  I haven't been hurt emotionally by someone I loved. I have allowed myself to be taken advantage of in the worst possible way by someone I thought was a friend and then had to suffer them gloating over it.

  very sorry about your bad experience

  Help Draw Me a Picture ... The Witness Judgement Seat and Implications

  by jgnat in

  2. beliefs

  blondie has tried to lay out for me the implications of the varied and changing doctrines of the witness judgement seat a few times.

  i think i get it and then about halfway through i start to glaze over.

  it's time i sorted it all out.

  The original sin

  by onacruse in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this is a question i've had for a long time.. according to the biblical account, adam and eve's sin was to eat fruit from the forbidden tree.. now, ordinarily, when we get caught doing something "wrong," we try to hide the "offending" member (the child tries to hide his hand that has the 'stolen' cookie; we hurriedly try to pull our pants back on when mom walks in unexpectedly while we're masturbating, etc.)..

  so, if the "sin" of adam and eve was eating a forbidden fruit, then why wasn't their first impulse to hide their hands?

  or to wipe off their mouths?

  Do you still believe that you have a chance of living eternally?

  by JH in

  2. friends

  or, is it completely out of the question, and you know for sure that this life is it, and there is nothing else after.. maybe you believe that there is a possibility of eternal life, but you don't qualify..

  I'm thrilled with experiencing eternity - life, love, beauty for instance.

  Before this thread closes Junctionguy I just wanna say something that occurred to me today

  WTS teachings do a lot of damage to a persons ability to experience and express intimacy. Also you have both said about liking your own company to an extent. And junctionguy you have been wondering if you are gay. Being gay or hetero imo has to do with intimacy, both emotional and physical - so maybe that's an area to explore together or separately with a counsellor who specialises in that field.

  Its something to look into even if you decide to separate because the wts consumes that aspect of a person's emotional makeup for itself

  I'm saying all this beause you both imo seem have such a solid basis for an ongoing mutually beneficial relationship

  all the best

  1914, 607 and why the details don't mean as much as the bigger picture

  by drew sagan in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i wrote this just because i recently saw some people on another site trying to defend the 607 date.

  this is mostly for lurkers, those who still may be hodling onto the idea that there is truth in this date.

  probably one of the most talked about wt doctrines is that of 1914 and the 'gentile times'.

  Randy thanks for sharing this tragic but educational experience

  It has been observed by many writers and scholars that the religion of the Jehovah’s Witnesses is one of those intense Christian sects that people tend to use to cover up deep scars and wounds of the past. I firmly believe that if these deep scars and wounds are not faced and dealt with directly, they will show themselves in the end anyway. And that is the real truth.

  (((((((((junctionguy)))))))))) ((((((((((amanda)))))))))

  Whether you decide to get back together or remain separated - I just want to share with you something I read recently - found it very comforting

  'NOTHING OF VALUE IS EVER LOST'

  love to you both

  don't let guilt get in the way - if you need counselling find a professional counsellor
