  Falling Away

  i understand that between 1970 and 1995, one-third of the jehovah's witnesses worldwide left the organization.

  the figure is 55% for those in the u.s.a.these figures would seem to mean that there are a lot of dissatisfied jw's!

  if you were to ask a jw's,why so many would want to leave if there is such a wonderful atmosphere of love among the witnesses, could they give you a good reason?

  Perhaps they will try to use the scriptures in matthew 24: 10 -12

  10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. 12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, (taken from NIV)

  Most left it - Right Date / Wrong Event

  http://www.adventist.org/history/

  between 1831 and 1844, william miller--a baptist preacher and former army captain in the war of 1812--launched the "great second advent awakening" which eventually spread throughout most of the christian world.

  based on his study of the prophecy of daniel 8:14, miller calculated that jesus would return to earth sometime between 1843 and 1844. others within the movement calculated a specific date of october 22, 1844. when jesus did not appear, miller's followers experienced what became to be called "the great disappointment.

  What's sex?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  imagine when the earthly resurrection will begin, and maybe 20 billion people who lived in the past will have a second chance to live eternally, but this time without sex (luke 20:35).

  having to live an eternal life without having the passion of love, and no sex whatsoever.

  how would you cope with this?
