I'm reading the Bible cover to cover...
by homeschool in....what the heck have i gotten myself into .
as a sidenote, in genesis 21....abraham threw isaac a party on the day he was weaned.

It feels like its been forEVER since I've been on JWN...I was on vacation & had the pleasure of meeting a couple folks from this site . Since I was livin' the high life in California for a week & a 1/2, I slacked big time on my Bible reading...but my sis read a few chapters each night. i've got a lot of catching up to do! Just finished Genesis. WheW!....god still seems cranky.
What's the deal with the foreskin? Why did god create men with it & then decide it was disgusting? just curious...

Who is the ruler of this world?
by PSacramento inok, so my mom sneaked a wt literature into my kids pack when they stayed at her home on tuesday, the one that says that satan is the ruler of this world.. so my little one sofia shows me and says, "see daddy, satan is ruling this world".. i take a look and read the literature and i tell me little one that, "no honey, while satan can and does try to influence us and succeds many times, god is all powerful and god gace to his son jesus, all the authority in heaven and on earth" and i showed her the passage from matthew.. a also told her that, why we must never forget that satan tempts us that he has no power over us, other then the power we give him, jesus is our lord and all power rests in him.. of course, today when i dropped her and her little sister at my mom's ( she likes them to come over on tuesday's and thursday's), she was ready to ask if i had read that pamphlet, which i said i did, and of course she replied how satan is the ruler of this system of things.. i countered that i know only one lord and that is the son of god jesus, and i know only one god and no one else rules above them and asked my mom where in the bible does it show jesus and god subject to satan.. as you can imagine, that went over well !!.
lmao !.
i bring this up because of the thread on john 12:31.. .

Will definitely consider that, especially after your story...I guess I just need to have a heart to heart with whoever will be doing the procedure. Any other success/failure stories?

Unloaded on the husband of my wife's study sister last night, how much damage did I do to myself??
by insearchoftruth inwell had a really good weekend away from home, but i guess i knew that the respite from the wts would end.
tuesdays are the day my wife has her personal bible study with the sister and she has also had the husband come over on tuesday afternoons so the son can have the pleasure of a bible study (which he loathes, he is a high school junior and has no interest in this stuff).
i get home from work late, after a fairly long day and the guy is still there.
