  by Legacy in

  2. friends

  to all who are still active...& those who are not...... is everyone ready for wt for sunday....1914....is everyone ready to see the friends faces, that will pretend all is well.

  but their minds will be racing.

  i started the article...talk about confusing...but maybe on purpose only a few in the hall will be able to break it down.

  "You knew what the consequences were when YOU decided to leave The Truth. This is YOUR decision and the outcome is YOUR responsibility."

  how many of us have had to deal with a version of that retort?!

  it's hurtful and i suspect - for some - that's partly because of the nagging feeling that our families may have a point.. but do they?.

  i was 15 when i got baptised, is it reasonable that as the 50 year old man i'll be on my next birthday i continue to be held to a decision i made as a schoolboy?.

  The GB can change their mind on doctrines over and over again with no consequences but a 14 year old that gets baptized but eventually loses faith in the watchtower and does not believe anymore will be punished for the rest of his life.

  Very sad indeed !

  Who says Perfect Humans were created, [evolved] to live forever? WT does*, genesis does not. do you?

  by prologos in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the only reference to living forever, (or indefinitely long) in the genesis 2&3 account, is in reference to the "tree of life".

  gen 3:22 "--eat and live to time indefinite--".

  this tree must have been hard to find because wt writers opined that eventually, in their faithful course, a&e would be led to that allowed tree to gain everlasting life's symbolic confirmation.. therefore as the ancients accidentally & correctly wrote, humans did not have inherent everlasting life, but it was gained through diet.

  Nothing lives forever around us. It's a dream that men has come up with.

  weekly bible reading question: Paul recommended disfellowshipping the immoral man, why not the lady involved?

  i cor.

  5 ---- was she out of the reach of the elders, because she was an unbaptized subject?--- were ladies of less important to paul's thinking?

  , like the primary blame on adam for "sin" rather than eve's?-- for those that still find the talking snake saga worthy of discussion for one reason or another.

  It's just like 2013....the men usually gets screwed. Have seen many, many cases that the wife gets off with a slap on her wrist when she commits adultery.

  A few tears on the part of the sister go a long way with the elders on JC.

  Remind her that going door to door preaching is a good way for her to be attacked by demons.

  Worldly people are all under Satan and demonized.

  She should stay home and be safe.

  Make sure that by the time you're done with it that you have convinced at dozen or so JW's to walk away from the watchtower because it is a cult.

  I've seen her growing up on her 500 acre Thompson Station,Tn farm.

  Lived right by her..very nice family and a sister in the congregation used to clean for them.

  Right now, looking at her, sticking her tongue out she makes me sick.

  Her career is over and she's just trying to be noticed with her trashy behavior .

  144k go to heaven. I always had a hard time accepting that and trying to prove that from the book of revelation.

  A book written in signs and symbols.

  Internet research of the watchtower opened my eyes about this religion being a cult.
