Do you think applying this verse would help marriages last? Read Matthew 5:28.

First Time I Have Seen This, Still Very Appropriate Though!

Naomi, which was my precisely my point on 27/10 @ 19.25

Plenty of marriages breakdown because of religion!

True - and some with one half of the partnership a Jehovah's Witness - although I expect Goodlife thinks that's ok.

Interestingly membership of Jehovahs in the States declined from 1.4 million to 1.3 million, 1990 to 2001.....whereas Catholics were up significantly, Protestants a small increase as were minority Christians and those of no religion doubling to nearly 30 per cent of the population. Cuny.edu stats......and this was on the page too.

Looks like Goodlife has some explaining to do as to why his sect is failing both in membership and divorce. Am I surprised - No.

Let see if you can see the different between spiritually minded people and spiritually dead person.
To be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life ........says the apostle Paul. (Romans 8:6)

So with those words, the apostle was pointing out that being a spiritual person is more than a matter of personal preference or inclination.

If for the body to be constantly nourished by breathing, drinking and eating.

So there is something far more essential for continuance of life, It says Happy are those conscious of their spiritual need”!—Matthew 5:3.Now remember spiritually minded man or woman.

Do not severely criticize an older man. To the contrary, entreat him as a father, younger men as brothers, older women as mothers, younger women as sisters with all chasteness. (1 Timothy 5:1, 2)

Do not these words of Paul to Timothy reflect a wholesome respect for womankind? Paul assigned to men and women.

He also wrote, there is neither slave nor freeman, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one person in union with Christ Jesus.—Galatians 3:28.
I think you lack even the most basic spiritual nourishment.

But sill whatever experience you gained from life time will tell, always need to remember that this world belonging to Satan (1 John 5:19)

what's that drivel got to do with divorce rates? Why is the rate of Jehovahs in the States above the national average? We have our theories but want the answer from someone on the inside......come on, man up, goodlife.

agchristie Jesus said that you could tell false religion from true religion ‘by its fruits’—by what its members do. He also said: “Every tree not producing fine fruit gets cut down and thrown into the fire.” (Matthew 7:15-20)

God’s Word urges us to flee from religion that bears bad fruit and thus faces destruction.(Revelation 18:4)

Who united international brotherhood of Christians practices such love? Who refuse to kill those of their own religion or anyone else (1 John 3:10-12.)

Who have the reputation of bearing that “fine fruit.” All over the globe, in more than 238 lands, (Isaiah 2:4)

Who shown by their obedience to Christ’s command to preach the “good news” of God’s Kingdom worldwide. (Matthew 24:14)

Who It directs people to the only One capable of solving mankind’s problems. Soon that One will bring about an entirely new world. (Mat 24:14

Get you self a good Bible and read it,and not what I say or any body else.

here's a counter argument on JW claims that divorces are rocketing. At times, goodlife, 'your central planners,' those who brain-wash and control what you minions are supposed to say, are worse than Nazi or Russian communist propaganda merchants......

goodlife - "Get you self a good Bible ..."

Is there a bad Bible then?

Where can I get one?

DTCwordfan

For once, with this statement, //God’s Word urges us to flee from religion that bears bad fruit and thus faces destruction.(Revelation 18:4) //, you have never spoken a truer word when it comes to Jehovah's......

andy-hughes

goodlife - "... read it,and not what I say or any body else."

Does that mean you are going to stop posting on here then - if every message you deliver is already in the bible?

It seems to be given the amount of text you cut and paste.

Perhaps you are actually superflouous in spreading the word of your faith?

Just a thought.

naomi, andy, agc will all like this one:

VUL/ DCT/ AH@ Are you the type of person that God would choose to do the work he wants done in the earth today? If so, it means that you must be prepared to be viewed as a fool by the world.

The wisdom of this world is foolishness with God,” the Bible says. (1 Corinthians 3:19)

So to be a successful servant of Jehovah God you must be willing to proceed in a way that will make you seem foolish from the world’s standpoint.

Are there historical examples to show that not only were God’s servants viewed as foolish by people of the world but the wisdom of the world was also foolishness to God?

DTCwordfan

Cut the rubbish and get back to answering your thread.....there are questions that you are evading as they are uncomfortable and what we have surfaced undermines all that garbage that you have been receiving from the Tower.

Goodlife, //Get you self a good Bible and read it,and not what I say or any body else. //

But all bibles are written by somebody else so not much point in taking your advice, is there.

Hypognosis

Based on the above, I can only assume that it is either inability to communicate with one another which is behind all these JW divorces.

Either that or the boredom of bible quotations, to and fro, in lieu of actual conversation.
