  by Connections in

  i have a question that ive been wondering about for a while and wanted to ask you all.

  from your personal experience, can you tell me what, in your life or the life of a loved one close to you, what happens when you/he/she are walking closely with god?

  in other words, if i met you or them on the street and you were "walking closely with god" what would i observe?

  Is there a way to change the view on this forum? I would like to see replies linearly not have to click on each post. Is that possible?

  Thank you,

  no chess?

  i once had a demonstration on a circuit assembly about not going to parties with worldly people (yeck when i think of it, i basically told all: he dont have fun or jehovah is going to kill you)'.

  anyway the demonstration ended that it was better to do nice recreation things.

  Hello all,

  What of the biblical battles, the whole good vs. evil, God vs. Satan that pervades scripture? It seems to be a theme throughout, why not participation in non harmful games like laser tag and chess?

  Hello all,

  I have a question that I’ve been wondering about for a while and wanted to ask you all. From your personal experience, c an you tell me what, in your life or the life of a loved one close to you, what happens when you/he/she are “walking closely with God”? I mean, what does it look like for you and them? In other words, if I met you or them on the street and you were "walking closely with God" what would I observe? What is happening internally and externally? What would I see in your actions? Behaviors? Relationships? Conduct? More prayer? Fasting? Fellowship? Etc. Please do not limit you answers those above but add anything that you can note from your own experiences. Thank you all for your thoughts.

  Why didn't the preaching work stop prior to 1975?

  it doesn't look like it's going to stop anytime soon either.

  i raised this question before i stopped attending the meetings in the late 90's and the answer i was given was, "it has slowed down a lot and will eventually stop when the time is right".

  Hi and thank you parakeet. I wondered if it meant something like that but I couldn't figure out the right words.

  Hello all,

  As you will surely see, I'm just learning. Your've OP seems to suggest that being DF'd is a bad thing. What does "df" mean?

  Thanks,
