Laika:
What the Roman Empire embraced was the 4th C distorted version of Christianity--that was under Constantine.
What I was referring the pure Christianity of 1st C, directly linked to Jesus Christ!

Angels were sent to the wrong place!
by abiather ini was reading the portion for the christmas eve.. an angel of the lord appeared to the shepherds and told them: "today in the town of david a savior has been born to you; he is the messiah, the lord.
..... suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising god and saying:glory to god in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.
when the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, lets go to bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the lord has told us about.

prologos:
Even that script (if at all there were one) was back-fired!
Ransom teaching is only perpetrating what it was supposed to do away with! Have you not heard JWs (or anyone elser for that matter) praying? We thank you for the blessings … and on the basis of ransom sacrifice of Jesus Christ we seek your forgiveness for our sins! Thus Jesus’s death became a license to continue sin and to CONTINUE SEEKING FORGIVENESS!

If God had sent the same army of angels to the place where Jesus was being tried under false charges and had them repeat those sayings, tailored to the need of the hour, Pontius Pilate, would have ordered the death punishment of the REAL/SADISTIC culprits, instead of Jesus!
And not only Pilate, the whole Roman Empire would have embraced Christianity (thus pre-empting all the later persecutions brought on innocent Christians)

"Shepherd the flock of God"
by Laika inlooking after you dirty sheep can be a challenge for any of the 'gifts in men' among us.
thank jah that the faithful & discreet slave has provided an elder's manual for assistance, i mean, it's not as if the bible is any use in such matters.
here are some of my favourite pearls of wisdom to help us truly appreciate the blessings of the slave class:.

Don't worry about their DF standard.
* I have seen a JC disfellowshipping a person, and another (High Profile) JC cancelling the same disfellowshipping.
* I have seen the elders giving special attention to a disfellowshipped person (who is very rich materially); and refusing to reciprocating the greetings a disfellowshipped person (who is an ordinary man materially) gave to an elder--both happening in a wedding feast where I was present incognito.

My Experiments with TRUTH, a CO opens his heart!
by abiather inthis is the first message from the co:.
"william claire menninger, a co-founder of the menninger foundation in topeka, kansas, wrote 13 symptoms of mental illness.
one of them is: the attitude that i am always right and others always wrong.

Why are you afraid of being fooled by anybody? You were probably convinced of JW's extremism and blindness and came out. Good.
We want to convey the same to thinking JWs.
What would appear in my post (whether from me or from CO) is intended for JWs (not for ex-JWs)
The very fact that I am talking only about BIBLE and JWs is more than enough for anyone to know that I am here NOT for any other organization!
My strategy is simple--Using the same Bible and disproving the Claim of JWs that Bible is their authority!
My intention is sincere--I wasted half of my life with JWs--I sincerely desire it should not happen to anybody else.
Let us not spoil the discussion by any type distraction!

Cofty,
When I speak about Bible, you equate it with some other organization that is, in no way connectected with the Bible or JWs.
Let me make it clear:
Our subject is EXTREMISM and BLINDNESS of JWs--nothing else.
You will be convinced of this as the time passes by.

What you said about COs is correct. But this CO is now disillusioned, and is planning to come off the list next year. It seems you did not read what he sent to me:
Saturday and Sunday he was busy with Assembly, hence could read your replies only last night. This is what he says:
“I am happy that some of them (ignat, rocketman, island Man, and humbled) could read not only in between the lines but also my heart perfectly!
I will serve one more year as CO, then I will take voluntary retirement. From this week onward through 2014, I want to start a series in jw.net titled: MY EXPERIMENTS WITH “TRUTH,” a CO opens his heart.
It may help at least a few not to waste their lives, like me.”
He won't post directly, but through me!

Cofty,
“All of them were coming from the same ISP.”
Thank you for this clue. I was wondering what this BK and Rose Mary are.
Now when you said: “All of them were coming from the same ISP,” now understand what may have happened. I was transferred to my Head-Office last month. And nature of my work also somewhat changed. To avoid virus problem, I put a requisition for a second computer exclusively for net-related work. Office gave me an old computer. I am posting from this computer as I have somewhat relaxed schedule. I don’t know who was using this computer before me in this company of over 3000 people!
If you had told me of this earlier, we could have averted much wastages.
Thank you cofty!

Cofty,
I do not know who you are and what you are saying. But I feel like praising you for always saying negative, thus you make what appear in my post STAND OUT.
Day has no meaning without NIGHT.
