  Why are you looking forward to 2005?

  by Nowhere in

  2. beliefs

  anyone heard anyting of 2005?

  i've spoken to some witnesses here, who are really worried about 2005. they say it was pretty obvious at the last convention, that the world may end in 2005. because of 1975 and the fact that jesus was 30 years old, the last time he preached on earth... .

  what have i missed?

  Dying you will not die?

  2. bible

  i have a question that has puzzled me since i got my large print bible...... in genesis 2:17 it states.... but as for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad you must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will positively die.".

  the footnote reads.... lit.. " dying you will die.

  " okay i understand that... .

  two questions about jesus.

  Non-JW and newbie to board w/ ?'s...

  by BlazingButterfly3 in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  where do i begin...well first let me say that i have similar situations with others on this board because i am involved with someone who is a witness.

  as i stated in my title, i am not.

  i am also a newbie to this board, and i am curious as to know if there is anyone out there who was a non-jw who converted and is glad that they did so?

  Another question none can seem to answer for me!

  by Bosho in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i'm just full of questions and here's another that no one in the hall has ever answered with conviction.. they say that the church steeple is shaped like a phalic symbol (please excuse spelling mistake, mislaid my dictionary!)..

  so why then was the temple shaped in a remarkably similar fashion (the picture in the back of the big bible always worried me).

  maybe, just maybe, the church is shaped after the original temple and not .... what they say it is.

  JW's DO eat Blood

  by Yerusalyim in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  why is it that jw's are so big on this no blood thing, yet still eat blood in their meat?

  the dubs i know claim to "cook out" the blood, but this in no way meets biblical standards.

  in fact the way meat is slaughtered doesn't come close to meeting kosher requirements in the bible.
