I realize people hear lack faith, Can't change them, but may this will help
by jw inthe apostle paul told the christians in the ancient city of philippi: "this is what i continue praying, that your love may abound yet more and more with accurate knowledge and full discernment.
philippians 1:9
similarly, accurate knowledge is needed for you to be motivated to believe in god.

Do you think that the WTS is going to "collapse" and there will be no JW's?
by booker-t indo you think that there will come a time when the wts will be a thing of the past and people will look into their history books and say "oh yeah those jw's were around for over 120 years and now they are no longer around today in the year 20___?
" my friend thinks that jw's will not collapse and will probably get "stronger" with time.
i hope not because i am just sick of the whole wts and jw's religion.

I guess more WT accumulate failed predictions, interpretations and show that their light is blinking, dimishing etc. they will pass slowly into history. They won't go away entirely, but they will lose their role. How long they will be able to tell that end is near... Other thing what could (I don't believe) is that they transform into mainstream christianity as Adventists did. But I guess they will soon be gone as there will be more expenses to cover the lie then gains.

John Chapter 1
by mavie ini am wondering how those who believe jesus is the almighty lord god reconcile the following passages in chapter 1.
john 1:1 - ..."the word was god.
john 1:14 - "and the word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the father,) full of grace and truth.

"Why Won't God Heal Amputees?"
by scout575 in"according to believers, god is answering millions of their prayers every day.
prayer seems to be especially powerful in the medical arena - god eliminates cancers, kills viruses, reverses the efffects of poisons, heals internal organs, repairs injuries etc.".
the above quote is taken from an ex-christian website.

Because it is better with one eye and one leg and one arm to go to heaven than to hell with all the limbs in place!

How do I help my JW friend?
by stillAwitness inshe's the same age as me; 22 but has the mentality of a 16 year old.
she has been itching to get married the past couple of months b/c in her mind: the only way she will be able to be out of her parents' control is to finally get married to a "fine witness brother".
i told her why not go back to school and while you do that save up money to find your own place?

The Increasing Degradation of Women in the Watchtower Society.
by Dogpatch infrom towerwatcher:the increasing degradation of women in the watchtower society.
the lifestyle of a woman as one of jehovah's witnesses is certainly not an easy job.
it is a well known fact that most of the work that takes place within the watchtower society contributing to its success, is due to the backbone of the watchtower which can be described as the women in the congregation.

Is J K Rowling a Witch?
by Gill inis j. k. rowling a witch?
the reason i ask is this, a 'nice' couple across the road are born again christian fundamentalists.
their little boy was playing with a sword and his mum told me he had been watching 'narnia' (based on the lion the witch and the wardrobe).

I am Christian - not child. I guess God keeps me from Harry Potter by boring me. I tried about 3-4 times to watch the movies... I never get passed first 30 minutes... it is boring... not interesting and stupid movie. Ofcourse teletoobies are more stupid, but not far from H.P.

Would Jesus ?
by scrubmaster ini have been thinking about this for a while and while a lot of things posted here deal with directing at the wrong things in the org -- here is another way to look at things.
for those that do not believe in the bible or jesus -- this will not be relevant...... if jesus were here on the earth today in charge of the congregation - -would he give the elders a flock book and then tell them this is what is to be used, with out the friends knowledge when it came to judicial cases.
would he threaten ones who look at it?

Answers for Christians are obvous as they know Jesus personally. For JW it is harder, as they don't know Jesus personally (how can you know one if you don't talk to him never) all they claim they are taking in knowledge.

The Earliest Trinity Statements
by Amazing1914 in[note: i am not promoting a religion, a church system, nor a set of beliefs.
i am merely reporting history as i find it.
the early, ante-nicene church fathers spent much time fighting heresies.

BTW I guess I am asking way too much, but may be somebody could point me or if it has not been done yet, to create full reference guide for "Trinity" broshure quotes to original. I have seen several qutation references and examples as WT twists original texts, but may be there is full table/list of broshure quotes and their original contexts, references!
