What part of the bible is most disturbing to you?

by crownboy in

jw
friends

for me, it's actually the book of job, which happens to be one of my favourite books.

the way job steadfastly maintains his innocence, and questions god, as well as rebuffs the three comforters (who proffer arguments along the lines of mordern apologist, although in this book they are "bad guys" ) made him my hero of sorts throughout most of the book.

if most people today questioned god the way he did, they would probably be condemned for it.

seek and you will find.

16 but may all who seek you .

13 you will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

I totally agree with truthseeker. Why is the Bible considered proof of anything?

can someone please tell me the beliefs of j w?

do they believe that jesus died on the cross and shed his blood for us?

do they believe that through jesus christ we shall be saved?

BTW, mouthy, have you not read my other posts? You claim that I

I know you consider that Jesus is a god-

I do not consider him a god, JW's recognize he's a god, just not the Almighty God. Do you understand what I'm saying?

Well with all this high IQ-I can understand why God chose the foolish things in the world to put the wise to shame

If this is meant to insult me you did not succeed. You have yet to put me to shame. You could possibly put JW's to shame but not me. If ever you want to debate with me over one of my beliefs and put me to shame bring it on; otherwise don't flatter yourself.

Well I'm glad you appreciate her reasoning John. . . ..

Anyway, I'm through with this thread. John, you can be angry with me or whatever. I actually don't care what JW's think. If you cleared up any misstatements I made then so be it. There's no point in arguing with you over it because I'm not a JW, and I don't even believe the way they do.

And this whole Jesus thing is pointless to me also because I doubt he was any more "godly" than you or I, and a book written so long ago won't make me believe otherwise.

BDgurl-

Yes, I have read the entire Bible. I've read portions of the King James Version but the language is sometimes difficult to understand. Besides that, I have read many times that King James majorly altered it to fit his own beliefs and agendas, so it loses credibility in my mind for that reason. But really, if in fact there is a God like the one the Bible speaks of and he actually inspired the Bible, then I don't think it really matters which one a person uses.

Right now I only own the JW version called the New World Translation but I in no way endorse it.

John-

First of all, it's "whether" not "weather".

Second, I only addressed your writing style because you insulted my intelligence, which was very rude and unnecessary.

Third, if I answered a question about JW's like a JW would then so what? If someone answered a question on my behalf, I'd want them to answer the way I would, wouldn't you?

the way you present it sounds like the way jw's lie at your door step

Did I lie like a JW would? If so how, because I did not mean to. I only tried to gives their views the way they would.

he made some good points, the wt does twist the bible. that was his whole thinking.. you took it somewhere else... to me that sounds like wt thinking

Yes s/he made good points. I agree that the Watchtower lies, so what's your point?

John my dear-

I do not believe as the JW's do. Anything I've said about them is not my feelings. Actually I am very smart, I'd tell you my IQ if you'd like. Besides try accusing me of not being too smart while using better sentence structure and punctuation. But that is beside the point. If you read any of my posts you will see that I loathe JWs, I was merely telling mouthy and daddysgurl some of their beliefs. So get off my back and get your facts straight.

BDgurl-

I agree with this statement:

I try to live a good life everyday. I believe that some people do back slide. I feel that we need to ask for forgiveness everyday. There is only one perfect person and that is Jesus. That is why we need to try to live like him. No cussing, no lying, no being ugly to others. We need to try our best to walk and talk like Jesus each and everyday.

I too try to live a good life. I don't cuss, I try not to lie, and I help others in need. Unfortunately, I am unsure about God's existence therefore according to most Christians (such as yourself), this isn't good enough, I'm going to Hell. I apparently have to "confess my sins" and believe Jesus died for us. I believe a man named Jesus once lived; a very charasmatic man whom a religion sprung forth from, but a holy man? God? I doubt these things. What of the people who lived before Jesus, did they go to heaven?

I just don't see how a loving God would punish someone for eternity that led a good life and helped people just because he was Hindu, or Muslim.

I think telling people about Jesus' love is fine. I think telling people about Gandhi's love is fine. I think telling people about Muhammad's love is fine.

Mouthy-

I was just wondering, how long has it been since you went to meeting regularly?
