    faith without works is dead...

    There are people who dont know what their doing, and there are alot of people who dont understand that they arent doing works. And in the end, if hell and god is real, they will be in hell according to religon. People who believe in god seem to take god being forgiving, and having mercy for...

    The end, and other matters.

    I might have been mixed with the 1000 years, my apologies. But also the ones in neither group would be the ones alive still that indeed had no hearing of such a god, or this religon, or were never informed properly.

    The end, and other matters.

    And just some extra off to the side questions. 1. If the organization did not actually prophesy the end in 1925 and 1975, then how come so many Witnesses left the faith immediately afterwards? ("They lost roughly three-quarters of the movement between 1925 and 1928, then suffered huge losses...

    The end, and other matters.

    Why does it matter who hasnt heard it yet. Gods supposedly ressurecting everyone for 1000 years then getting satan back out of his dog cage and seeing who still doesnt believe him, and kill them all. By the book of rev. everyone will be destroyed.

    The end, and other matters.

    I added other matters so i dont have to keep making a new thread because you seem to be the only JW that is active at this point, and I might come across other things. time to break out the coffee.

    The end, and other matters.

    "Nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom.” “There will be food shortages.” “There will be great earthquakes.” “There will be . . . pestilences.” These are all signs that armogeddon is near its end. These also are all things that have been on the earth for a long long...

    How can any true Christian not accept a gay Bishop?

    I'm going to open up a new thread in the JW DIR because I keep wanting to stray from the subject. It is nice to know that everyone is uptight though. but i still think that you cant be straying from the rules.

    How can any true Christian not accept a gay Bishop?

    There shouldnt be a nonstrict part of this religon. The religon is founded on strict, tight, intense rules. Rules that are aperently suppose to be followed and not skimmed around or else you are making the chance to 'stray from the path' larger. I'm not saying your wrong, but thats how this...

    How can any true Christian not accept a gay Bishop?

    Simply means that they enforce it different like he said, I think you misunderstood. Different places enforce different ways with everything from polotics to religon.

    How can any true Christian not accept a gay Bishop?

    I was never baptized. As a child my parents divorced and things went pretty awkward, on the short side my father saved me from making that mistake.

    How can any true Christian not accept a gay Bishop?

    It seems that things are rather different rule wise between the US and Australia. But I've been informed by my family already, my mother to be exact, that I would be completly cut off if i were to be athiest. It doesnt change some of the rediculousness i see in the religon and beliefes, and i...

    How can any true Christian not accept a gay Bishop?

    I want to ask you what makes you as a person believe in the religon that you believe, Pegg. I'm not being sarcastic I just am curious as to why you would believe it.

    what the bible says about vegetarianism

    Your telling me that i shouldnt have my fill of protien because an animal died @_@ it also says in the bible Genesis 9:1-3 "Then God blessed Noah and his sons, saying to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the earth. The fear and dread of you will fall upon all of the beasts of...

    Did Jesus take on the sins of the world?

    I disagree, Jesus couldn't have died for us. We are still full of sin and imperfection on bible standards. We still have brains. The ones who are said to have caused this were long dead and gone by the time jesus had come forth to to die. The relationship with god shouldn't have gone on ruined...

    How can any true Christian not accept a gay Bishop?

    You mean your bible. It says in Chapter 18 of the book of Revelation that when Babylon the Great is destroyed (ruling governments) that she will be made "devestated and naked", stripped of all her authority, power, and riches. No one will know what to do or what is comming next and it will be...

    How can any true Christian not accept a gay Bishop?

    Gods standard for JW's is to marry someone in the religon, which excuse me, is a crock of bull. You have a selection that is limited and then if you dont like them oh look, you get to be alone. Elders shouldnt be ruling over anyone but they inforce the rules and if you disagree and decide to get...

    How can any true Christian not accept a gay Bishop?

    That isnt right. My grandfather is one of the elders, and he is very strict and tight to the rules. I was raised in this religon, and if they knew anything about me being an athiest i would officially be thrown out. I know what a misterial servant is. I know the rules well, as it was put into my...

    How can any true Christian not accept a gay Bishop?

    Being gay isnt a CHOICE you dont just wake up and go oh look today im going to be gay so i can be different. You cant help your attractions as to which sex they happen to be. It isnt refusing, and it isnt a mental problem. Its just an attraction. My grandfather is a Jahovah's wittness, infact...

    The fall of man; Free will

    In a sense they did get destroyed, they went from everlasting life to death. But they also gained greatly. I dont believe that there could have been free will and The garden obviously wasnt perfect if it could allow something like the serpent inside, to trick eve in the first place. In that...
