my brother may have seen the light
by Ellie in.
my younger brother may finally after 2 years have seen jehovahs witnesses for what they really are.. the whole time he has been studying he has had no social life, they have been happy for him to go to meetings and out on field service but nobody has wanted to bother with him socially.. he has been living in the house of my older sister who is a devout witness and a bit of a cow.. anyway, a few weeks ago she asked him to leave as she didn't think he was trying hard enough to 'make the truth his own', so he moved in with a couple of his collegues who share a house.. anyway, he has just been round to my house and told us that he has had a brilliant weekend with these 2 collegues, he even went to the pub yesterday and met a girl and has been on a date with her today.. this may not seem like a big deal but it is, the difference in him was phenomenal, he seemed so much happier and its given me hope that he might finally be breaking free.

Explain 1 Chronicles 16: 30; Psalms 104:5; Psalms 37: 9, 11, 22, 29, 34
by findingmyway in.
if i remember correctly, these and other scriptures like it support the belief of "paradise on earth" inhabited by righteous people forever.
sorry to make you pull out your bibles, but do these verses confirm that the earth will always exist (i.e., never totter) and that the righteous will live on it forever?

What do you see when you look in the mirror?
by findingmyway inwhen i look at myself in the mirror i see a different person than i saw a few years ago.
also, when i look at photos of myself from a few years back, i don't even know myself.
not that i look that much different physically -- it has something to do with the eyes.
