  X 'Hovahs Who Still Believe

  by TR in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  caught inbetween the wt doctrine and being "worldly", x 'hovahs live a strange life indeed.

  sampling what the world has to offer, yet remaing loyal to wt doctrine is the dichotomy that is the loyal x 'hovah.. my friend, let's call him "gomer", is such a person.

  undoubtedly bothered by this situation, gomer refuses to delve into the world of the truth about the "truth".

  I am new.

  by Utopian_Raindrops in

  2. friends

  ok everyone...i am new.. i don't know what to say....just hello.. i am a disfellowshipped jehovah's witness...which maybe one day i will get in detail about....but right now it's still too painful.. besides if i talk about it i feel like i am talking bad about people or hindering jehovah's spirit with others.

  i realy try to shy away from speaking badly of people...even if they hurt me.. what i believe in my heart is no one can truely hurt you if your standing with the creator is good in his eyes.they in reality hurt only themselves,because they hinder thier relationship with our maker.. i do not like to talk bad about any religious group realy because, i think what if jehovah some how aproved of them and then i am introuble!.

  i can't remember where the scripture is but it is about the apostles and the advice was to let them go....and if they were from god then you know....but if they weren't then it would end...thier preaching and basically god would take care of them.. i feel jesus could say the things he did of religious leaders because,well.....he is th son of god and these people claimed to represent his dad.

  What you are feeling is probably guilt. This is exactly what they want. Remember "BY THEIR LOVE YOU WILL KNOW THEM" .... I always thought they were more into control than love.. No one is perfect and Christ said forgive up to 77 times. The witnesses do not do this. Live long and Prosper! Spock

  I'm sure most people have heard of pyramid schemes to make money. As far as I know they are illegal in most states, because the people who start the scheme are the only ones to make any money. I think the Watchtower is based on this type of pyramid scheme and should be banned. Spock

  greetings from the land of ice and snow,,,, last week i watched a tv show on the iceman found frozen in alps, about 10yrs ago.

  it was an update on what scientists have found the last few years.

  they say he is 5300 yrs old, which would put him at roughly 3300bc.

They say he is 5300 yrs old, which would put him at roughly 3300bc. They found an arrow tip in his back {which was new to me}, But also the contents of his stomach. It contained venison and goat meat mixed with assorted plant matter. 3300bc was before the flood according to witness doctrine. I remember learning preflood people were vegetarians, And man only started eating meat after the flood. ...... Any comments???

  Crisis of Conscience was a very good book, but I thought IN SEARCH OF CHRISTIAN FREEDOM was better. He talked more on the Witness doctrines and explained a different viewpoint that was very easy to understand. Good Luck..........Spock

  Are we really apostates?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if the jehovah witnesses are really the one and only true religion, and we did quit, then i agree that we are apostates.

  but since we seem to all agree that they made wrong prophesies, and changed so often the meaning of the bible, why then do we call ourselves apostates?

  if we quit a religion that didn't have the truth, then why are we so hard on ourselves?

  If you think about it --- Jesus was an apostate. So- logically-- we are in good company!!

  Kingdom Hall decorating ideas

  by freedom96 in

  as the holidays approach, i find myself in a festive spirit, though a bit fiesty as well.. i couldn't help but think that some of the local halls could use a little decorating for the holidays.

  many halls have signs out by the street.

  wouldn't they look better with a few stockings hanging from them?.

  I think a statue of Saint Russell and Saint Rutherford would look good in all the halls.. After all wer'nt they God's Faithfull and Discreet Slaves. We should show a little respect! :]
