man, its been years since i posted on here.

when i was in deep discussion with my very close jw friend, this forum helped me tremendously, so thank you all for your help and knowledge.. many years ago i went to my jw friends house with one sheet of paper with my notes and questions.

i had him stumped and he said he would get back to me (which he never did).. anyways, many years have passed without even discussing anything and just the other day he brought it up and wanted to see what he couldn't answer.

in proverbs 4:18 as you know all, says that the path of the righteous ones would get brighter and brighter.

Defence of watchtower society Links

2. beliefs
i thought long and hard before making this thread, that many will not agree with it but i think there needs to be balance and people to realise there are alternate viewpoints out there on many of these subjects, the ones that are most spoke about on this forum.

i was recently sent a full message containing mary's book and these links give the rebuttal to many of her points.

those that are still open-minded enough feel free to look over them even if in the end you still don't agree at least you have heard both the defence as well as the attack as they are on the internet.

jesus denies being God! scriptural discussion.
by reniaa in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i thought after recently reading the bible i would put up for disussion some recent scriptures up which for me show that jesus never viewed himself as god and anyone listening would also see it this way too.. first mark 10 :17-20.

17as jesus started on his way, a man ran up to him and fell on his knees before him.

"good teacher," he asked, "what must i do to inherit eternal life?

Question for Jcannon.

2. bible
hello my friend,.

i was reading through a few of your past posts in an effort to get to know the christ better and i have a question.

according to one of your posts from 2003 you tell us that being publically ridiculed or disbelieved by apostates is a fullfilment of prophesy.

Looking for some help about marriage
by Matt_fs in
1. watchtower
2. bible
hope this isnt a repost, couldnt find anything on the subject.. have a friend who is marrying a jw.

he isn't a jw but she is (even though she doesnt really go or believe in it), her parents are strict jw's but wont goto their wedding cause of something about being unevenly yoked?

now they both want her parents to go, but the parents tend to think they are not allowed to go.

1914 a time of the end?
by Matt_fs in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
hey folks,.

i have tried to tell a witness about 1914 and how it was predicted the end of the world, but they come back and tell me that some scripture in matthew i believe, shows how the devil was thrown out of heaven at that time and he came down and started world war 1. so they say even though the end didnt happen, something major happened in the world where everyone went to war.

i just dont know how to come back to this.
