"Jehovah will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear"
by highdose ini used to pin all my hopes on this scripture, cling to it no matter what.
eventually i realised that it was rubbish!
life in the borg is so tramatic that it will often be way beyond what you can bear, and the only "comfort" you might get?

Here all this time I have been remembering the scripture as saying (take more then you can bear). I don't know how I come to that conclusion so I looked it up in the NWT, and the Jerusulum bibles. The NWT bible says (tempted), and Jerusulum bible says (tried).
I am still not real sure how I come to the conclusion, but it is just as well that I interpret it that way because I know from personal experiences that a person can acually die from lack of love or a broken heart, and I beleive that death some times is a blessing from God, a way out.
I beleive that stress is the number one killer of all time. Stress breaks down the immune system, desease moves in, and then death.
I have been told that there has been studies to verify that a new born child being given all the new born needs to stay alive (food, clothing, shelter,etc.) will die in a matter of weeks with out love.
I beleive this in remembrance of my sister that died at age 48, then my brother that died two years later at age 48.
I can forgive the witnesses because I know that some other SOB could have come along and spoiled my day.
I pray to God to give me the strength to carry on...

Ladies: How do I get her to stop flirting without being mean?
by Elsewhere inthere is this girl at work who has been making it painfully obvious that she's interested, however i'm not interested in her.
so far i'm just acting as though i'm not seeing any of the "making of eyes", "any excuse to talk" or other general flirting.
ladies, how do i make her stop without being mean?

If you want to draw the other employee's attention so it embarrass her so that she may slack off.
Tell: about this new camera that has a new type of shutter that works really well, the shutter opens and closes so fast that it can actually take a picture of a woman with her mouth shut.

The earth would be brought back to the way it was ment to be with the waters devided by heaven creating a canopy of water around the earth, making the earth into a planetarium. The earths temperature would be pretty much the same comfortable temperature all the way around.

Just thinking back on something I don't remember real well how it went, but there was someone that was with God and then joined up with another group that God had the whole group slaughtered, and provided only the one person that used to be faithful a burial. That was to show that Jehovah has a book of memory and he never forgets.
Does not make sense to me that God would do a favour for some one that was to stay dead.
We can not see the heart, so we do not know the reasons why this person went with the other group. May be he just had to for finacial reasons or any other reason to survive.
People need companionship to survive, and in order to get it any some times, DF or other reasons people need to go else were to get companionship. They sure are not going to get it at the KH.
Just because they look bad over there to some does not mean that to God

I am sure we can say this is official:
by OnTheWayOut inwithout data to back me up, i am still positive that no group has preached "armageddon-soon, any-minute-now" longer than the group that became known as jehovah's witnesses.. with 130 years under their belt, they gotta be the champs.
oh, there have been groups that knew the end was coming eventually, but they weren't preaching it like the jw's were.
there were groups more sure of their doomsday, but the groups are gone or their campaign has ended.. jw's are the champs..

They say that being wrong about when armageddon was to come does not mean that they don't have the trufth because they are not perfect. Well no one else is perfect either so everyone must have some trufth. Then
They say that the (Isrealites or who ever it was?) come to Jesus and asked him if he come to fulfill the prophecy, and Jesus replied "no not at this time" so that is JW excuse that the Isrealites were wrong and they were still God's people.
The people that asked Jesus was doing just that, asking a question. The Jws on the other hand was making a prophecy that did not come true, so there fore the JW thing is a false prophet.
official?
