  the meaning of true love from a man.. by elizabeth rossi, freelance writer .

  i hate to say this but most women will go their entire lifetime and never experience the meaning of actual true love.. it's even slightly depressing to think that most people will never understand how powerful this picture actually is; a prime example of how men should be treating their partner with everyday that passes.. we unfortunately live in a generation with men who have no idea what it takes to be a real man.. let me give you a couple examples of a real man ....... a real man asks about your day and genuinely cares about the answer.. a real man respects your boundaries and never forces you to anything you're not ready to do.. he makes time for you, and takes that time to learn and understand who you are as a person.. a real man consistently shows you the definition of effort with every day that passes.. he will call you randomly throughout the day just to check on you and your mental health.. a real man is undeniably committed to you and looks for new ways to fall in love with you with every day that passes.. he makes protecting your heart a number one priority.. a real man never makes permanent decisions based on temporary emotions.. he never confuses you on where you stand in his life.. a real man apologizes when he is wrong and stays true to his character.. he doesn't mind hurting other people's feeling to protect yours.. a real man gives you affection without sexual expectation.. a real man refuses to entertain any women that isn't you.. he has genuine intentions with you from day one and shows you how it truly feels to be a priority rather an option.. a real man will help you heal from the trauma that nobody apologized for.. a real man values you and would never put themselves in a position to lose you.. take my advice and wait for the man that never let's you fall asleep at night questioning your own self worth.. .

  WT nonsense revealed.

  If Jesus died for Adam's sin then apparently his death was not effective since JWs believe Adam will not be resurrected.

  The meaning of true love from a man.

  By Elizabeth Rossi, freelance writer

  I hate to say this but most women will go their entire lifetime and never experience the meaning of actual true love.

  It's even slightly depressing to think that most people will never understand how powerful this picture actually is; a prime example of how men should be treating their partner with everyday that passes.

  We unfortunately live in a generation with men who have no idea what it takes to be a real man.

  Let me give you a couple examples of a real man ......

  A real man asks about your day and genuinely cares about the answer.

  A real man respects your boundaries and never forces you to anything you're not ready to do.

  He makes time for you, and takes that time to learn and understand who you are as a person.

  A real man consistently shows you the definition of effort with every day that passes.

  He will call you randomly throughout the day just to check on you and your mental health.

  A real man is undeniably committed to you and looks for new ways to fall in love with you with every day that passes.

  He makes protecting your heart a number one priority.

  A real man never makes permanent decisions based on temporary emotions.

  He never confuses you on where you stand in his life.

  A real man apologizes when he is wrong and stays true to his character.

  He doesn't mind hurting other people's feeling to protect yours.

  A real man gives you affection without sexual expectation.

  A real man refuses to entertain any women that isn't you.

  He has genuine intentions with you from day one and shows you how it truly feels to be a priority rather an option.

  A real man will help you heal from the trauma that nobody apologized for.

  A real man values you and would never put themselves in a position to lose you.

  Take my advice and wait for the man that never let's you fall asleep at night questioning your own self worth.

  Yes, I've been told by JWs that Jesus died for Adam's sins and you pay for your sins when you die, i.e., by dying....unless you make it to the GT and then ones death has questionable merit if there is no repentance and faith towards the Gb, i.e.,Watchtower channel of truth, during that period.

  How does the Govering Body get enlightenment?

  by no-zombie in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  from the earliest of times of the catholic church's ecumenical councils were used to make major changes to its doctrinal direction.

  decisions were made by bishops, they were ratified by the pope ... and it was done.

  and the laity had to accepted them or not.. and while splinter catholic religions accepted most of these councils, non-trinitarian faiths which developed latter (of which jehovah's witnesses are apart) did not.

  I believe they have claimed angelic influence, heavenly guidance from Pastor Russell and aid from holy spirit. Of course Jehovah himself, from time to time, has purposefully misled them to keep them humble.

  Excellent video!

  A little repetitive after the half way mark.

  Basically saying that he could not be true to himself as well as others as a PIMO. Better to lose your family than yourself/integrity.

  What makes a cult (in the pejorative sense)?

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  michael moore writes:.

  a cult is an organization that enslaves minds and destroys families using cult mind control.

  cult mind control involves orchestrated deception, social pressure, psychological abuse, and repetitive indoctrination (brainwashing) centering around an unchallengeable ideology enforced in a totalitarian way in a closed socially-separatist community setting.
