Subject: How do we preach the Gospel? |
Bible Note: Congrats my friend. This time you got me down to the word "impaled." My Jesus was NOT "impaled." You appear to be a learned person. Perhaps you missed the definition of this word in your learning. 1 : to join (coats of arms) on a heraldic shield divided vertically by a pale 2 a : to pierce with or as if with something pointed; especially : to torture or kill by fixing on a sharp stake b : to fix in an inescapable or helpless position. This is not how Christ died! Perhaps your learning is from others who have little or no faith in the "LIVING WORD OF GOD" I note that although you have a total of 20 posts on this forum, you have not taken the time to create a personal profile. Would you care to state your position as to where your belief or disbelief in God, His Son and His word is concern? In skimming your posts, I see the answer to my previous question. I see such a mindless confusion that there is no doubt that you are a JW. You probably won’t admit it, but I am sure dear brother that you have come to this forum because you are looking for truth. Deep down, you know that what you have been taught is incorrect. Or, at the very least, you have a doubt thereof. Open your mind and heart and He WILL come in. This forum will assist even the JW, if the person’s heart is open to truth, and allows assistance. If however you are a devout JW. You are probably here to spread your confusion. Keep in mind dear soul; Mat 18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea. And if you don’t believe in the Word as the living word of God, keep this in mind; if I am wrong and you are right, what will I have lost. However, if I am right about the Word being God breathed, and you are wrong, you will loose your eternal soul. That’s strong language. But it is FACT… I'm not that familiar with JW. I will NOT be misled. I am only human and I know that even I can get confused and weak. What I have heard from JW is "HOGWASH." Forgive me, but diplomacy is not my strong point. George |
