  Death in the Family

  by sooner7nc in

  2. friends

  today my extended family lost someone much too young.

  my 18 month old cousin bryler fell in a swimming pool yesterday and was missing for several minutes before he was discovered.

  his mom and grandmother and several other family members performed cpr and tried to revive him while waiting on the ambulance (which took quite a while as they live in the backwoods of southern oklahoma).

  Main reason JWs are JWs

  by Batman89 in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  what is the(or what was your) main motivation for serving god as a jw(or any christian)?.

  a) love for god and genuinely trying to learn more about him and bible truths?.

  b) to escape punishment/death at armegddon?.

  3rd generation born in... I believed it all but hearing the constant reference to how the 'new system' would solve EVERYTHING did it for me. Cant believe I was that stupid and gullible....

  for me, it was the idea of never dying and living forever.

  plus being a bible scholar.

  For me it was thinking jw's were the only religion that had 'the troof' & worshipped the true god. I didn't realise at the time that god was 8 - or should I now say 7 - men who were in Brooklyn & the so-called 'troof' was all lies...
