Why is the least in the kingdom of heaven greater than John the Baptist?
by esw1966 inmatthew 11:11 - i tell you the truth: among those born of women there has not risen anyone greater than john the baptist; yet he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.. if all who hope in christ go to heaven, what makes us better than john the baptist?

Called Dad. Got his wife.....
by esw1966 inwell, i called my father this saturday.. i havn't talked to him for a year and a half.
when i talked to him at that time i said my goodbyes and told him we would probably never see or talk to each other again because of his stand.. he got choked up a bit over that comment and said, "don't say that.
" i said, well unless you decide to change matters that will be how it will be.. so, i was able to tell him i love him and he told me he loved me too.

What about an Podcast about all of our 'testimonies'? Your thoughts?
by esw1966 inmuch of christianity is spread by a person telling another person of what christ has done for them.
it is called a testimony.
they can be very helpful in bringing others to chirst.. i was wondering how effective it would be to create a podcast featuring all of our experiences in and out of jw.

I met an ex jw at church today!
by esw1966 ini recently wrote an email to my pastor and let him know of my story and journey up until this point.. he thanked me for blessing him with my story and had stated that he was praying for me and my situation and my 3 children.
he was very encouraging, positive, and loving.
after getting his quick response, i received another email from him stating that he had just received an email from another ex jw and how similar her story was to mine.

Hope this helps YOU as much as it did ME!
by esw1966 inhere is a sermon about matthew 18. it is regarding what to do when someone sins against you.. i thought it was very interesting and it's intent really moved me regarding how to 'deal' with a sinner.
it really spoke against what jw's teach and practice regarding the 'unrepentent' sinner.. it really made me view god differently and it really made me amazed at how loving god is and how that affects us.
it showed me how twisted the society is!
