    Ok, so I have the bible highlights talk this week.

    exodus 1-4 I think?

    I would love to drop a thought provoking comment into my talk... Any suggestions?

    So far I have been thinking of showing how violent god was to the Egyptians. It shows that it seems to be ok to return violence for violence if someone hurts you... Although didn't Jesus say to turn the other cheek?

    But I guess it's ok if god wants to come up with all those crazy ways to inflict pain on unbelievers?

    you are going to inflict pain on BELIEVERS if you dont look at your schedule real quick.

    if the WT material is not pain enough, you are in a stuck in a [time]rut, -- a few weeks as a matter of fact.

    ask the question: 7:19 says all water, including that in pots and pans was turned into blood. but 7:22 shows the magicians did the same thing.

    question: where did they got the water, if moses had turned it ALL red already? bad proofreading by moses? oh yeah, they dug wells,? well, well,

    8:11 --- the frogs will turn away from you[pharao], but

    in 8:13 -- the frogs did DIE- from the houses, the --.yards.-- verse 14: --piling them in heaps on the land. so:

    why did Moses promise the frogs "will TURN AWAY" but they died and rotted instead? moses a false prophet too?

    So: here are questions we can ask Moses when we meet him in the resurrection that will come with the paradise so ssooonn. and

    after he explains these discrepencies. we can explain to him

    the overlapping generation in 3 groups. he will be lapping it up.

    stuckinarut - Go with the "False Prophet" theme and PLEASE quote

    (Deuteronomy 18:22) Likewise, if a prophet makes a prophecy

    in the name of YHWH that does not come to pass,

    that is another sign that he is not commissioned of YHWH

    and that the people need not fear the false prophet.

    Show how to identify a False Prophet. Show the scriptures about

    how in the last days many false prophets will arise. Show how anyone

    claiming to be the sole channel of communication betwen mankind and God

    is usurping the position of Jesus Christ as the only mediator is

    "standing in the Holy Place" and is "the man of lawlessness" (look that up )

    1Timothy 2:5 - 6

    5 For there is one God and one intermediary between

    God and humanity, Christ Jesus, himself human,

    6 who gave himself as a ransom for all,

    revealing God’s purpose at his appointed time.

    Read scriptures about One Hope, One baptism, one body of Christ.

    Ephesians 4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as you also

    were called in one hope of your calling;

    5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism,

    6 one God and Father of all, who is over all,

    and through all, and in us all. These texts illustrate how any

    False Prophet, or organization claiming there are different classes

    or people or different hopes , and who sets themselves up with a

    special ruling class and tells you not to partake of the emblems and

    makes false predictions in the name of God, is a False Prophet.

    See if anyone notices.

    For f**k''s sake! Stop doing talks!

    Who do you think you are? Some sort of super-clever jw? You're not.

    You are a hypocrite.

    Step down and stop thinking you are somehow clever and special.

    How about standing up for something you believe in? Or do you want to be seen as a good brother at the hall, while at the same time being an cool insider on this forum?

    Wow Tiktaalik...calm down mate...

    sorry you seem to be having a bad day...

    What is wrong with doing this? No dont answer that... you have made your point clear.

    But mate, dont go around making rash comments or passing judgements about circumstances you are not aware of. If you dont agree with my thread, simply dont contribute to it. It doesnt seem to have upset others.

    I hope you have a better day tomorrow.

    You ask what's wrong with doing this?

    Well, apart from the hypocrisy, and that's a pretty big matter to start with, it's a total waste of time.

    Do you think that with your cleverly planted and thoroughly disguised apostate ideas you will wake a few of the congregation up? You won't.

    You are preaching to this forum, not to those in your congregation.

    If you really wanted to have the chance of waking a few up you would step down from your positions at the hall and withdraw from doing any talks. It's called fading.

    Its a tough thing to fade while you're standing on the platform in front of the whole congregation, showing off.
