according to mathew 6:9 jesus instructed his followers in, vs. 9 " you must pray, then this way "our father in the heavens,let your name be sanctified ..... which rank & file jehovah`s witnesses have been led to believe for the past 140 or so years is to make a personal name of god namely jehovah known to all of the world ,because as they have so loudly professed christendom has kept that name away from the general public.. not true ,raymundus martinus a spanish catholic monk of the 13th-14th century first coined that name for god and it has been used in and on churches throughout christendom in the world ever since.. true christendoms emphasis has been on witnessing about jesus christ which is what the new testament is all about,not jehovah god, but jesus christ .
phillipians 2 :9-11. in the new testament ,( cgs ) jesus christ is never recorded as saying the personal name of god ever.. " " none of the apostles are ever recorded as saying the personal name of god ever.. " " none of his disciples are ever recorded as saying the personal name of god ever.. the new testament ,christian greek scriptures are all about bearing witness about jesus christ and after his time of bringing back people under his kingdom will he turn then it back over to his father, a thousand years when his rule is finished.. that is the message of the"kingdom interlinear of the christian greek scriptures" published by the wtb&ts ,says..
The more i learn about this subject , I believe the term lord is suppose to be used because there is not a real distinction between god and Jesus. It’s kind of the theme of the book of Acts.
Plus the book of acts is almost devoted to “ the name of Jesus”.
Plus the Tetragrammaton is often requoted and applied to Jesus in the New Testament.
Also the fact there is no copy of the New Testament containing the Tetragrammaton.
(so as not to hijack the tariff thread, i thought this would be better to keep separate.).
i guess my economics and finance classes in college have not prepared me to understand the latest round of tariffs/taxes that trump is instituting.. i really don't understand who is "paying" these fees and where they are going.
first of all a tariff is a tax and anyone who doesn't believe that needs to invest in a bridge in new york city.. to keep this as simple as i can, i'm thinking of a $1,000 refrigerator that i am buying.
Oops wrong thread.
As for tariffs, pay a little more and support US jobs.
MAGA

Part of the defensive mechanism of being raped as a female is vagina wetness and even the ability to obtain climax. It often leaves victims feeling extra guilty and confused.
Holy shit to have these clowns playing a tape back to this girl saying things “ sounds like you are enjoying it”. If it were my cong I would burn these assholes alive.

The elders should be charged for possessing child pornography. If something criminal took , it absolutely none of there business.

Do you hear about Russia? The end of the system has to be near.
Did you hear who is invited to the international convention.
So on and So on.
There is also zero biblical discussion.
yuck
grates on my nerves.
1.just been listening to this lady's innovtive tool as music instrument.
incredible story too.. https://youtu.be/_nlmm9kcbks.
2.listening to this gives me so much peace and relaxes me .
Lots of Alice in Chains. I never get tired of them. Especially love the new stuff with the new singer. They are not even close to being a Casino / State fair act.
I have also being listening to lots of 70s KISS lately. ( Strutter, Deuce, Detroit Rock City etc ). I am not old enough to remember them in there hayday but man they are like a dazed and confused time machine for me. 76-81. My aunts and uncles were all about high school age in there prime.
I also gave some old pubic enemy CDs a spin on youtube the other day. That was my high school. So awesome, even for a white kid in the prairies of Canada.
why is it that born-in jw children/teens who are not unbaptized publishers allowed to participate in the preaching work, but new people can't?
that's dumb.
.
I still laugh when people call it work. Trying to hand out literature to people who don't want it so you can hand in a time card so your family doesn't stop talking to you.
alyssa milano is saying that women have to go on a sex strike to take control of their bodies.
what do you think about this?.
I think my wife is already on strike.
i do bible study and attend meetings.
”well i was away and i was going to attend in that city”.
i did everything right, i told my bible study conductors in advance and genuinely i wanted to see another hall.
I was in a foreign country a few months ago with my wife and her uber pioneer friend and she made a huge fuss about missing a meeting. Funny thing she didn't even speak the language. I told her maybe she could just read a few chapters of bible instead that evening because we aren't going back to the city for your stupid meeting. Funny thing is she didn't even have a bible with her.
It was a real eye opener how pointless meeting attendance was.
