I think elders are too busy to be elders. They have so much to do and yet as elders they dont have time to be an elder. (family, work etc, stops them fulfilling that role) did you shepherd? Did you have time for attending to the flock of God?

Think ive changed...can see it quite a bit laterly.PLEASE!!
by angel eyes inputting this out there.....going back 12months ago i was completely different to how i am now.
i am still loyal to jah and dont go against the scriptures, but even though ive recently returned to pioneering (only aux pio at present) i see im a little more laid back.. i think this has come through having to endure hell and back without any help, except jehovah, which im not complaining, im so glad his been there for me, for us both.
but i really believe that due to things that have badly and wrongly been allowed to take place etc its moulded me a little different to how i was.

Let the children decide.
by angel eyes inok, im putting my neck on the line here but ive always believed that children should be raised to make their own choice, if to serve jah or not.. i wasnt ever forced to believe in anything, any religion etc, although my background is very complicated.. anyway, hubby and i have always thought that how can a child decide if they dont know what other things are, ie birthday partys, halloween etc.
so, our children are allowed to choose if to go places etc.
last year our little boy said he didnt want to go to a halloween party, this year he said he might.

Am i being misled by satan or has it been a re moulding for the better.
Did any of you feel like this before leaving? (hope not, never want to leave) but just want to have serious answers please......im really asking as a friend...please :)

Certain cognitive and behavioural deficits suggest that thefrontal lobe functions abnormally in patients with autism, butlittle anatomical research is available to either verify orrefute this. In contrast, several neuropathological and neuroimagingstudies have demonstrated anatomical abnormalities in the cerebellumin autistic patients. The current study shows that frontal lobecortex volume is increased in a subset of patients with autismand that this increase correlates with the degree of cerebellarabnormality. This evidence of concurrent structural abnormalitiesin both the frontal lobe and the cerebellum has important implicationsfor understanding the development and persistence of the autisticdisorder.
JUST a few bits from google....frontal lobes mentioned many times.
