  One law for Adam, another for Satan.

  by jean-luc picard in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so, adam sinned, was unplugged from whatever, and slowly wound down and died.. satan sinned too.

  so why wasnt he unplugged, and slowly wound down, to an eventual death as well?.

  it seems that, left to nature, he will never die, as eventually god is going to have to destroy him..

  In the UK, "I'm so pissed" means you have drunk too much alcohol, so this thread sounds like you have a bit of a drinking problem and have inadvertantly drunk too much to go to the convention.

  In England they say "pissed off". But I think they understand their American cousins.

  Just re-read the thread title: I see what you mean ballistic. Hope he sobbers up for July 4th.

  OK........

  So did He do the same in Japan?

  or New Zealand?

  or Indonisia?

  or Chile?

  Or is He inconsistant?

  Or is the WTB$ just stupid?

  Just found out a Witness works with me-ruined my day

  by Quandry in

  i work in an elementary school as a very low paid teacher's aide.

  of course, most of the staff are teachers who are paid three times my salary and have at least a college degree, many with a master's.

  every day i have to face the fact that i followed the "godly wisdom" from the gb and didn't get higher education (except the degree equivalent from reading all the wts and awakes-i haven't gone to personnell to see how that would work out).. this morning, a fellow aide that i rarely see was coming in the door at the same time i was.

  Hello Quandry. First of all, have a good summer break.

  Mrs P does a similar job to you.

  I was just thinking: this person is probably saying the same thing a JW forum somewhere.

  God is using only one channel.

  And just in case he decides to ditch the WTB$ on day, they will be able to take him to the cleaners.

  "I never thought I would come that close to my retirement in this old system of things"

  by Hoffnung in

  some time ago i was at a family gathering.

  my father and uncles are all long-time elders in their congregations.

  when they were discussing they all were 50+ now, one of my uncles said: "i never thought i would come that close to my retirement in this old system of things".

  Does anyone remember this scripture?

  From memory, Paul said something like "if we have hoped only in this system of things, we are most to be pitied."

  If my memory serves me right then it is a most fiting scripture for those still left in.
