  The hardest part is getting them to take an honest look. Different points may be of more importance than others.

  points of interest:

  (1) According to wts -Jesus is the mediator only between God and the 144,000, not All Men

  (2)WTS was a United Nations Nongovernment Organization member for 10 years UNTIL EXPOSED on the internet

  (3) JWs can't donate blood to save a life, but Jesus shed his blood for us

  (4) WTS has kept donated stock in a cigarette manufacturer and a military contractor

  (5) WTS has tried to regulate sexual activities of married couples without scriptural basis

  (6) WTS discourages higher education

  (7) They state WTS is God's Organization on earth, yet have had numerous errors in it's history

  Comments You Will Not Hear at the 12-10-06 WT Study (SACRED THINGS)

  by blondie in

  this article will consider five things that are holy to all of god's servants.

  (b) how do we hold jehovah's name as something holy?.

  (matthew 20:28; hebrews 9: 14) we therefore hold jesus' blood as something sacred, "precious.

  Blondie, the question you raised about how did Jesus remain perfect even though Mary was imperfect, I understand it this way:

  Sin entered the world through Adam, so imperfection or perfection is passed through the 'seed' not the egg of the mother. Just as scientist have found some genetic traits are passed only from the female, while others are passed from the male. If Joseph wasn't the biological father nor any other male descendant of Adam, Jesus didn't inherit the imperfection.

  by minimus in

  1. jw

  there are many differences between a "worldly" person aka "normal" and a jw.

  for example, a jw is horrified by christmas lights.

  it's the work of the devil!

  People with multiple sex partners in their past, present and future?

  by free2beme in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  what i have wondered, is how true were the witnesses about the psychological affect of having multiple sex partners in our lives?

  i remember reading, and hearing in talks, that people who have turned themselves into the type of person who engages in indiscriminate sex, will suffer depression, problems in relationships and illnesses related to such a life style.

  this line of fear was often drawn, to make a young person in the congregation fear the idea of having sex out of wedlock, and perhaps be enough to control the extreme drive of their hormones in early years.

  Transgender - A Case of Tested Friendship

  by Amazing in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  friendship comes in all stages, shapes, and sizes, from the very close, as brothers, built over a lifetime, to the budding kind that has only a few months or a year or two.

  i have been friends with sam (fictious name) for about seven years.

  we are not real close friends, but have a good quality relationship that is mostly confined to the office.. recently, sam told me that he had an issue with a female agent who tried to get him fired.

  Hey mimus, the church I'm going to now has 2 restrooms, both are unisex. just lock the door when you go in. That would have cleared the issue. I don't think any transgender people are going to it, but I'm not checking it out.
