Why does God need to be worshiped?
by Scully injust curious about this question today and wondered if anyone else has pondered this.. is worship meant to be a reverent show of appreciation for life that god imparts to individuals?
if that's the case, and someone - by the mere accident of their birth - has a truly crappy life, why should these people worship god or show him "appreciation" for their unfortunate circumstances?
why should anyone who endures hardships worship god, particularly if they have been worshiping god and then all of a sudden a heap of trouble just plops into their lives, unannounced and unwelcome??.

are great crowd jehovah's witnesses?
by peacefulpete in"all who have taken their stand on the side of jehovah must abide in his organization under christ, if they would live.
there is no exception to this rule...the name "jehovah's witnesses" applies specifically to god's annointed ones who have been taken out of the world and made witnesses for jehovah, and these alone bear the new name.
the official organization of jehovah on earth consists of his annointed remnant, and the jonadabs who walk with the annointed are to be taught but not be leaders.

BRAINWASHING ON BLOOD ISSUE FROM SUNDAY'S WT
by tresbella inits funny how when you are someone who has grown up a jw you take everything you read in the wt and awakes as fact.
you are never taught to discern or analyze what you read.
