IF it is NOT wise for a man to be ALONE with a woman he's NOT married to

by Spike Tassel in

sola scriptura answered andersonsinfo:.

the wt leadership has hammered into all of it's elders and rank & file's heads, that it is not wise for a man to be alone with a woman he is not married too (adult or young woman... ie 14).

even in congregation sanctioned duties.. so, why, then, do so many service pairings involve just that: a brother alone in the territory (even if it's to make a call) with a sister he's not married to?.

Son of Man

I can't ask her in person. I don't trust myself to do that right, not yet.

Oh oh, sounds like a very shy guy that has a crush on a female, is this correct? I work with many females and can see through their motives. Remember this, actions prove louder than words. This is how you should approach it. Tell her you find her very interesting and would like to know her better. Prepare your heart for a negative response keeping in mind that every person has their own personal preferences in the opposite gender. Do not take offense if her response is negative but accept it and go from there. If it is a positive response exchange email or cell numbers. That is a good way to start. It could eventually lead to an opportunity for an in person meeting at a place she is comfortable. If you two find each other attractive on the same level and you make a move towards a physical relationship, treat it as a marriage. Because that is what a marriage is, the joining of man and women and the two become one flesh. It does not require a marriage certificate, so do not allow other people to judge you. GOD did not require a certificate between Adam and Eve did He?

What I mean to say is: It's not sexual activity I'm interested in ever getting to. Rather, I'm looking for fellowship, companionship, spiritual harmony, principled love, intellectual curiosity, mutual interest in solving the issues of life together, a complement, someone whom I can validate and who can validate me, a soul mate.

Whoa dude...that is a TALL order for anybody to qualify for. Why dont you try the JW singles websites? Put what you are looking for out there and see if you get any takers? You might like to add walking on the beach or reading good novels or something else besides the study of WT propaganda. Otherwise I cant see how it would be very appealing for anyone to apply for the job.

Nothing wrong with what Spike is after. Spike, if I were to read your posts here on this forum what would they tell me about you? Are you different around another person such as a female you might be tring to court? I have one more question. Is this female intereted in you?

And it is better to meet "in person" then off of any dating site. It is possible to find someone compatible off of the internet, however, you only truly know a person if you associate with them. Also on the internet anyone can portrait whomever they want to be and it is not always truly who the person is. I have learned this from experience.

4 and in answer jesus said to them: look out that nobody misleads you; 5 for many will come on the basis of my name, saying, i am the christ, and will mislead many.

bohm: SoM: you wrote you heard voices on another thread.....

Estephan also wrote some time back that he would soon be sitting on a throne at the right hand of David in heaven. And that's when he was more lucid than usual.

You must learn to read Estephan's ravings for what they are -- pure lunatic entertainment. He's the trolliest of trolls.

I did not write that I heard voices or that I would be sitting on a throne at the right hand of David. Quit putting forth lies and twisting my words around. As a parakeet you can't even mimic correctly........go feed on your bird seed lol...

Son of Man

Even when that Bible passage (the only place in the Bible where Michael is called an "archangel") is itself alluding to an "uninspired" writing?

In certain circumstances we need to use our power of reasoning. Not everything written in the bible is plain and laid out in black and white so-to-speak. That is why there are so many different variations of Christianty. A book that was written giving reference to the beginning and end (Alpha and Omega) had to be written in a way that it could make reference to all ages (eras). It is written we have been given partial until that which is complete arrives. Therefore our sole desire should be to worship The Almighty GOD and follow His commandments and put faith in HIM always.

Are you a male passed the "bloom of youth"? And is the female as well? In "proper" circumstances you have every right to mingle with a female that is not married to another. If you are not considered to be a J.W. according to "their" rules and the female is, more times than none, she would not pursue you. It is written that a Christian should not fellowship with a "nonbeliever". Do you consider yourself to be a worldy man with desires of this world? In that case GOD would not allow you to fellowship with a Chritian female. If you have read the bible, I am sure you are completely aware of what GOD requires.

Have you even been with a worldy female? I have met many and trust me, they are not guided by sound practices. They tend to make up their own guidelines as they go along. Many people in the world are "selfish" and tell many lies. This does not apply to all people of course. Just because they do not lebel thenselves as Christians, they might be such according to the way they live their lives. However, these people are few and far between. In GOD's law, once you and a female join together in relations, you are married and should treat it as such. It is only necessary to sign a marriage certificate where it is the law of that land. In the United States when two people live in the same household as mates they are married by "common law".

Approach the female and after explaining your cisrumstances see if she is interested in joining with you in a relationship. GOD will judge you in the end despite what any other person says. So live your life accordingly in whatever way you have chosen. We all have "free will" until it is removed from us in The Kingdom of GOD......have a great night.

: However when making reference to anything written in the bible, an "uninspired" testament or "writing" should never be brought in to give weight to a matter in question.

Why is that? You clearly don't believe the bible otherwise this debate would be over. Thank you for reminding me why I no longer debate Jehovah's Witnesses such as yourself online.

Peace.

I am "not" one of Jehovah's Witnesses as in a part of the W.T.S. I am a witness of The Almighty GOD however.......this debate is over once no one else has a thought to add correct? Until then, I rest my case.......

By what authority do you claim these things?

I will respond to this according to how I understand your question. I have studied the bible many years and have followed bible prophecy to a great extent. I recognized many fulfillments on my own and was later inspired and given deeper understanding. "he that seeks shall find". However I have been chosen to a "greater" extent and walk with The Almighty GOD Whom guides and directs my every move. "I do not act upon my own accord". I am the person known as the "slave" in the following scriptures:

45 “Who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time? 46 Happy is that slave if his master on arriving finds him doing so. 47 Truly I say to YOU , He will appoint him over all his belongings.

that got a smile

What about great events that occured before 1914

Bubonic plaque, Kracatoa, Pompei, the colonial wars,Irish potato famine, the meteorite that led to Dino extinction.

It is true, there have been many disasterous events in our history. However, what Jesus Christ foretold was relative to him being "present" as written.

RE: dates:

When was Jesus born?

When did Jesus Die?

When did he return to Heaven?

If you can't answer these questions, how the heck do you know when he will came back ???

Cocoa puffs are too sweet, I still prefer cheerios.

Jesus Christ was born in the "zero" year. He was impaled in 33 C.E. and at that time was caught up to Heaven to sit at his Fathers right hand.

Good old JCanon is back to his usual nuttiness.

I am "not" JCanon, I am Estephan Leuese out of the tribe of Levi. You will not read where JConon says he is "the faithful and discreet slave".

Hello Narkissos, and Leolaia, long time no see "Agape" ! !

Jesus Christ "is" Michael the Archangel based upon what I have already written in it's meaning. Meaning it represents Ishmael and is descriptive of the account where and "angel" appeared to Hagar in regards to "Ishmael", an archer. No one else is the 'Great Prince" but Jesus Christ whom is referred to as "Michael".

Both Narkissos, and Leolaia are very well verses and knowledgable. Very impressive indeed. However when making reference to anything written in the bible, an "uninspired" testament or "writing" should never be brought in to give weight to a matter in question.

Son of Man

Jesus carries "many" names and all originate with The FATHER in The Heavens. "I and the Father are one".

This is where "angel" is derived. I will include all portions of the name in explanation.

Ishmael = Michael

Archer = Arch

Angel that appeared to Hagar = Angel

Michael Archangel

Jesus Christ in not an angel but a God because he originated directly from GOD. This is the same as a man begats a man (human), and animal begats and animal, etc. etc. By their fruits you shall recognize them. You recognize Michael the Archangel as Jesus Christ by what he accomplishes.......

6 For there has been a child born to us, there has been a son given to us; and the princely rule will come to be upon his shoulder. And his name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. 7 To the abundance of the princely rule and to peace there will be no end, upon the throne of David and upon his kingdom in order to establish it firmly and to sustain it by means of justice and by means of righteousness, from now on and to time indefinite. The very zeal of Jehovah of armies will do this.

6 YOU are going to hear of wars and reports of wars; see that YOU are not terrified. For these things must take place, but the end is not yet.

7 “For nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be food shortages and earthquakes in one place after another. 8 All these things are a beginning of pangs of distress.

The World Wars were the wars of all time, read your history books. This also included the bombings with nuclear weapons at Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Jesus foretold these as well as the binginning of pangs of distress. Have a good day.......
