Anybody see the July 1 2002 WT?
by Lieu inif anyone has read the study articles...exactly what did you think?
my take on the matter: all of the "great crowd of other sheep" are now being equated to the 'foreigners' of isaiah's prophesy.the 'gb' now thinks they are actually zion instead of being sons of zion which explains their thinking they are the "mother" and not the sons.but they are also the sons of zion....or earthly sons...but also zion...but wtf?if the gb are = to zion which is = to jah's woman, then they actually think they are = to jah...and are not the bride of christ (son) but have the audacity to think they could be the bride of jah (father).a reiteration of the 1919 stupid thing runs rampant throughout the article....can't we just stop with the dates fellas?!!
!they think they (gb) have been repurchased by jah .... not by christ and his blood who is supposed to be thier husbandly ownerthey try and rationalise why the congregational election of elders stopped...instead of telling the truth of why it stopped.. i have come to the conclusion that the gb does not acknowledge anything christ did, nor the fact that the 'annointed' are suposed to make up the 'bride of christ'.

Lieu, all satanic organizations deny Christ. From the Pharisees to modern day cults. It is no surprise. If you keep the people away from Jesus, you will keep them from salvation. Satan is a fool, but he aint stupid!

My B/F told me he's a J/W after months of dating!
by Funky_Diva_53_2000 inhi, i'm 17 and i've just recently become a member of this website and i want you to know what has happened to me over the past months.back in sep/oct 2001 i started chatting to a 20 year old bloke via the internet and we developed a great friendship over the net.we would talk online for ages,text and phone each other loads,we sent each other photos of ourselves and he would often put his webcam on for me to see.before i knew it he played a great part in my everyday life...and i spent so much time chatting to him that my college work suffered a lot & i wasn't doing my coursework (i eventually got told to leave as i hadn't done loads of the assignments and stuff & had fallen behind).
after about 6 months we arranged to meet up (i made sure my parents were at home coz i know it's dodgy to meet people from the internet).anyway,he came round my house one evening in march and we got along soo well...he lives quite locally too which was good.our friendship then grew into a relationship and we started dating and going out together,i was sooo happy and i fell for him in a massive way & he said he felt the same way too.to me,he was a girls dream come true...he was kind,caring,fit,good-looking & gentle and i loved him to bits!,i still do,and i thought we'd be together forever.
something that i did find a bit strange though was i hadn't met his family yet or heard my boyfriend talk much about them.i would question him about his family but he seemed to get a bit funny about it and when i mentioned about meeting his family he said something along the lines of ''they're a bit strange,you might not like them'' (or something like that anyway).that got me thinking and i though prehaps they lived in a run-down place or something,or they wern't very nice people and i thought my b/f could be ashamed to let me meet them.i thought to myself to give him time & he'll see that i'm an understanding & nice person and hoped that he would soon come out and tell me what the problem was (thinking it was about what i've just mentioned).

Hey Broken hearted, sorry you are getting slammed so hard. Take a break, do some research, and post when you can. I can sympathize with your situation, although never having been a witness. I want you to understand that God's requirement of you, i.e. Jehovah's provision, if that you go to His Son in repentance to have your sins forgiven and to be born again. It is not by adhering to some strict rules and doctrines (read Galatians), but rather by FAITH in JESUS. Once you are saved, then you will produce the works that God desires from us. The WT puts the cart before the horse.
Religion teaches (JW's included)
Faith + Works = Salvation......
Bible teaches
Faith = Salvation + works
You can do nothing to please God unless you are cleansed from sin and living by the Spirit. (Rom 8 :5-9).
You cannot please God by works friend, but by saving faith in Jesus.
I am praying for you :) Email me if you want to chat.

No, I haven't been "born again" as some have suggested. This has nothing to do with religion.
**he he** Like being born again has *anything* to do with religion.

Newbie experience.....
by zamzummim inwhat better way to join the board than jumping in with both feet?
(sorry if it's too long).
my experience is somewhat similar to the ones i've read here.

Hey Zam, welcome! Well, seeing as you will have to someday stand before God and give an account for your adulteries and other destructive behavior, how about turning to God and receiving His forgiveness through Christ? He is real, even though the WT is a lie, God is real and if He is good, He will judge mankind.You have discovered that religion is a dead end, and also that the 'world' is a dead end. There is a road that leads to LIFE, not only in the future, but NOW. I think you know what is right. I am praying that you choose the right thing.
Warm regards,
Penn
Every human being, but especially the adult, prefers to keep on believing what he already believes, and to accept ideas only when they reinforce the ideas he already has. He tends, in other words, to become less and less intellectually curious and to have more and more of a closed mind as he grows older. - Charles Adrian

My letter to the Governing Body
by Unclepenn1 indear brothers, in promulgating your esoteric cogitations or in articulating your superficial sentimentalities or amicable philosophical or psychological observations, beware of platitudinous ponderousity.
let your conversations and communications possess a clarified conciseness, a compact comprehensibleness, a collated, concatenated cogency.
eschew all conglomerations of flatulent garrulity, jejune babblement and asinine affectations.

OK, I have been dying to ask someone what the 'arm in a sling' thing is all about. Does it have to do with Silent Lambs? I wanted to ask, but never did. Farkel? Anyone?
