new thinking after reading Collosians

by Honeybucket in

i read the book of collosians and now im really not sure whether the trinity concept is completely false.

maybe i need to read non-jw bible to make my decision.

even the nwt seemed to support the jesus was a manifestation of god to help mankind.

At this point in my life I can say I have more questions than answers. I can not say I believe in the trinity, but I wonder, what if the trinity exists a different way to the definition of the WT?

The very nature can produce three identical persons, but at the same time are different. If that is real in the physical plane and natural, why could not it be in the spiritual plane?

Skbj, thanks. You look fantastic, wow, you have such expressive eyes.

mamochan13, Thank you for post on this thread. It didn't come up to my mind to put it private because I think some of us no longer feel the bonds of WT and we find it easier than others to publish our photos. It's wonderful to be free of that heavy yoke that has been imposed upon us by the organization. It is a process that everyone has to pass to get free, but sooner or later, I hope, we all succeed. Blessings to all.

they had book bags strapped to their shoulders.

they watched me as i turned my car around and i think they might have thought that i was going to clip them.

the younger 20 something year old man, raised his hand to acknowledge me as if to say, "hi and thanks for not hitting us".. they continued their s l o w "pioneer shuffle" and i went my merry way..

They may not speak English, I know what it feels like!

Curiosity may have made 'historic' discovery on Mars

Published: Wednesday, Nov 21, 2012, 13:54 IST
Place: Washington, DC | Agency: ANI

It seems that Mars rover Curiosity has made yet another profound discovery, but mission scientists are keeping quiet for the time being.

As Curiosity continue its cutting-edge laboratory work on the surface of Mars, inside Gale Crater on a plain called Aeolis Palus, mission scientists are itching to announce a "historic" find, Discovery Newsreported.

"This data is gonna be one for the history books. It's looking really good," the channel quoted John Grotzinger, lead scientist of the MSL mission, as saying in an interview with NPR.

But what is he referring to is a secret for now.

For the past few weeks, rover Curiosity has been busily scooping dirt from a sandy ridge in a geologically interesting location called 'Rocknest'.

Using a little scooper attached to its instrument-laden robotic arm, Curiosity has been carefully digging, shaking and dumping the fine soil grains into its Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) and Chemistry and Mineralogy (CheMin) instruments.

Recently, NASA announced some results from SAM after analyzing samples of Mars air. Interestingly, clues as to Martian atmospheric history were uncovered. Also, mission scientists announced an apparent dearth of methane in the air -- a result that undoubtedly frustrated many hoping for the detection of the gas that may, ultimately, reveal the presence of sub-surface microbial life.

According to NPR article, Grotzinger refers to the SAM data as being the source of the excitement.

One of the instrument's objectives is to address "carbon chemistry through a search for organic compounds, the chemical state of light elements other than carbon, and isotopic tracers of planetary change," according to the JPL mission site.

If the new data indicate the detection of organic chemistry, this would certainly be "historic" news.

Also, this would back up the Viking landers' likely discovery of organics in the 1970s -- a result that could only be confirmed after Mars lander Phoenix made the groundbreaking 2008 discovery that the Martian surface is laced with perchorates.

Although the focus appears to be on organics, this is pure speculation for now.

What's so Special About FREE Home Bible Studies?

by Ethos in

continuation of this thread: http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/242543/2/free-home-bible-study.

newyorker: the familiar observation that the bible is the best-selling book of all time obscures a more startling fact: the bible is the best-selling book of the year, every year.

calculating how many bibles are sold in the united states is a virtually impossible task, but a conservative estimate is that in 2005 americans purchased some twenty-five million biblestwice as many as the most recent harry potter book.

FREE Home Bible Study?!?!?

by Christ Alone in

so i finally took a deep breath and watched the annual meeting report.

i found a little nugget before the "new light" discussion began.

there was a report about the "public preaching" that was taking place in manhattan.

Hey Ethos, you can download for FREE e-sword that has more than 20 bible versions,lexicons, dictionaries, biblical exegesis, Josephus publications and a lot more.

In addition, on second thought, who gave a Bible study to the jailer of Acts 16:30-33?

Acts 16:30-33
New International Version (NIV)
30 He then brought them out and asked, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?"

31 They replied, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved-you and your household." 32 Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all the others in his house. 33 At that hour of the night the jailer took them and washed their wounds; then immediately he and all his household were baptized.

The jailer and his family not even studied the questions of baptism with Paul. They were baptized IMMEDIATELY.
