hi candle
I'm sorry, sometimes I kinda just assume people stay believers in God's word and hope the bibles words of peace will reach them.
You seem like a guy that has burned his books (literally), put the witnesses behind him and found a belief you are settled with. Why dig up the past only to make war with it?

hi chalam
18 If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. 19 Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," [a] says the Lord. 20 On the contrary:
"If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head." [b]

a freind of mine reckons that the ultimate in intelligence is to be "serious", never to have any fun, never anything "lowbrow", always watch serious tv programs, always read serious books, disscuss serious subjects etc.. and this means... if you are not "serious" in this manner then you simply cannot have any brains??!!.
i know this must be wrong... but i can't figure out why...?.

hi chalam
I think in this rare case we are in agreement there is time for seriousness but God did not create the abundance around us and an ability to laugh and love in us so we cannot enjoy it and have happiness from it.
Ecclesiastes 3:12
I know that there is nothing better for men than to be happy and do good while they live.

38 Therefore, in the present case I advise you: Leave these men alone! Let them go! For if their purpose or activity is of human origin, it will fail. 39 But if it is from God, you will not be able to stop these men; you will only find yourselves fighting against God."

does wt demand an act of wickedness to prove loyalty to the institution?.
is shunning a wicked act of revenge?.
2 Thessalonians 3:14 (New International Version)
14 If anyone does not obey our instruction in this letter, take special note of him. Do not associate with him, in order that he may feel ashamed.
1 Corinthians 5:9-13 (New International Version)
9 I have written you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people— 10 not at all meaning the people of this world who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world. 11 But now I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a slanderer, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat.
12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? 13 God will judge those outside. "Expel the wicked man from among you." [a]
1 Timothy 5:20
Those who sin are to be rebuked publicly, so that the others may take warning.
these are some of the bible scriptures on the why and wherefores.

1 There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:
2 a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,

i was a false prophet.
i would spend many a waking hour proclaiming to others that i had special knowledge that i was willing to share so that they could survive the impeding doom that was shortly coming upon mankind.
i proclaimed to the world, or at least anyone i came in contact with, that the world would end within a generations time from 1914. i spoke this vile falsehood for years without any remorse.. i falsely spoke telling them that i was participating in a special separating work being done all over the world.
hi homer
are you really using the 2 peter 2 one? because anyone that reads it in context will see it describes these men as promising freedom but becoming slaves to the sinful nature again going back to things God clearly condemns biblically like immorality etc this is not descriptive of witnesses quite the contrary.
18 For they mouth empty, boastful words and, by appealing to the lustful desires of sinful human nature, they entice people who are just escaping from those who live in error. 19 They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves of depravity—for a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him.

the wt and jws around the world have made the evil "trinity" their reason for existence.
when in fact they have quite a mystery of their own.

hi leolaia
There is always a modalism aspect to trinity while they insist 3 separate persons can be one God at the same time. Adam and eve are said to be one, so as one does that make them one human but 2 persons? no of course not they remain 2 persons and 2 humans/adams. they is the only biblical comparison trinitarians can use but they have to insist Jesus, God and HS are not 3 Gods but One God but still 3 separate persons. There is no biblical grounds for this reasoning it's read into it to support their hypothesis.
What happens to Jesus the human creature? according to hypostatic union only Jesus the human creature dies and the God bit goes to heaven joins with the father and then raises himself as god the father with the help of the holy spirit person. So then does the human creature jesus go upto heaven and rejoin his God part?
by the time we get to this point we are creating serious contradictions with scripture. God cannot die, he is eternal so jesus isn't an equal sacrifice because he doesn't die only a part of him dies the human creature. but this is denying the sheer wait of scripture that never hint that any part of jesus son of God lived from the roman centurian at his death.
39 And when the centurion, who stood there in front of Jesus, heard his cry and [a] saw how he died, he said, "Surely this man was the Son [b] of God!"
to revelation Revelation 2:8
"To the angel of the church in Smyrna write:These are the words of him who is the First and the Last, who died and came to life again.
we are already having to ignore scriptures.
14 And (A) the Word (B) became flesh, and (C) dwelt among us, and (D) we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of (E) grace and (F) truth.
according to hypostatic doctrine this is an impossible scripture because the word is the god bit that doesn't die it just gets another fleshly will added to it.
but here is the biggest spanner if the son of God or god the son if your prefer didn't die this following scripture is a massive contradiction
10 This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for [a] our sins.
this is very clear it is the son that is sent that is the sacrifice
This whole mess is created by the insistence that Jesus must be part of the One true God, to keep alive the myth of a triune God.

hi deputy dog
just to clarify what any witness or ex-witness could tell you, is that all Jws think is michael is just a name change nothing else.

HI nark
why did you just make me read all that hypostatic bunf its worse than trinity? :( when Jesus was praying to himself as God did he have an argument with his other-self God inside himself?
I'm done! if anyone can believe hypostatic after it tries to persuade us Jesus is split into two while part of a greater one that is three, then i'm just flabbergasted
