PUNJABI ~~ FREE BIBLE Course

One-on-one / person-to-person; ~~ or ~~ more preferable, learn together as a Couple or Family. Individualized to suit your circumstances.

Study materials in Punjabi. Study materials are Free. Learn directly from the Bible. ~~ Approx 1 hour per week.

Who we are? ~~ We are part of a worldwide network of volunteers. Many have been involved in this kind of community work for decades. We are all involved in continual schooling, so as to stay up-to-date. (In the Greater Vancouver area, volunteers are available in the following languages: Punjabi, Korean, Chinese, & English. We will provide assistance in any language.)

Why we volunteer? ~~ This is our voluntary contribution to help bring improvement into the community. Many lives have been helped in positive ways already. You will enjoy our down-to-earth personality and manner of teaching. We are careful to avoid the unpleasant religiose appearance. You will find our humility refreshing & infectious.

Why a Personalized Course? ~~ The Bible is a message from the Creator to his Creation. It was meant to be understood by the common person, not just the Paid Clergy or scholars. ~~ Yet due to the enormous influence of religions and their agendas for self-existence, the simple truths in God’s Word, have been tainted. ~~ 2 Tim 4:3,4 states: “There is going to come a time when people won’t listen to the truth, but will go around looking for teachers who will tell them just what they want to hear. They won’t listen to what the Bible says, but will blithely follow their own misguided ideas.”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~~ Things you will learn:
How to develop a Personal Relationship w/ the Almighty Creator of the Universe?
Why is there so much trouble, pain & sorrow in the world? Can we expect God to intervene in human affairs? How? When?
What really happens at death?

Why does God permit wickedness to exist, when he has the power to stop it? He must have a good reason, because he is God. What is that reason? How will knowing that reason, affect your whole life differently?

What are the Moral Values Required by God for his intelligent creation? Why are they the best values?

You will learn how to tell the difference between ‘True’ Religion, and Religion that is not approved by God; without needing to debate doctrines.
Any other Bible Questions you have, will be answered, directly from the Bible, not from personal opinion.

~~ You will learn things, you never knew before, despite having paid into the religious systems for basic Bible education. You will finally fall in love with God's Word, like never before.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~~ Who would Benefit?

Do you have pre-teen Children, or a Teenager?
Are you a Parent, trying your best to raise your children w/ good moral values?

Do you know someone who is lonely, but has a love for God?
Do you know an older person, perhaps house-bound, bad eye-sight, who would appreciate someone reading from the Bible w/ them?

Are you struggling with marriage problems; health problems; suffering from depression; or other extremely stressful circumstances?

~~ or ~~ Are you dissatisfied, with the hypocritical situation within religion? Yet you still have a respect for God & Spiritual things.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
~~ Please e-mail us. It would be our pleasure to make arrangements for someone near you, to visit with you.

Remember: it’s FREE. No pressure; no ulterior motives; no subtle obligation. “The Truth” itself, from God’s Word, will “Set You Free” from so many enslaving and disheartening things.
~~ Thank you, and may your day be blessed.

Will love conquer all?

by LouiseAlly in

hi, my name is alison and i am having a very hard time to accept what is going on in my life.

hopefully anyone that can help me can certainly will receive much more from jehovah.. also i find by writing about my story can help other individuals going through the same thing can help make them to make wise decisions in life.... i am 21 years old and my ex boyfriend is 25 years old .

we were going out for one year and three months which is unfortunate it could not last longer.

orbison11

my four children do not talk to me because i do not want to be one of jehovah's witnesses anymore

sad, but that is just the beginning of the perils of being one of them

UK - 'No Cold Calling Zones' becoming prevalent + popular

by besty in

i've noticed a few press articles recently about the spread of these zones where door knockers are being clamped down on, mainly to prevent old ladies having their life savings taken off them by unscrupulous tradesmen.. the overall reaction has been very positive with local authorities reporting significant decreases in doorstep crimes.. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/article2289189.ece.

a poster on the above article wondered if he could start getting jw's arrested?

google 'jehovah no cold calling zone' and you can see the rest.. have any active jw's come across this in their area and how is it being handled?.

orbison11

yes, dobbie

i read that thread, funny thing, though

it was not meant to include jw's perse

yet they will run with the 'persecution' factor lol

wedding invitation revoked

by jeanne40love in

i have been associated with jw's since birth.

i raised my kids in the religion....thinking it was the only way.

recently, my daughter (who was baptized at 15 she is 24 now and has since stopped attending meetings, has been in a relationsip with a man and now has a newborn baby) was invited to a witness wedding and subsequently uninvited b/c she could possibly stumble the jw's who would be attending,since she has had a baby with a non witness and is not married.. .
