Need Christian help with John 3:17 & 5:22, 27
by Wayward Son in
1. watchtower
2. bible
on the surface these seem to contradict:.

john 3:17 - for god sent forth his son into the world, not for him to judge the world, but for the world to be saved through him.. .

5:22 - for the father judges no one at all, but he has committed all the judging to the son.... 5:27 - and he has given him authority to do judging, because son of man he is.. .

by TimothyT in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
since being disfellowshipped, i have gotten in touch with many gay jws and have listened to them and tried my best to help them in whatever ways i can.

its crazy because i see that i had it easy.

some of the pressure they have gone through is immense.
