the lyrics are very poetic and have a lot of meaning for me.. this is an acoustic version, i like (minus the idiots talking in the background) but the lead singer's voice is powerful enough to make you ignore them.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqliwppyvlc.

Hey you who have left the organisation. You should take a look at yourself. Especially those who call name sand are full of bitterness and bile. I suggest you surrender to Jesus and ask for a new heart . At one time you were one of them at oen time you were called names. Now you choose to belittle and slander. I left years ago and found Jesus. I have no desire to call names or belittle. Many who want to leave will see soem of your posts and think they are better off in the organisation. Remember these were your brothers and sisters and still are if they love our saviour. Many are trapped. So how about upbuilding and not tearing down or have you foresaken Christ altogether. by all means discuss teachings and things you disagree with. We should consider all things then we came come to the saving grace of Jesus.

How Does The Message Attract New Converts In Field Service?

by Bubblegum Apotheosis in

.

what attracts new ones into the jw fold these days, the message, the friends, someone to listen to their problems, a personal relationship with god?

what?.

maccauk11

Many dont relaise they already have a belief in Jesus but dont know what to do with it. So someone comes along and robs you of your faith in Jesus. Most are not awake to their spiritual being due to being of the world. They become witnesses study learn etc. After a while many have become awake to their saviour and will find the Lord is calling them out to himself. Thats why many leave for soem its quickly and other sit takes years and soem they stay there evne though they know they dont belong there and belong to Jesus.

Existential Crisis

i know that certian times when leaving the jw's one experiences a crisis of meaning and purpose.

i know i did and i am in a sense still getting over it.but i am doing much better.. tell me some of your stories about an existential crisis..

maccauk11

I think the feelings of isolation are very powerful as you have been conditioned to think everyone who is not a witness is evil. You cna get over it by coming to Jesus he is waiting for you to go to him. You will find refreshment for your soul. He will show you real Truth. You need nothing else except him

Why is the Faithful and Discreet Slave thanked in every prayer?

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

jw
friends

every prayer at any meal,congregation meeting,and assemblyhas the fds being thanked for the spiritual food that they provide.jesus gave us an example on who to pray to and what to say.the society or any human were not included and was not ever mentioned by jesus.the society has always included themselves in prayers.

.

do you think that by including themselves in every prayer,they intentionally try to inculcate that into each brain,so that their powers are never questioned?.

maccauk11

The claim is that they are the mediator between man and God and that Jesus is only the mediator for the so called anointed class. A bit like Catholics who pray to mary instead of jesus

Bethel - the house of the canaanite god El

by mP in

how ironic, that in hebrew the word for god is actually the name of a canaanite god el.

ive recently been facinated by the etymology of word, particularly those in the bible.

anyone can change the meanings or definition of words like we have witnessed with the generation, but the word itself cannot be changed.

the name Jehovah did not appear until the middle ages where was the translation of that name prior to that

When you obtain the rela freedom Jesus gives you life is beautiful so start living in Christ and taste the real life forget the past get out of the churches
