1994 Awake Cover RE: Children Dying NO BLOOD

by cha ching in

we came across this youtube video, from a year ago... i thought this guy did a great job!.

i have been trying to find a way to approach this subject with relatives.

after you watch this, let me know: .

Crazyguy

Good points like his use of the awake. a bit long. His use of the Bible was good as well since that's what is needed when talking to jdubs. I would add mark 7:18 where Jesus says nothing taken into the body can defile one.

Also from a medical fact, every drop of human breast milk has about 1 million white blood cells. This proves that the Bible writers we're telling people to pour out the blood of the animal they killed as a sign of respect for the life they took not because God wanted people not to eat blood. In fact the chapter 17 of the book of Leviticus makes this perfectly clear, but hey when does a jw read a whole chapter.

Untrusted

by Esmeralda001 in

greetings,it seems that jw immediately assume that all "wordly" people (as they like to call it) are immoral and unworthy of their trust.

i sort of understand how it can be dangerous for a christian to have association with someone who doesn't share their values, but don't you think that some members take the conceal lied in corinthians 15:33 to the extreme?

what about romans 2:14?

Crazyguy

If you wish to be a Christian go to a non denominational church. You'll find more love more caring for the community and less bs like this.

one of the businesses i cover is owned by jws and the father and 2 sons knew me as an active brother until 3 years ago when i told one of them i no longer attend the meeting.

today the father and one of the sons asked me if i was still inactive.

i told them it has been more than 5 years since i last been at a meeting.

So if it's all about the preaching, ask them why all the paid special pioneers are being let go but they have no problem spending money on real estate investments .

Noah's ark

by dothemath in

for those that believe in the flood story as genesis says, then they also are forced to accept a huge amount of evolution, way faster than any evolutionist would propose.. from a basic selection of "kinds", to the several millions of land species there are now, and in only about 4000 years.. not to mention the many types of birds that made it to remote islands, and then somehow lost their ability to fly... not even possessing wings( ex- dodo bird, moa).

scientists agree this was a process that took eons of time.. i was thinking of this because we just had a public talk on noah.

i sure couldn't make a fool of myself on that subject, going on how "factual" it all is..

Crazyguy

Just thought of this flaw in the story. As we know most water is salt water. After the flood one would expect all fresh water lakes and ponds to be filled with salt water. So how long does it take to filter out salt naturally and how many lakes would possibly never be filtered and remain saltwater lakes? How many animals would die for lack of fresh water since all lakes were saltwater for a time.

Our fade-gossip-elders calling

by All for show in

jw
friends

looking back we had been fading without even realizing it.

life happened...and we weren't regular.

then we woke up and have actively been fading for 9 months.

Crazyguy

At least 50% of the population is of the opposite sex, oh my God to be seen in public with one. The world must be coming to an end, great tribulation must be upon us. The opposite sex, how could your husband. Ohhhhh.

What is happening in India?

by Vanderhoven7 in

i read a thread recently that spoke of the wt ceasing to print watchtower and awake mags in india.

does anyone know if there is any substance/documentation to that claim?

Crazyguy

The WT has pulled the plug on third world countries they don't care. If the religion can get more followers in a third world country do to the peoples efforts, those that live their fine but all expenses will also be on the backs of these people.

No One on GB Anointed

by TakeOffTheCrown in

what if no one on the governing body is truly anointed?

what if they just proclaim they are anointed and partake in order to gain authority, but they are not anointed?

what will happen to them when they die?

Crazyguy

The Bible says that only Jesus was anointed. His followers we're part of the body of Christ therefore being of his body they enjoyed his anointing. There is no favoritism with God and all those that believe in Christ are gods sons no distinction.

Over night evolution, when the animals got in the Ark that ate vegetation after the got out they started eating each other. All the animals that didn't eat meat must have eaten manna from heaven. But the most important part ofbthe story is god got to eat BBQ chicken. So I guess the Ark was just a big refrigerator.

Elder harassed my mom and asked for donation

by kaik in

my mom had surgery last month and she developed complication and had to be on antibiotics to treat infection.

so, she is recovering slowly, but things was tough on her and she was not attending kh or went to assembly two weeks ago.

nonetheless, elder showed up at her place and instead providing her with comfort he started to harass her that her faith is weak, she does not put trust in jah, etc.

Crazyguy

This elder that's looking to collect is really aggresive, wonder if he puts some of the money he collects in his pocket. Never heard of an elder being so aggressive about donating.

Could Wt afford to proselytise in China if they were allowed in.

by joe134cd in

i was just thinking today if china opened it doors to wt, and there was the surge of interest as was the the case with the european eastern block countries when communism 1st fell.

what would be wt reaction toward it.

could wt even afford to proselytise in china.

Crazyguy

If the doors we're allowed open the fact is that the overwelming majority of people signing up to become Christians would sign up with religions that help them financially. Thats not the Borg so growth would be just incidental.
