  Discussion with a Pioneer

  two weeks ago i had an opportunity to meet up with a pioneer whom a friend had accepted a "bible study" from.

  my christian friend invited me to come along as support, so my plan was to sit back and listen for the most part.

  well, that was the idea anyways.

  so i decided yesterday to give my wife's full disclosure.

  not sure it was the best decision considering she holds very firmly to the resurrection hope so we can see our babies again.. anyways she is agreeable to begin a study to find a better truth.

  where is a good place to go to get some good reliable biblical info on the web that we can consider together?.

  NIV is good. I have been using that and sometimes WEB. When I first started reading the bible myself I took my husband's advice and started at John. Which is a pretty good place to start if you were brought up JW,

  "John 1:1New International Version (NIV)
  The Word Became Flesh1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."

  
  If you want to test the waters with bibles maybe check out, https://www.biblegateway.com/ that way you can see what you like best before committing to buying a new bible.

  It's been three years since I learned ttatt but I have been out seventeen years. Somehow it never occurred to me to Google Jehovah's Witnesses until after I heard Fritz Springmeir mention that they are a cult in passing. I was really upset at first and then off and on angry and recently really pissed off because of the Australian Commission. I have a jw living on my street I think he's an elder, anyway he's been shunning me for three years now, ever since I started anti witnessing. It's really a shame, for him, because his yard has the most darling deer statues out front and my kid likes skipping on the stones in front of his house and likes to stop and look at his deer and discuss them. I can only imagine my behavior must be terrifying to him.

  Ohhhh the terrifying apostate and her toddler are out plotting on ways to stumble him. Look she's out giving Christmas gifts to everyone in the Culdesac.....

  @millie210 - thanks, I dunno how smart I was at 15 if I still refused a blood transfusion at 17. But I'm 35 now and happier and hopefully smarter too.

  @half banana - yes, oh the joy of not being a jw! Or as kids in school used to say, "you a Jehovah?" No, gladly not.
