For those of you who believe in the bible...
by TimothyT inwhat exactly has god been waiting for for the past 2000 years since jesus walked this earth?.
i have been wondering if the jw beliefs of the world coming to an end are literal or if the earth will always be this way but the ones who do good will go to heaven.. of course the jws would say that the world is nearing its end since 1914.. but what is realy going on here?
anyone got any ideas?.

What are the marks of True Christianity?
by TimothyT ini was browsing through the new public edition watchtower article for march 2012. generaly, id say i agree.
of course there are more than 5 ways of identifiying who christians are today, but the following are reasonable enough benchmarks:.
remain in my worldno part of the worldhave love among yourselvesi have made your name knownthis good news of the kingdom will be preachedhowever, what gets me is the constant demonstrating of the inadequacies of other religions, purely to bull up the jehovahs witnesses.

How my family is doing after my being disfellowshipped!
by TimothyT insince being disfellowshipped, i have gotten in touch with many gay jws and have listened to them and tried my best to help them in whatever ways i can.
its crazy because i see that i had it easy.
some of the pressure they have gone through is immense.

Feels like papa is in limbo
by TimothyT indad called me yesterday and told me that today he went to his first meeting in 6 months.
he told me that some brothers went up to him and told him that he they are glad to see him.
he said that he was happy to see them and not so happy to see some others.

Inactive, yet shunned!
by TimothyT inmy dad (49) (who was an elder for 10 year and hasnt been to the meetings now since april when i stopped going) sent a message to a younger unbaptised brother (19) in my congregation to see if they would like to get together and jam on their guitars.
the younger brother responded that he would like to but since my dad hasnt been to the meetings in a long time he feels its innapropriate.. needless to say my dad was a little pi**ed but at the same time he cant understand how he is also now being shunned despite the fact that he isnt even disfellowshipped.
why do these people show such conditional love when jesus taught the absolute opposite?.

Is homosexuality ever justifiable? I say YES!!!
by TimothyT inin the january 2012 awake, pages 28-29 there is another article about homosexuality.. .
the writers argue that genetics, the environment, and sexual abuse do not justify homosexuality.
the bible clearly states that homosexuality is wrong and is an abhorrent sin.
