wt dec-2014 page4: "a bulgarian woman named irana rigthly observed, -it is not posspible to be close to god if you don t know his name.
".
if so many know his name, why this debate "jehovah vs yahweh" then?.
Interestingly Jesus never used that name, none of the other apostles did either.
The watchtower will admit we do not find "Jehovah" in any manuscripts written by the apostles.
They are the ones that added it which according to the book of Revelation they should be cursed if anyone adds to Gods word.
this looks interesting, this guy is bringing the right to family life into his case.
many have thought of doing this.
maybe a good test case.. http://www.standard.co.uk/news/jehovahs-witness-sues-for-150000-after-church-snubbed-him-over-fraud-claims-9750062.html.
I hope he wins but even if he doesn't at least it's out there in the news letting people know what the watchtower is only good in breaking up families.
we were supposed to treat them as dead!
did you follow this direction?

My daughter was DF, i was an elder and never stopped communicating and doing things with her,
Those in the congregation also knew about it, elders knew but no one ever said a word to me.
They also knew i would tell them to go F$%$ themselves.
I wasn't about to throw my daughter away because of an interpretation of a few verses in the bible from idiots in NY.

worldwide, child mortality has plunged remarkably...................because of the success of human efforts !.
"worse and worse" yup, yup, yup..... .
Early 1900 we lived to be 42
2014 average 80+
Many times i asked JW's if they would prefer to live in the 1700-1800....no answer from any of them.
They are like mules with blinders and of course i was one of them for 32 years
i know they're called exes for a reason, but my ex-gf and i had repaired our relationship which had been ruined due to my awakening.
she had stopped talking to me for months after the elders told her no to associate with anyone who disagrees with the "slave.
" of course since she has her own doubts and she still loves me, she eventually began talking to me again.
Don't make the mistake of getting involved with her unless she sees it's a cult.
She probably hopes that you will get your faith back.
standing on corners holding up the awake and watchtower magazines?
all hours, all weathers?
street work reminds me of randy crawford's "street life" - i've modified the lyrics.... .
I was 23 years old in the 70's and would stand outside a High School in one of the suburb in Chicago at 8 in the morning placing 40- 60 magazine every morning.
That was when i first learned the "truth" and just got baptized.
Eventually after a while i despised street work. I always felt like an idiot.
some will notice i was really busy during the weekend, thats true as some jws will say i was in a spiritual paradise surrounded by brothers.. my view of a paradise is everybody living in harmony and happy, my weekend experience was more like unhappy people and complaining about almost everything, not to mentioned the quite discussion in the corners (i.e.
gossips).. anyway, during on the discussions, the is (islamic state) topic was started.
it all started when on the elders said that he prefers to talk to muslims in the ministry since they are more open minded and accept our teaching.. i dont come from a muslim background but lived among them enough to understand what they believe.
You should have asked privately " What happens if we as a JW ask too many questions or don't agree with the GB?
Simple question that would shut him up!!
i have seen in my local area and while traveling a foreign country jw.borg booths at flea markets.
i remember about 8 or 9 years ago seeing a russellite table at a flea market, and a jw with me said how they were from russells time when those apostates left and the only preaching they do is setting up stands like that.
now jw's are doing the same thing.
What a waste
