Is there no tiny bit of your consience that tells you that you just could be wrong?
No.
I have been thinking a lot about ?friend in need? and her refusal to quote scriptures and her apparent reason; that we do not have respect for scripture here on this forum. She quoted scripture to one person because he said he was a witness, so I guess in her twisted view of JW doctrine it was okay to talk to him; he hadn?t crossed the line into ?apostasy? when we all know that the society clearly warns their members that they are not to come to sites like this. What a perverted sense of justice and love these people show.
I will admit freely that the reason I was disfellowshipped originally was because I divorced my husband and moved on a year later to find a new man. But the reason that I did not go back was not due to pride, as she stated in one of her earlier posts, as the reason people don?t go back, but because after researching the scriptures for myself, I knew that the witnesses were not telling the truth. I could not go back because even though it was going to cost me my family and everyone that I loved, I respect the bible as god?s word and refused to live a life that I knew was a lie.
I respect the bible and what it has to say. fin, you say that you do not talk to us because you believe we have no respect for the bible. In reality though, I suspect that you do not speak of scriptures because in some legal loophole running around in your mind, it is okay for you to be here as long as you do not ?profane Jehovah?s word by quoting it to apostates? even though you are in direct violation of the society.
I don?t give a damn about the society since they are guilty of many, many things and deserve to have everyone leave them. However, I will not sit here and have you tell me that I have no respect for the Bible and you know so much better than I, when you are not even willing to be faithful to the "Faithful and Discreet Slave" that you purport to hold in such high esteem.
