  Doesn't matter how hard I try I always end up with a bag of odd socks I can't for the life of me find their mates. I suspect I might have Gremlins in my washing machine. What can I do? I'm desperate. I dimly recall that if it was demonic problem I should call on THE NAME but I don't know how many times I should shout Jehovah at my washing machine 7 or 10 ? I remember 7 stood for heavenly completeness and 10 for earthly Like they come from heaven right?but then they got kicked down here and now the little buggers are in my washing machine. I havn't been here long but I've noticed you guys have kept up with the new light. Can you help me. I want to get this right the first time. I don't want to chase them out of my washing machine only to find that they have then moved into my beer fridge. I can live with wearing odd socks but I just gotta keep my beer cold

  About 1993 Mosaic and compuserve???I think it was like a restricted internet service Thanks to the x witnesses who were so quick to utilize this medium I was on the way to recovery. I'd like to add their material and advice was factual well supported without a hint of bitterness just right for me I knew something was terribly wrong but I did not really want to believe that the religion was. I had a lot to lose. So if any of you are listening Thanks heaps I have since spent countless hours helping others: people in no mans land and found it to be a very frustrating experience. So I really admire you. Love you all Robert

  They don't encourage you if they lable you an apostate. I met one of the elders who gave me the boot at the shopping centre. We were having a conversation, all the time he was trying to work out where he knew me from. When he realized who I was : he mumbled something about Satan and took off.

  Introvert or Extrovert

  by FormerMormon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  on exmo sites, we have done polls.

  people who leave the lds cult lean heavily to the introverted side.

  i suspect many extroverts have too much to lose socially to allow themselves to think.

  So let me get this straight

  a web site called jehovah-witness.net where x-jw's and jw's who pretend to be jw's come to chat about how bad jehovah witnesses are and how they brain washed them etc, would it not be more productive to move on and forget than to let something most of you obviously hate take so much of your time and effort.. for some being a jw is about not being part of the world, what other religion is there that is as moral as a jw.

  i am d'fed but i belive that jw's are the true religion.

  sure some of them can be self righteous pricks but there imperfect just like anyone else,we all need to focus on us and not worry about what there doing because we can't change them.. .

  The Ice said "I don't think that people are brainwashed thats just stupid" and that"people that try to push there beliefs that being a witness is wrong on a 80 yr old woman "

  Are you calling me stupid for thinking they are? Tell me who on this board is pushing their beliefs on an 80 year old witness? I think you just want to yank a few chains or as we say in OZ Shit stir I for one say Piss off and take your fallicious ad homineum and straw man arguments with you

  I know where your coming from Oompa. I let go. Stopped bashing my head against the wall. It hurt: I was getting headaches. It's a bit like love, no matter how much you might want someone to love you : You can't make them. And as for running: I am now teaching English in China and loving it. And guess what ? No one ever knocks on my door to tell how bad things are in the world. I doubt the chinese would listen to them anyway. They see the world as it is and always has been and are not likely to trouble themselves with the thought of what it could be. They have careers to pursue families to care for. They are content with their lot in life Sure they want to improve it but they don't put conditions on their happiness saying to thenselves if I had this or if I had that I will be happy

  Come to China Oompa

  Jesus "first born" does not mean "first created"

  by sacolton in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  col. 1:15, "firstborn of all creation".

  "he is the image of the invisible god, the firstborn of all creation; because by means of him all [other] things were created in the heavens and upon the earth, the things visible and the things invisible, no matter whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities.

  all [other] things have been created through him and for him.

  Wow you guys are so smart and Leolaia your beautifull. I am no scholar so please bear with me. Jesus said "the father loves the son" For love to exist their must be an object of that love. If the WT is correct then this primary attribute of God had a beginning with the creation of the Word. Tell me do they still believe that he is also bounded by space living somewhere in the universe. I was a JW once thinking I knew all about God because I knew the name Jehovah when I started reading theology I was humbled by my ignorance. As creatures we can only know what God chooses to reveal about himself. The WT puts him in a box of boundaries Not God at all

  I would choose a sportscar so I could take dear old sister faithfull to the meetings. She finds it hard to climb into those crowded minivans I could get her to meeting faster and the exhilerating ride would be the highlight of her day also with the top down the fresh air would be good for her health. The envy of all the oldies Go Granny
