a human leader or leaders and practices the inducing of zombification (a sociological phenomenon). A cult also goes against the counsel found in the Bible. I believe moonies meet up to this definition of cult.

  ???And, what makes them dangerous????

  Any group that uses people for its own ends, zombifies them, and teaches extreme and false religious views acts as a morbid influence to society.

  ???Question, here I am on the outside and you view it that you are on the inside, yet I know your own litureture and talks have often condemned internet activity because of the dangers inherent in meeting apostates online, or put another way, partaking of the table of demons.???

  I have never read any blanket condemantions about internet activity in our magazines. Maybe there have been warnings to be careful about where we go on the internet. But we are not forbidden to surf the internet.

  ???So, why are you here, for by your own actions, you should be hauled up by the elders for a JC, yet you preach to us you little arrogant git self righteously condemning yourself at the same time. Doesn't that make your actions somewhat hypocritical???

  I am not here to peach. You Know taught me the folly of doing that in this place. I am just in this place to set the score straight. The Bible tells me to set opposers straight and expose their errors. I am not being hypocritical. We will provide comfort through discomfort.

  I want to save souls. That requires three things though. God's blessing, my personal love for others and a soul's willingness to be saved. If you and your neighbors do not want the good news, there is nothing that I can do about it. But by sharing in service, I have done my part, by at least giving people a warning of the impending wrath of God. That is no threat. It is what the Bible tells will happen. So even if nobody listens---I have not wasted my time. God's name and kingdom is made known and people get to hear about Jesus' work.

  Time spent wisely.
