  my computer died on may 30th and i just got it back from the shop today.

  theres no way that i'll be able to catch up on all the great news on the forum....when ya get older, ya read slower.. the fan quit on the laptop and i shut it down before it could fry the chips....still it cost an arm and a leg to get it running again.

  dell is a pain in the butt when it comes to selling parts to repair shops.. i've missed all of you and i see that there are a good many new members since i went quiet.

  What scriptures does the WTS use to.....

  i hope that some of the smarter folks on this board can give me some information as to what scriptural basis the wts uses to claim that god does not take any part in protecting his people in the last days.. in a discussion with a couple of elders who came to my door, i mentioned that god's holy spirit kept the organization clean in the first century after christ's death...acts 5:1-11. one of the elders said that god doesn't do that anymore but couldn't come up with a definitive answer.

  if christ is directing their organization why can't he use his powers or those of the angels with him to keep the pedophiles out?

  Should we discount the book of Revelation?

  by Warrigal in

  considering that the apostle john wrote the book of revelation based on the visions that he saw while on the island of patmos, and since there was no second witness there to see what he saw, should we not consider the book of revelation in light of the wts requirement that there be 2 or more witnesses when an accusation is made?

  he made accusations against and condemned religion, politics and commerce...where is his second witness?

  just curious....has the congregation ever bad-mouthed or sullied your reputation in the worldly community for leaving or getting kicked out of the organization?

  has it affected your employment, credit rating, etc?
