  ok, so you can stop hijacking a beautiful thread on love, post your judgements here for everyone to read:here is one:adam & eve chose to sin and go against god's command-all they had to do was not eat from the fruit of two trees but they couldn't manage that.

  similarly, we have all chosen to sin as well.

  no-one holds a gun at our heads.. first of all, you are incorrect.

  Well He can tell them what He likes-seeing as he created them.
  
  The Supremacy of Christ
  
  15He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. 17He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
  
  He loves us and came and died to save us.
  
  John 3:17
  For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

  Jesus is the judge
  
  2 Timothy 4
  
  1In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge: 2Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction. 3For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. 4They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. 5But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry.
  
  Verses 3 and 4 are cool too!

  i came here expecting to find a range of jw's and check out their beliefs and thinking.

  however, what i find is largely disaffected or ex jw's and atheists etc.

  with hindsight i am not that surprised either!

  Interesting points.
  
  I was never a JW or brought up one. Regardless of what we are taught or indoctrinated with we have to make our own decisions-even at the age of six. For sure, by the age of sixteen I was making decisions with little influence from my parents or any religious upbringing.
  
  On the subject of Islam I have read parts of the Qu'ran. The verses where they say Jesus was only a prophet doesn't make any sense. How can Jesus say He was God's Son and that equate with The Bible? At least one of them is wrong (or both). Anyhow, they have a different Messiah.
  
  Same deal with Rastarfarianism too-they have their own Messiah.
  
  The whole key to the thing is Jesus-that is what the Bible teaches, not Allah, not Jehovah, not Haile Selassie or anyone else.

  Yeah they have zero understanding on what Paul writes about Freedom In Christ.
  
  On the subject of this "Did you ever try hot steamy, totally disgusting I can't believe we did that, lets do it again sex? That brings lasting happiness"-well of course.
  
  However, I don't think it brings lasting happiness, ask any porn star.

  No, I was just responding to the invitation to post your comments here!
  
  eclipse-your theology is very good. Here's a question for you-will God judge us on our theology or on something else?

  Can't remember-what was it?
  
  Does it tie up with The Word? If so I agree.
