"Accept Jehovah's Authority" - Study Article 24th Aug
by passwordprotected inwhat space does that leave for jehovah?
the theme text is 1 john 5:3 which refers to the un-burdensome commandments of god.
quite what that scripture has to do with authority is puzzling, as it talks about the love of god not jehovah's authority.

How do I get past the fear?
by Quester55 ini';ve been indoctrinated for a long time.
i have a residual fear that maybe, maybe, just maybe they (jw's) might be right.
but my logical mind says they are so far off into left.

Can i just ask about the public and non public watchtowers..
by dobbie infor those of you that know, is there any difference between the two?i haven't been here for a few months and wondered if the public wt is tolerant and friendly than the witnesses one,and if the witnesses one was more hardline, covering the more controversial things?would just be really interested to find out if the public one has articles more designed to catch householders out, without putting anything in them that could put them off ie discipline (shunning) or blood etc.
thanks!

Preaching to Mask Problems
by WTWizard ini have noticed that the witlesses seem to have more success in scamming people that are having ongoing problems in their lives.
usually they have stagnant jobs, poverty, are having zero success with the opposite sex, or are having major issues with their health (especially mental health).
those people usually fall for the promises that said problems will be removed in the new dark ages, that the witlesses will take care of them, or both.. often, what will happen is that the person will become zealous in studying.

What happened to the simplicity of the early church?
by Pahpa inearly christians were drawn together by their love of christ and each other.
most were just hard working average people who had little education and no understanding of the philosophies of the world.
the gospel message of the kingdom and the future hope of life everlasting were the basis of their simple faith.
