Hi, Randy. Just a quick note wishing you and your father well. Yes, prayers on his behalf too. Just posted the following on the board which you may find of interest too. Some friends and I will be emailing it to people including those never JWs (Mt 28:19). Although "underground" exJWs are increasing active in promoting what we believe is superior to the cult of the Watchtower.
Hey there! Would you be interested in a free approximately ten page, emailed booklet explaining God's will and the Bible? If so, email me back. In summary it says God's kingdom will is for all persons of goodwill upon earth to enjoy His blessings including eternal life with Christ in heaven helping others upon earth being turned back to paradise beauty.
Bible Groups are composed of two or more friendly persons or relatives, and the groups stay independent, make their own local decisions, use the Bible itself (especially the words of Christ) via regular reading for their Teacher instead of any formal paid clergy or publications. Groups freely decide who among them are taking the lead in acting as servants by showing active loving kindness and may designate those as group servants or, if older adults with children, consider them as elders. Free Christians are much like moderate nondenominationalists or Baptists, differing for example from Adventistic groups (SDAs, the Witnesses etc) in not requiring tithes, imposing or misinterpreting scriptures regarding emergency blood usage, wrongly claiming that showing respect to governmental banners or flags is worship etc since we believe in unity from love rather than compelled uniforminity in all beliefs, often citing Romans 14:1-6 which grants this godly freedom.
We also offer logical answers for questions which sincere skeptics, from agnostics to atheists, have about the existence of God and the validity of the Bible. Becoming a Free Christian is as fast and simple as believing in what we have described here, meaning you are free to consider yourself one of us right now if interested whether you email back or not. You do not have to cease attending any other church or religious group you are attending, although some may and may consider this their only church affiliation. We close by encouraging and wishing peace upon earth for yourself and all other persons of goodwill striving after the kind of loving, helpful personality which we sincerely feel is best seen in the life of Christ.
By emailing back we can tell you more. Thanks for having given sincere consideration to this. [email protected]
