  what would be the best way of explaining to my 17 yr old witness son (who lives the other side of the world to me) about the devil?

  i'm still a bit scared of it myself i must say, what are your thoughts on the devil?

  do you think he exists or not?

  jehovah's witnesses are jehovah witnesses going to receive new light on their most controversial doctrine?

  apparently there is a legal binding document posted with the european commission of human rights.

  go to their website:http://194-250.50.201/eng/e276info.148.html watchtowers application 28626/95.they made this statement,"the applicant undertook with regard to its stance on blood transfusions... that members should have free choice...without any control or sanction on the part of the association.

  Gifts of the Spirit

  by Mandybp in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  .

  if i remember rightly the witnesses believe that the gifts of the spirit are not available to them and haven't been since the apostles.. i'm just wondering because jesus placed so much emphasis on healing - it's interesting that the witnesses never mention it (as far as i can remember)
