I want to see Metallica too, but I don't think they'll bother touring Tasmania. Maybe when they are much older.

To Those With Ears to Hear...

by AGuest in

to that he said, "the reply is not yours to make; it is mine.

his reply was that, "have i not told them?

so, then i asked how it was that i was speaking directly to the father, and not to the son, as i usually do.

Imagine I know nothing about religion.

Imagine I had never read or even heard of the bible.

You knock on my door and try to convince me to joing your religion. Can you do it without quoting from a book supposedly

written by ancient civilisations long dead? Can you do it with proof from your own experiences?

Prove god

Prove your hopes for the future.

For those who work "behind the scene"

by onacruse in

.

one thing i find out about more and more every week is that sooo many of you who post here are working, quietly and without fanfare, behind the scenes.

helping get the word out to local and national newspapers, helping people like vicki, supporting those who've filed lawsuits against the wts, developing personal relationships with other posters...what we see on the board is just the tip of the iceberg.. i'll not name names (you know who you are thank you.. craig

No Apples, as much as you want. Nobody is keeping a record of how much you do, or accomplish (cept maybe Craig)

How Do You Handle Death?

by minimus in

jw
friends

for most witnesses, the ressurection hope keeps survivors going.

i knew of some jw's that were in such denial that they would want to believe that "they're just sleeping but are still alive to jehovah.

" others would bust themselves "in the work", while others would "mourn as the nations do".

My nephew suicided 11 weeks ago. At the service, my brother spoke about how his youngest daughter asked him how she would recognise her brother when he came back.

She is only about 7, and she couldn't/wouldn't attend the service, her choice.

That was the first death that really affected me, he did it for many reasons that I understand.

I cried for the first time in 30 years.

I'm usually OK about death, we are born, we grow, we die. I'm looking forward to growing old and going. But I think each death affects all of us differently.

I think this question is, how long is a piece of string.
