Public perception a problem for JWs
Monday, June 8, 2015|A Christian apologist says Christians should use discernment when dealing with Jehovah's Witnesses, who have recently launched a massive worldwide proselytization campaign.
Throughout this summer and continuing through January 2016, Jehovah's Witnesses are holding thousands of "Imitate Jesus!" conventions in 92 countries. The program, organized by the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses, is being presented in nearly 350 languages. According to a release, the gatherings promise three days of "fascinating presentations of Jesus' dynamic teachings, designed to help people of all ages and circumstances."
In line with this push to highlight Jesus, consider:
I am Jehovah. That is my name; I give my glory to no one else - Is. 42: 8 (NWT)
Jesus answered: “It is my Father who glorifies me, the one who you say is your God." - John 8:54 (NWT)
How can Jehovah glorify Jesus when he states emphatically that he gives glory to NO ONE else? Jesus answers, "I and my father are one."
Will this be one of those "fascinating presentations of Jesus dynamic teachings" that will be highlighted by the Watchtower?

Charity
by aintenoughwiskey inwe know the wt interpretation of matt 25:40 is support of the anointed.
since most of us here are no longer in that situation, what, if any forms of charity are you involved in?
sorry for the awkward framing of the question, it's not meant to imply atheists, or non-christians are not charitable!

When I formed a new company a few years ago, I found a small ministry to orphans in the Ukraine to support from the success of the business. The ministry builds additions onto houses and plugs kids into already functioning families, mostly local pastors. They take up to 10 kids per family. The state just warehouses the kids and turns them loose at age 16 or 17. Drugs and sex traffickng gobble up many of the orphans upon release. It also runs a nice bible school there.
It has been wonderful to see pictures of smiling kids and to get updates over the years.

Nice Prayer. IM me if you ever need to talk to a Christian with a JW background.
About prayer to Jesus:
1. Stephen prayed to Jesus just before meeting him.
2. Jesus said, "Come to me" all you that are heavy laden and I will give you rest.
3. The thief being executed next to Jesus asked him for life and it was granted
The New Testament form of Christianity is all about coming to Jesus
Whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

For clarity sake, this is a commentary about what the passages in Zechariah are actually about:
13:1-6 In the time mentioned at the close of the foregoing chapter, a fountain would be opened to the rulers and people of the Jews, in which to wash away their sins. Even the atoning blood of Christ, united with his sanctifying grace. It has hitherto been closed to the unbelieving nation of Israel; but when the Spirit of grace shall humble and soften their hearts, he will open it to them also. This fountain opened is the pierced side of Christ. We are all as an unclean thing. Behold a fountain opened for us to wash in, and streams flowing to us from that fountain. The blood of Christ, and God's pardoning mercy in that blood, made known in the new covenant, are a fountain always flowing, that never can be emptied. It is opened for all believers, who as the spiritual seed of Christ, are of the house of David, and, as living members of the church, are inhabitants of Jerusalem. Christ, by the power of his grace, takes away the dominion of sin, even of beloved sins. Those who are washed in the fountain opened, as they are justified, so they are sanctified. Souls are brought off from the world and the flesh, those two great idols, that they may cleave to God only.
JWS are not afraid of the teachings of other religions.
They have no fear of God either when he says that in hell it will simply not be possible to cease being conscious. We were created with the ability to enjoy God and his unfathomable goodness for eternity. God has put eternity in us.
the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night - Rev. 14: 11

I'm okay with the "fruitage of the spirit."
by cappytan inthough i now consider myself a secular buddhist, i just realized today that i'm okay with trying to pursue the qualities mentioned by paul as the "fruitage of the spirit.".
the only one i take issue with is "faith" in the context of religion.
what are your thoughts on the matter?.

I'm okay with trying to pursue the qualities mentioned by Paul as the "fruitage of the spirit."
Reminds me of James 3: 18
"Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace."

Hi Cappytan,
Back porch was covered, we grilled there. House got turned into a playground with 5 kids. It stopped raining long enough for a good long walk though.
My son and I built a rocket with a 2000 ft. capacity. Our plan was to shoot it off on Memorial Day. With a 500 foot cloud ceiling, we decided against.
We're still looking for a Landa Park re-do some Saturday with you all..... if it ever stops raining.

We have so many freedoms that those under tyranny do not have. I give a hearty bow to all those who gave their life so I could be free.
