Just a thought that occurred to me and I could be wrong and feel free to correct me if I am but doesn`t the word "window" imply that it has a pane of glass in it ?

Did they have glass windows in Jesus day ? did Eutychus crash through it ?or was it an open window ?

Try this on a JW

by Saltheart Foamfollower in

this is not intended to expose wrong teachings etc, just to promote thinking and asking questions.. 1) ask if imperfection and death automatically follow sin.

jw will answer yes.. 2) ask if satan is imperfect then.. 3) sit back and watch them try to work out what the right answer should be.. sf.

However dofp Satan is never destined to die a natural death after another thousand years of JC rule he is to be let out and mislead as many as he can before Jehovah God throws him into the lake of fire where he will be tormented day and night for ever and ever .Rev.20:7-10

So according to that scripture Satan doesn`t die at all. Ever

Has the Governing Body EVER apologized for anything?

by Wild_Thing in

jw
friends

geoffrey jackson testified to the arc that the governing body has apologized for things in the past, so an apology to sexual abuse victims is "perceivable".

what has the governing body ever apologized for?.

22 q. just on that point, mr jackson, has the governing body23 considered apologising to survivors of child sexual abuse24 at the hands of elders within the organisation?25 a. i haven't been in any discussions with regard to that.26 27 q. is that something that you foresee might happen ‐ in 28 other words, that an apology at least be considered?29 a. the governing body has apologised on other matters, so30 for me to say ‐ i can't speak collectively for everybody, 31 but we have apologised on things in the past, in other32 areas, so it is perceivable.. .

"What will the 1970`s bring"

"Stay alive till 1975"

" 1975 is 6000 years since Adams Creation an appropriate time for Christ Jesus Rule to begin"

"Indications are that Gods kingdom Rule by Christ Jesus will begin before the end of the Twentieth Century "

I think the Russian Govt. can see through this ploy and will nip it in the bud.

I can`t see the JW`s pulling the wool over the Russian Govts.eyes

'The videos are helping the young people.'

by Magnum in

some time ago a super-dub stopped by to try to encourage me to return to jw land.

my demeanor during our conversation was extremely serious.

i was polite, but dignified.

smiddy3

I would have liked it if you had challenged him on that statement Magnum and got his response .

“But you know what? They’re helping the young people.”

though it` easy for me to say so in hindsight

Anyone watching Star Trek Discovery?

by Coded Logic in

so i've been watching the show and really enjoying it.

great to see a trek tv series finally get a reasonable budget.

beautiful costumes, sets, cinematography, action pieces, etc.. really my only complaints are how cg all the ships look and there's a fair bit of stiff dialog from time to time.. what do you guys think of the show?.

smiddy3

I have seen one or two episodes will have to watch a few more to see how it goes from there.

Hey Dio.. if I was around 3 centuries from now I`d be still singing and dancing to the bee Gees

Sign of apostasy

by Ireneus in

elders arranged a sort of informal visit by a more capable elder accompanied by another brother who is more qualified than me from academic background.

their purpose was to reason with me as a last resort to avoid a jc.. during the two-hour discussion, i could make my point clear to them: “i don’t think any one particular religion has the whole truth.

it may be existing as bits and piece in all religions and schools of thought.

smiddy3

Before they DF you , why not beat them to the gun and DF them by DA yourself from the religion of JW`s for their apostasy.

After all they claim they were appointed in 1919? as the F&DS by what they were teaching then right ?

Well their is nothing that they teach now that resembles what they were teaching in 1919 and if you did start spruiking what they taught in 1919 you would be DF`d

Just a thought Ireneus

Best of luck to you
