  ...and he had to wade across crocodile infested waters to conduct the meeting for service and no one else showed up. W.Once

  Precisely.

  But wait...there's more.

  He preached till sundown.

  He was hungry.

  He was parched.

  He was ready to retire for the evening, he had to traverse that crocodile-infested river yet again, but he felt the need to knock on one last hut.

  Turns out, the householder had been praying to God that He send a sign.

  A study was started with the householder, the village witchdoctor.

  Now he's a Circuit Overseer.

  By the way, he's also just a torso, as he's lost all his appendages whilst crossing the many crocodile-infested rivers in his assignments.

  Makes one ask...am I REALLY doing enough?

  let us not forget the walk in service and to the kingdom hall is up hill both ways.

  well, i am not a packer fan, and i don't know specifically what he does. but, i do know favre is a well respected quarter back. i like watching people who have a passion and excitement for the game. even if i'm not a fan, they are fun to watch. i like when it's about the game, not the money.

  Why does Brett Farve act like he's still in high school when he throws a TD pass

  what do you mean by this? i don't watch any packers games, so, i was wondering what he does.

  glad to hear your mom is doing good!

  as for the witnesses, maybe if they see how loving and happy you are, they may drop their defenses. i wouldn't get to attached yet, but, be cautiously optimistic. take this to show them through love and actions, there is a better way. not even talking about the witnesses and just being cool with your family may have a huge impact on them. don't let them talk about the witnesses, and don't bring it up. be diplomatic. you'll do awesome.

  i'm pulling for ya buddy!!!

  thanks for the support guys. i will keep you all posted on what happens. i agree, if i can seel the w.t.s., selling a nice truck is a piece of cake.

  i think my mechanic background and door to door background make this job ideal.

  and like missanna said, if it's one thing i am good at, it's b.s. hahahahaa she's right, i got her to marry me. i must be doing something right.

  horrible life, i appreciate that. i was raised in a house with 4 strong women that taught me that women are most definately not 2nd hand citizens. in fact, they are to be respected even more than men.

  i've promised myself not to try to jerk people around. i've found that being sincere and honest is the best way to do business. if i feel like if i screwed someone, i can never sleep at night until i make it right.

  when i was working on cars, we actually did an experiment. i told my boss it'd be easier to rip a man off than a woman. i stated that a woman comes in expecting to get ripped off, so she is more cautious. a man comes in not wanting to look cheap or like a fool. so, we messed with some customers. we tried to actively see if we could rip them off. we were honest with them in the end, but, we found it was far easier to rip the men off!!!! women asked to many questions. we were amazed by this. so, horrible life, i can assure you i will respect all my customers, ESPICALLY the women. my momma raised me better than that. lol

  well, i gotta go work on my comb-over and select the best gold chains to wear. see you guys later.

  YAY!!!! I got my finals back from my financial class!!

  by FreedomFrog in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  and i passed with a b!!!!!

  most of my grades have been above a b but with this class even my friend told me (who is a number cruncher), they gave us an unfair advantage because they threw in all kinds of variables that was a bit too advanced for a person starting out.

  the college is going to change this because they realize it is a bit much for "beginners" but we weren't so "lucky" to have it changed for us.

  Do you still love the Bible?

  by senoj53 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  as a jw i was brought up to believe the bible was the word of god, didn't contradict itself and could answer all our questions.

  i loved the bible and took the words of proverbs 2 literally, where it says if you call out for undestanding and search for it you will find the very knowledge of god.

  i studied the bible as jw's recomend, but found that it left me with more questions than answers and this eventually led me out of the "truth," as i discovered many contradictions in both the hebrew and the greek scriptures and instances where the apostle paul even contradicts jesus words.. in the most important event of bible history, (the death of jesus) the gospel writers can't even agree on the sequence of events and who he appeared to first after his resurrection.

  NO, the Bible is false and is not God's word, absolutely not, based on my research
