Money....

by The Rebel in

jw
friends

i believe all our worst nightmare are believing money will make our life's complete.

i am not talking about money providing life's comforts, but i am mortified that contentment and happiness always requires " more money"..ummm i need a window cleaner, a flashy car and a 50inch t.v screen to be happy.

money...well in my opinion we need money integrity to be happy, but it seems such a waste of life to search for the making of money more than ....well what i mean "hey" most of us have more money than most, and would the making or having more money really make you happier?.

Oh great God in the heavens

Please don't let me so poor that i have to look up to everyone

Nether so wealthy that i look down on others

Then i will be a truly rich man

How Should Anointed Christians View Themselves?

by jwdoctrine in

in this coming sunday's study article :”we want to go with you” and paragraph 5 we read :.

“those who partake of the emblems at the memorial should carefully consider the warning found at1 corinthians 11:27-29.

Safeathome, i agree with you. I always used to like the pictures of Jesus, a big man with good muscle definition & hair on his body. Then i think it may have been a couple of years ago came the memorial tract minus the hairy chest. I was mortified, one day they will portray him as a man who went for a back/sack & crack wax just to fit in with the generation.

Missionary suicide..

by fulano in

i just read this.... http://avoidjw.org/2014/12/suicide-jehovahs-witness-missionary/.

does anybody know if this was a "real", missionary, or a need greater and who was it?

if you don't want to mention it here please a pm..

Sabin

the family never got any kind of contact from the society. Suicide, another problem they are leading the numbers in & burying their heads in the sand with. There are always signs that some-one is thinking of ending their life but if you don't know what they are then it's hard to tell. This religion doesn't allow people to freely express their inner feelings, they are afraid they will be put down/reported on/told they are the problem etc, you get the picture. If you start to struggle your declared spiritually weak, not fit to associate with, abandoned. Can you even begin to imagine what that must be like for a man who is used to being looked up to in a cong. He must have hidden himself for a long time. It is tragic & totally un-necessary.

Preaching the "good news"

by truth doubter in

just wondering.

what do those who left wt, and still believe the bible, feel about matt.24:14?

Sabin

Fink, you have taken Geff Jacko's statement to the ARC to heart, "it would be presumptsous of us to say that we are the only ones who speak for Jehovah." No Geff you don't say, well look at the Mormons, double the members double the hours, & just as nuts.

Don't Accept the Blame for Being Shunned

by cofty in

our family and friends blame us for the fact that they shun us.

imagine an abusive husband who threatened his wife that if she leaves him he will hunt her down and kill her.

eventually she finds the courage to leave and he carries out his threat.
