Who is The Lord?
by JW Answers inthe jehovah's witnesses believe that only the father is lord god, however by searching the scriptures we can identify that there are more than one person in the godhead, and the lord jesus as well as the holy spirit are lord.. for those who are interested in learning, feel free to watch this new video..

Paul’s teaching of all sins being forgiven for the gentiles and the JWs?
by Crazyguy2 inpaul teaches through many of his writings using terms like justification, redemption, atonement etc.
that gentiles are not only forgiven of sin both past and present but even their conscience is clean of such actions.
how do the jw teachings get around all these scriptures and pauline books in the bible that clearly teach this???

JWs do technically teach that their sins are forgiven on the basis of Jesus' death even if their understanding of that is different from most xtians.
You can basically say anything an evangelical xtian would say regarding soteriology and a JW would just keep nodding their head but there is a significant difference.
Put simply, xtians believe Jesus died for their sins. JWs believe Jesus died because of what Adam did.

Ladies First
by snugglebunny ini know a lady who says she feels demeaned if a man walks on the outside or opens a door for her or stands aside to let her pass.
i just think it's good manners.
being a gentleman has nothing to do with equality in my opinion..

Your mate cofty has several times asked people to apologise to him on the forum - xant
I can think of perhaps two or three occasions when I have been slandered and asked for a retraction. The one that I recall was that crazy lady who hears voices. What's your point? I'm part no teams or alliances on this or any other forum. If you have a problem with LUHE deal with LUHE and leave me out of it.
I have no interest in reading your squabble but feel free to carry on. I stand by my assertion that (unless they have an oppressive husband or father) females have nothing to complain about in the cult as compared to males.

Diog - "workhorses"?
There is no pressure and very low expectations on JW females. I agree that is demeaning but nothing compared to being a male in the cult.
Imagine being an elder with a family. You are expected to lead FS, attend lengthy elder's meetings, visit others and listen patiently to their endless complaints and personal issues, provide marriage guidance to the usual suspects for the hundredth time, prepare multiple talks and assignments every week, take a lead in hall cleaning and maintenance etc etc. In addition you have to study with your family, provide for recreation (when exactly?) and work full time.
The biggest complaint any female has is that they are not allowed to do any of that bullshit.

You think adults should hit young children so as to 'build up a resilience to pain'.
What sort of explanation do I need to give for condemning that?
