Quote (david @ Nov. 30 2012,14:51)You are exactly wrong–JW's seem to hate psychiatrists or psychologists, and therefore are much less likely to take things like prescription medications than the average person.  They say that psychiatrists use “human wisdom,” and they are generally shunned.  In fact, they are told to turn to God and pray for h…[Read more]

God also works with nature.One example is disease caused by vitamin deficiency.I have been led to a cure for somebody with that by God.

Quote (david @ Nov. 30 2012,14:34)Hi bjee,I believe in and understand the placebo effect if that is what you are saying.  You said faith healing is exactly as it says, faith healing.  If the person has faith or belief that they will be healed, they are much more likely to feel better or heal themself. As t8 recently said, belief is powerful.   An…[Read more]

I do see what you are saying. Can you tell me more about this spiritual Jihad? I remember reading about that years ago but I can't remember what exactly, and it is never the same when you read things off websites, it is better to actually ask someone in person (or should say over – over the net!)And thank you. I love you Asana. That warmed my…

David, seeing that you are i think a JW, let me ask you something:How come that JWs have the highest rate of mental illness apparently? Is it because, in one of the JW magazines, people were advised to go and see their GP when suffering from depression etc and to 'take a Prozac' instead of turning to God?Sad David, really sad.Perhaps you should…[Read more]

David you are misunderstanding. I agree with you Gene, well said.And Richtruner, I agree too.Faith healing is exactly as it says -> faith healing.It is when the power of above comes upon a man and they are then given the ability to heal another, even without them knowing.Jesus said that if you had faith the size of a mustard seed, that you could…[Read more]

Terrarica, let me ask you something and please answer it with a yes or a no:1) Are you your word?2) Are you your wisdom?If you can't answer that with a yes or a no, just say so.

Terraricca,'In the beginning of old', well God does not have a beginning. Wisdom did not either for God always had wisdom.When God said 'let there be light' there was light, therefore light was brought forth, in both wisdom and word.When you speak, you are bringing forth your word – 'figuratively giving birth to it if it is your first uttered…[Read more]

Terraricca, wisdom is a part of God.Are you saying that wisdom is not a part of God? Are you saying that God does not have wisdom?If you and others are saying that in John 1:1. wisdom is Jesus, then are you saying that wisdom was 'a god'? really?In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God…not 'a god'.

Here is some verses:Mark 9,”And if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go to hell, to the unquenchable fire. And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life lame than with two feet to be thrown into hell. And if your eye causes you to sin,…[Read more]

Quote (Guncher @ Nov. 29 2012,02:18)Today I asked some fellow believers about eternal torment for unbelieversI posed a hypothetical story. A king has a subject who steals a bowl of fruit from him, so as a punishment , he has them burned with a hot iron for the rest of their livesMy friends thought that that was terrible and asked where the king…[Read more]

Okay, over to you all now!

It is the eternal spirit which is 'with God' and 'IS God' which is eternal and does God's works.This is what Jesus said also “The Father who dwells 'in me' does his works.”Jesus said “It is the Spirit which gives life – these words which I speak to you, they are SPIRIT and they are life”.”So shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth: it…[Read more]

Okay, another post or two and then I should be done, sorry! I have just been thinking so much, and these are my notes on my computer as I go. The eternal spirit of God is what exists and has done eternally, it is the same spirit which was in Jesus and is in the world today. In John 3:34, it is said, 'For HE WHOM GOD HAS SENT UTTERS THE WORDS OF…[Read more]
