  does the new world translation ever reference the holy spirit as a "him"?

  if not, does it refer to it as an "it"?.

  thanks!.

  My memorial visit this year.

  by TweetieBird in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so i have a jw relative now living with me so i went to the memorial this year with him since he is new to the hall and doesn't really know anyone.

  the warmth was amazing (insert sarcasm here).

  one witness couple that has been stopping by and relatively new to the area saved us seats so they talked to me, one other sister and her brother talked to me.

  he actually is going to become a witness for this girl.

  her mom is disfellowshipped, trying to get reinstated.

  i found out from a non-witness friend of mine that my friend's son has already bought a ring for this girl and is planning on becoming a witness for her.

  WOW-crazy day at work. Congrats to me???

  by TweetieBird in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  sharing my wild day at work today because it is 1am and i can't sleep.. i am an assistant manager at an apartment community.

  the manager has been a complete nightmare (bipolar and incompetent) so the last 10 months have been challenging to say the least.

  got to work this morning and our regional was already there which was a little strange but half expected due to something that happened last week.

  even though this is primarily about coming out of the gay closet - it can also apply to coming out of the "apostacy" closet.. http://www.upworthy.com/a-4-year-old-girl-asked-a-lesbian-if-shes-a-boy-she-responded-the-awesomest-way-possible.

  Has the organization changed their policy toward inactive ones?

  by TweetieBird in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for the past few years, family members and long time friends have pretty much ignored us because we don't go to meetings.

  recently, my sister (a regular pioneer) asked me to friend her on facebook, my mother-in-law (a regular pioneer) actually visited us and stayed in our home and another friend that i haven't heard from in years just asked me to friend her on facebook.

  just curious..
