  I shall seek to annhiliate all the nations that are coming against Jerusalem.--------Zech. 12:9

  Translate:

  We shall seek to annhiliate (kill; wipe out) all the nations people that are coming against Jerusalem Watchtower/religions.

  Slightly Paraphrased (in parentheses):

  Why does (the watchtower god)"seek to annhiliate all the nations"?

  Because they persistently oppose the Messianic Kingdom.

  For harassing and persecuting God's people, they stand condemned.

  Soon Satan's earthly agents (WT, et.al) will undertake a final attack on God's true worshippers (that's probably some of you) which will lead to the world situation described in the bible as Har-Magedon.

  Sounds like Jehovah fucked up somewhere where most of his creation oppose him. Now he has to start all over AGAIN! Geez, didn't the flood teach gawd anything? It's so simple from his viewpoint: if god messes up, all he has to do is destroy it and start over again and again and again.

  You all may be sarcastic about it...but I think you are going to see something very twisted coming out of the Hate Crimes bill.

  There is a sleight of hand trick being played.

  It's amazing how quickly you forget how inward looking the WTS really is.

  Billions of people are going to be destroyed at Armageddon just because the United Nations has turned against the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society? I bet you Jim Jones and David Koresh spouted similar skewed nonsense.

  of course, being a spiritual book, destruction COULD have a double meaning. After all, Origen is translated in Reader's Digest's The Bible Through the Ages as writing "The Scriptures were composed through the Spirit of God, and have both a meaning which is obvious and another which is hidden from most readers. The inspired meaning is not recognized at all—only by those who are gifted with the grace of the Holy Spirit in the word of wisdom and knowledge."

  I figure that repentance to the new equates to destruction of the old. It works for me, in my honest opinion.
