144,000 and Rulership
by artful inwhile investigating the wts concept of "two classes of christians" - the first being a heavenly ruling class made up of the 144,000, and the second an earthly subject class - i decided to investigate the basic wts premise that all of the 144,000 are to be "rulers with christ".
those who would rule with christ - the "first resurrection".
although it could be theorized that if paul said that the "saints" or "holy ones" are to judge the world, and these are part of the "firstfruits" then the some of the 144,000 may be ruling with christ.

Ya-Drone said;
A person looking for a fault is not looking for the truth, and so will not find the truth.
That's why many 'hovahs and 'hovah wannabees like yourself can't seem to see that the WTS is full of crap. They can't conceive of the idea that the bible or the WTS might be wrong.

JWS NOT FREE TO FALL IN LOVE
by heyfea inyou know how the society pushes every one to do more, and more, and more....and those who don't do more without a super valid reason (like you're in a coma), are considered not "spiritual", right?
ok, they also tell single brothers and sisters who are pioneers or bethelites that they should only consider marrying those with the same spiritual goals....in other words....choose some one who "loves" jehovah just as much, meaning one who preaches 120 hours a month or works in bethel,etc.....right?
....well i think it is so unfair.. it's already bad enough that we cannot look at another human being from the opposite sex because they are not witnesses (never mind that they are excellent human beings, ones that would ashame many jws)....we also have to keep from falling in love with a pioneer or bethelite (if you are not one, because he or she will not give you the time of day) or from falling in love with a mere publisher ( if you are a pioneer , because the elders will suggest to let it go, and they will try and try until you give it up)( i've witnessed a huge case...that ended in a bethelite and a pioneer dying, litterally) isn't that appaling?

Do you still expect to live eternally?
by JH insince leaving the watchtower, do you still believe that you will live forever, here on earth?
some might think that heaven is the final destiny, while other may just believe in this short life and nothing else.
what is your belief and how does it affect your daily life?

TR
Do you still expect to live eternally?
Well, no, I guess. At least in the context of WT teachings. As far as going to heaven, ie, "christendoms" teachings, I really don't expect that either.
I am at the point where I really don't believe that the bible is an authentic source of "God's" thoughts. To me, the bible has proved to be a re-telling of far more ancient stories. Maybe there is a "God", and he'll do whatever he wants, and it might have nothing to do with any writings we earthlings have.

a copy of his most recent attack is below my short response.

Rev,
slander the name of Abuse Survivors he claims to protect and serve.
How was this done?
Man, this is confusing. Anxiously awaiting your response to Bill's letter about how you lied.

Excellent, JT.
What sinks Yadrift's ass is this:
He does not advocate or insist on personal opinions or harbor private ideas when it comes to Bible understanding.
Now, dear ya-adrift, please tell me that you have not informed the bros about your "private ideas", and that's why you are not df'd.
