Do You Try To Avoid The Witnesses When You See Them?

i think i typically don't want to be either love bombed or questioned.

i happen to see jws a lot while visiting my mom.

they don't go there with me, which works well for all concerned..

A startling example of a JW ignoring evidence

by Pyramid God in

i happen to work with my father, and today we got into another debate about the origin of life.

during the debate, while rebutting a lot of creationist canards, he said that mutations are always harmful to an organism.. .

after he left i sent him a quick email with a link to talk origins on the subject of mutations.

I find it very unlikely that he's seen that site before.

JC is not Christian, nor a replica of what is in Heavens!

by exWTslave in

though judicial committee arrangement is found in mathew 18:15-20, this seems to be a later apostate interpolation!

(acts 20:28-30):.

1) jesus would not speak of such a heartless arrangement whereby a person who does not listen to the church is finally disfellowshipped, because it is in sharp contrast to what he was saying in mathew 18:14 and mathew 18:21-35; 1 peter 2:22; contrast also mathew 5:3, 40, 41; 16:24.. 2) jesus would not have told his disciples (mathew 18:1) to take things to the church (presently more than 40,000 in numbers) which obviously did not exist then.

ExWTslave, are you a member of the brahma kumaris? You remind me of Abiather except you write better English.

Watchtower uses 1 corinthians 5 for disfellowshipping as well.

The Untold Story of Creation

i don't find the article itself very compelling but it seems to be opening up the possibility that a creative day is not a specific time period.

Laika

So the creative days could have lasted thousands of years, but what about millions or billions? Would they ever admit to that?

This will blow you away - if the moon were the size of a pixel.

by poppers in

this shows the scale of our solar system in a way that is a little more meaningful to our puny minds.

Do you think not having the book study in private homes has had much effect?

by truthseeker in

jw
friends

it's been a few years since the organization ended the book study arrangement in private homes.. gone was the last opportunity to have tea and biscuits and a natter with the friends afterwards.. do you think people regret losing the book study?

for some, it may have been the only time they were able to get some "associaton".

I moved to a new congregation just as I started my fade. I have no doubt this would have been much more work with a book study group keeping tabs on me.

prophecy, Revelation, Christ returns, and many more

by livinstone in

to all christ believers, truth about man made churches around the world.

these prophecies are of no private interpretation 2 peter 1:20. my testimony on video is all real just google "christ testimony of the churches around the world".this message is not a joke before the lord and his christ.

book of revelation and daniel prophecy about the beast and 42 months of spiritual perdition-i am the witness in seeing the beast ascended out of the bottomless pit and in spiritual perdition right now.

Too many scripture references in one post! Narrow your subject please.

The Best Public Talk I Ever Heard (though the speaker was disfellowshipped thereafter)

by exWTslave in

the best public talk i ever heard was one i heard in a jw kingdom hall.

unfortunately, the hurriedly formed jc disfellowshipped him within a couple of weeks for not worshipping the octo(headed) gb.

this happened two years back when i was his fellow-elder.

Is the healing code website your own? It seems to be selling something.

I am suspicious of you.
