  Since 24 years away. Only the elder elders remember me. And they only know whether they excommunictaed me or if i left myself.
  Sometimes I even dont remember exactly. But I think it was so. I didnt go to the meetings anymore because I was disappointed, perhaps disillusioned or depressed. Then I met a girl, my first love, she was from another country, i invited her to come visit me. So lately after asking a sister, where she could live, I decided that she should live with me, but we didnt have sex, only after marriage. But in the meantime I was excommunicated.

  i've always wondered that.

  recently i asked that question on another thread and didn't really get ananswer.

  cofty made an excellent point that we often hear what it isn't, but that really isn't useful.. so, what is it?

  Hi, sorry cant find time to write my entry. Made already about 30 notes, they are laying around in my loft everywhere between pages of encyclopedias,
  bibles, books.

  Joke: Anyway whe should be aware of the bad spirit that survive in magical toys like the warrior wizard and we should findn out if a bad spirit exits and how to identify it.

  It was always my hope to that the spirit of God opens the hearts of people, when I was in the field services. Why should it not be so in reality. To believe in a divine spirit without allowing him to do this would be not logical.

  1.The spirit is unlimited and thus the christian church has to be unlimited, open for all.

  2. God does not hold back his spirit for those who do not know Jesus Christ or the Bible, as the bible shows God is working in each human being and in all religions.

  3. At the moment of accepting Jesus, by entering into the church community, you come into a closer relationship than all other people have with the spirit.
  To the church Jesus has a special relationship. All christians form one "body"like entity, each member is a "limb" of that body. Thus from this time onwards the spirit makes you the gift of a new life.

  4. Jesus said that you than become beloved by him like a bride is loved by the bridgegroom. But like in a marriage you must allows try to speak with each other and intensify that intimate love.

  5. Holy spirit is asssiting us on our way of faith. We will only feel and understand the spirit, the new life, if we begin to walk on this way, cause faith and love you can only experience by doing not by thinking about, its a matter of heart, a loving type of spirituality of walking hand in hand, a marriage.

  6 But all other human on earth which are not in the marriage between Christ and Church are blessed by the benefits of the church. The whole creation
  is waiting for the revelation of the sons of god. These sons of god are those who lead a spirit-full life and thus are a blessing for others.

  Greetings.

  Broad and Spacious Road to Destruction, or Narrow Gate to Life??

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  so we all know of the parable / illustration at matt 7:13.

  "go in through the narrow gate, because broad and spacious is the road leading off into destruction, and many are the ones finding it, or going in through it".

  here is a brain snapping thought that hit me!:.

  Watchtower Really Does Totally Take The Position of Jesus

  by OnTheWayOut in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  watchtower has said that jesus is not the mediator of anyone but for the anointed.

  then they tell you that they are jehovah's organization and that the flock should obey them.. basically, the watchtower corp. and it's governing body is taking the place of jesus as the mediator for people.

  christianity, even by it's name, focuses on making jesus known.

  What is the acutal teaching of Watchtower about the mission of Jesus as mediator?
  
  - Stage 1: God to Jesus: "Start the mission now, be my word and get flesh!"
  - Stage 2: "Achieve your duty, become a ransom sacrifice and bring me the value of your blood into heaven,
  so that I can accept it an be reconciled with, ya ....of course, only... the anointed remnant "
  - Stage 3: "Yes be attentive my son: this mission is only for some anointed, the other people my son
  you have to save otherwise, any ideas?"
  - Stage 4: "Yes okay the remnant shall give information to all mankind and then I will be reconciled with all men on earth.
  So we can do it and accomplish my will.

  - Stage 5: End of mission will be if you do all what I say to you and the remnant
  and you sit on the thron on my right side.
  That will be fine then. What are you waiting for, Jesus?"
