That's right! I am still single because I have high expectations. Not for the man though, but for myself.

I once dated (and engaged) to a doctor who earned over 200k with a beach house, and another tri-level home in a wealthy part of city and who could give me the 'world' with just a smile as he put it.

Guess what? I decided I rather struggle and become my own "doctor". Instead of wearing a t-shirt that says "I married a doctor", I decided to wear "I am a doctor". Damnit.

Now, If I saw a future with him, maybe that would be a different case. But, I did not. But, anyway, I am a girl of different breed--more like the masculine side of me. I did not want to marry until i had something to offer or contribute or at least feel financially and (satisfactorily) ready.

However, it is a different story tho in many parts of the world where women have very little to no other options BUT to seek and marry a wealthy fellow, or at least one with sustainable source of income.

I read something new in the book of Job.

There, its intriguing to learn to about God asks his servant where he was when He founded the earth? Or, who is this one speaking without knowledge?

Very intriguing.

Back in my Christian days I used to respect the JW church, until I did a background check and found out that they were a bunch of loons (and not the good kind).

List of Failed Predictions:

1877: Christ's kingdom would hold full sway over the earth in 1914; the Jews, as a people, would be restored to God's favor; the "saints" would be carried to heaven.

1891: 1914 would be "the farthest limit of
the rule of imperfect men."

1904: "World-wide anarchy" would follow the end of the Gentile Times in 1914.

1916: World War I would terminate in Armageddon and the rapture of the "saints".

1917: In 1918, Christendom would go down as a system to oblivion and be succeeded by revolutionary governments. God would "destroy the churches wholesale and the church members by the millions." Church members would "perish by the sword of war, revolution and anarchy." The dead would lie unburied. In 1920 all earthly governments would disappear, with worldwide anarchy prevailing.

1920: Messiah's kingdom would be established in 1925 and bring worldwide peace. God would begin restoring the earth. Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and other faithful patriarchs would be resurrected to perfect
human life and be made princes and rulers,
the visible representatives of the New Order on earth. Those who showed themselves obedient to God would never die.

1922: The anti-typical "jubilee" that would
mark God's intervention in earthly affairs
would take place "probably the fall" of 1925.

1924: God's restoration of Earth would begin "shortly after" October 1, 1925. Jerusalem would be made the world's capital. Resurrected "princes" such as Abel,
Noah, Moses and John the Baptist would give instructions to their subjects around the world by radio, and airplanes would
transport people to and from Jerusalem
from all parts of the globe in just "a few hours".

1938: Armageddon was too close for marriage or child bearing.

1941: There were only "months" remaining until Armageddon.

1942: Armageddon was "immediately
before us."

But you know, when your prophecies fail... Redefine success.

Ken4Christ:
I am rather bothered by the fact that more people are giving the JW attention these days than it was years before. I don't blame them totally for the success they are recording. It is because Christians have refused to go out and preach the gospel as they should. If we don't tell people the truth, someone will tell them a lie. And we have given a very good opportunity to the JW to propagate their lies.

Before you raise your hand for them, let me ask you one question. Have you personally taken time to study the Bible for yourself? Don't gamble with your life. You have only one life to live.

The JW claims to proclaim the good news. But Jesus has no place in their good news. What then is the message of good news they share? They say it is the good news of announcing God's Kingdom. This is not the good news. The problem mankind has is the sin problem. The Bible says all have sinned and falling short of the glory of God. The sin problem led to sickness, poverty and death. So, how does announcing God's Kingdom help the sick man? How does announcing God's Kingdom help those that are Laden with the guilt of sin?

Let me tell us what the good news is all about that a Jehovah witness will not tell you. The good news is that God sent his Son, Jesus to die for your sins. The other side of the good news is that God raised him up from the dead to justify you. So, anyone who believes in what he did and receive him as Lord and personal Saviour will be saved. This is the good news. But the JW will never tell you this. There intention is actually to take people's attention away from the salvation God provided through Jesus into meaningless messages that excludes Christ. Jesus says, I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the father except by me.

Read the book of Acts thoroughly, the good news the early Apostles preached was Christ. The good news is the good news about JESUS and not about God's Kingdom. God's Kingdom is no longer a news. Every one that accepts Jesus as Lord and personal Saviour is already in God's Kingdom. Colossians 1:13 says he has already translated us into the kingdom of his Son. It is no longer a promise. If you accept Jesus as your Lord and personal Saviour, you automatically become a part of God's Kingdom.

When Jesus comes Into your life, he takes away the guilt of your sins. The good news is that he also took your sickness away. 1 Peter 2:24 says by his stripes, you were healed. If you fall sick, you can be healed in Jesus name. The good news is that Jesus is coming back to take the faithful Saints home. He said in John 14:2-3. 'In my Father's house, are many mansions. If it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you unto myself, that were I am there ye may be also '

The Jehovah witness will not preach all these good news of Jesus to you. There motive is to tell you how you can be accepted by Jehovah without knowing Jesus. Remember, Jesus said, ' No one comes to the father without him. Jesus is the answer to the world. What the world needs is JESUS. Jehovah is the one that sent Jesus and urges all to believe in Jesus.

If Jesus is not the center of your evangelical message, then what good news are you proclaiming? The Jehovah witness will tell you to just try and keep God's commandments to be saved. If keeping God's commandments is what is needed to be saved, then it will not be necessary for Jesus to have come. But the Bible says that sinful man cannot please God. Even the Jews that were given the Law of Moses could not faithfully keep God's commandments. So, what makes you think you can do it?

What you need first is a new heart or a new life which is available for everyone that receives Jesus as Lord and personal Saviour.

So, don't listen to their lies. They are not Christians. They disguise as Angeles of light. They are wolves in sheep's clothing. They try to console themselves by claiming they are been persecuted. If they see real persecution, they will flee. Have they ever been beheaded? Has any of their members been burnt alive? Check the Bible, the reason for persecution is that the church preached Jesus. Acts 4:18.

If you deny Jesus in your message, you have also denied God. He sent Jesus so we can believe in him.

Friends don't be deceived by the Jehovah witness. They don't have any good news. The good news is all about Jesus. The bad news is that all who reject the Salvation offered freely through Christ will face the wrath of God. They will spend eternity in the lake of fire. Revelation 20:10-15. Once again, don't gamble with your life. Read the Bible for yourself. You will find out the truth that salvation is only in Christ Jesus.

Your experience is heartwarming.
I went to a private specialist hospital and was calm the whole time. A doctor's bedside manner is extremely important. I had to call our family doctor for a recommemdation and was glad I did. He gisted with me throughout the entire procedure and was professional. I went for a follow up sometime afterwards.

An observation:
I was to have a tooth removed initially at the General Hospital believing they at least had competent specialists there. The dentist that examined me wasn't gentle and I felt like a miniature ice-pick-axe was used on me like I was mined.

I never went there again.
