When JW jugle they jugle one ball, strained totheir had with gum, and when it falls down, they just take another ball and call it the old one and keeps juglig - showing you back and saying that they do all right, just you don't see them jugling, you have to believe

Juggling with bible verses, making it say whatever you want
by JH injust look at this man juggling, he is amazing.
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4776181634656145640.
this juggling act made me think of how the watchtower juggles with verses, and comes out with man made doctrines, making us believe that what they teach is god's will.

Invalidating your baptism
by What-A-Coincidence inwhat actually validates your baptism?.
the water inmersion or saying yes to the trick questions?.
if b then you can say you never said yes...they would need to prove it with 2 witnesses which they will never come up with thus yout baptsim can be void and null?.

Gods Word added to water validates. But Baptism in it's deepest meaning is validated in Christs death and ressurection. Baptism is God's promise and is not dependent on amount of water used but on water and God's Word presence!

Sorry about question... I know all the issues except Mexico-Malawi. What is this? I am not JW and never was, so for me it is ok to not know something about JW. Can you explain in 3 words?

The last supper: "is" versus "means"
by jstalin ini was raised catholic, so i was a bit surprised when i attended the memorial last year with my jw friend and the speaker was recounting the last supper.
he quoted mark 14:22 and as they continued eating, he took a loaf, said a blessing, broke it and gave it to them, and said: take it, this means my body.
23 and taking a cup, he offered thanks and gave it to them, and they all drank out of it.

Who needs bible if there is WT? Who needs correct translation if they have their very good translation? :)
But issue is that they just don't believe what Bible says, so they make it say what they believe. -

Sounds like... "chemistry has messed me so badly in school so I don't believe anymore in atoms and chemical reactions as I believe there are processes higher and more complex then chemistry books describe and stupid Mendeleyev invents"

How does mainstream Christianity explain "Other Sheep"?
by Alana ini'm preparing for a potential discussion with my mom and, especially if it occurs near this memorial time, the discussion may contain the "other sheep" and how they are different and shouldn't partake of the emblems, etc.
i know that i probably have this information researched already, but since my last move i can't find some my research materials.
i could also ask the pastor of the church i attend, but that involves too much discussion as to what the jw's believe, etc.

I see nobody is directing author to Ephes 2:11- This is exactly what Jesus was talking about. Paul explains it more precisely!

Are there any funny stories in the bible?
by ballistic in.
i posted on a thread earlier that i'm sure jesus had a sense of humour.. i clicked submit post.. then i thought, yeah i'm sure he did but he didn't tell any jokes did he?
in fact i can't think of anything funny in the whole bible.. here's your chance to post a bible story that gets you roaring with laughter...

Sense of humor of God mostly appears as irony or sarcasm in bible. Typical example is Elia fight with priests of Baal... Elias words are "softened" in the translations. Also there were some other similar places, but I can't remember right now.

Do you honestly think the Witness religion will end?
by free2beme ini know that people here make comments about the religion having problems and growth not being anything other then children born into the faith and third world countries.
i even see them make comments about, "how much longer can this go on?
" yet honestly, do you really think the witness religion will end in our life time?

When you see in Church history, then different false teachings last about 2-5 centuries. I don't think that JW are big exception. Ofcourse there are several major directions in false teachings - that is arianism (JW today), gnosticism (New Age) etc. These fallacies will allways be present in one or another way. Ofcourse I am speaking about "chrsitianity based" religions. And survives only those which are close to central message of Gospel. If you go away from gospel, faster you disapear into history.
