i thought the topic of religion would be a great one for facebook.. wow, was i wrong about that.. http://www.facebook.com/pages/god-is-not-divided/112694992130588.
the only people are show any interest at all are catholics.. witnesses seem to avoid every venue where somebody else might show up.. zionists do likewise; but they have a different reason.. but, god yhvh is god of the whole earth, is my point.. anybody got any idea what i can do to stimulate godly conversation on my page?.
i'm tryin' to minister to the merely-confused as witnesses do out in service.. .
What a wonderful contribution this is!
Thank you so much.
Well, the GB is chasing people off with their heavy-handed dogmas.
So, let's start over. Yes!
"This is not intended to start a new religious hierarchy, but to allow the free flow
of the holy spirit in peoples worship. This is more a re-establishment of services
held in the houses of devotees, as done originally by Jesus disciples.
if the gb are so obsessed with personal and interpersonal behavior, why aren't they looking to holy law, to set their priorities?.
the torah?

This is clearly so.
Okay, so we can dispense with their blasphemy. They are NOT the cat's meow.
We all agree. Okay. So now what? Can't we get together just to talk about how to get along?
Jesus had some very good ideas about this; and I'm still committed to revering a Creator God.
I'm an old lady, and I live among immigrants of the Cathoolic, Buddhist, Sikh, Muslim and non-Faith ideologies. Ok.
I want to start a MeetUP Group, to meet for Reflection, in San Jose for an hour or so per week, no cost to anybody.
I'll support it, and it's GOOD to reflect on Existence and Cosmology and Meta-Physics and ALL THAT regularly.
One day out of the 7-day week, why not just kick back and figure things out?
So, if it costs $30 a month to set up a MeetUp Group for this purpose, how do I go about it?
I tried setting up a "Community of the Galaxy," and it FLOPPED about a year ago.
Zero interest, even though my MeetUp Group Page looked FINE (to me, anyway).

It's the BABYLONIAN (Anu-NaZi) TALMUD that sets up classes of people--NOT the original laws of Yahweh (Jehovah).
Oh. I forgot about that.
Now I realize the "apostle Paul" (who never walked with Jesus, whose story was trumped up in the 3rd century & inserted by church fathers)
says, the Law doesn't matter anymore.
Okay, so WHY is the governing body obsessed with personal and impersonal behavior, separate and different from the Laws of Jehovah?
There is NO TWO-CLASS SYSTEM in the laws of God; NO "little flock" and "great crowd."
Indeed, Laws covering Foreigners state, everybody has to be treated equally and judged equally.
So, why is the Law ignored but the GB pursue doctrines that differ from Jah's Laws?
Just wondering.

this is another general question for the board and i ask your indulgence because i am trying to understand how others think.
if there truly is no god/god... what is wrong with the existence of religion?
See the difference? He calls himself a "slave to Christ."
I'm NOT a "slave to Christ."
I'm an admirer of YHVH, the Creator who knows DNA-code, light diffraction, gravity and particle physics.
There's some differences here. Maybe we can explore those, eh?
She--
if god is almighty, would he not have preserve the true church that jesus and the apostles build today?
instead of letting satan and apostates infiltrated the true church,so that its true teaching and the true church perished or was rejected by both jehovah and christ because of apostacy!if the true church survived and is with us today, where do the jehovah s witness organisation stand?.
I don't believe, now that we're down to the wire [Armageddon itself] that there is any "true" Church surviving.
Isn't that what Revelation means when it says--Rev 6:10-11
Revelation 6:10-11 New International Version (NIV)
10 They called out in a loud voice, “How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?”
11 Then each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the full number of their fellow servants, their brothers and sisters, [a] were killed just as they had been.
Sorry about the version. It's what came up first.
If we are "in covenant" with God, and busy telling HIS Truth, we are victims of pogroms. We are suppressed, oppressed and having a hard time.
I don't know a single church that ALLOWS the Truth to be told, do you? Not one.
And the TRUTH--to me--is, Accountability for our behavior is a cosmic Law. That's all. How we treat people is THE COSMIC ISSUE.
It doesn't matter, what we believe, what we think, what we wish, or what we know. What matter is, how we behave toward others.
And that's my whole point. I want to be friends, not enemies. And I'm not planning to control anybody here.

Jeff, you are funny.
Maybe that is the true meaning of the scripture: "Each one will sit under his own vine and fig tree". We are each and every one our own so-called temple. If we find like-mined individuals to associate with, then, great! "Where there are two or three gathered together in my name, there I AM."
Maybe that's why some of us enjoy this board. We are all different, but alike, too, in that we are mostly open-minded free-thinkers who have broken free from repressive religious dogma. The connection is there, but it doesn't strangle and hinder our individual search.
Journey-on, I tend to agree with you, more than maybe you realize.
I have no problem with people who think what they think; just so long as they do not demand that I think likewise.
The planetary issue appears to me to be, BEHAVIOR. How people treat each other, is the problem.
I love the Diversity of the Creation; and mental Diversity is just as precious as Physical and Environmental Diversity.
I wrote a book about living in a community in which Diversity was okay, because I believe it's okay.
I grew up in San Francisco; and where else are you going to learn about Diversity, bettern that?
She--
years (many decades) ago, most jws knew what their religion taught.
they could go toe to toe with a minister or priest and make some good points.. i believe today's witness knows little about most of the convoluted teachings and revisions of the "truth".
yesteryear's witnesses got a 9/10.
Terry, I weep for you and your experience. What a PROFOUND waste of your time.
In all that dogma, did you ever telepathically REACH Jehovah?
I just have to know.
and may you all have peace!

I don't have problems on facebook, not like that.
Different ones. And I try to just ignore them.
I put stuff up everywhere, here and there, so anybody can find it who wants to.
what do YOU do, Jeff?
