hiya all.
i just wondered this becus i know lots of people have lost faith in god and the bible.. but if today something happened that proved 100 percent that god existed, would you go back to serving him?.
if i may ask, what is your worldview?
Complicated and totally new. Different from JW`s mainstream. Have patience. It takes time, see posting after posting. My family are JW`s. Me too, but very "weak". Having any different view is resulting in shunning and finally in dfing (kick into the a..) if one knows the identity. And I am sure they quickly know....

Would you search for any revelations or informations coming from that God, or not?
based on the thought experiement you provide, yes i would.
basically, at that point, this "god" could be a scientist in another dimension or universe, that started this universe. ; so, yes, i would ask questions!
Hi.
What we can state, is the following:
Our "IMAGE" of God depends exclusively on our experiences we made in connection with so-called "worshippers" - like in Christendom, Islam, Hinduism, Mormonism, JW-ism and so on.
If the experiences made are negative, then automatically our vision of God is a negative one.
If such "worshippers" would NOT EXIST, then we would have got a totally neutral and unprejudiced image of God. If we would find scriptures like the bible, nothing would change. We would be curious to find out what he eventually had to say to us. Messages about the best way to communicate with other people, advices how to bring our future under control, and others.

Gods can exist or not. I would tell God, "I do not need you, please go away and leave me alone."
Let me precise what I meant.
We assume: Never had been existing any Christendom, any Islam, any Buddhism, any Mormonism and any JW-ism before. There only existed science, pure platonic mathematics and physics all the time. Nothing else, okay? (what we do, is a so-called "thought experiment" like Schroedinger`s cat. Do you know?)
And now, surprisingly, the scientists discovered the existence of GOD; undoubtedly. They found the proof. Verifiably and Falsifiably .
Okay. What would you do? Let us assume, there are 6 billion people never heard from the existence of such a "God" before. And of course, there are very interested: All magazines and newspapers are full with stuff about the scientific sensational discovery. And now the question to you, personally, for this singular event: Would you search for any revelations or informations coming from that God, or not?
I direct this question to all members here on this board, besides.

If it were proved to me that God existed I would still not worship Him, Her, It.
Okay. We assume, science some day would be able to proof the existence of GOD undoubtedly. But you have no blind idea how to serve or worship such an unknown God.
What would you do? Would you never search for any revelations directly coming from him about questions what is to do in future, or what is good or bad, or what would be the intention and will of that God?

are there jws who prepare for the tribulations they assume are around the corner?
when i visted the us once in 1999 i met a few guys who were expecting a global meltdown due to the millenium bug.. as a consequence they had generators, guns, ammo, tins of food, bottled water, fuel, all kinds of stuff to help them through a civil disorder situation.
does anyone know or remember any jws who have prepared like this?
I read somewhere that Mormons are required to keep a years worth of canned goods in case the end of the world comes. ; I wonder why witnesses weren't required to do this?
I often wondered too. I think its the hope, that angels will come and guide the JW`s through armagedddon. Simulatanously the governing body would get information from highest sources (perhaps vom Jesus Christ personally) how to react, and inform the lower ranks in the organisation. Sorry, I cannot take that serious. I do my best, but I cannot understand this policy.

What has to "happen"; what do you mean? Could you precise? What, if they just discover a scientific proof that he exists?
(Don`t say this thing is impossible).

I do not think that your contribution to the topic is very intellectually...;-(
Note: There are many desperate members looking for answers nobody gave them.

What, if God changes his "nature" or "image" (note: in its spiritual meaning!) within thousands, millions and billions of years?

tyernell's theocratic fiction "day one", at one time widely distributed on the internet, dealt with one person's experiences during the first few days after armageddon.

I cannot imagine how people can be so stupied to believe such a nonsense. Certainly, the present society-system will be changed some day totally through a sort of "social-" or "psychical-" cataclysm, but NOBODY has got the faintest idea HOW this dreadful event becomes executed in practise. The same in regards to timeline.
