have you received the same thing on your door?

Thanks, NeverKnew
You said:
It was explained to me that Satans rulership began in 1914. The world just didn't notice.
They told me that Jesus was enthroned in 1914... The plot thickens.
The last chapter of Matthew says that Jesus was given authority in heaven and on earth from that point in time. That sounds like enthronement to me.

I love the way they quote the Scripture about "the whole world being under the control of the wicked one [Satan]" and then add, "except for us".
Have they read Daniel chapter 4? It says that God rules. It makes me wonder who is their God.
today my wife showed me the new medical directive and power of attorney form she got at the meeting.
surprisingly she asked if i wanted to fill mine!
i have been inactive for 6 years and i don't go close to any jw gatherings because i don't want friends who only care for me unless i share their beliefs.

i'm thinking of printing a tract with some simple but thought-provoking questions for people to use when jw's come to their doors.
questions from christians.
bible-believing christians appreciate the moral values of jehovah’s witnesses in their communities but have several questions that somehow seem to escape us when we are caught unexpectedly at our doors.
Thanks for this, Perry. I am always looking for questions to ask the JW's who come to my door.
I also have a question:
Jesus said that we were to take the bread and wine in memory of him until he returns.
If he returned in 1914, then why do some JW's still take the bread and wine now?
If he did not return, then when and how will he return to stop the need for remembering?
this is a story of two jw couples, brother jerk and his wife sister pleasant, brother easy going.
the ocean.. sister pleasant: wife!
brother jerk.
Marriage is dissolved on death. Romans 7 v 3.
why murder 8 billion non-believers to just turn around and resurrect 20 billion other non-believers?

Very good point, xjwsrock.
Where do they get all this from anyway?
Armageddon means 'the mount of Megiddo', and is a place in Israel.
It is only mentioned once in the Bible, and in Revelation.. which is a very strange book.
The rulers of the earth are gathered together there for the battle, then there are plagues and a lot of hail.
Where do they get the idea that there will be a lot of people lying around dead all over the world?
yesterday, here in santiago, chile, some stupid ***** yerk tried to kill himself by entering naked to the lions cage in broad day light and while the zoo was filled with people!...
sad part is the zoo personnel had to shoot dead the lions (male and female, 22 years old)... because waiting for the tranquilizers to take effect would be the sarah of the man.... at first everyone thought it was a suicide attempt, but later they found in his garments some kind of letter stating that armageddon had come and that he is daniel the prophet and god would save him... and he signed the letter as "jesus christ".

Sad about the lions, but that poor man was ill.. and he has a mother who will be very sad just now.
i've been using the forum to vent and post a lot more frequently lately as a venting purpose & way to obtain peace of mind with the craziness i've been going through recently as i fade away form the org.
anyways today i'm sitting here at work and thinking to myself about demons... ok i know this sounds crazy but has anyone else out there been traumatized by the thought of demons?
i had a dream the other night, just flat out spooky and i woke and couldn't help but feeling it may have been evil ole' satan and his demons at it again.. i don't want to believe that, (trying not to, & just brushing it under the rug so to speak) but have any of you out there been talked up about demons?
I think fear of 'demons' and 'things that go bump in the night' has to do with the active imagination of a child, which most of us eventually grow out of.
As a little child I was terrified of flushing the toilet at night as it makes such a noise and I thought that some unknown 'thing' would hear and get me. I felt I was safe in bed, so if I did flush I would run and jump into bed as quickly as I could. I didn't know what the 'thing' was and grew out of it eventually.
I also was afraid that daleks would get me and combatted this fear by realising that they move around on wheels and so could not get up stairs. Once again, I was safe in bed!
i wonder what it would be like, without any religion in the world?
i don't think it would be like 'imagine' by lennon.. i don't believe it will ever happen.
even if it did, people are the same.
I don't think it would be any different. People would still find a reason to hurt others.
A religion that believed in kindness and honesty would be a lot better.
during co visit, i took him for a bible study i was conducting.
during the session, the householder said he believed satan was not a person, but personification of evil within us.
i left co to handle householder’s doubt.
It would be very unfair of God to blame mankind for all the evil in the world if it were caused by a superhuman entity to whom God had given the power.
Also, why did Jesus compare himself with the serpent on the pole?
John 3 v 14 and as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
Think about it.
