Searcher- Right NOW on the we cam, a bird hatched and the mother
stood up and stretched her wings and started to feed the two chicks
with some fish she has in the huge nest she built. What an amazing thing to
see this as it happens in real time, thank you for this, its wonderful.

I am always facinated they way birds weave such intricate nests.
I live in a high rise and I have a big window that looks out on trees
where birds nest. They fly to the top of buildings nearby and I
see them everyday swooping and soaring in the air and stopping to
rest on my balcony railing. There are Canada geese, robins,
and various species. I wish I was more knowledgeable about
the varieties I see, becuase I love them all.
an acquaintance in canada is making a serious attempt at ending children being forced, or coerced, to attend a judicial meeting.. are there any here who had to attend such a meeting, and would be willing to contribute their feelings?.
likewise, any who were baptized as minors, but felt later that at the time of their baptism, they were not old enough to have made that decision..
Legal cases are not based on feelings, they are based on statutes
and code. I believe putting any child through the terrifying experience of
being judged by adult males sitting in a room alone with them is
child abuse and emotional abuse of the worst sort.
Its also emotional abuse to keep the child isolated from participating
in a normal social life at school, or discouraging by guilt, any aspirations
they might have to go on to college and choose a career path.
Its a cult.
hi, iam not jehova witness could you help me about bible study?.
hamzasinan06 - skype id.
thanks.
What is your first, native, language ? I sense it is not English.
Where are you ? If you are in North America or any place that has free
libraries go to the library and ask the librarian where the Bibles are.
Get one in your language of birth. Read the New Testament.
Starting with Matthew Mark Luke and John then read James and Romans.
Just read it and think about it. The JW's will not really study the Bible with you
they will study a WatchTower Book that will teach you their doctrines.
They will tell you that eight men in New York City are the sole channel of communication
between mankind and God and that you must do as those men tell you to.
If you disobey they will cast you out and refuse to speak to you.
They will lie to you that this is true to get you to become a Jehovah's Witness.
You will have to pledge to pay money every month to the men in New York.
But at first they will be very nice to you, to lure you in.
telling innocent people they can live forever when armegeddons never coming.
telling people they can see their loved ones again.
telling people to sacrafice their goals and dreams in life.
WHO is anointed ???
1 John 2:20, But you have been anointed by the Holy One,
and you all have knowledge.
ALL are anointed, all have access to Jesus Christ directly
no eight men in New York required, Jesus is the only mediator
between man and God, that is what the Bible says, everything else
is cult-speak, a WT invented false doctrine.
Paul speaking to all Christians :
2 Corinthians 1:21-22
21 And it is God who establishes us with you in Christ, and has anointed us,
22 and who has also put his seal on us and given us his Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.
Witnesses need to get over the idea they are excluded as individuals from being
anointed. This is another way the WT distances people from Christ, like telling them
they are not worthy to partake at the Memorial because its only for a "select group",
that is a false, evil, doctrine that is anti-Christ.
telling innocent people they can live forever when armegeddons never coming.
telling people they can see their loved ones again.
telling people to sacrafice their goals and dreams in life.
Anointed simple means bathed in or something being poured over you
and the term was used at Pentecost when the holy spirit cause people to
speak in various languages, and there are scriptures that say God will pour out
his spirit on you, thats everybody. The concept the WT planted in your head
of a special group being "of the anointed" does not exist is the Bible at all.
You are baptized in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Having holy spirit is the common experience of all believers in the Bible, not
a special class set apart. When you feel blessed or close to God or inspired
by love and grace you are being anointed. Holy spirit is poured out on mankind
and its not something you can aspire to, its a free gift, Grace, a free gift for all.
How do the so-called "anointed" governing body explain this ???
Acts 2.17-18
“In the last days it will be, God declares,
that I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh, (anoint)
and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
and your young men shall see visions,
and your old men shall dream dreams.
Even upon my slaves, both men and women,
in those days I will pour out my Spirit;
and they shall prophesy.
it was easy to figure people out.
as long as you got out in service and put money in the money box people will pretend to be your "friend".. but let's be honest is most of business associates.
they are your friends as long as you are active doing the watchtower bidding.. and then let's talk about the lack of hot women.
Gee guys do you think its the fact witnesses men expect to marry "hot" women
when they themselves may be, shall we say, less than hot ?
I had guys approach me back in the day who were poor, had no education, and
dressed in frayed shirts and garish ties and god knows where they got their suits,
and under the suit was a little skinny guy, with bad teeth and worse breath, and
who was thinking he was only going to have the prettiest freshest young girl in the
congregation and then she would be "submissive" to him and he would be her "boss" and
she would stay at home and wait on him. Think. Who are you? What do you have to
offer? Do you work out and keep fit and in shape ? Or do you only expect her to be fit ?
Do you have anything interesting to say ? Any skills ? Any solid career ? Hows your credit rating ?
Can you communicate? Are you considerate ? Generous ? Have any social skills ?
Do you treat women as equals ? Women can survive on their own, they don't need you,
they marry because they see something in you they can't live without.
well there you have it folks.
they have passed around pieces of paper for each publisher to write.
down how much they are willing to give the society every month for their entire lives!.
Anonymous ?? They don't give out TAX forms so you can claim donations
as tax deductible ??? Even the Catholic Church will help you with that.
If this does not cause a mass exodus then these KH goers are are all brain dead.
i just saw my first watchtower magazine in about 15 years...it was tucked under my doormat.
all i can say is wow!
i was shocked at how small and flimsy it was.
St George of England - Seriously ? They have a dumbed down version of
the dumbed down version ? Since they are focusing on third world countries
this shows their complete lack of respect for non-white people and people in general.
Also evidenced by calling themselves "glorious ones", who can endure this nonsense ?
littlerockguy - I was thinking the same thing - Babylone the Great - a very complicated
book involving convuluted prophesies and history and all sorts of calculations, nonsense,
but at least it was high level nonsense.
to make a pledge of any kind is to declare war against nature;.
for a pledge is a chain that is always clanking and reminding the wearer of it.
that he is not a free man.. .
Proverbs 22:26 Do not be one who shakes hands in pledge or puts up security for debts.
(1) Abraham never tithed on his own personal property or livestock.
(2) Jacob wouldn’t tithe until God blessed him first.
(3) Only Levite priests could collect tithes, and there are no Levite priests today.
(4) Only food products from the land were tithable.
(5) Money was never a tithable commodity.
(6) Christian converts were never asked to tithe anything to the Church.
(7) Tithing in the Church first appears centuries after completion of the Bible.
A majority of evangelical leaders believe that the Bible does not require
Christians to tithe, according to a survey released by the National Association of Evangelicals
