Sorry, I could only make it to page 3 then I could not take the nonsense anymore. WOW its amazing how they start twisting things to suit their own path. :crazy
Try growing up in that church.
 
JW's sometimes don't even know what they believe. The regular doctrines on military service, there not being a hell, but a common grave, which I argue that we all have a common grave, but our eternal spirit goes to either heaven or hell. Blood transfusions they do not believe in. I believe in the blood transfusion of Jesus life blood. It is very important to keep sound doctrine as in Timothy. So I leave everyone with this:

1 Timothy 4:1-5
1. I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom:
2. Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.
3. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers;
4. and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.
5. But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.
 
I seem to recall a child dying because the parents refused to allow a liver transplant as they need blood for that.

That child was a martyr for the cause of an earthly, temporal kingdom. That child is at the feet of Jesus Christ, and is better off where it is at, without going through hell on earth living a false doctrine inevitably going to the lake of fire with all the others that believe and practice a lie. I work with a few kids at dairy queen that are in a JW family. You bet I preach to them. You bet I love them as brothers. I am my brother's keeper and do not want their blood on my hands. They have gotten tracks from me and a card from my church asking them if they would want to try something different. Their mom tore it up and threw it in the trash. Talk about beating the servants that the Lord sends into the vineyard. Hey, God is going to work on them. If it doesn't work, my conscience is clear. Praise Jesus.

1 John 1:9 He who says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness until now.
 
To go on a side road here, why do JW's always depict Jesus and the apostles in pictures with perfectly styled moderately length slightly waved hair? As a matter of fact, the Mormons do the same thing with their own version, and even the Catholics depict Jesus yet another way. I can always tell a JW from a Mormon from a Catholic Jesus by the way he wears his hair! :D

you know i cant recall. i would have to get a hold of the watchower and awake, wait check the link in the first post.
 
Jw's say only 144,000 will be taken to heaven and that 144,000 will rule over all the other JW's left here on earth. I once heard a JW leader kind of like a preacher but they did not call them that. Anyway he said that it is better not to be one of the elect, and that staying here on earth was a far more exciting place to be??? There outlook is strange to me but you have to give them credit, they knock on doors.. One last thing, if and when they come knocking on your door> A little hint address your questions about their faith to the second person, not the main talker. the second is in traning most of the time... Frist hand experence..
