Thirdwitness:
The 40 year desolation of Egypt never happened because ;Pharoah and the Egyptians repented in sackcloth and ashes. (Can you say that with a straight face.) Proof that it happened:
Jehovah prophecied ;a 40 year desolation at the hands of Neb.
Bm chronicle tells of Neb's campaign against Egypt in his 37th year just after the prophecy.
Except for the fact that history shows us that this never happened. And then, we DON`T have to "admit" that we believe more in secular history than the Bible (which is an admission you would love to get from us, because of jw-lurkers reading these pages, who, if we said "we believe the secular sources over the Bible" would turn away from us filthy apostate scum and go back to be unpaid workers/robots for your drenched-in-blood Watchtower Society), because the Bible tells us that Yahweh occasionally retracts his prophecies!
"On occasion, I decree for some nation, for some kingdom, that I will tear up, knock down, destroy, but if this nation, against which I have pronounced sentence, abandons its wickedness, I then change my mind about the evil which I had intended to inflict on it . On another occassion, I decree for some nation, for some kingdom, that I will build up and plant, but if that nation does what displeases me, refusing to listen to my voice, I then change my mind about the good which I had intended to confer on it " (Jeremiah 18:7-10).
(thanks to Leolaia for the verse).
So, jw-lurkers, Thirdwitnoid, like the snake he is, is presenting you with a false dilemma! It is NOT the case that you "either believe the prophecy was fulfilled or you deny the Bible".
This has been explained to you a hundred times now, 3rdwitnoid. When is it going to penetrate your thick skull? Never, I assume. I also assume that you are one of those super-egos that will just stick around and hash up the same old crap until people stop replying,you know, I bet you are one of those retards that believes that if they can GET THE LAST POST, then they have won the discussion. I have met JW-psychopaths like that before. Now, if you please, answer the questions raised by Alan F earlier in the thread, or actually try to respond to Leolaias arguments. If you don`t/ can`t, you will have exposed yourself like a true ûntermensch, intellectually, and it will be plain for everyone to see. This is not witnoids you are preaching to here, you know, buddy-boy.
