If you are embarrassed by your faith/doctrines/beliefs to the point that you hide it from others [even when doing field service initially]...then you might be a JW

you may be a jw ........if you spent last saturday traped in a car with at least 4 other people you may be a jw.. if you have sat through a sheparding call where you were told you are unworthy you may be a jw.. if you have alienated your worldly relatives with your preaching you may be a jw.. if you have ticked some one of buy knocking on their door on one of their religous holidays you may be a jw.. if you think the governing body is goods direct channel you may be a jw.. if you have no clue when this system is going to end you may be a jw.. .

i was driving home the other night and felt god say to me that i needed a fresh anointing.. .
i came home and told my landlady what happened to me.
the first thing she said was "how do you get a fresh anointing?
A fresh annointing?
That's an annointing with back talk. You don;t have to take. There is help available
to honor the son is to honor the father.. i am a practicing jw who i believe is of the heavenly calling.
this post is not to criticize wts but to open honest discussion among mature followers of christ.. there has been much controversy around the wts doctrine regarding the arch angel michael.
as many are aware, wts believe that jesus in his pre-human existence was michael , gods first born.
Designs, don't confuse me please, I was making a point.....what was the question again?

Lets go to the tape. What does the Word of God say?
Heb 13; 8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today, and forever.
So, if you believe the bible, I guess it's different then the WTS Jesus, eh?

i am ecstatic to hear that people are attempting something like this.
i have always thought that using marijuana could be likened to using wine as a medicine.
There can be as many strains of weed as there can be types of dogs.
Or a better analogy could be types of wine..depending on the buzz.

listening to a retro lunch...... this queensryche song comes on....... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhat-xuq6dw.
the only song from them i like for 1 reason........ pink floyd rip off...... hidden voices..... and the corny...........help me!.
lmao!!!.
Loved the Floyd. Too bad that Water's ego ruined great chemistry. He wrote the words, but Gilmore has that sound that others wanted on their albums [Pete Townsend and Paul McCartney to name a couple] I do not know of anyone asking Roger Water's to play on their album, but I may be wrong.
Although Momentary lapse of reason was not the typical Floyd rock opera, it did set up a much better division bell. That is one of my favorites [just like the final cut]
just mho mind you.

so, at my house we have a christmas party annually.
i told my koolaid drinking bro that i'd tone down the xmas part if he and his family would come and they said 'yes'.. my parents and other siblings are very merrily shocked.. my question to this board is....what should i do or say or not do or say to keep the peace should jw topics arise?.
i guess i'm looking for advice to get them to think without scaring them off.. thanks,.
Thanks so much Band, DOC and Mind blown. I know ofcourse that all of you are right. My direct approach has not worked in years, so there's no sense in keeping that tact.
I must submit to common sense.
Thank you all for confirming what I knew, but didn;t want to admit.
Merry Christmas to all!

Thanks TM and DN. I was thinking the same thing, but on the other hand, because they did decide to go I [hoped] it might provide another chance to say SOMETHING. Of course, actions do speak louder than words.
Gratefully yours,
