  by jgnat in

  this is his request, not mine!

  i've warned him that jwd will give a wide range of responses from the silly, through the angry, to the serious.

  he still would like to hear what you have to suggest.

  It has been my experience that people who understand A truth COMPLETELY have no difficulty expressing it in terms anyone can understand.

  Perhaps hubby should spread a message he truly believes rather than one he would LIKE to believe.

  Not to be mean but hubby should seek some true understanding prior to spreading propaganda that sits uneasily in the mind like a cheap T.V. dinner.

  What is your ultimate understanding of GOD ,YOU and your connection?

  Is god intregral to your being or is it seperate?

  Is god what made you or what you are made of?

  I ask only from a sense of fairness to your husband please understand I wish no hurt , I ask only that he >>>honestly <<<ask himself what he is.

  first seeds of doubt

  by confused and lost in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  just before this weeks book study i happened to say to my wife ,(in a matter of fact sort of way),"that judge rutherford was not a very likable character".i then "dropped in" 1925 and the foretold resurrection of the prophets aswell as some other stuff i had learned about rutherford.i then casually alluded to other dates such as 1799,1874 and 1975.her response was that "they were a fickle bunch".she then said in all seriousness "do you think its right ?

  ",meaning did i think that we are in the "truth"i had to curb my enthusiasm to tell her exactly what i thought,figuring that a- little- at- a- time approach would be best suited to my purpose.hence the first seeds of doubt have been sown.

  exposing truth in a way that allows another to experience it on there own is the most effective way

  I prefer to say it's blind and confused now .

  Use to have a real axe to grind but now I think I can cease and just help with the healing

  I think now that the world is a trap/scam/delusion not just relgions.

  The world at large is just as gulty as any religion for all of the same IMAGINED offenses.

  Self delusion is our biggest offender not confused simpletons pushing an arrogant belief

  But all things being relative "Burn down the mission!"

  FORGIVENESS

  2. bible

  are you obligated to forgive someone.

  ......if they do not ask for forgiveness.

  ......if they show no remorse for the transgression.

  Forgivness is a blessing on the one doing the forgiving

  Forgivness is for self not for others.

  Resentments block vital proccessess and poison the system until it feeds on itself

  Forgivness is a medicine and is harmony with life a ,resentment is a tumor of the spirit which drains life energy

  Forgivness is for anyone who wishes to be free of pain ,holding that resentment is the sickest form of arrogance and deciet to ones own true nature.

  hello friends .

  is it me or do the rest of you notice a tremendous increase in newbies in the last couple of months ?

  what a cool thing to know that these dear new friends of ours have a place to turn to for help, venting, posting their feelings on life and what they have been through and are going through in regards to anything in life.

  We all were victims once or maybe twice or maybe just for a really long time or a short one.

  We are not now . We are free and we are learning

  Learning means the discarding of the old and replacing with the new ( make sure its real "new" and not that fake "new" that sometimes gets shared in places like this ) grow , heal and share.

  IF.....

  by AK - Jeff in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the jw's brought doctrine into a form you could tolerate, reformed the religion to allow better tolerance of those who disagree, and made prolific apology to those whom it has hurt [i know that some have been hurt that are not any longer with us, etc.

  that's not my point.

  ], would you forgive them, and if you still believe in god, would you consider going back?

  Forgivness I can give, thats pretty easy considering the state of most people ie;confused and paranoid

  Believing a single word from someone pushing a SYSTEM OF BELIEFS never ever

  If someone GIVES you a sytem of beliefs they are your enemy . Thats a truth

  I have found something truly horrific.

  by cultswatter in

  2. beliefs

  this is big, very big.

  bigger that pascal petite(well, just as big), bigger than the demonic hand or the rams head in the live forever book!!.

  to present this properly, i will need a scan of the page in the live forever book where the thief is running from the police clutching a bag of goods.
