"Q17) What should be done if we have sinned and need spiritual help?"
"(17) What if we have sinned but are unable to pray because our sin has made us spiritually sick? In this regard, the disciple James wrote: "Let [such a person] call the older men of the congregation to him, and let them pray over him, greasing him with oil in the name of Jehovah. And the prayer of faith will make the indisposed one well, and Jehovah will raise him up. Also, if he has committed sins, it will be forgiven him." James 5:14, 15."
Does that mean if one sins and can still pray he/she doesn't have to go to the elders?

17Comments You Will Not Hear at the 8-26-07 WT Study (SIN-HOLY SPIRIT)
by WT Comments in"every sort of sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men," said jesus christ, "but the blasphemy against the spirit will not be forgiven.
" (1 john 5:16) but is it left to the one who has sinned seriously to determine whether he has committed "a sin that does incur death"?.
(psalm 51:11) however, if we are deeply grieved over a sin we have committed, it is very likely that we are truly repentant.

Very Sad
by geevee intoday my in-laws were telling us about an old couple in their cong.
sadly the wife who is nearly 80, is dying of cancer.
she has it so bad, she cannot eat, only drink a little.

If she is near death then this is probably bringing her some comfort whatever her reasons are. At ninety years old and near death, I doubt she is trying to make herself look good to others.

LOL, I didn't mean to put it under bible topics. Thank you everyone for your help!
I think I kind of took a little bit of all your advice. Thanks . . . It is still missing something though.
I slightly breaded the chicken with flour and cayenne pepper, probably not enough pepper b/c it didn't come out spicy at all.
I took the chicken out, added chicken broth, mushrooms, water crest, green onions to the pan. Cooked that up a little put the chicken back and let it cook a little more.
It was still missing something so I added a little regular pepper. That made it a little better.
Then I thought maybe a hint of sweetness so I added a little bit of brown sugar to the sause. Still not right, so I added a little bit of lemon flavored soy sauce.
It's okay but still not quite right. I never claimed to be a Chef
Maybe putting wine in the sauce would have made a big difference. My fiance is gone and I couldn't get the damn wine bottle open. It's so hot in my house so I gave up on the wine.
JWDaughter, I started the white rice as soon as I got home from work. ;) -

Moshe calls bro Sinutko- Grrr!
by moshe ini read the thread a few days ago about co, & do charles sinutko and his famous 1967 talk that ended with "stay alive 'till 1975".
it brought back a flood of memories.
i listened to his talks - randy has plenty of them on his website, too- http://www.freeminds.org/wav/wav.htm.

Last night's BIG LOVE

I'm thinking Niki may get kicked out too. Did you catch the line when Bill confronted her about having a party? I forget the exact words but he said . . . "in my house" or backyard? I forget now but is was my something.
I think him and Niki deserve each other. They are both so hypocritical and they don't even seem to realize it. They both rationalize their selfish and dangerous behavior. -

Yeah I can't help but think someone (other than Roman) is going to get killed.
I'm already trying to figure out when season 3 will start. When did Season 2 start? -

"sandy did you catch that barbs mother had been " unsealed" from her late husband so that she would be "sealed" with her new husband. thereby being his second wife in the afterlife? polygamy is ok in the afterlife to mainstream mormons i guess."
I did catch that I had to rewind it just to be sure I was hearing right. Do they really believe that? -

That was so funny when Bill told her to shut up. How about when Ben told his Grandma he's dating twins? LOL
I cried also when Barb's mom talked to her before she left the wedding. Barb telling her she didn't know what the after life holds if she see her again . . . That last line where she said she at least wanted to see her in this life. OMG I cried. Really heartbreaking.
How about the snakes? That's the part that made me scream even though I knew there were snakes under the blanket.
Oh how about Wanda getting ready to poison Cathy? LOL That is one crazy lady!
I especially liked the scene with Bill dancing with Sara and how she told him he has no credibility with her. LOL He totally deserved that.
