My apologies to all I have offended some on this site and I am truly sorry for that. I wish now that I had never identified myself as one of Jehovah's Witnesses on this site, for fear that someone would dislike me personally and that dislike be contributed to Jehovah righteous organization. Again my humble apologies goes out to everyone especially SOS.
As many know by my profile, I have logged onto this site for some years now,(mostly in the Music-non prince forum) but never have I offended so many as the last thread I posted on, (I generally stay out of the religious forums) believe me when I say that was not my intention to offend. When you carry the name of Jehovah, his servants must always remember that they can bring reproach on Jehovah's name by our own actions, including written comments. I have been a JW for almost 50 years now, needless to say I have had many, many doors slammed in my face, I learned not to take that personally, for it was the message they were rejecting. I have aided into the truth 17 individuals, which shows that Jehovah has blessed my efforts, and I am blessed to be still serving as a elder in one of Jehovah's congregations. I, of all people, should know that this site is not the place to bring and carry Jehovah's name, for Jehovah's spirit will not remain with your comments. I errored in judgement. This offense I have taken personally for that is where it should be, so as a result I will be deleting my account on this site, and focus my ministry in the areas where it should be. Again my humble apologies sincerely goes out to all. jw1914 [Edited 3/19/05 9:15am] [Edited 3/19/05 9:19am] [Edited 3/19/05 9:20am] | |

Your post has given me something to think about jw1914. I have thought in the past when things have got ridiculous on threads is this really worth my while? Am I doing more bad than good?
Bringing reproach on Jehovah’s name and his organisation is the last thing anyone wants. Is it appropriate for Jehovah’s Witnesses to contribute is these type of discussion web-sites? Perhaps there are points for and points against. The unfortunate thing is often miscommunication and understanding. Whilst most on the org are respectful there is an element of intolerance and arrogance. I suppose that is unavoidable in any form of human gathering. The good thing about this type of discussion online is education. There are some who feel it’s all bit of a rant (sometimes of course it is ) and nothing positive is coming out of it i.e. trinity thread. I would disagree. I know from my past experience I learned a lot from these type of discussions before I came into the truth even though I didn’t take part I learned a lot and that pointed me in the right direction. www.watchtower.org As for your account don’t over react. If you no longer want to take part in discussions that is just what to do. | |

We all have our part to play... and it's up to us to decide where & how, w/ Jehovah's guidance. Because if your left eye is making you stumble... you know the rest.
Take it easy. But not too easy! | |
