1 | When and where? | Is 11:6 | julcol87 | 237888 | ||
Doc, If you read my profile then you know my husband is a JW and he tells my daughter they will be able to play with all the animals in paradise. I have never been told that, or had even heard of that until he started telling her. And reading these verses, it seems like we are. I'm just wondering if it will be after the rapture, when Christ reigns in the millennium. |

2 | Advice and encouragement | 2 Tim 2:15 | julcol87 | 229475 | ||
Thanks lionheart. I do attend a church, full gospel, and very focused on Christ. My husband and I just hav those moments when our opposite beliefs clash. I get advice and encouragement from my pastor and other brothers and sisters, but I like the advice from my brother and sisters on sbf also. So thanks again. | ||||||

4 | New World Translation | 2 Cor 4:2 | julcol87 | 228659 | ||
BradK, Thanks for helping me with this. Its something that I've been thinking about for a while.. I did ask my pastor and he says the JW's are fairly new, came way after the teachings of Jesus, and are outside of the truth, even though they claim to be "in the truth." Thanks Julia |

6 | hell | 2 Pet 3:9 | julcol87 | 228368 | ||
I agree with you Brad. I told my cousin that the Bible teaches the existence of hell, but I'm sure my husband who is a JW was giving him more reason to believe there is no hell. | ||||||
7 | Different beliefs and salvation | John 3:16 | julcol87 | 228242 | ||
Searcher, Forgive me,ofcourse the disciples aren't for me, everything is for Christ. Ever since I've accepted Christ my family tells me that I've changed, that they see something different in me, something good. So being that I know it's not only I who notice a change, but my family as well, I know the Lord is at work in me and I can witness with my life as a start. |

8 | Different beliefs and salvation | John 3:16 | julcol87 | 228238 | ||
Thanks Beja, I know we've discussed this topic before, but when he goes "out to service" and I'm at home, I feel like he's doing the right thing and I haven't made any disciples yet. | ||||||
9 | symbolic/literal scriptures? | Jer 32:35 | julcol87 | 227523 | ||
I understand what your talking about now, and I guess overtime I'll be able to tell right away, what scripture is symbolic and what is literal. I understand symbolic pretty clearly about the 30 ft scroll. So literal would be versus such as these: Mathew 25:41, 13:41-42 2 peter 3:7 If I'm understanding it correctly.. Thanks |

10 | Easter | Bible general Archive 4 | julcol87 | 227428 | ||
Thank you to both Brads. I often think about how much better and easier it would be if my husband and i had the same beliefs, to avoid any disagreements when it comes to talking about God's word. It's somewhat hard, and i feel that we become a little distant from each other when God's word is brought up, for us that is, because we believe total opposite from each other. The pastors wife told me at our church that it's not supposed to be easy being a christian and it's not going to be easy either. I felt pretty encouraged... But i know she's speaking the truth. But i am not alone, because God comforts me and strengthens me and trust in him that he will see me through anything. Thank you all for your help and advice. |

11 | What should I say? | Acts 20:20 | julcol87 | 227103 | ||
lionheart, Thanks for your response. Like i mentioned to Beja, I was told the Jehovah's Witnesses beliefs were not right, and that they twist scriptures around, especially the one's showing that Jesus is God, and to them the Holy Spirit is Gods active force. I really don't like how they don't acknowledge Jesus as being more than just a man. They believe he was the "greatest man" who ever lived. Besides seeking advice from all who will help me, i know that God is the only way for everything. But please put me in your prayers. Thanks Julia |

12 | What should I say? | Acts 20:20 | julcol87 | 227102 | ||
Beja, Thank you for your response.I think i've been caught up on this one aspect of preaching door to door since i've started attending church in 2010. See my parents attended a full gospel church up till i was 11, and i'm now 23. This is the first time I have ever read the bible, and since my husband has more knowledge than me in the bible he wants to push his beliefs on me so that maybe i will follow him. When he first started explaining his beliefs to me, i didn't know anything, and what he said made sense to me but i was told that the Jehovah's Witness's beliefs aren't right. So up to this day, i'm still trying to learn and understand the things of God, and what he wants from me as his follower. Thanks again. Julia |

13 | preaching the Gospel? | Eph 2:8 | julcol87 | 227011 | ||

14 | preaching the Gospel? | Eph 2:8 | julcol87 | 226973 | ||
Beja, Thanks for replying. My husband says that it is a requirement to preach the gospel, because this is the commandment Jesus left for his disciples. I agree that we should preach the gospel, but he says that Jesus sent his disciples in two's, so that is why his religion goes door to door in two's, and he believes that's how everyone should do it. I don't totally agree with him on that, and think that we can preach the gospel anywhere, it doesn't necessarily have to be door to door. And That's when i feel somewhat discouraged, because I am new to God's word, and he says they are the only one's who are true followers of God because they don't take part in pagan holidays, they preach door to door, and don't believe in the trinity. He talks to me as if he feels bad for me because he thinks I'm lost since I am not part of his religion. I don't argue with him anymore about our different beliefs, I'm trying to win him over with my love. Thanks Julia |
