How can this scripture be explained if there is more than one faith that leads to the kingdom of God ?

How can Christianity be considered one faith ?

2 Corinthians 11:23-28 NWT

23Are they ministers of Christ? I reply like a madman, I am more outstandingly one: in labors more plentifully, in prisons more plentifully, in blows to an excess, in near-deaths often. 24By Jews I five times received forty strokes less one, 25three times I was beaten with rods, once I was stoned, three times I experienced shipwreck, a night and a day I have spent in the deep; 26in journeys often, in dangers from rivers, in dangers from highwaymen, in dangers from [my own] race, in dangers from the nations, in dangers in the city, in dangers in the wilderness, in dangers at sea, in dangers among false brothers, 27in labor and toil, in sleepless nights often, in hunger and thirst, in abstinence from food many times, in cold and nakedness.

28Besides those things of an external kind, there is what rushes in on me from day to day, the anxiety for all the congregations. 29Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is stumbled, and I am not incensed?

How is accepting Jesus & being saved any sign of faith or courage ?

If all you have to do is accept then why do you need to stand up for what you believe ?

Matthew 6:9"This, then, is how you should pray: "'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,

Many Christians do not use Gods name , Jehovah for several reasons but no matter the reason how can Gods name be hallowed if it is not used ?

If God is real to you , should you not consider God in all the decisions you make ?

What other ways show God is real to you ?

Matthew 6:22 NWT 22“The lamp of the body is the eye. If, then, your eye is simple, your whole body will be bright

What does it mean ?

What should be the focus ? Is the answer in Verse 33 ?

If I have added you as a friend it is because I remember you ,if not I am sorry .

Life is hard with an unbelieving partner .

Has this site became became better or worst for Jehovah's Witnesses ?

If you remember me please add me as a friend.

So as not to break the rules on this site I need to make this a question .

How many where baptized it the convention ?

a. 0

b. 1

c. 97 ?

Second question .

How any attended ?

was it .

d, 0

e. 1

f. 14008 ?

What a wonderful 3 days .

Ps 84:10

10 For a day in your courtyards is better than a thousand [elsewhere].

I have chosen to stand at the threshold in the house of my God

Rather than to move around in the tents of wickedness.

I remember the date well Saturday the 15th of August 2009 around 12 noon at the Keep on the Watch District Convention in Sydney , Australia.

Do you recall when you where Baptized ?

Tonight is my last night in Sydney , I am moving to Brisbane tomorrow .

I will be baptised next month .

I will miss my friends Pestie58 & 1 of a great crowd & my congregation .

I know it is too late to change my mind & next time I talk to you I will be in Brisbane .

My question is how do you say good bye with out tears ?

Hello Brothers & Sisters , It's almost 3am here , I just woke up & have having trouble getting back to sleep .

To those that know me , I miss you all & those I do not know pleased to meet you .

Since starting to go out on field service I found I have little time for this site.

My question is can you share with me what you have done today to draw close to Jehovah ?

Have you had anything encouraging happen lately ?

Agape.

Brother & Sisters .

When I do my prestudy for the Watchtower study , I read it , go through & mark the answers & look up all the scriptures quoted . After i have finished I read through it again & work out a few questions I would like to answer & study it up as best I can trying to find matching scriptures so I can give an answer that is not just reading form the study article .

I find this helps me to understand the study better & get a deeper understanding of the bible.

Do you do this too , can you give me any ideas to improve the way i answer ?

If you are not a Jehovah's Witness please do not waste your time as I really want to hear from those that fully understand what i am talking about

Luke 15:6 And when he gets home he calls his friends and his neighbors together, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost.

What is it referring too ?

Can we help ?

Hebrews 1:6

And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says, "Let all God's angels worship him."

Is God the first born of himself ?

Why would God allow eternal torment in hell to exist just to scare you to worship him ?

Is worshiping God just because you are scared of Hell acceptable worship ?

Dear Brothers & Sisters .

I am not baptized yet , i am an unbaptized publisher . I have become very active in the field service over the last few months. I have had both good & bad experiences .

I am just curious how you personally feel about the responses you get at the door compare to when you first started .

Do you find people where more responsive back in the 60's ,70's ,80, 90, or now ?

Is there a difference ? How is it different ? Do you enjoy it more today than when you first started ?

Thank you & agape.

Brothers , Sisters

I was looking up a scripture to give an answer about preaching & i came across this scripture & have been thinking about it.

1 Tim 2 :3-5

3 For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the healthful teaching, but, in accord with their own desires, they will accumulate teachers for themselves to have their ears tickled; 4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth, whereas they will be turned aside to false stories. 5 You, though, keep your senses in all things, suffer evil, do [the] work of an evangelizer, fully accomplish your ministry.

Do you find this attitude in your preaching work & on this site ?

Today i met a lady in the field service & she asked me for a bible study. I arranged for a Sister to study with her as i lack confidence to study with someone .

I am so happy .

How did you start your first bible study & how did you feel ?

Or what the attendance was ?

The last few questions i asked where not against the rules but got violated , I then blocked several people whom i know are apostates and asked the same question & not had a violation.

I don't care if my account gets deleted , i can always start again & you will soon know who i am .

The question is have any of you had this problem ?
