My good lil JW wife received the following heartwarming e mail. GAG!...
Experience: Told by instructor in recent MTS class graduation (Angola Construction)
One day during a class (in Portugal) a pigeon flew ino the classroom. It was injured. The students decided to help it back to health. It was a messanger pigeon. Anyway eventually it was ready to be released and so they let it go and it flew away. In another part of the country, a congregation was looking for a venue to hold the Memorial. Eventually they managed to find a restaurant that they could book. Afterward when the brothers went to pay for the use of the place, the owner wouldn't accept the money. When they asked why he explained that he has messanger pigeons. One of them went missing for a few weeks, but then it came back. Inside the message holder was a message that read: Jehovah be with you. It was the same pigeon that the MTS students had cared for and released. Even the pigeons are helping to witness to Jehovah.
I hate to admit it but at one time I would have actually bought this load. I see things like this now and wonder what was wrong with me at that time, chemical imbalance maybe.
Wow what a story Isn't that great. What a mirricle.
Pity about all thouse starving africans and all those wars and stuff. And molested kids and horible car and train smashes and all. But isnt it great these people are getting the good news. That must realy be evidence of Gods blessing. I think I will personaly thank him when I get to heaven.
do u dismiss the story out of hand? assume it to be a myth thats been passed around? assume that other religions all have similar 'experiences' that simply result by virtue of size of organization times coincidence?
im actually curious. weve all heard tons of these stories. some we know, _are_ mythical. but ive always wondered. so heres a good case-in-point. do u think this actually happened and if so what do u think of it?
All religions have similar myths. Just watch 10 minutes of any church show or TBN on television and you will hear how god has shown his favor it each and every one of them. And just look at how much god loves Microsoft, surely the lord has blessed them and look at the success of pornography on the internet, truly Jehovah has added to their increase.
