  Jealous Murderous OT Yahweh Jehovah really is Satan?

  by Shanagirl in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i would love to start a discussion (not a debate) with others that follow the gnostic writings from the nag hammadi library.

  i am a believer that pretty much every belief has some truths and fallacies.

  some say its a game of 'only taking what you like out of something'.....i say, its using discernment to find the 'pure nature' of what god would be and is.

  Fhis is the birth of the Atheist (i will show u when im lowed to post)

  You feel it?

  to the song (sunshine in Amigio in D minor)

  god. He is merciful....in what way? The way a human recognizes it. with feelings and pleasure, emotion, pride.....yet the Bible tells us to negate all said things...why? We are human--imperfect, fucked up, because god did t see that apparently free will lead to our forgetting him....but if im wrong God created us, our being our emotion , iur flaws--and left us to chals....to prove a point? To prove man cannot rule lurselves? Hmmm..interesting. Or is it that. godeft us long ago to our chaotis ....our philosophosing?. So where is God to judge us now? I questioned him!!! But why would my leasley life compare to countlesss others who died and not cause Jehovah watched em? F*ck me it is APPALLING how out of touch MOST hikans are with real life....God help us...for no one else will

  So this is it? This is life? In this bubble? To the time of "sunshine, (adigio in D minor) listen to it and i promise it will change u!

  No i think not . I may be a husband to a JW wife, a father to jw kids (if they even know what it means) but this is the straw. The final straw. I have a vacation in Colorado...with all in and Baptised Jws. But i have an obligAtion, a TRUTH. I must share it. I have an OBLIGATION not to lie to witnesses...if truth is counter to them the. I MUST be more truthfil, no matter the consequences. So i shall buy my under armour my strength my imperfection...and ask the Questikns i know no indoctrinated Witness would ask. I have to know and address my problems and questions in Co USA..i hope my wife and mother inaw willl accept my imperfection ( hoch i know means absute truth)....i will expose them. My mom in law ready know that the GB should not and does not rule lver their beliefs.

  ny wife is on the brink...hera put her there when she told her not to judge her inqctive sis....oh yes a small gem. Help us. Raise us up to the human capacity of hogher learning...to just tiink beyond the WT help us!!!!

  2. friends

  i am doing one of my dreams for a while: growing a beard.

  it may not seem like much, but it's quite the experience for me.

  it's probably a rite of passage from jw to exjw lol.. besides the itchyness, i hate it that it curls so much (i have hairs that naturally start to curl after a certain length).. anyone here have tips on taking care of a beard?

  by Jon Preston in

  this is difficult for me to discuss.

  i love my wife and i live my family.

  but since i became a jw i feel like ive lied more than when i was "worldy"...is it stress and the relentless pressure to do more?

But i know since being a dub ive lied about money (often spending more than i admittd) about my doubts and true feelings (to protect her from the real truth) Nd with each day i feel it even more...it weighs on my conscience...or whats left of the tattered thing it used to Be. Im not sure how much longer i can carry this load but i have to be cautious. Does anyone esle feel this way?

  god can be our special friend.we can get to know him by his creative works and his word the bible.he provided a ransom(jesus) for sinners.a friend who cares about you,understands you and is loyal.. however,would you want god to be your friend after you read the bible hi-lites.a god who burns people with alive with fire and sulfur:gen19.

  if your friend talked to you like this,abimelach,you are a dead man,for that woman you have taken is already married:gen 20.

  I love how it brought out that God was not hiddn or hiding and we could realky interact with him.....weeeell he isnt righ here, he is hiddn especially if hes using Jesus to do all his work and all that...so jesus we can get close to right? But Gods off doin his on stuff apparently.
