  Helping people

  what do you say to someone that feels preaching is the best thing to do in helping people because you can save their life in the long run?

  should not waste energy on helping people when hungry, poor because a waste of time and its temporary.

  trying to have something logical and persusive to have my mom see helping people now is a good thing..

  this weekend my husband got a call from his brother stating his family do not want to hang out with us anymore because we make them feel uncomfortable.

  i think my husband was a little shocked and did not say much.

  i'm not sure if my in laws feel the same way we will find out on friday our usual family dinner day.. so its only tuesday but looks like a productive and better week so far.

  the more i'm reading and thinking about what i have previously learned it just opens a whold new can of worms.. my husband and i have been reading/comparing the nwt, diaglot, reference bible, etc.

  and i saw where the society added words, changed meaning, even added an entire sentence without ().

  i have seen where they have emphasized sayings in the watchtower that are not in the bible like "paradise earth".

  i was brought up around the truth.

  my dad was disfellowshiped when i was young, around 6-7. he was a elder and very devoted even going to jail when he was younger for the truth.

  he had a stroke and started preaching things that the society was not teaching and he was disfellowshiped.
