    Can a person be a Christ-follower without falling in lock-step with the institutional church?

    Choosing Between Beliefs and Family

    I love the double standards of the Watchtower. But that's EXACTLY what happens to a Jehovah's Witness if they decide that their worship is "unacceptable". They are forced to choose between unacceptable beliefs and family. If you leave, say goodbye to family and friends.

    Happy Armageddonversary to the Jehovah’s Witnesses

    I've been witnessing to Witnesses for 35 years. Usually only those already questioning willlusten and dialogs. But those like Kiew are too brainwashed to see the Truth. Others like Aunty Jane have too many years invested for them to walk away.

    Happy Armageddonversary to the Jehovah’s Witnesses

    And you probably won't. They no longer engage with me, preferring to ignore my posts and comments. So I'll just keep posting and commenting. They accuse me of having an agenda, as if they don’t. I mean after all, why are they here? Why is anyone here?

    Happy Armageddonversary to the Jehovah’s Witnesses

    From 1966 to 1975, the Watchtower regularly implied that Armageddon would arrive in 1975. However, ask one of Jehovah's Witnesses about this date and they will invariably deny there ever being such statements. This year marks 50 years since JWs predicted the end asxwe know it forc1975.

    Israel Blinded

    Certainly, what God has abundantly recorded about natural Israel and His covenant with her requires thorough examination by those who have entered into a covenant with Him through sacrifice. Israel has failed to recognize that Elijah represents the Church, especially in this final phase of the...

    Is Hell a place of torment?

    This text is part of a parable: the story of the rich man and Lazarus. We understand that the rich man symbolizes the Jewish nation. At the time this parable was told, and for a long period before, the Jews lived in luxury every day, being the favored recipients of God's blessings. Lazarus...

    Christ Died for All

    Well, I never said "all will automatically be saved." I do believe ALL will be given the opportunity to be saved. Well, if they're dead, why bother to raise them only to put them back in the grave or if you're a proponent of hellfire and brimstone, to torture them for all eternity? Which begs...

    In the book of Revelation it mentions 'a little season' twice.

    They are the same words, meaning a limited time, but they do not refer to the same thing. Rev 6:11 speaks of the death and resurrection of the Church. Rev 20:3 speaks of the time between Satan is let loose to deceive the nations.

    Mega-Church Vs Small-Church

    "For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.” - Matthew 18:20 That's the church, not some guy in a robe or wearing a collar, not in some fancy building with a steeple or a cross on the door, but the people. Individuals are the church. Yeah, like...
