this scripture stands out to me...... 1 cor 1:17-21 for christ dispatched me, not to go baptizing, but to go declaring the good news, not with wisdom of speech, that the torture stake of the christ should not be made useless.. 18 for the speech about the torture stake is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is gods power.
19 for it is written: i will make the wisdom of the wise [men] perish, and the intelligence of the intellectual [men] i will shove aside.
20 where is the wise man?
They preach the book of mormon.
I've had Mormons at my door more times than JWs. They come with the Book of Mormon but they also have their JST. Not unlike the JWs who come with their Watchtowers in addition to their NWT.
Trinitarians Preach a 3rd century derived triune God
Uh-huh. And JWs preach their 3rd century Arian creature-Jesus. Is this thread about the preaching work, or doctrine?

I always ask the dubs how, if no one else is "preaching the good news worldwide", did "Pastor" Russell first learn of Christianity? Where did he obtain his first bible?
what is it with jw and the abaddon.. i hear they say what jesus is the angel of destruktion abaddon.. is it true?.
insigst 1 p 12 about abaddon qoutes this.. the interpreters bible says: abaddon, however, is an angel not of satan but of god, performing his work of destruction at gods bidding.. but if we read rev 9.. we can clearly see it is satan here is talking about.. and if you read on to capture 11.. then they are finish, the beast will come out.. but don't jw say the beast is allreaddy out?
and it looks like the beast serve abaddon, since it comes from the same place as he.. i allso foud this homepage.
i believe originally they taught that Abaddon was Satan, then flip-flopped to Abaddon being Jesus. I'm sure Jesus was appreciative of being identified as Satan by his "faithful and discreet slave" for all those years.....
prince is in the july issue of ebony.
in the article they called him a devout if questioning jw.
i dont see what he was questioning.
In the article they called him a devout if questioning JW
First I've ever heard of him "questioning". Has anyone ever heard that Prince was questioning his faith?
life in paradise...what will it be like?
so many questions.....let's see what "the faithful slave" has to say about it.. golden age aug 25 1926 p.751 "negative gravitation...you may have wondered how accidents will be avioded in christs kingdom, since we are told nothing will hurt or destroy.
scientists tell us there is enough atomic energy in one finger-nail to propell a battleship.
I always wondered how it could be that in the Paradise™ there would be no accidents - not even the painful stubbing of a toe.... Now I know....
Negative Gravitation!!
i'm sitting here working away and about half an hour ago, i felt everything start to shake.
i thought "what the heck is that?
" they're doing construction next door so i thought maybe that was it, but apparently, we just had a earthquake here in southern ontario and quebec.. anyone else feel it?.
estranged hubby went to convention on sunday, he so excited "here is the explanation we have been waiting for, it makes so much sense, its to do with the tribes of israel and the overlap".
omg yawn .....yawn, what ......still dont get it, can someone explain lol please hahahaha.
Is this really the best they can come up with?
The verse says "Joseph and all his brothers and all that generation"...... not "Joseph and all his brothers and all their children and all their grandchildren and all their great-grandchildren and all that generation".
Ex 1:6 actually contradicts their latest generation interpretation...

I think the real reason is that it's not really porn they're worried about...it's the Internet.
Undercover, you are so right. Paragraph 9 is ostensibly about the dangers of pornography, but its real purpose is to scare the rank and file away from the Internet.
Imagine an Internet where porn comes looking for you. Just logging on puts you at risk! With every opened email comes the risk of a porn explosion! And to make matters worse (if that were possible), it takes only a "glimpse", just a "brief brush" with this pornography to cause irreparable damage to your mind.... And in case you don't believe us, here's a "Christian brother" and former porn-addict to tell you about his 25 years of hell battling against the images that are now permanently burned into his brain.
OBVIOUSLY, using the Internet is just not worth the risk....
