OOps,
Anyway, using 1 Cor 15:44 seems incorrect to me. It says that 'if there is a physical body, there is a spiritual one. God has no physical body.
i know in 2002 i posted the fact that someone called me & told me that the wt was saying god had a body.
if you read that site ,you will see i had to apologise,it was a faullty read.. well today i have recieved a call from an ex curcuit servants wife informing me that the feb 1st wt 2009 page 5 .
seems to be indicating it .god has a body,,,.

Back in the 70s, I thought Disco was a sad ending to an otherwise pretty darned good decade of music. However, looking back, some disco songs have aged pretty well and I've reconsidered my negative view of at least some of it. That said, there are quite a few examples of Disco songs that are terribly repetitive and so bland that I'm glad the era is gone.
i went out this morning to pick up a few items for tonight's new years eve, and once it started snowing, i think everybody in town went out for last minute shopping.
it was getting very slippery, and traffic was everywhere.
i got home as soon as i could, and brother, i'm staying put!
Yet another New England snowstorm (we're just getting light snow in Eastern PA).
Obviously, all those sports championships have brought the wrath of God upon you.
tuesday sees the last group bookstudy for many.
i know the group that my wife attends will be having a bit of a party afterwards.
even my son ,who is 17 and has not attended the meetings for the past 6 months, says he wants to go on tuesday.
When I was in, the percentage of attendance for the bookstudy was almost always a bit lower than that of the KH meetings, but it was off only a point or two in terms of percentage, and sometimes it would exceed that of the TMS/SM.
as i announced some time ago, jwd as it is will not continue .... ... but .... it's clear from people's comments that they do like the site and many would like it or something else like it to continue.. one issue was the forum software that was self-developed and not really in a good state to hand-over to anyone but i've been working on that and can now reveal the first release of what will probably be called jwn (son of jwd):.
http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/.
it is still work-in-progress so not all features are enabled yet but it will allow you to browse the site in a similar way to this one and it is pointing at the same database (although because of the way the caching works, new posts made on this site won't appear immediately).
Kind of blows my whole theory - that Jehovah had finally acted and wrecked the work of Simon's hands.
But wait; just like the WTS, I'll simply adjust my understanding. The light grows brighter!
as 2004 winds down and my 4th year of association at this board winds down as well, my posting stats accurately reflect a transitition that been going on for me with respect to the jw religion, a process that is quite natural and healthy.
i'm sure that many members have had a similar experience.
here's a rundown of four years here for me: .
Mouthy,
It is interesting seeing Dansk's reply...and revisiting this thread each year thus far has been kind of like seeing a snapshot in terms of time and place.
No more kool aid,
We've lighted the tree and, this year, even put decorations outside for the first time (we don't have an outlet out front so it's just a ribbon and bows) but so far, no calls from elders. I do wonder when that might change. It's almost as if we're daring them.
Tex, Lisa, Scarred:
Good seeing you again!
have posted this on the other thread but just making this one as well:
i need to let you know that dad passed away this morning at 8am.
he fought so hard but in the end they could not get his blood pressure to rise and he died of heart failure.
The photo of you and your dad is very nice; I'm sorry for your loss and hope that you can find comfort during this very difficult time!
"I won't chase him anymore but let him come to me if he wants." Maybe that was the problem. If he perceives some desperation on your part, he likely won't be interested.

Yet another year has passed. I stopped by briefly this summer only to find that Jehovah had at last dealt Satan (Simon; starts with an S and has five letters, and has been bent on disrupting God's purposes, so the comparison is apt) a blow, forcing the closing of this board.
