A small victory or more??

by JG in

jw
friends

last night my wife told me that she would be celebrating the holidays with me and the kids.

she said i'm a good husband and i deserve it.

she also said maybe we should look at other religions together.

Ahhhh The Trinity is just a word to try to help people understand the nature of God. The true problem is the diety of Christ. My neighbor and I were talking, he's 1st church of the Nazarene and i asked him if they are Trinity based and he said. No, we believe that the Father is God the Son is God and The Holy Spirit is God, but we aren't trinity based. I told him that is a great definition of the trinity. I guess the point is that there are alot of non-trinitarian christian churches but most believe in the Diety of Christ.

Anyway we are blocking up my Joy Joy thread with doctrine.

I'm soo happy, but I worry it'll all be taken back. I don't know though because she told me this just hours after her weekly indoctrination errrr weekly bible study. I don't know whats going on in her mind. she wont let on what brought it about, if she has any doubts she will keep it to herself. She is strong willed and wouldn't like me to think I "won". I don't think I have won a argument in 12 years. She hasn't been pushing to go to meeting the last month or two, Hey I have no Idea.

Yea for me,
thanks Kelsey

Last night my wife told me that she would be celebrating the holidays with me and the kids. She said I'm a good husband and I deserve it. She also said maybe we should look at other religions together. (I'm Catholic and she's JW) I said sure I'd be happy too, I said I would 10 mos ago. But she said she doesn't know whether we could find anything because 95% of the religions believe in the trinity. I think the problem is actually the Diety of Christ. what do you think

ALL I CAN SAY I YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!

Help a lurking dub with doubts

by undercover in

i've been lurking about, checking out some of the evidence against the wtbs.

i am currently inactive but still an approved/baptized member.

i have seen all the 1914/607bce evidence; the blood transfusion quandry evidence; the current child abuse problem evidence and several other things that are damning to the wt doctrines.

JG

Hi
I'm not alot of help, I'm worldly ohhhh ahhhhh but as far as getting the books by cash etc. Go to Hastings if you have one and order them that's how I was able to get mine without causing probs with my wife.

Good luck

MAKE NEW FRIENDS

i am a 22 yr old jw looking for spiritual, baptized jw's to be friends with.

are there any real jehovah's witnesses out there?

JG

Hi

Sorry I can't help you, I'm what you would call an unbelieving husband, a bad association, and possibly an opposer (sp). While I didn't chose these labels and feel it's unfortunate that they were given to me, I thought I would be upfront about it.

Never the less the reson for my response is that I'm sorry that you feel that you need to restrict your choices in trying to find a friend. Really out of 65 billion people on the planet you are looking for "spiritual baptised JW's". So out of 65 billion you restrict to Jw's (what about 4 mill) and then spiritual (I am assuming this would then cut out any who you feel is having doubts, weak spiritually, associate with the wrong people, within 10 years of your age hmm anything else.) So that should get you to about roughly uhhhh 6 yes six people in your home town I also accounted for those leading double lives and showing a good face at the KH and then a "Worldly" side outside of the Hall.

I guess that kinda shows what you are up against. There are literally millions of people who live good lives and are godly. You just are restricting your options to to small of a group. I know not of this world..... I had my life touched deeply yesterday by a "Worldly" man who is a fallen away Catholic and a member of the airforce. He showed me more love than almost anyone else in my life. And he's just a friend and coworker. Love is where you find it, You don't have to look hard just don't crush it before you look.

Love and Peace.

Non-JW and newbie to board w/ ?'s...

by BlazingButterfly3 in

where do i begin...well first let me say that i have similar situations with others on this board because i am involved with someone who is a witness.

as i stated in my title, i am not.

i am also a newbie to this board, and i am curious as to know if there is anyone out there who was a non-jw who converted and is glad that they did so?

JG

Hi,

I'm not a JW, but my wife is. It's not the people, Well for some it is but mainly it's the way the religion is run and their theology. Some of their theology is weak some is stronger some is right alot is wrong but the real reason people have a problem with them is.... The lack of LOVE in the congregations, due to all of the man made rules and regulations how the congs. ar run and the fear of outsiders there is a lack of love int the congs. The people are people some are great some really suck but that's people. I love my wife and her family, But I don't know if I would do it again. It's sad I've been with my wife 12 years and it was awesome until she started studying again. The last 8 mos have been continuous heartache and pain, I'm getting better about hiding it but my whole life has been changed. Make sure in what you do and be carefull. Love is strong but so is hate and you'll see alot of that too.

Love and Peace,

Sean

i was thinking that since most of you have experianced shunning due to disfelowshiping or disassociation, that you might have some ideas adn scriptures to show how df and da shunning is unscriptural.

the elders were gracious enough to provide my wife with a packet to show how df'ng is scriptural and gag loving.. sean.
