thanks to bu2b and splash who mentioned this quote in another thread!.
but i thought it deserved a thread all of its own, such is the impact of this:.
the very best example of going beyond the things written comes from a 2008 watchtower.
Deuteronomy 4:2 , 12:32 and Rev.22:18-19 speaks of do not add or
take away from his word. The only revelation we have today is the
same committed to the apostles that was written down. This was what
the church accepted and practiced after the apostles that which was written,
NOT what is spoken. The same Paul who is claimed to write of traditions
specifically tell us, "do not go beyond what is written. How could he do this
if he approved of the apostles' teaching alongside the writings?
a visit to my ophthalmologist yesterday.
he told me i have 22-20 vision, so .
i ask if i have 20-20 vision why do i need glasses to read the news paper.. he laugh and told me most people need glasses after they reach 45 years of age,.

you may be able to see far distance but have trouble seeing things up close.
OK here is where my mind take off. Did they have spectacles in Noah day?Did
Methuselah after living 400 years have 20-20 vision or was he blind as a bat.
No way was Enoch able to read anything after 300 years.. I know what some are thinking, they
had perfect eye sight. So God created cataract...
i love the people who go to my congregation.
they are sweet, friendly, and lovable.
(which is one of the things that makes being awake so much easier.

OK, my daughter-in law is a Mormon. It was a recital for her music students, ages
3-15. I was sitting there thinking this is odd, most of her students are not Mormons and
the church gave her the ok to use the Church. It was performed in the chapel.
There was refreshment set up as you enter the chapel and folks fixed their plates and set in
the chapel and ate while the kids performed.
Holy sh--t, try that in the KH. Kids performing worldly songs, and my daughter-law addressing
the audience from the platform.
Anyway she did a great job with her students.
im here sitting and listening to youtube video songs and practicing on my guitar and checking out posts on jwn.
and one more thing, im seeing the spanish jws going door to door in my street.
they work my street every single week.
I believe they finally put my name on the do not call list,
the evil Apostate list. I see them knocking on all my neighbors
doors but walk right past our home, hell I'm a little jealous.
It made my day when they use to come by. LOL
If they ever come again to my door I will ask them how
many ex-JW's have you mat at the doors, and why are so many
of your young folks leaving the truth.
what year comes to your mind as the happiest?
maybe some special place you lived, being with special people, an unforgettable period that made it your happiest.
Senior and junior year in high school. Prior to those years I wasn't popular
with the ladies, LOL. I stood all of 5'4 and 135 lb. My junior year I was a starter
on the basketball team for the school and I grew to 6 feet. The calls and smiles
from the ladies began, my senior year Oh Boy. Dating the junior class queen, invited
to all the parties, winning the big game with time running out and the crowd lifting
me up and carrying me on their shoulders. Next day news paper james win game
against cross town rival. Voted most likely to play professional basketball. That
all ended, I was drafted by Uncle Sam. But those were good years, (HS 1964-65).
watchtower september 2015 study edition, "stand firm in the faith," paragraphs 16 and 17:.
following jesus example, we must read the bible daily, study it, and meditate on what we learn.

One more, Charles Taze Russell to tell him you are a A-hole, do

it is astounding that someone like this creationist can have no appreciation for the scientific significance of his discovery.
even in the face of evidence to the contrary, those who chose to believe rather than know will never forsake their ignorance.. alberta creationist discovers rare fish fossils in basement dig (full article and video).
"an alberta man who discovered a school of rare fossilized fish while digging up a calgary basement believes the world was created by god a few thousand years ago.. it's for that reason edgar nernberg doesn't think the fossils could possibly be as old as paleontologists are estimating.. "i subscribe to the creationist position, and i believe they were laid down in noah's flood, about 4,500 years ago.
Prehistoric skull with puncture wound could be world's first murder
mystery and it wasn't the murder of Abel by Cain, they figure it to
be around 430000 years ago. News this morning on the news.
