unstoppableravens--- i do not know that much concerning this matter, but i would surely believe the fds over what your reasoning is. And in a sense a Jw does change their lives around so that persay they are bornagain in a sense. A JW strips off the old personality( worldly) and trys to live a righteous life with their whole heart,soul, mind,strength. Isnt that the idea of becoming born again?

kjw53 i am offering you a challange!
by unstopableravens ini want to have an open and honest discussion out in the open between just you and me, about if being born agian is only of the 144,000 or is it a must for all to live forever on earth.
neither of us can avoid questions and must answer the other question before ,the other can ask another question.
no going off topic and only talk about this.

Is this a new low?
by Darth Eowyn injust had a couple of jws stop by my house.
they had been before several times and know that i'm a pretty devout catholic, so i'm sure they were just swinging by to get more time for the card.. well, this time the opening line was about the tragedy in ct. i mean, really?
you're going to try to get converts by capitalizing on this tragedy?

It would be quite impossible to get lower than the works of the trinity religions for the last 1750 years or so. Millions upon millions slaughtered( wars of hatred) the rev war, the crusades, the inquisition, the civil war, ww1,ww2) where the supposed brothers in Christ murdered each other on the orders of corrupt men and all of those family lines cut off as well, the bloodguilt has amassed to the heavens.

I was the weird kid in the class....
by punkofnice in.......because i was raised a jw and not allowed to do anything like birthday parties and the like.. i was ridiculed because i was dragged around on the 'ministry'(tm) and my class mates saw and laughed.. i wasn't allowed to go into school morning assembly even though it wasn't religious...just in case.....so i used to get beat up in the cloak room.. i tried to fit in but had too many guilt trips.. i now loathe the god concept and the gb!.

punkofnice---- in Jesus day the true followers and their children were cheered and jeered and thrown to the lions and murdered as a public spectacle. Proving that satan is the ruler of this world( system of things) as Jesus taught. The followers in Jesus day stood strong and beat satan.
I also had a hard time in school standing up for Jehovah and turned to smoking to try and fit in, but thank God i came to my senses in time and turned back from trying to fit in with wickedness.
There are two choices in this world--be no part of it like Jesus taught his followers would be hated for-- or join in to fit in.

Mr Russell said peace would be taken from the earth in 1914--he was correct--- He saw the first ride of the white horse( rev 6) by Jesus who recieved his crown( 1914) he erred by putting a date on harmageddon, but was absolutly correct on the other two events. The rapture is a false teaching that is not found in Gods written word.

Here's A Pictorial Antidote To WT's "Wicked World" Rhetoric.....

It was Jesus who said--satan is the ruler of this world. Yes every human on the planet has a form of love as all did in Noahs day as well. They do nice things for each other, they love,share,care just like the people in Noahs day did as well. Here are some with such a strong love for Jesus and their fellow man that they spent their time doing powerful works in the name of Jesus--yet Jesus rejects them-Matt 7:21-23.
Yes there are many kind deeds done on a daily basis--not only from those claiming to be christian, but from muslims,buddists, etc,etc,even those in prision for crimes against humanity do acts of kindness. Hitler did acts of kindness,had love in his heart--Gods word teaches that even the wicked love their family and friends but it is to no avail. i guess the biggest problem for mankind is that they think they say what is wicked and what isnt, but it is far from truth--Gods word has clearly shown what God says is wicked. That is why it is a wise decision on everyones part to listen to and apply this teaching of Jesus-- Man does not live by bread alone, but by every utterance of Gods-- That means applying every utterance.
It is a good thing to have good works according to James who taught--faith without works is dead--meaning--by doing works it builds ones faith into a strong living faith--without doing the works ones faith is worthless. Anyone can say i have faith, but is it true?

Its impossible for the faithful and discreet slave to include the entire body of followers. 1) they are to give spiritual food at the proper time( lead teachers) the master( Jesus) apointed these over his domestics( teachers) also will appoint them over all of his belongings( flock) So the faithful and discreet slave are Jesus's appointed top teachers.

ldrnomo-- You will never alter my view, i can clearly see the JW,s have truth- You all judge on what individuals do, you are sadly mistaken-and you are right-is just a waste of time here, i was confused from the title of this board- it should be changed.

Mouthy-- Jesus appointed the faithful slave over his domestics- You call him a liar by not believing his words. The false religious teachers in Jesus day called his new religion a sect ( cult ) as well. same happening today. Why- Because the fs learns from the holy spirit-The false religious teachers learn in schools of men.
