OK.
I think the N.E.Patriots are going to win.
Oh wait a minute,the Patriots aren't in it.
I guess I'll pick the Giants by 7.

But next year, the Patriots will be there.
Don't you all agree????

God Changing Chosen Peoples

my huband posed something to me yesterday that i had never even thought of before.

he said, wouldn't it be possible that if a group <ie.

jehovahs witnesses> fell out of gods favor, what would stop him from choosing another group?

Hi thinker,
That's a good question.
Why is it that people in general tend to be followers and rely on certain people to tell them what is right and wrong?
Could it be that it's easier for people to do that?
Could it be that some don't want to do the work of finding the "truth" for themselves so they rely on others to find it for them?
It is easier to blame someone else for mistakes even if we are the ones that blindly followed.

Hi mommy,
I like your analogy.
The bible is basically like a cook book.
It's been around for a long time and it has many translations.
And of course there have been many "chefs" down thru the years trying to tell us the proper way to interpret it.
How many changes have been made in the bible?
There's no way for us to know.
That's why I believe as time goes on and we get closer to the final stages of this system, God will let us all know without a doubt the real truth about Him and at that time, we will make a choice.
Just my thoughts.

Hi LeeHiker,
I know what you mean about H2O.
That's the first board I found when I started questioning the WTS.
I also learned a lot about the org. from there.
I have only been on there for a year.
Welcome to this board.
Lots of great folks.

Hi Cj,
I agree with what thinkers wife has said.
There are many strings attached to being a JW.
You must realize before tying the knot, that if he is strong in the JW faith your whole world will change.
Not only will you be marrying him, you will also be marrying the JW religion.
You may be in love at the moment, but if you aren't ready to become a JW, that love can turn into a nightmare.
Learn all you can about the WBTS.
There are many that have been thru what your thinking about doing.
I'm sure they'll be happy to give their advice.
