Is Sallvation a gift or by works? (An explination)
by A-Team inthis is for the jw lurkers out there.
now, lets look at how the word salvation is used in the bible.
we see that the word gift is used when the bible describes how one obtains salvation, but the word earned is never used.

False Christs---False Prophets
by Sunspot in~~~"at that time if anyone says to you, 'look, here is the christ!
for false christs and false prophets will rise up and give great signs and wonders so as to mislead, if possible, even the chosen ones.
" mt 24:23,24. what "form of religion" has announced that christ has already returned (in 1919), <u>invisibly</u> and chosen them as the only ones he has approved over all the earth?.

If you lived in Iraq ...
by free2beme in... would you wake up each morning wondering, "is today the day i die in a suicide bombing, or will it be tomorrow?
" i ask, as it seems a suicide bombing is becoming as common as breathing over there and i am convinced, it will not end until they all die and the last man standing will blow himself up, as that is just the thing you do.
although, if we pull out, it will happen faster.

Gas prices soon to pass $4.00 mark
by free2beme ini remember last year, a lot of blame against the republican congress for doing nothing to stop big oil companies from raising prices.
democrats are in office now, and no one seems to be saying anything.
why are the democrats not being the night and shinning armor about gas prices?.

Diane Wilson~~~ex-JW
by purplesofa inpublished in psychology today~~~here is a small bit from the article.
http://www.dianewilson.net/disc.htm.
as desperate as i was to be convinced that the society would have no effect on my destiny, at some level i still believed it was god's channel and that my life hinged on obedience to it.

JWs leaders:pacifist?
by glenster inabout a generaton ago, the jws leaders' stance was that a jw could defend themself--john 15:13 ("the watchtower," june 1, 1968, p.347).
it was their expanded rules about worldliness that prevented jws from being able to work for the government, including the police and military and defend others.. the jws leaders still have expanded ideas about worldliness and government involvement.
but do the jws leaders still allow a jw to defend themself or have they changed that to pacifism?.

Helping those trapped in the WT!
by Vice ini've been on this site for a bit and i find it very informative.
i've got a request and was wondering if anyone would be up for it.
for all of those that have questions you'd love to ask a current jw, would you go to www.answerbag.com and post your question in the jehovah's witness category.
