  WHAT IS GOD DOING

  by jambon in

  i am a m/s in a cong but i have been in the truth 10 years and believed it for only 3. i have so many issues but mainly;.

  i just dont believe that jehovahs way of handling the `issue` is the best way, which means i dont believe in him or love him any more.

  i recently had kids and i cant face any harm coming there way - like most, i would kill for them if anyone posed a harm, so what is jehovah doing??

  Hello ppl. I wanted to ask some advice if it is even possible. I wanted to start some support group (atleast virtual) at my country (Latvia) for those who are leaving JW. But I don't have any idea how to get to them. Posts on i-net gives no result! Should I put stencils all around the Kingdom Hall??? Where does goe people who leave JW, where do they seek support? How to find them and help them? JW are relatively new in my country, but allready pretty strong so there SHOULD be people who leave. Ofcourse when such people are united they can fight back! Any suggestions?

  I am believer here. If you need answers about God, I can try to answer. I am not JW, I am Lutheran (conservative wing). But anyway, get out of this cult... and listen to people who were there (I never been JW, managed to escape them).

  no one snatched out of who's hand?

  by mdb in

  2. bible

  jesus answered them, i told you, and you do not believe.

  the works that i do in my fathers name, they bear witness of me.

  but you do not believe, because you are not of my sheep, as i said to you.

  Well it is no problem for us - christians - but it is problem for JW. In first it is God's Hands and in second - God's Spirit! Father and Son is God and still they are not each other and there are no meny gods. Actually... sometimes thinking about trinity is eazy if you thing about word "God" as a material. Everyone who is made of this material is God and is ethernal, omnipotent, omniscent etc. And enything wht is God is creator of universe. God is not title, God is substance, material, nature... loving, creating, good nature which brings to reality what it says!

  need some info on pagan symbols...

  by DannyBloem in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  what pagan symbols are ok for the jw's to use, and are there some clear effidence that they are pagan.. i'm thinking about the neck-tie.

  the wedding ring (any proof?).

  probably a crown on a kings head will be pagan too ..... what else?

  Common. No ANY symbol actually is "pagan" by itself. It is YOU (human) who puts this meaning into items. Items by themselves are not good or evil. As Paul sayed... there is nothing unclean by itself, but for one who thinks it is unclean it is! See... not what comes into you (symbol) makes you sin, but whatever comes out of you makes you dirty. Try to undestand Jesus words and you will see, that people still put some "powers" on plain items, wood, iron, stone. But there is only power in alive beings. And one who you put your hope on is your God. But ofcourse... not everybody has strong faith still believing that eating meat is sin! ;)

  How does one choose to die if they think the JWs are right?

  by Sheepish in

  2. beliefs

  this may seem like a strange question, but i'd like to understand.

  my brother-in-law decided he can't be a witness anymore.

  no half way-he has left entirely.

  So if such day comes "when car hits you" I would prefare to have somebody allready pay for my sins coz I can't offer ANYTHING to my God, as whatever good I do it is from God himself, not my deeds... is there somebody who could set me free from sin? Answer this question and you will see the path, life, ressurection and TRUTH!

  hello, i am new to this board, i am not a jehovahs witness however i studied with them for years, i went out into service a couple of times, but i havent done anything in 4 years.

  i am so confused.

  i always have been scared of the last days thing, but i could never accept the fact that while i was in the meetings, my husband and parents were all at home and the witnesses would tell me that unless they changed and started coming to the meetings that they would be killed!

  Saboteur, neither good behaviour, nonsmoking, outer appearance of love and other good things makes your teaching true! Why I sayed only "outer appearance of love", coz I never heared of Watchtower being in some charity I didn't see the WT on the list of New Orleans helping organizations, the first in the list were Churches, then Salvation Army, then Red Cross... no WT. Where their love? I never seen WT in African hunger solving but WT is multibillion organization, they could afford some charity and to SHOW that their have fruits of love. Haven't seen that! Does apostates hides this? I never seen WT working with mentally handicapet people! I haven't seen much WT working in prisons! Most... I havent seen WT HELPING in big! If they are true religion then their good deeds should overhelm the news and the world! If they are from God, then let their deeds be observed to make us believe that WT has fruits of love! Sorry dude... as I sayed, good behaviour does not make your teachings true!

  But for christians "End Days" are the best what can happen, coz then Jesus Christ will come and reclaim his flock and rise all dead and everybody who believes in Jesus will go to heaven. So actually "end days" are horrible for JW, but blessed for anyone believing in Christ as his Lord and God. Ones who put their hope on Christ will not be cut off as Christ has payed for your sins. He had your punishment you now have his life!
