i was visiting a website in order to prove to people that the bible can be seen as a very extremist book.. however... the site also showed some contradictions and although i am aware of most of them i came to one contradiction that was actually very shocking: the part that satan tries to temp jesus christ.

most of the gospels mention this and the timeframe shows that it happened directly after the baptism of jesus.

however... look at what happens in john!.

Which part do you mean? All the gospels I checked says Jesus went into the wilderness and fasted for 40days After he was baptised?

i'm absolutely furious about it!

no message, just deletes me from his friends list-- which is fine.... but i can't even *message* him.

funny, the bum of a bil just had his district convention in his home country, which he attended with his mother and father.

This happened to me just last week!! A super JW, pioneer and elders wife, who used to be my bestest friend blocked me for no god-given reason or explanation. All I did was send her a FB message asking her a simple question. It always surprises me how unchristian like these so called true christians behave like.

many of us i'm sure experienced embarrassing or comical moments as a witness.

some things we'd rather just forget , i'm sure, but some things helped us think on our feet, quickly in helping others .

here are a few of mine.

I remember doing a presentation at the door when I was naive, gullible and clueless square 19yo JW. The magazine I was offering was about Sects. I had a male HH and he said he didn't know what it was. I remember having to repeat the word several times. I was so embarrassed because sounded like I was saying "sex" all the time!!!!!

despite everything, i still have a lingering admiration toward those who serve or have served in bethel.

it is not that i believe it is gods organization in any way, shape, or form.

After all those sales of their properties one would think they certainly have the money to pay them some sort of settlement!!! Oh well, they will be held accountable for their actions one day.

1 John 3:17-18

But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him? Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.

Matthew 25:37-40

Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’
