  Question for this forum???

  by spectromize in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  how many here still believe the organization is ahead of any other religion as far as teaching truth from the bible despite some of the wrong teachings that we perhaps have???.

  i will be the first to answer in saying, i still believe we are ahead of any other religion for the present but it can change.

  only time will tell wether the organization wants to adjust to some of their mistaken chronology and teachings.

  The Holy Spirit

  okay, i'm interested in what everybody thinks on this.

  i believe that for the most parts all religions start off with a good motive, i.e., to provide a forum that will help people to serve god.

  (basically).

  Women's lust for a power man but not always????

  by spectromize in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  one of the things that impresses me most about the bible is the bible book of the song of solomon.. it has always been my experience as a man to know that women are attracted to powerful and influential men according to their domain.. .

  let me explain, being in the organization ,single sisters are often admonished to make their prize catch an elder or ministerial servant if they are considering marriage.. well unfortunately i have to disagree with that kind of thinking as i have come across outstanding brothers who reflect god's spirit to a great extent without them being appointed in the cong.

  as ms or elder.. when looking at the world in general, we see that to a great extent the wordly spirit, as regards our topic of discussion, that beautiful women go for so called highly placed ones in society such as lawyer's, doctor's, or business men...or the affluent.... one of the big mistakes being made here is, true love is often left out for the material advantages to the detriment of some marriages.

  What's Sacred, what's not?

  by Frenchy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  let's put forth a question here that should provoke some interesting responses.

  please feel free to give your thoughts on the matter inasmuch as that is the purpose of these boards.

  we (jehovah's witnesses) do not accept blood transfusions on the principle that 'blood is sacred'.

  JW and XJW DB's , Bible Conscience and Truth.

  by spectromize in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i would just like to point out that when i first bought my computer and connected to the internet, the first words i typed in my browser were jehovah, jehovah's witnesses, watchtower.... i must say, i was quite amazed to see so many websites that were for and against us.

  my curiosity got the better of me and started reading sites such as watchtower.org ,witnesses.net,watchtower observer, h20, freeminds...ect.. did it bother me to read opposing materials or websites?

  as i mentioned in another thread i have spent many years training myself a conscience trained to what the bible and the society's publication have encouraged us to do.. again coming back to the question, did it bother me reading all this opposing stuff?

  What is truth?

  by spectromize in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  ah!

  yes, that remark made by pilate after pilate had asked jesus wether he was a king.

  ( john 18:37-38 ).. how would you answer the question according to what we know from the bibles definition, and how the faithful and discreet slave have endeavored to give us spiritual food at the proper time?.
