  AGB you have a very imaginative mind. Sick and twisted perhaps, but very imaginative.

  my experience?

  in the past few years, i liked to research stuff on the internet for talks.

  and for experiences, i used to google jw's to see news articles.. then one day last year, i saw this site, and it said that it discusses anything related to jw's.

  I actually remember my first reading a post from the forum.

  My heart started pounding... I wondered if angels were going to be seeing what I was reading.

  Then I wondered if demons were going to be seeing what I was reading. It was freaky.

  Then I wondered if any of it might actually be true. That was when I heard about the

  Bookstudy being cancelled and said to myself NAH! And about the PO's, NAH! And YUP!

  It was true. But there's still a lot of BS'ng and guessing going on here you guys know that,

  right? But I didn't. So my heart kept pounding everytime I'd start reading the site but now

  it's like no big deal.

  an elder said that there are apostates organized in spain to make the sale of the spanish branch money go to the congregations that provided the funds.

  he has photos of the place from an email and had heard this from a circuit overseer who just visited there.

  has anyone heard confirmation of this?.

  Clarifying the Trinity Doctrine

  by UnDisfellowshipped in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  since there is so much confusion among ex-jw's, jw's, and christians in general about exactly what the trinity doctrine is, i decided to post this to clarify this teaching.. the historical trinity doctrine of the christian (protestant and catholic) churches has always been this:.

  * there is only one true god by nature.. * there are three distinct persons who share equally the nature of god.. * there are not three different gods (that is the false doctrine of tritheism or polytheism).. * there is not one person who is revealed three different ways (that is the false doctrine of modalism).. * however, each person of the trinity does have his own "role" or "function.

  " the son willingly obeys the father.
