  To celebrate or not to celebrate

  by Dubby in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i wonder how much validity is in the wt teaching that it's wrong to celebrate holidays.

  did jesus followers in the first century really not get involved in nationalistic activities?

  is the celebration of one's nations independence at odds with jesus and the apostle's teachings?.

  Demon-possessed inanimate objects

  by Dubby in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for years i heard stories that certain items in the home could be demon-possessed.

  i was told to be careful of items bought at garage sales because we didn't know their origin, or who or what they were used for.. did we own a ouija board before becoming a witness?

  could it be that items like these were creating misfortune?

  Liberal JW's

  by Dubby in

  2. friends

  i admire the jw's who seem to be not too affected by what the society teaches.

  for instance; my brother became a jw when he met his wife, who was born into the wts.

  his wife and her family, always seemed to be very gregarious people, and enjoy life very much.

  Reasons for becoming a JW?

  by Dubby in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm curious about the reasons for becoming a jw.

  if you were raised a jw, were you pressured into baptism?

  if you weren't raised a jw, what were the deciding factors?

  dear truthbknown,.

  don't be so afraid to let the truthbknown!

  devoting yourself to men and their rules puts you in a precarious position with jehovah.

  for years i denied myself the thing i loved to do the most to be a good jw.

  i love to ride off-road motorcycles.

  so, i am going to indulge myself and get a new dirt bike.. i love to see god's creation from the vantage point of a motorcycle on a mountain top.

  just wondering if any here has an unbelieving mate that shows more love than any "brothers" or "sisters" in the truth.

  actually, i'm not so sure about "truth" anymore.

  Greetings, yet have problems

  by Dubby in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm married, have a wonderful, but "unbelieving" wife.

  i have three kids, all of whom are honor students and very responsible.. now my dilemma: none of my kids are the least bit interested in being jw's.

  i took them all to meetings even as babies without the help of my wife or anyone else in the congregation.
