  We have the truth - part 2

  by MutualRespectPlease in

  does doing what is right in god's eyes mean we have to use only bible terms?

  i know the organization is not perfect.

  is there strong evidence that he has his people here on earth that although not perfect, are doing his will?

  I love you all.

  What does a JW get for lying? He can't possibly, and that's a fact. However, it made him feel good giving one last "works" effort for God, who he thinks is keeper and director of this 7 million man march.

  I can study and learn almost everything to be a lawyer or a doctor. Does that make me a lawyer or doctor? NOPE. They think because they study and learn so much about their bible, and act a certain way, that it makes them God's people.

  I liked the part about doing what's right in God's eyes. Has he or anyone he knows ever spoken to God to get his side of the story to know this as fact? NOPE...just belief and hope.

  I give him a B for effort.

  Yes, Rick...I like his stuff too. He comes across like a guy you just want to sit down and chat and social with. Like a buddy.

  Many would do well to heed his info. I'm sure he is responsible for many escapes.

  KW13, good job. Here's a little more advanced to work up to. I even put you sitting at the top of the letters admiring the view (of whatever is down that hill. What is it?)

  In the CD player right now??? hmmm, check out SKILLET on iTunes. Sample the song "whispers in the dark". The whole CD is loaded with that genre. Luv it. Try Sanctus Real, Superchick, Newsboys and Third Day, too. Great groups.

  What happens with things like this? I wouldn't mind joining that one too, but I don't want to have anyone associate me with those that might be putting this site down.

  ?

  Just curious.

  well i ain't got a real prize, but i could find an appropriate emoticon for anyone who gets it right.

  it is a person my great grandmother knew, and he was quite famous in his day, and i semi-admire him with a little caution.

  More new changes - 30 min public talks

  by The Lone Ranger in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm not sure if this is old news to you guys but i just heard that the wts is now giving 30mins public talks instead of 45mins public talks.

  this new arrangement is starting on jan 2008. i think the wts has seen that the r&f has had enought of all these meetings and is trying to wind them down without it looking like they are giving in.

  Toobad TooSad, great reply, how funny. I think whats the big deal, 15min is so quick. If they want to impress us, change it to a 3 minute public statement.

  A PUZZLING QUESTION...????...????...????

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the "sacred secret" of god that creation was yearing to glimpse for so long was jehovah's plan of salvation and righteous government rescue operation.. yet, pagans, heathens and various crackpot primitives all came up with the same plan long before jehovah's was "revealed".

  something smells bad about this!!.

  i find it puzzling.. child sacrifice to appease wrathful deities is a disgusting solution to crop failure.

  It's neat being amongst the minority here. In the US alone approx 80%+ of the population believe in God. Not trying to start anything, just throwing it out there.

  Terry, your avitar looks like you are Mike Gallagher, the conservative national talk radio guy-- www.mikeonline.com

  He's also on TV quite often too.

  Becoming officially recognized as Annointed

  by B_Deserter in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i've heard there is a very secretive process the wts uses to determine whether or not they'll consider someone "of the annointed.

  " from what i've heard it's a very rigorous set of questions.

  can anyone here confirm this?

  I can't imagine being a grown adult associated with this organization, and having to be forced to believe this teaching & practice, and then actually believe in it.

  Is this part of the JW training, anywhere in scripture? Please let me know, thanks.
