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

by life is to short in

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.

serein

I don't think we need to use gods name jehovah, as we pray through jesus anyways to get to him.

I think god knows if we are praying to him or not.

Why on earth would we want to pray to a false god when we know they are not real.

Also, I think if we were praying to the devil we'd use his name or something and be doing something pagan while doing it.

It's all so stupid, we don't even pronounce god's name right anyways. No one really knows how to say his name.

If he did want us to say his name don't you think he'd have made sure it was wrote properly in the bible for us to use. Or made sure it wasn't changed/hid/removed/etc from the bible.

sorry if i spell things wrong,

i do have dyslexia

but sometimes i dont put the full word in and try to make it short so spell it a bit "diff,"like just then instead of different,

some people on here are the ones im talking about when i mean not nice people, i dont mean to us worldly,

were i live most people arnt nice, they either drugies, trouble makers or sumat,and im not being over paranoid either,

even the babys toddlers run around on streets swearing,

so my house is a bit out of the way,

but if i go out that kind of problem is everywere,

so thats what kind of people i mean,

people who wont work, nasty theifing drugies and gangs,

do u realy think i should start becomeing freinds with that kind of person cos im not,

i do have a few freinds were my son plays sports and iv started to becoem quite freindly with a few they nice,

its just hard when u live some were totaly horrible,

i want to try to find freinds who are similer to me,

iv tryed churches in the past befor i started going to jws, but wasnt comfortable with there teachings either,

i do think its a prob i have not just cos of being in the jws,

im a bit agoraphobic,have been all my life, its hard making freinds and going out,

but i do try, for my kids sake, i keep it quiet no one even knows how i feel in my family as iv never told them,

i wish i could find a place church or sumat that didnt judge u and i could just walk in and sit and listen then go home with no one wanting me to join

or some kind of group who studie the bible but dont follow a religion, but want to try keeping with it if u know what i mena,dont get me wrong im, when i was young i was a biker for a wile and hung out but i was like 16 and it dint last as i felt uncomfortable and so i have done stuf tryed being out there in world befor deciding on setling down and folowing what i realy wanted to do like find the right path ,do what it says in bible, thats what got me in the jw religion in first place,

im so gulible looking for the truth,

iv always been looking since a young girl ,

so im on a path dont know were its going yet,but dont want to be drawn in to another religion,

just want to do things on my own,

everyones "diff "right

the jws didnt make me the way i am iv always been like this,

im antisocial to some degree, but not at all thinking im a better person than others and they not good enogh, just im not comfortable being in the world around me. at mo. so coming out of jw isnt a help as i felt more comfortable with the people in it as regards morals but that was it they werent realy my freinds, its leaving and not noing were to start my life now.

u know what im so pathetic im gona have to pull myself together,

iv decided to do xmas so thats a start my be next year il be singing a diff tune and be much better in myself.

were in the bible does it say u have to give up ur life if u need blood to save urself,

and were does it say if some one gives it u with out dieing its wrong,

were is the blood guilt in it if u not killing anyone to get it when its offerd to u freely by persons willing to give u some of theres to save u.

i know of one woman in perticular who refused when she had twins and she died a few hours later,i was in same position and took it to be here for em whos wrong in ur eyes and whos wrong in gods eyes, i beleive we both right in gods eyes cos she did it thinking she was doing it for god and i did it out of love for my babys so cos god is love he understands why i did it and cares. no one should be put in that situation cos of what the jws say

I have done my first apostate field service today

by DagothUr in

jw
friends

i was invited today to a person who's studying the bible with the jw from my former congo to repair her computer.

inevitably, the reasons for my da came into discussion.

i gave her some good apostate explanations and she seemed to see the light.

serein

Well I had 7 pints of blood to save my life for my kids and I didn't put myself and my selfish desire to live in paradise and leave em all before my kids. I didnt put myself before god or before them. its selfish to die and leave ur kids alone with out a mother just so u can live in paradise its sick, gods not that petty so go shuv ur river up ur behind cos its baloney. god wants me to be loving not self centerd and selfish.

he'd have wanted me to live for them. i'll live in paradise for caring , my kids will cos im here to teach em about god. if i'd died they'd have been brought up not knowing him. and with out my loving guidence to show them the way. only evil stupid brainwashed people let there kids die and let themselfs die.

paradise is for the loving ones. god looks into ur heart and ur actions and them actions are not caring at all. they selfish stupid ones. remember its only a hope no one knows for sure if any of it is even true, and plus the jws deff not true. u telling me that im not gona live in paradise cos i saved myself and lived for my kids rather than let em all get split up and put in a home, if thats so then tell me what loving god would refuse me and let a murderer like hitler live cos he paid for his sins by dieing.
