i just had to share something i found fascinating and faith building.
i know it's not specifically related to the topic of this forum but i think it would be useful to anyone lacking faith in a spirit world and a god such as those who have been stumbled by false religion.. i do not personally believe that the existence of complex life provides evidence of a creator as evolutionists have done a very good job at explaining how life has evolved into the complex forms that exist today.. so instead ive looked to the supernatural to provide me with evidence of a spirit world.
if i can prove to myself that a spirit world exists, this would provide sufficient evidence for the existence of a god, since it is reasonable to assume that one cannot exist without the other.. without dabbling in the occult myself i have carried out research into the paranormal and i am always keen to watch documentarys that provide convincing evidence and credible eye witness testimony.. one such documentary which was aired on tv can now be watched on youtube.
'If I can prove to myself that a spirit world exists, this would provide sufficient evidence for the existence of a God, since it is reasonable to assume that one cannot exist without the other.'
Seems to me that it would only prove that spirit world exists.

i realise now that all true christians that believe in christ and get baptized are anointed with holy spirit, making me one of the anointed.
i also believe the symbolic number of 144k are the first-fruits that will be pick by yehovah but no distinction until then (romans chapter 3).
so since there's a scripture in 1john i think that says the anointed will not need to be taught by others and will have understanding, i'm thinking of telling the elders 'do to the fact that i'm now anointed i no longer need to go to their meetings.
Its a logical thought. However, there would likely be repercussions. Then, there is your situation w your wife to give a thought to. Anyhow, keep thinking about things.

i called an old friend of mine the other day who is an ex-jws and now a devout born again christian.
i was just calling him to say hello because it has been about a year since we last talked and before i could say "hi carl" every other word was "jesus"" jesus" "jesus" "jesus".
i could not get in a word edge wise without him blasting me with "jesus this" and "jesus that".
' I noticed ex-jws that convert to "born agains" are the worst. '
I was w the born again pentles for 2 yrs, right after exiting the wt. Going by my experience there, i would say that they feel that now, FINALLY, they have found the true christianity. The born again pentacostals are the closest to christianity as its described in acts.
I wasn't like your 'friend', i use that term loosely, though. Its too bad that they can't settle down.

i prayed that 2 japanese men would come to church today, and thank god that 1 said yes so far.............so please pray he and his friend would come not only to church, but to jesus.
and i meet another non christian friend on monday, please pray for her salvation.. .
when asked which is the greatest commandment, jesus replied,.
'The anger and intolerance '
'so angry and empty inside the only way to appease the angst is to lash out at others, like dogs and pigs?'
The insults add up. From the hearts abundence, the mouth speaks.

Matt 7:6 - Wholly
"Do not give dogs what is holy, and do not throw your pearls before pigs"
Typical christian arrogance.'
Yes, but don't forget the ♥.
