Unbelief and Salvation
by lriddle80 inhebrews 6:4-8. for it is impossible, in the case of those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have shared in the holy spirit, 5 and have tasted the goodness of the word of god and the powers of the age to come, 6 and then have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance, since they are crucifying once again the son of god to their own harm and holding him up to contempt.
7 for land that has drunk the rain that often falls on it, and produces a crop useful to those for whose sake it is cultivated, receives a blessing from god.
8 but if it bears thorns and thistles, it is worthless and near to being cursed, and its end is to be burned.. but then i read articles that say that you cannot lose your salvation and that this scripture isn't talking about that.. but then 2 timothy says.

I had an encounter today...
by lriddle80 inso, i had an unexpected encounter with a jw today.
she was the caregiver who came to work to relieve me and she pulled out a jw.org tract and i told her i knew all about it because my family were part of it and i see it everywhere on their fb.
i, without thinking about the consequences, told her that i used to be one and now go to a baptist church.

Daily Text calling themselves out!
by lriddle80 inso, my dad posts the daily text everyday on fb.

thursday, february 25 from among you yourselves men will rise and speak twisted things to draw away the disciples after themselves.—acts 20:30. sadly, the original christian congregation gradually became corrupted.

Narcissism
by lriddle80 ini saw this video a few days ago by jw analyzer that was very disturbing.
what i have learned and experienced about a narcissist is that they will openly confess their wrongdoing, but they do it by accusing someone else of it.
i guess that is called projection.. in this video, the guy picks out 2 tactics of "satan" .

Perfectionism
by lriddle80 indo any of you suffer from perfectionism?
i do and it may be the message that jw's put out there.
growing up in that religion, it's all about doing more, field service, meeting attendance, study, conventions, etc.
