Yes, but the majority who get baptised are older ones. Some younger ones do get baptised but they are a minority.... not all young ones develop at the same rate...spirituality is not judged by how much knowledge you have...its judged by your inner qualities.
You are right that it the parents...
Well thats a shame because you are being gravely misled by apostates who actively seek to keep people away from Jehovah by slyly twisting what we say and do.
One thing ive come to realise too is that anyone who continues to believe in the trinity will never come to know Jehovah because he is a...
I havnt heard the GB claim perfection yet...nor does being 'spirit directed' mean perfection either.
I know its easy to form opinions from 2nd hand information, but i know a lot of people have changed there negative view after taking a firsthand look from the inside. If you ever attend a...
In thessalonians the context of the discussion is about false teachers and apostates in the congregations.
The apostles acted as a restraint during their lifetime.... but after they were all gone, no one could restrain the tide of apostasy within the christian congregations. "Wicked men and...

So what you thought as a 13 yr old is very different to what think now.
There is a good reason why very few young people get baptised as jw's.
It seems that your understanding back then was not complete if you took it to mean that you were not good enough and Jehovah did not want you. He...
If you got that far as to address baptism questions with the elders and they told you that you have not spent enough time in the ministry to be baptised, what did you do about it?
Jesus is called 'The Word'.... so yes, he can also be the trumpet of God because a trumpet is used to sound an important message....Jesus had an important message to share when he was on earth and we continue to sound that message today.
You put us wherever you want to put us.
The so-called catholic church fathers murdered fellow believers to
