  Are the JWs ===THIS === Freaky ??

  by Lampokey in

  if anyone perceives the jehovah's witnesses as a strange bunch , then please do take a look at this site:.

  http://www.landoverbaptist.net.

  regrettably, a condition of registration is that their beliefs are not to be questioned on the forums.. i will find a way around this by careful syntax .

  My Thomas : Why did Jesus not rebuke him ?

  by Lampokey in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  jw doctrine teaches that jesus was not god.i do not know if is doctrime , but i also get the idea that jws believe the bible to be completely and literally correct.. luke 18:19 : jesus asks a ruler "why do you call me good?

  nobody is good , except one , god".. how , then , do jws explain john 20:28 , where thomas says "my lord and my god!".

  if jesus was not god , he would certainly rebuke a disciple for blasphemy.so , why did he not set thomas straight ?

  JOHN - The Lazy Apostle ?

  by Lampokey in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  from the gospel according to john , 21:25 new world translation :.

  "there are , in fact , many other things which jesus also did , which , if ever they were written in full detail , i suppose , the world itself could not contain the scrolls written.".

  well , john , here you are , charged with the responsibility to relate the life and times of jesus , and you do not tell us what these "many other things" are.. why not ?

  Mentally ILL People : Will they be saved ?

  by Lampokey in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for the sake of argument , i will presume that respondents believe in the concept of salvation.. broadly - very broadly - i would put the mentally ill in two categories :.

  the retarded and the criminally insane.. an argument is made that the retarded will be saved : http://www.gotquestions.org/mentally-challenged.html.

  but this does not , imo , properly address the issue of salvation for the criminally insane.. will they too find salvation - because they do not have the capacity to understand the biblical message (although some may believe they are doing god's will) - or will they be damned - due to their evil actions?.

  Blood and Food

  by Lampokey in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i am well aware of jw doctrine concerning blood and its foundations in acts 15:20.. i am also well aware of how much discussion this has provoked.. could ex , or current , jw's comment on one aspect of this please :.

  the ban on blood seems unequivocal and would seem not to leave any room for compromising.. in that case , would eating a piece of red meat be in violation of jw's beliefs?

  presumably , it would , as even a well-cooked piece of meat would contain blood molecules.have any jw's raised this point with their congration's elders?.
