have you ever thought about how things end up making sense to jw's?

like the trinity cannot make sense because 1+1+1=1 doesn't add up...right?

but........ a virgin conception,having miraculous sewer systems, plastic beach balls, and seat belts on elephannts in the new world is all good....ughhhhhhhh,where is the thought processes in this??

What is Rom 15: 20,21 getting at?
by yaddayadda in
1. watchtower
2. bible
romans 15: 20 & 21 "in this way, indeed, i made it my aim not to declare the good news where christ had already been named, in order that i might not be building on another man's foundation; but, just as it is written: "those to whom no announcement has been made about him will see, and those who have not heard will understand.

could this be used to show that jw's are wrong to condemn all other christians as false, because as long as these other christians have accepted christ and have him as their foundation, does it really matter if some of their doctrines are not quite right?

i think this scripture shows that jw's are wrong to focus so much on the faults of other christian religions.

good morning and "happy saturday" everyone!!.

i've noticed recently alot of discussion on b-days.
