  Trauma_Hound,

  Can't you ever say something nice? The man is sick, for pete's sake!

  He is going into major open heart surgery. Out of 91 posts in this thread, yours is the ONLY one that is not positive. Grow-up, Trauma_Hound, grow-up!

  Hmmmmmm. . . . .

  Reminds me of Jim Bakker's damage control attemps before his great FALL in 1987.

  The Charlotte Observer Newspaper was Jim Bakker's "Dateline" in those years. They were digging up the "dirt" on Jim and he was denying it as fast as the Observer printed it. Guess who was telling the truth!?!

  DFWnonJW,

  What kind of work did you do in his offices?

  Did you get to have any conversations with any of the other office workers?

  How would you describe the people who work for him?

  Born Again - what do they believe ?

  by twinkletoes in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we have neighbours who have been very sincere "born again" christians, for about ten years.

  i know that quite a number of you on this forum are also born again, but my question is, just what do you believe?, i understand that you don't have any particular denomination and appear to join any church service as you wish.

  when i used to go out on "field service", i seemed to get different understandings of the scriptures, from born again christians, some seemed to be of the opinion that they would be taken up into heaven and armageddon would wipe the earth clean and then they would be put back on the earth, others seemed to think that they would go to heaven and stay there ?

  Generally "Born Agains" come from many different church denonmenations.

  To check out their beliefs, I would suggest that you go to this link -

  http://ChristianityToday.com/

  You may also want type in the following into a search engine:

  "Baptist"

  "Assemblies of God"

  "Christian Missionary Allience"

  That will give you a start. Go to some of the individual churches listed and click on a link that says something to the effect "What do we believe". Most church home pages will include this.

  hope this helps.

  Need Help with Info Sheet

  by Nickey in

  2. bible

  my somewhat "inactive" mother says she's getting the feeling that i'm losing my faith in the wts and has asked me to explain to her.

  problem is, i locked up because it's been so recent and my mother can be quite intimidating.

  she's a "see it to believe it" person and has suggested that i show her proof.

  Here are some links for you that will give you more than enough information about Jehovah's Witnesses for your info sheet.
  

  JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS
  http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Parthenon/7831/

  This site would make an excelent study form to print out. The artiles are short enough and will allow you to stick to one subject at a time. Look up all references in her WT mags and bound volumes. If you don't have the WT articles - check out Shaun's site for photo docs.

  Shaun's Research on the Jehovah's Witnesses
  (Site Contains Photo Documentation )

  Jim,

  You'll be just fine once the surgery is done. The first 2 to 3 days after are not very pleasant, but from there on, it will be smooth sailing. You will be "Amazed" at how fast you will heal. Take care, my friend.

  hi all, my name is eric, i'm 22 years old i live in kansas, and i am the new guy on the forum.

  just looking to meet some people who, like myself, have decided that being one of jehovah's witnesses was not for them.

  i stopped going about 1 1/2 years ago and have been feeling quite alone.

  i am so furious.

  the very zealous elderly pioneer sister who lives across the street (alberta) has been canvassing the neighborhood for studies.

  i watch her walk up and down the street and being very friendly and helpful with her neighbors (all the while preaching to them i'm sure).

  Thanks, Trotafox, for letting us know how this has come out. I was wondering what had happened. Glad to know that the JW is NOT winning in this case.
