Women aren't suppose to be ministers..says who?

by A-Team in

i've been hearing this from the 7 day advantist, church of christ and jws, and was show 1 cor 14:36 as proof.

but, i decided to read the context of the verse....and it paints a different picture, atleast imo (ps i am not saying that females should be heads of congerations, now that is out of order.

) i'm using the message translation, for clarity.

Paul said in the Bible that" he does not allow a woman to teach".....that's what started that.

When DID the Jews return?

by Doug Mason in

the wts says that the key date in the jews return from babylon is tishri 1 537 bce.. the wts uses that date to arrive at its incorrect date of 607 bce for the destruction of jerusalem.

in turn, its 607 bce date is used to provide the date of october 1914 ce for christs parousia and the setting up of gods kingdom government.

the wts claims to be the sole representative upon earth of gods kingdom.. the date of the jews return is thus crucial to the watchtower societys (wts) existence and authority.

New date for Armegeddon???

by DawnLS620 in

i must have missed this on my travels thru different x-dub sites, but i think i read something on here about their "new light" regarding the timing for armegeddon.

since its been over 30 years since 1975, how do they predict armegeddon now?

what do they tell new converts regarding the 1975 debacle?

I like the 2034. Sounds rightish...What with all that has to happen Biblically. Great Tribulaton has most decidedly started, though.

2 Corinthians 13 5&6

by mdb in

examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith.

test yourselves.

do you not know yourselves, that jesus christ is in you?unless indeed you are disqualified.

That's because the Witnesses don't have it right. They have there own interpretation. Took me 40 years to discover that.....And it's a hard habit to break! So please forgive me if I sometimes revert to it!

Romans 8:12-17 and your thoughts....

by R.F. in

(romans 8:12-17) nwt.

12 so, then, brothers, we are under obligation, not to the flesh to live in accord with the flesh; 13 for if you live in accord with the flesh you are sure to die; but if you put the practices of the body to death by the spirit, you will live.

14 for all who are led by gods spirit, these are gods sons.15 for you did not receive a spirit of slavery causing fear again, but you received a spirit of adoption as sons, by which spirit we cry out: "abba, father!
