Anybody Irish?

by love2Bworldly in

hello, have not posted in quite some time.

i put up some st. patrick's decorations at work, including one of those demonized little leprechauns, and enjoyed the look of a jw i work with when she came into the office this morning.

you know the look of pretending they didn't notice those evil holiday decorations?

off topic..but was also looking for a church to accept me in, and guarantee my forgiveness and salvation. I have 30 pieces of silver for the offering plate. Can someone find me a church that will accept me in?

I asked a Catholic priest on louisvillemojo.com (forums) and haven't heard anything since.

Reasoning Book -- Online Version

by adelmaal in

anyone know if i can get an online electronic version of the reasoning book?

i really need to get ahold of it to be able to show my daughter what jws believe.

sometimes when i explain to her a jw belief she is dumfounded and does not grasp that they actually believe what i am telling her.

I am betting there will be no assembly this summer. Just a gut feeling though, or "opinion".

Is a personal relationship possible, without God communicating with everyon

by DavidChristopher in

how does that work?

is personal relationship with jesus possible without him commmunicating with each of us personally?

does he communicate through a organization, and we delelop a personal relationship with the organization??

DavidChristopher

well...if we understand and discover new information in the bible...does not everyone own a bible? Is it possible "spirit" is "knowledge"?

Ok.....

next question....

What exactly is "spirit" or "Holy Spirit".

Lets see if we can find out what the Author meant by those words...HIS opinion if you will.

Or even ours....

Any opinions?

What do you call people who adopt other opinions without researching them?

by DavidChristopher in

i was talking to two elders yesterday..... i was confronted about the whole "bad associations" question.

i asked them what "bad associations" were.

they have no idea what bad associations are to the author, only their opinions and the opinions of their chosen leaders.

DavidChristopher

Is that like an "actor" or "hypocrite" by chance?

Did Jesus sin when he added a NEW commandment?

by zen nudist in

.

deut, is quite clear that the law was not to be added to nor taken from..... yet jesus said, i give you a new commandment, that you love one another as i have loved you.. so could he be the one god sent if he violated what god commanded?

DavidChristopher

I never thought about THAT. "your law"? Not THE LAW? Did He always say "your law?".

Nice point.....

I cannot post a new topic for 14 hours...can someone help a little brother out?

I want to move to change the word "religon" to "opinion". I think it puts things in a more clear way, and gives a better understanding of the concept.

Can someone post this as a topic for me please?

What? pretty soon all Texas ranchers will be stereotyped as gay all over the world. How do you see us Kentuckians?

Texas has many ranchers, many ranchers are gay, therefore most texans must be gay. (IMO)
