Strike 3 for the elderette and me! (???) I never heard a JW talk SO much about Jesus!

by Faithful Witness in

miss k and her friend miss w arrived promptly today.

our scheduled topic of discussion: jesus' claim to be "the way, the truth and the life..." john 14:6 since she was basing this topic choice on the fact that i had quoted that verse, i'm not sure why... she spent what seemed like a very long time, hopping through scriptures that all said that jesus was the truth, the way, or the life.

ok, so we agreed... i kept waiting for her to get to a point, or sway from this principle.. of course, she summed up with scriptures that show how jesus submits to the father, and what does that mean we should do?

So my mom called me out on Facebook today

my dad posts the daily text on facebook everyday.

today's text had to do with disfellowshipping and this is what my mom commented on it:.

mom: i have a daughter also who is baptized but not disfellowshipped but doesn't want to learn about jehovah i pray that she see's soon before jehovah closes the door!.

I wanted to respond with a "ditto" but took the peacemaker route instead. It's not the first time she's called me satan. She has said I worship the devil and once she said that Satan probably answered my prayer. So, once she played the satan card, I knew I had to bow out before I got too upset. We left it on good terms.

Making known God's "name" isn't literal. I think it is more about making known who he is!

Those are great points. She ended up quoting 2 Cor 11:14-16 where it says that Satan can disguise himself as an angel of light. This was after I told her that all of her "points" made me realize I was a true christian. After she basically said I was satan, I just told her that I am encouraged and that I spoke from the heart and that we should continue to grow spiritually as we do everything to the glory of Jehovah and trust in Jesus works for salvation and to have a great week! Then we "smiled" at each other. She's blind.

Have anyone ask their JW family member to research "Signs of a Cult"???

of a cult and compare that to jw organization, there is no doubt.. they score very high on that list.. if there is a satan and i said "if".

Unfortunately, all that talk I did from the heart and she just cut and pasted something from a watchtower or something. Really disappointing!
