  Is the Bible Really the inspired word of God?

  by Shirlgirl in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i ask this question simply to see what others think....... when my daugther was 16, she came to me late one night after we had come from a meeting and asked me...."mom, what if the witnesses have it all wrong?

  there are only 66 books that we use, what if we are worshipping the wrong idea?

  " she then walked out of the room and went to bed...... god, did that open a can of worms.....because i actually started thinking on that.. however, i took it a step further....what if religion on whole had it all wrong....so i began to do research, and what i found was amazing to me..... 2timothy 3:16 began to 'ring' in my mind....."all scripture is inspired of god...." funny, didn't say just 66 books were inspired, but all scripture....then i began to break it down....what was scripture?

  PRESCIENCE ?

  by Blueblades in

  does god know in advance everything that people will do?

  does he foresee and foreknow all future actions of all his creatures,spirit and human?.

  or,is god's exercise of foreknowledge selective and discretionary,so that whatever he chooses to foresee and foreknow,he does, but what he does not choose to foresee or foreknow,he does not?.

  are you truly searching for answers... or are you like a spoil child lashing back with lies and truths.

  i don't want to talk about the wts,or the governing body.

  they are flaw and imperfect humans, just like you and me.

  One question that would make you think....

  by Dawn in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  no jw's have been to my door for years because they all know where i live - my mom drives by with her "car group" and points out our house, even stops to use the potty or get a pop.

  silly - i know, but mom doesn't seem to care about the shunning thing (thank goodness).. anyways - hubby and i have bought a new house and will be moving out of this congregation's area soon.

  it's a brand new house in a new area so i'm sure it'll get worked fairly quickly (new blood on the block).

  Jesus died on a stake?

  by SwedishChef in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  you've got to love the watchtower.

  they must think that the general population has no bible available to it.

  while scrolling through a list of their beliefs on the official site, there was one that really caught my eye because of its sheer ludicrousness.

  Who here is shunned by family?

  by Brummie in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  remember the watchtower that asked "are jws a cult?

  " and then listed things that cleared it of the accusations of being such?

  cant remember the date.. anyway one of the things it said was that "cults" usually have a lot of ex members testifying against it and the damage it has caused to their family lives.

  If You Weren't A Witness, What Would You Be Today?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  many of us are or were witnesses because we were born into the religion.

  others became witnesses because they really thought it was the truth.

  so many wish that they never had a jehovah's witness come to their door or their parents' door.
