Christ in You The Hope of Glory:Being Realized

by hopeofglory in

the mystery of the ages was revealed to the gentiles 2000 years ago.

the mystery is "christ in you, the hope of glory" (colossians 1:27).

the churches do not and never will teach this even though it was revealed to the gentiles.

There does seem to be a fair few accidental dislikes, how about moving the dislike to the other side of Flag?

Like Flag Dislike

I know the way you have it is more natural, but there's some fat fingers and small screens out there...

Or you could increase the spacing of course.

Am I the only "witness here besides the admins?

by TheOnlyRealWittnessHere in

with all the negativity here i was wondering if i am the only one here that's a witness.

.

the topic pretty much says everything..

I used to be a "real witness", then i discovered that i had been lied to all my life and i'd had my head up my arse for 40 years, ... if you discovered you'd lived your whole life with your head up your arse wouldnt you want to remove it and smell some fresh air for once?

The freedom is awesome.

A Toast to Windchimes

by DarioKehl in

i recently researched on jw dot org why toasts are not allowed.

in the article, they candidly admit that wedding bands also have pagan origins, but their modern understanding trumps this fact since they serve another function: signifying whether or not a person is married.

same with neck ties, i guess (although their pagan origins were not mentioned in the article).

I used to ask these sort of questions when i was in, my brain didnt like the fact that it made no sense, but sadly it wasnt enough to drive me to do enough research.

Would you give your life for those that shun you?

by Esse quam videri in

'no one has greater love than this, that someone would lay down his life for his friends.'.

many have been hurt by the practice of shunning.

family members, [former?

They are not your friends.

Sorry, But Your Sad Story Doesn't Make Me Feel Better. Is it supposed to?

by Tempest in a Teacup in

i have very recently come out of a bout of severe depression which lasted for years.

i have ginormous underlying issues which i hardly talk about, especially to my family.. today my sister came in, wanting to force me to do something she wanted.

her strategy was to make me feel bad for feeling bad, just to show me that my problem (which she has no idea of but thinks she does) wasn't the biggest in the world.

Thinking others have it worse and i should have little to complain about actually does work for me, but only in a normal mental state, when i was suicidal it would not have helped one little bit.

I dont know what does help in that state tbh, i scared myself with increasingly intrusive thoughts of suicide that i went to the doc and got some happy pills about 8 years ago. I resolved to be on them the shortest possible time and then quit, for me that was 6 months and it was still a bit too soon to quit, but by then i had a handle on my thinking and monitored my own moods and thoughts enough to push thru it. I've never looked back, I am the happiest i have ever been in my whole life now.

I dont know what the answer is and i doubt there is a magic bullet one size fits all. The answer may be chemical, it may be psychological or a combination of approaches, but you are the person best placed to understand and analyse yourself. One thing that does help is to listen to the tape you play yourself in your head, really tune in and listen to it, if what you tell yourself is mostly negative then you are the only one who can change that tape and with effort and practise you can do so.

Good luck....
