  Ever wondered about Colossians 1:23?

  by scout575 in

  1. jw

  colossians 1:23b claims that by the time of writing, the good news had been preached, "to every creature ( "all creation" - nwt ) which is under heaven.

  " had the good news really been preached in 'all creation under heaven' when colossians was written?

  was this statement inspired by an all-knowing god or does it just reflect reflect the ignorance of the time, as to the size of the world?

  What weird things have you read in the bible?

  the fact that nimrod's name means: "he stirred up the whole earth to rebel"

  and yet ezra's name means: "help"

  what caused nimord's mother to name him something that had such a negative meaning and yet he turned out to be just that?

  the talking ass....who was beating it...Balek or someone?

  absurd....and the whole fish and loves thing....I think Jesus just ordered some bread sticks online at www.pizzahut.com and had one of the apostles start handing them out.

  Clean break from the WTBT$

  by Honesty in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  is it better to make a clean break from them or to prolong it?.

  i don't have anything other than my own experience to compare with and i made it clean, fast and hard.

  it hurt like being stabbed in the back by a best friend but the hurt went away to be replaced with wounds and scars that are still healing.. how about your experience in getting out?

  fading...and then marrying a nonbeliever...then moving 2100 miles away....

  worked for me.

  Go with what is comfortable for YOU. If you need to have a clean break...just go...but if you are concerned about being shunned by family members, then I would suggest thinking about doing it slowly.

  by NowImFree in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have been out of the jws officially for over 3 years now, since disassociating.

  after researching the history of the organization and reading the bible (without) the watchtower, i am now a christian.

  i am just curious what happens to most ex-jws as far as their beliefs go, after they leave the organization.

  I would like to embrace Jesus and give him a good noogie .

  I think he needs one, Jehovah too....

  Regarding humanist values...I am not what one would call 100% humanist...BUT....I do think that living a "good" life, as in not taking advantage of others to better yourself is just, well good.

  I don't need a reward for that, and I don't think it is really a form of altruism either. I have found that living a decent life is good for ME. What goes around comes around...call it karma...whatever.

  (Btw...for those that I haven't already bored to tears with this....I do go to a humanist "church"...)

  Of course, what is considered decent varies from person to person some times.

  Two of my number rules to live by:

  Don't Litter.

  Please help! I have NO idea what to do with this!

  at work we are supposed to setup "goals" for a "performance review" later in the year.

  i *hate* things like this because i don't understand what i'm supposed to put in the document.

  it is far too subjective with no defined requirements that i can wrap my brain around.

  1.25

  I work from home...I had a partnership with a friend that didn't work out...thought I had to go work for someone else in an office setting, and I have been interviewing here and there....BUT...out of the blue one of my mentors offered me the chance to do some contract work for her, and still work from the house. Cannot beat that!

  So mostly a #1!

  The .25 is because it is an industry I am recruiting that I have not done in years, so it is taking a little bit of time to find my "groove".

  I believe the cheesecake I just had at Texas Land & Cattle was one of the best I have ever had.

  (burp)

  Oh besides that? , agnostic humanistic...with a few touches of objectivism, but not enough to call myself an objectivist.

  I believe in life before death.

  Dang, that cheesecake was good....
