The GB - Mystical?
by johnathanseagull in.
twiddling thumbs at work here lol...........question................. is there still an "air" of mystique about the gb within the rank and file, you know the "they must be soooo spirtual" blah blah blah..................i can remember people being so in awe of them, to the extent of wanting to attend conventions that a member would be giving a talk, as though it meant something special, .............. or have the r & f realised that the decision making and day to day activities are generally done and conducted like any other board meeting i've attended in my work and in thousands of other companies.

questions.
by kilroy2 inhas anyone ever sat down and made a series of questions that we can print and hand out to the people we know,.
so that when the dubbers come to the door they can ask the right questions to make the little buggers scurry for cover.. i have made a couple and it does work.
but if we could all put our minds togeather we could make a very concise to the point question sheet that is easy for non former cult members to understand and use.

I Couldn't Take Heaven Away...
by OHappyDay ini have a real problem when i meet people who are sure they are going to heaven.
the problem being that i have no authority to talk them out of it.
according to the new testament, only "the spirit" can determine who goes to heaven, not me nor any organization of men.. we say that only 144,000 go to heaven, but the bible does not say that.

) bible that defends the new world translation in the gospel of john.. any truth to that?

Why can't we give Jesus his due? -- 2 Cor 12:8, 9
by OHappyDay inwhile doing the watchtower study for this week, from the june 1, 2005 issue, i was literally floored by paragraph 2: "after [paul's] having prayed three times for relief from 'a thorn in the flesh,' he received jehovah's reply: 'my undeserved kindness is sufficient for you; for my power is being made perfect in weakness.
huh?
i thought paul said he "entreated the lord"???
