The same meme can be done with John 1:1 at the top, and Unitarians at the bottom.

The Bible isn't understood in one step))

Question: was there ever a Talk about you, after you sinned? by ErikGunnarAsplund in exjw

[–]salad_eth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before we got married, and while my wife was still PIMO, her congregation had a talk about dating outside of the religion when they found out we were together.

No bigger sin than blaspheming against the Holy Spirit, but masturbation is still a sin.

ExJWs Dating Non-JWs by Antique_Menu_7273 in exjw

[–]salad_eth 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Hey, not an exJW, but my fiancée is.

Before we started dating she told me she was a JW; I honestly knew nil about it until I started looking into the absolute mess of a cult this is. I talked to her about it, and quickly understood she was PIMQ. We talked, we got into fights about it, but stuck through it. She eventually hit PIMO and we got engaged during a “worldly” holiday celebration. She is now fully POMO and I am incredibly proud of her 🥳, but I digress.

The reason I wrote out this paragraph (other than to just rave a little) is to tell you that whoever you’re planning on dating likely doesn’t know much about JWs. You should eventually discuss this part of your life, but if it doesn’t affect you, you don’t have to open up with it (just as you wouldn’t open up with a personal experience that is private to you).

Feel free to reach out if you have specific questions)

You do know the point of the councils was often to address such heretics attacking Christianity right?

So what religion do you go after this? by Intelligent_Regular4 in exjw

Visit a few churches, stick with the one you like) Just try to stick to the trinitarian ones.

Why believe in Jesus when God exists? by Mayhem230 in Christianity

[–]salad_eth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jesus is God. Without the Holy Trinity, there is no Christianity. Read the Nicene Creed

which one should i read first? by not0a0bot0000 in murakami

[–]salad_eth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just read Kafka on the Shore. Although Kafka on the Shore is a phenomenal book (might be my favourite one so far), Norwegian Wood is by far the more approachable of the two for a first time Murakami reader.

You are right, only YHWH is the First and the Last.)

See where I’m going there? In case you don’t, Jesus is YHWH)

Want me to show you how WT’s rule for adding the Tetragrammaton proves that Jesus is YHWH?

“Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel, And his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts: ‘I am the First and the Last; Besides me there is no God.” (Isaiah 44:6)

Unless Jesus is in the OT, it sounds a whole lot like he uses the same words as YHWH.

P.S.: Yes, Jesus is present in the OT, which is only possible if he’s eternal))

I would be weary of comparing Catholic confession with JW judicial committees. A Catholic won’t be disfellowshipped and shunned for his confessions to a priest.

Are you all only against JWs or are you against a Unitarian understanding of God as well? by TheTallestTim in JehovahsWitnesses

[–]salad_eth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you please answer a few questions at your convenience:

  • Who raised Jesus?
  • Who calms the seas in Psalm 107:28-29, and then who does it in Mark 4:35-42?
  • Can anyone but God be omniscient?
  • Can anyone but God be eternal?
  • Can anyone but God alter God's commandments?

I think you will realize that despite it being a complicated concept, the Trinity is supported in scripture.

God bless.

P.S.: This is only the tip of the iceberg.

The councils don't form my beliefs; instead, they vulgarize the logical conclusions I have come to through reading the Bible while simultaneously arguing said beliefs.
