  this was the same man at different times in his life yet he changed his name because he completely changed his ideals and goals too.

  both were extremely zealous, both thought they were doing gods work, both thought they were working for the greater good.. acts 8:3 (new international version)3but saul began to destroy the church.

  going from house to house, he dragged off men and women and put them in prison.. soul thought gods work was to destroy the christians but paul.... acts 20: 19i served the lord with great humility and with tears, although i was severely tested by the plots of the jews.

  By their fruits you will know them. Do you gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles? Matt:16

  Indulge your need to character assassinate but it only shows desperation if you cannot argue the doctrines and focus on imperfection of men instead whether they are real or just gossip.

  Reniaa

  Why did Matthew tells us to look at people's fruit or works to assess them ?

  THERE WILL LIKELY BE MANY MORE TO COME! Problem is, they can be wrong a million times, it only takes 1 person to be right ;)

  It's sounds like some sort of lottery.. somebody has to get it right ! should I keep rolling my dice ?

  

  So should we keep rolling the dice or simply love our neighbor and let God decide in his due time ? How

  many times must one bang their head on the wall to realize it's doing us no good ?

  The thing about women is that they like surprises and they like excitement, and it is important for them to get away every once in a while from their humdrum existence.Men who have dull, boring, lackluster and predictable qualities have the tendency to be shunned by women simply because they do not have enough suspense or excitement in their personalities to be able to generate interest from the opposite sex. (I'm speaking from personal hard experience friends !) .....

  Simply put , it's call creating intrigue !!!!! " 4 : to arouse the interest, desire, or curiosity of <intrigued by the tale>

  caliber if you read the greek scriptures they too emphasised the ungency they were counciled not to expect it too soon the thess tried to say it was happening they got eager (funnily enough they weren't condemned as false prophets) But the urgency is there and we are biblically counciled not to start thinking it will never happen.

  Tell me what exact DATE these eager people set and swore to in God's name ?

  It is like saying an engaged couple aren't guilty of fornication.. they were just eager for marriage intimacies !

  Are you saying that any Christian faith that puts a date on Jesus's return then condemned as false prophet whichever time they did it since the prophecy was written?

  The primary purpose for

  dates are used by the WT is to establish supposed authority given by

  God , seeing that they are a Johny come lately religion with no apostolic succession , a new world religion

  like Mormons and Adventists . The greatest urgency is for the WT to establish it's authority and control over you !

  Hello everyone

  i have been lurking on here for some time and i finally decided to join the fray.

  i am 25 years old and was raised in the society.

  fortunately when i was 8, my father left the organization and this allowed me to see the wrold from both angles, the jw (mom) and not (dad).. at first, i was strongly on the side of the witnesses and i even allowed myself to be convinced that getting baptised at 11 was a good idea.
