Perhaps you are happy for all the good things that you experienced today and you would like to thank God for it??? What prevents you from doing so? God is not respecter of men ...

John 2:19-22 and the bodily resurrection of Christ
by booker-t ini must admit after talking about this subject with evangelical christians i am still not sure why do they hold onto this false doctrine that blaspemes jehovah god and jesus christ and just cannot be proven from the bible.
i have talked to christians for years regarding this doctrine and while i try not to debate anymore like i used to do i still have christians trying to read john 2:19-22 to fit their doctrine.
i always like to take the verse piece by piece to show christians their errors.

By the way you express yourself I can see you don't consider yourself a Christian? You talk of Christians like if you were Muslin, Hindu, Budhist? What faith do you profess?

WTS Legal Dept: "Try to make your kids seem normal."
by irondork injust finished reading the segment on setting double standards from in search of christian freedom.
franz gives as an example what is probably the most wanton display of in-your-face hypocrisy.. citing a brochure produced by the legal department designed to help witness parents in child custody battles:.
this can be used to show that they are normal.

As someone who was raised in that cult, this is one of the things that really makes me mad, well perhaps frustrates me more, we know that it is all lies. Like the blood thing, gosh I see how stupid I was now, I didn't know anything about the whole issue, let's not forget all the medical and scientific info behind, I taught and indoctrinated to say NO BLOOD. I was so irresponsible as a mom, when I was about to deliver my first baby I signed the consent form for no-blood without knowing anything about it. Thanks God nothing happens but I was really in the dark, like a parrot I only learned to say NO BLOOD, NO BLOOD, NO BLOOD.

Watchtower admits Bible Teaches Trinity & hellfire!
by williamhconley inthe wathtower admits that by reading the bible alone without their help, people will believe in the trinity, hellfire, visible return of christ, heavenly hope for all christians etc etc.. here's the quote:.
"from time to time, there have arisen from among the ranks of jehovah's people those, who, like the original satan, have adopted an independent, faultfinding attitude... they say that it is sufficient to read the bible exclusively, either alone or in small groups at home.
but, strangely, through such 'bible reading,' they have reverted right back to the apostate doctrines that commentaries by christendom's clergy were teaching 100 years ago..." (watchtower, aug. 15, 1981, p. 29).. why would people revert back to christendoms doctrines unless the bible actually teaches them!.

Yeah I have read that before ... so Am I a copy-Satan for believing what God, the prophets, the law, the psalms, the apostles say about Jesus being the only Mediator for me not the Watchtower CROOKPORATION? Am I a copy-Satan for following God's commandment to read and meditate the Holy Scriptures daily and teach them to my children who in turn will teach them their children for generations?
Satan was a murderer since the beginning and the father of lies ... JWs are murderers in Jesus' book, they salivate at the THOUGHT of billions of people being killed in their "armageddon" - they rejoice with Satan in the destruction of GOD's own creation. God's will is that NO ONE perishes ... JW's will is for everyone to perish soon, yesterday if possible. Do I need to talk about their lies ????? No? I thougth so. Thanks.

I am very happy for you Timothy because what you're doing will cleanse your soul faster than any counseling sessions would (although very good to open your eyes but yours eyes are being opened already). I went through the same, at the time I had bought another bible with Jesus' words iin red because I only wanted to know what Jesus' said according to the writers and apostles. Sometimes I read things that made me go to the New World translation to make sure it was there, it was like reading stuff for the first time in my life. I literally felt like I had cataracts or something in my eyes before and I felt it coming off. I felt like my brain was being cleaned of spiderwebs, but there was something spiritually going on in me.

"That's what Armageddon will look like."
by AllTimeJeff ini couldn't put the words back in my mouth.. that is what i said, without premeditation, to our car group on tuesday, september 11, 2001.. on that day, as an elder, i was out in fs.
in dealing with the shock of what we saw and were listening to on the radio (like good little pioneers, we didn't stop our day, we used this as an opportunity to preach...) some of us were showing the bits of humanity that the borg hadn't completely stolen from us, myself included.. we got an unusual amount of people who talked with us that day.
opinions as you can imagine varied.

Things may not look right at the moment, but things will get better but you also have to be intentional about it. I second all the suggestions given before, read about cults, research the Watchtower Corporation from its beginnings, and if I may add do not stop talking to God Creator (if you still believe in that). Not related but once I told God, I am willing to die for you (and I mean it) but I will not remain married for you (was in a bad marriage ... husband liked another man better ) but anyway, being truthful and honest with GOD helped me so much in that period of my life. Good luck.

Credit Card Donation terminals are currently being installed in JWs Assembly Halls...
by AndersonsInfo ini received the following email from a former jw that i thought to share.

What a loving arrangement provided by Jehovah.
But this is SO wrong in light of what they have written against it in the past ... at least other denominations have shelters, orphanages, health clinics, food and water supplies, housing projects, all over the world, this denomination pretends hungry people eat the magazines.
I am actually very concerned for my mom. I will warn her and all of my brothers and sisters to be careful that she is not using credit cards to give donations.
This country, USA, is in deep problems because of its DEBT, the Watchtower CROOKPORATION is part and keeps adding to this system ... it is what I have seen all of my life, they are part of this system of things as well ... just imagine all the business they generate for third party vendors, money money money.

Is there anyone sick among YOU? Let him call the older men!
by TimothyT ini was reading the letter of james before and i came across a verse which a brother on my judicial comittee shown me:.
14 is there anyone sickamong you?
let him call the older men of the congregation to [him], and let them pray over him, greasing [him] with oil in the name of jehovah.

I am glad you do your research ...
"Keep asking, and it will be given to you. Keep searching, and you will find. Keep knocking, and the door will be opened for you."
Spiritual sickness for me would fall under: Is anyone among you in trouble? and the answer LET THEM PRAY (not call the Elders). Perhaps you could research the word trouble in greek - I am connecting away from home right now.
