  please advise i was brought up as a witness and know the faith of jehovah very well i choose not to follow my dad as a witness as i didnt like the way he taught me the truth hence i know its true.. we are having a party at our house for chikdren ans a mum at the school has been invited she told me shes devestated as she has a ghost and its touching the kids on the landing................. i t freaked me out oviously its saturn the devil or his spirits, i came home said a prayer to jehovah as i do quite often to protect us etc.

  if she arrives at my hpome can the spirts come here, please advise as i dont want to put my family inthis situation , she has told me a priest has taken it away... i dont believe it............ my dad is a elder of the congregation hence we dont speak, he always taught me stay well away and youll be ok, so even though its gone from herehouae id love your thoughst so i can maybe cancell her calling, i certainly wouldnt keep any gift from her in my home... many thanks suzanne dickenson.. .

  Suzanne, no need to believe in demons - they only exist in your mind.

  If you are a good, honest, Christian person you have nothing to fear.

  I even sat next to a brother who fiddled with himself like that! One week I decided my husband could sit next to him as I couldn't face it anymore. That was the very last meeting we ever went to!

  Why do we call Jehovah by his first name and not our parents?

  by life is to short in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i owe this question entirely to hadit but i cannot get this thought out of my head.

  all i heard growing up was that we have to call god jehovah because they are many god's, this way jehovah knows we are trying to speak to him.

  that is just one of many reasons the fds and wt say to why we much call him jehovah.

  I have always thought exactly the same thing.

  I didn't go to a KH until my forties, however, I never felt comfortable calling God by his first name, it always felt disrespectful. I was never one to call my parents by their first names, though I know there are a few children who do.

  They seemed to make such a big thing of calling him by his name and that no other religion even knew his name which just isn't true. I have been to two (not witness) funerals in the past year and Jehovah was mentioned in both.

  Also, I often meet people when I am out, do not have a clue about their name but would always treat them with respect the same as I would if I knew their name.

  Being a Christian can't simply be calling God by his name, attending as many meetings as possible and knocking on as many doors as possible. Many people would be capable of doing these things but it doesn't make them a Christian. It is how you live your whole life, how you treat and speak to and about other people etc. etc.

  A good point made by Life is Too Short.

  I would be grateful if someone could kindly enlighten me.

  Many thanks.

  Do you know what I always thought that. I thought people should live a Christian life because they want to not because they are going to get a prize for it!

  Surely if you are only acting in a certain way to get a prize it loses all meaning?

  Justbreathe, my heart goes out to you, no-one here would want to hurt your bf no matter what, everyone here has had their fair share of hurt and would never dish it out.

  We were just here to support you and your anxieties.

  Elder Patrol said it all, your bf is a good catch for a witness girl or someone who is seriously going to become one, but perhaps isn't right for you.

  I have always had a strong faith and always will. I went along to the meetings regularly before we got married but I did say at the beginning I couldn't promise to become a JW. However, after marrying I seriously wanted to get baptised, that is how strong I felt. However, to be referred to in derogatory terms e.g. "he married a wordly girl, or he married a non-believer" is so not true. It was this kind of talk that put me off.

  The next step would have been "she's not out on the Ministry as much as the others" or "she doesn't attend meetings as regularly as she should" I was looking for Christian love not conditional love.

  You are only on this site because you care so much for your bf and were looking for a way to make it work. This is positive because your feelings are so strong for him.

  Marriage is hard enough at times without your local Elders interfering. For me I couldn't bear to have my loved one referred to as "non-believer" or such like I am sure your bf couldn't bear it either. He would hate to hear you talked about in those terms which is what would happen.

  Again, Justbreathe everyone here is kind and wouldn't wish anything bad for your bf or you.
